V2X/Connected Transportation

August 7, 2024

This report provides an analysis of the current landscape and future outlook of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication technologies outside of 5.9 GHz direct V2X. By examining the definitions, architectures, and functional deployments that comprise this “Beyond 5.9” ecosystem, this document provides insights and guidance for a broad array of stakeholders navigating the complexities of V2X deployment and adoption. The adoption of a diverse, multi-pronged approach to our V2X communications ecosystem will create a foundational baseline that will allow the U.S. to set the standard for creating more expansive, flexible, and interoperable V2X systems at scale. Through widespread V2X deployment, we can achieve improvements in roadway safety and make meaningful progress toward Vision Zero, while fostering a smarter and more efficient transportation system that is safer for all road users.

Let’s Transform the Future Together.

Technology evolves faster than we can imagine the future. Rapidly evolving transportation innovations are being developed and deployed that promise to entirely reshape the way our transportation network operates, facilitating vast improvements to transportation safety and overall mobility. The promise of these innovations is apparent, but the deployment and application of these technologies is not without challenges. While technology disrupts the transportation ecosystem with new innovations and ideas, government, communities, private companies, and researchers must race to catch up to and contend with ideas never thought possible. How do we accelerate change and safely embrace new technology while promoting collaboration across industry to advance shared societal goals? Through nonprofits like the Intelligent Transportation Society of America (ITS America).

ITS America and its members have been at the center of these innovations, advocating for transformational technology to save lives, promote sustainability, and improve access to mobility.

Join us.

As advocates for transportation innovation throughout the world’s largest transportation network, ITS America’s public, private and academic members are dedicated to championing smart mobility strategies to ensure safe and thriving communities.
