An effective transportation system is key to New York's economic viability and quality of life. Moving people and goods in a state whose components range from urbanized centers to rural roadways is a challenge. All aspects of our daily lives are impacted...from our ability to compete in the national and global marketplaces...to how we commute to work or where we buy homes...to the way we work and play. That's why we must utilize existing capacities of New York's transportation infrastructure network to the greatest extent possible. Intelligent Transportation Systems do just that. Being an active Member of ITS-NY will help this effort!

TODAY IS:

NYSDOT and NYSERDA jointly announce funding of $1.6 million for seven cost-shared research projects that reduce congestion and petroleum fuel use and increase the efficiency of New York’s existing transportation systems. These funds will support the development and demonstration of advanced technologies to ease traffic congestion while enhancing the State’s economy and quality of life. The investment, which includes $800,000 of federal funds, will leverage an additional $1.4 million of private-sector funds to provide a total of $3 million of investments.
