Transport efficiency and safety in the
advanced economies have long benefited from information and
communication technology (ICT). However, these ICT
applications have typically been high-cost, customized
infrastructure systems. Now the era of the Internet, digital
mobile communication, and ‘big data’ analysis has created a
new global potential for less costly and more powerful
‘intelligent transport systems’ (ITS). The World Bank is
supporting client transport agencies in deploying these new
tools, including cloud-based services, open data standards,
and smartphone applications, to more efficiently manage
transportation assets and improve road safety. In the
process, such projects have also demonstrated improvements
in the traveler’s experience and the attractiveness of
public transit. Moreover, the greater potential of the new
technologies to reduce congestion and travel times means
that the new era has also strengthened the potential of ITS
to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, realizing
the potential of ITS in developing countries depends on
improvements in assessment practices to find what works best
and in the data capabilities of domestic institutions.
Significant improvements in these areas are critical to the
success of ITS. |
