Digital Infrastructure
Digitally Transforming the Way We MoveWhy Digital Infrastructure
The passage of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law has renewed investment in our transportation infrastructure – it has over 40 programs to invest in technology – and build a safer system. ITS America leads the way in working with USDOT, its members, and the industry to help public agencies modernize transportation using technology. ITS America launched this campaign to help people understand how digital infrastructure, like data and information systems, is just as important as physical infrastructure, like roads and bridges.
ITS America, our members, and our colleagues work together to spread the message about the importance of digital infrastructure. Working with the USDOT to help support their work and strategies, ITS America has also created working groups that includes private companies, government, nonprofits, and researchers to help provide information to our federal government on how to modernize the transportation system with digital infrastructure.
