V2X & Connected Transportation Committee 


The V2X & Connected Transportation Committee is dedicated to accelerating the safe, secure, and widespread deployment of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) technologies across America’s transportation system. The committee brings together public and private sector leaders, technical experts, and policy advocates to address regulatory barriers, develop practical deployment resources, and champion interoperability across connected vehicle systems. This committee is tasked with advocating for policies which support the deployment of V2X technologies on a scale and addresses topics such as the development and deployment of connected, V2V, V2I, and V2P technologies and innovations. 

2026 Focus Areas 

  • Address regulatory barriers and promote policy harmonization. 
  • Develop practical resources for V2X implementation. 
  • Advocate for interoperability and scalable deployments. 
  • Explore expanded use cases for connected mobility. 

Future of 5.9 V2X Working Group 
This group addresses challenges and opportunities in deploying direct V2X systems using the 5.9 GHz spectrum. It advocates for supportive policies and develops guidance for large-scale implementation. 

Beyond 5.9 V2X Working Group 
The Beyond 5.9 group explores next-generation V2X technologies and networked use cases. It focuses on interoperability and integration with broader connected mobility ecosystems.
