3. Where Are We Today?
• 2.5 years since SAFETEA-LU expired
• House and Senate reached an agreement last
October on a six-month extension to March 31, 2012
• 8th extension – expires in 5 days
• Funded at current levels for the full year ($47B)
• Trust funding runs out at year’s end
4. Administration Released
2013 USDOT Budget Proposal
• $478B over six years (50% larger than SAFETEA-LU)
• Significant increase for roads and bridges (34%),
transit (105%) and safety (137%)
• Trust fund shortfall paid for with savings from ramping
down wars in Iraq and Afghanistan
• Major focus on “advancing innovative programs and
technological solutions”
5. Transportation Finally on the
Front Burner in Congress
• Senate: Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st
Century Act (MAP-21)
• House: American Energy and Jobs Infrastructure Act
• House and Senate bills on potential collision course
over funding mechanisms, length of bill, and
treatment of transit UNLESS the House takes up the
Senate bill
6. Senate Bill: Top-line Summary
• Revenue Sources: $109 billion over two years
– Highway Trust Fund + Increase in TIFIA
– LUST Fund Transfer, IRA redistribution, imported
tariffs and the closing of the black liquor loophole
• Policy Framework:
– 87 Highway Programs consolidated/eliminated with
more formula flexibility
– Expedites project delivery; Performance based
– Eliminates earmarks; New Freight Program
– Retains Transit at current levels but creates more
federal and state safety oversight
7. Senate Transportation Bill –
Growing Momentum
• Voted out 74 to 22 on March 14
• Senators’ Boxer and Inhofe are United
• Business, Labor and Transportation Industry are
United
Pressure on the House to Pass a Bill
8. House Bill: Top-Line Summary
• $260 billion over five years ($52 billion / year): consistent
with current funding levels
• Consolidates/eliminates nearly 70 federal programs,
eliminates earmarks
• Expedites project approvals by delegating authority to
states
• Performance measures
• Expands TIFIA program, incentivizes State Infrastructure
Banks, expands tolling authority, and encourages more
private sector participation
9. House Transportation Bill –
Sticking Points
• Revenue Sources: $260 billion over five years
– Highway Trust Fund (HTF), TIFIA, State Infrastructure Banks
– ANWR, oil shale, offshore drilling and Keystone XL pipeline
– General Fund and Federal Pensions
– Alternative Transportation Account - Transit / CMAQ
• House Revolt
– Conservatives opposed $260 billion cost/energy “pay-fors”
– Moderates opposed transit severance from HTF
– Administration issued veto threat
– Bill cannot muster votes for floor passage
– Leadership mulls new package; may take up Senate bill
– SAFETEA-LU expiration date is March 31
10. ITS America Authorization Campaign
Has Been Enormously Successful
• New ITS deployment programs
• Strong planning and performance measures tied to ITS
• ITS called out in every major formula program with ITS
referenced more than 80 times in Senate bill
• Establishes a base for next year, if bills do not pass in
2012
• Enabled by an ITS America Campaign staff of three
11. Be Part of the Solution…
• ITS America-led campaign to champion high-tech
solutions for transportation
– Improved Congressional and media relations
– ITS industry at the table for key legislative debates
• Making our voice heard in the crowded policy
debate
– Call, Write, and Meet with your Congressmen and Senators
• Sponsor the Campaign for Intelligent Transportation
Solutions
12. U.S. DOT Connected Vehicle Program
• Multimodal and Connected
• Vision
To research and facilitate a national,
multimodal surface transportation system
that features a connected transportation
environment around vehicles of all types,
the infrastructure, and portable devices to
serve the public good by leveraging
technology to maximize safety, mobility,
and environmental performance.
Plan developed with full participation by all
surface transportation modal
administrations as well as with significant
interaction with multi-modal stakeholders.

14. Multi-Step Approach
• Step 1 – Accelerate Vehicle-to-Vehicle Safety
– Develop Core Set of Applications
– Conduct Benefits Assessment
– Develop Driver / Vehicle Interface Guidelines
– Define Globally Harmonized Standards
– Assess Security Issues
– Prepare for 2013 NHTSA Agency Decision
• Step 2 – Demonstrate Safety
– Safety Pilot Model Deployment in Ann Arbor, MI
– Major road test and real-world implementation involving
multiple vehicle types and Fully integrated systems and
aftermarket devices
– Testing will also include the prototype security mechanisms and
the certification processes
15. Multi-Step Approach
• Step 3 – Define the System and Establish Testing
Environment
– Completed User Needs identification, Concept of Operations,
Systems Requirements, and System Architecture documents
of the Core System
– Current focus on
Policy
(Governance,
Liability, Privacy)
16. Multi-Step Approach
• Step 4 – Build Vehicle-to-Infrastructure
Safety, Mobility, and AERIS Data
Environments and Applications
– V 2 I for Safety – Accelerate Signal Phase
and Timing (SPAT)-based applications, Signal Systems
Smart Roadside, and transit Transit Management
– Prototype the Data Environment of the Freight
R.E.S.C.U.M.E
future –> all vehicles as probes using ATIS
Open Data and standard interfaces Speed Harmonization
– Prototype, field-test and analyze Mobility
Applications
• Use Open Source software approach
to accelerate deployment
– Define and test AERIS Applications

18. Multi-Step Approach
• Step 5 – Build a Reference Implementation
– 2011:
• Testbeds are up and running with interoperable equipment
in CA, FL, NY, MI, VA, and TN
– 2012-13:
• Reflect the System Architecture
• Utilize Harmonized International Standards
• Implement a Certification Process
• Implement a Governance Process
• Implement a Security Process
19. Multi-Step Approach
• Step 6 – Conduct Regional Pilot Projects
– Started Planning and Stakeholder Involvement in the Theme
• Multiple Implementation Areas
• Opportunity to pilot a variety of applications per a site’s
need - sites choose from a suite of field tested applications
• Seeds Implementation
• Uses Lessons Learned from Safety Pilot
• Builds on a Stakeholder-Defined Architecture
• Accelerates DSRC for Safety
• Leverages Available Wireless Communications for Mobility
and Environment Applications
• Leverages Private Sector Investments Occurring Now
