Sustainability & Resiliency

November 19, 2021

“In passing the budget reconciliation package, the House of Representatives has taken an important step toward a more sustainable transportation system as well as helping provide more equity and access to people in communities across the country. ITS America and our members have advocated for public transit investment to improve and expand service and providing tax credits to lower the cost of electric vehicles – we are pleased to see these provisions included in H.R. 5376. In addition, the incentive grants for states and cities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions will help move the transportation sector to a cleaner, greener future.”

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.
