Who we are 

TTS Italia is the Italian ITS Association. It was founded in 

March 1999 by a group of both public and private 

organisations active in the sector of Intelligent Transport 

Systems (ITS). 

Our mission is to foster the deployment and diffusion of 

ITS in Italy in the most effective manner for users, as we 

believe that ITS Systems represent an essential tools for 

improving the efficiency and safety of Italian transport 

systems, and for protecting the environment. 

Our main priorities are to provide our Associates with adequate instruments and information to 

develop ITS applications as “user-oriented” as possible, and to support institutional bodies in the 

actions of implementation, promotion and diffusion of Intelligent Systems and Services for Transport 

and Safety. 

Our challenge is to make ITS a real opportunity for Italy. For this, we work to clear and precise 

objectives: 

To facilitate the deployment of ITS systems and services in Italy and their market 

penetration 

To increase awareness and spread information about ITS in Italy 

To support National and Local Institutions to define regulations and strategies for the 

ITS sector 

To stimulate discussion of themes of strategic interest with the aim of working 

towards the adoption of a common architecture; 

To provide valuable services to our Associates in order to enhance their knowledge on 

up-to-date business opportunities on ITS 

To sustain collaboration and consensus formation for technical, organisational and 

institutional solutions 

TTS Italia, therefore, proposes itself as a privileged forum at National level for the comparison of 

positions, interests and needs of the various actors which contribute to the development and 

implementation of ITS. 


ITS in Italy 

Italy is one of the European Countries characterised by the highest traffic levels with 947.205 million 

passengers /Km per year. 92,40% of them chooses road transport. Goods transport to more than 50 

Km distance amounts to 211.206 million tons per year and 65,33% is conveyed by road [Source: 

Conto Nazionale delle Infrastrutture e dei Trasporti, data updating 2004]. 

Forecasts show that transport 

demand will increase in the next 

years and the risk is that transport 

costs will become unsustainable. 

The National Plan for Transport and 

Logistics - PGTL, officially issued in 

2001, by the Italian Ministry of 

Infrastructure and Transport, has 

singled out a series of strategic 

measures to fit the National 

Transport System to the new trends 

in travel and transport, in a time 

horizon up to 2010. 

The aim is ensuring to citizens and goods the possibility to travel safely, efficiently and compliantly 

with environment by using all transport modes. All this cannot be reached simply by building new 

infrastructures, but by considering transport as an “integrated system”, where information, 

management and control work in synergy, so optimising the use of infrastructure and logistic 

platforms. 

ITS play a leading role in such a strategic approach. They are the key tool to integrate mobility 

systems and services and to develop new solutions for a better efficiency, productivity and especially 

safety of transport system. 

Trials performed until now in Italy show that ITS are a priority for our economy and competitiveness. 

They make our cities more liveable and they help us to protect our artistic heritage from pollution. 


ARTIST – Italian ITS Architecture 

Promoting the development and the diffusion of ITS on a National level, requires the definition of a 

strategic Framework Architecture providing the guidelines to make the different ITS applications 

integrated and interoperable. For this reason, in 2001, the Italian Ministry of Infrastructure and 

Transport promoted the ARTIST (ARchitettura Telematica Italiana per il Sistema dei Trasporti) 

Project aimed at defining the National ITS Architecture. 

The first Version of the ARTIST Architecture was published in January 2003 

ARTIST main objective is to provide public authorities, standardisation bodies, transport operators, 

infrastructure managers and private companies with general guidelines for steering ITS projects 

towards interoperable solutions compliant with National and European policies. 

On the basis of the stated User Needs, ARTIST defines: 

the necessary services for users; 

the functional, logical and physical relationships among systems; 

information flows; 

The organisational links among the different users (Public and Private Institutions) 

involved in the development and management of ITS 

ARTIST allows to identify the stakeholders and the strategies to be adopted in the whole process of 

collection, processing and data management, which are fundamental for ITS. 

ARTIST is an open Architecture, as the systems and services derived from ARTIST can easily 

integrate new functions and /or update the existing ones, bringing benefits in terms of cost reduction 

and efficiency improvement. The interoperability of components stimulates investments and creates 

the conditions for an open and competitive market, offering lower cost solutions. 

ARTIST is compliant with the European Framework Architecture 

through the thematic Network FRAME-NET and it is strictly 

related to the French National Architecture ACTIF. 

ARTIST is the Answer to the need for a common 

in Italy. 

ITS language 

Links with Europe: The 

Euro-regional Projects 

Italy is involved in the Euro-Regional projects SERTI, CORVETTE and CONNECT. The Italian Ministry 

of Infrastructure coordinates the Italian participation in both projects and is also CORVETTE 

International Leader. In these projects the major Italian motorway and road operators are involved. 

The purpose of such a participation is to improve the quality of the services and to guarantee the 

interoperability of such services across the national borders, with the aim of reducing the number of 

incidents and improving safety. 

SERTI, CORVETTE and CONNECT are co-financed by the European Commission, Directorate General 

Energy and Transport (DG TREN), in the TEMPO Programme (2001-2006). 


ITS for urban traffic management 

Italian Cities are historical cities. 

The problems connected to the 

increasing demand for mobility, 

peculiar to each urban area, are 

then made even graver by the 

structure of our cities which are 

not fit to vehicle traffic. The 

consequence is a negative quality 

of life, in terms of comfort, safety, 

pollution and time loss in 

congestions. 

ITS can contribute to reduce 

significantly these negative effects 

and it is for this reason that the 

majority of the Italian Local 

Administrations has chosen to 

invest in the development of ITS 

applications. All this for the benefit 

of the citizen and the artistic 

estates. 

ITS for urban mobility management are in place in the major 

Italian cities, as Rome, Turin, Naples, Genoa, Florence, 

Bologna, ecc., with significant benefits obtained in several 

cases. In Rome in 1999, the Administration of the City 

promoted the realisation of an Integrated ITS System for 

traffic monitoring and control which core is the is the Mobility 

Control Centre, installed at ATAC (the Agency for the Mobility 

Services of the City of Rome) headquarters. 

The 5T system in Turin is one of the most advanced mobility 

management system in Europe. The system is able to control 

all the mobility issues in the Turin area and has been measured 

to increase Public Transport commercial speed (+ 17%) and to 

reduce Turin citizen travel time (-21%) improving traffic fluidity 

and providing real time information. 


ITS for Public Transport Management 

In Italy, Local Public Transport is a key priority for Local Administrations. Making Public Transport 

more accessible and attracting for users is the first, fundamental step to realise the objectives of a 

sustainable mobility. 

ITS implemented at local level in order to improve service offering, 

show that ITS play an essential role to attain a sustainable 

mobility. ITS brings benefits not only to the citizen, but also to 

market and innovation. 

Relevant best pratices have been realised in many Italian cities as 

Rome, Milan, Turin, Naples, Perugia, Brescia, Florence, Livorno, 

ecc, regarding advanced AVL/AVM systems and innovative 

ticketing, with the aim of making public transport more attractive 

and comfortable for users. 

ITS for Motorway Traffic Management 

Italy has a long tradition concerning ITS for Motorway Traffic 

Management. Motorway operators are actively involved in many 

research and implementation projects at National and European 

level. The objective is that of guaranteeing the full 

interoperability of applications. 

Advanced systems for detecting data flows are installed along 

the whole motorway network. They include: video-cameras, 

inductive loops and ultrasounds and microwave based systems. 

Detected data are transmitted to motorway operators Traffic 

Control Centres, together with data coming from weather 

monitoring systems. 240 monitoring stations are totally installed. 

The control Centres process information and send it to travellers 

through VMS, radio, internet, GSM, etc. 

Traffic Control Centres are connected among 

them and with the CCISS, the National 

Information and Road Safety Coordination 

Centre, through the protocol Datex. 

This ensures information availability 

stretch of the network. 

in each 


One of the key aspects of the Italian motorway network is the diffusion of toll payment systems, 

which is the key element for traffic fluency. In particular the Telepass, operated by Autostrade in Italy 

since 1990, has been a great success: today, the distributed OBU are more than 5 millions and this 

result is due to promotional and development activities parallel to the constant upgrade of 

technologies. The Telepass system dramatically reduces the waiting times of vehicles and 

consequently motor emissions, for reduced environmental impact. 

ITS for User Information 

In Italy, the management of traffic information at National level is coordinated 

and managed by the CCISS (“Centro Coordinamento Informazioni Sicurezza 

Stradale”), which was instituted in 1990, by the former Public Works Ministry. 

Currently, all mobility managers, both urban and non-urban, diffuse traffic and 

transport information through internet, VMS, telephone, teletext, radio and in 

many cases also through GSM/GPRS. The objective is that of supporting the 

user in his travel choices before and during the trip, so improving transport 

comfort and efficiency. 

These systems are also an essential tool to promote multimodal choices, by 

encouraging the use of transport modes different from car. 


ITS for Road Safety 

Road Safety in Italy is key priority. In 2004, road accidents have caused more than 5.625 deaths and 

the injuring of about 400.000 people. The new Road Code, issued in 2003, has introduced a series of 

measures, like marks on the driving licence, aiming at reducing the above mentioned numbers. The 

target is the respect of the objectives of the European Commission on road safety until 2010, 

indicated in the White Paper on European Transport Policy. 

The National Plan for Road Safety states 

that ITS plays a key role for the 

improvement of road safety, with particular 

reference to emergency calls and hazardous 

goods transport. 

From many years Italian Companies and 

Universities have been particularly active in 

ITS research and development projects, 

concerning innovative components and 

integrated systems installed on-board 

vehicle for enhancing the safety level of 

both driver and vehicle. 

One of the most critical points of the Italian transport network as regards safety are the tunnels, 

especially in case of incidents causing fires. Damages do not only concern transport means directly or 

indirectly involved in the accident, but also the same structure of the tunnel, which has to be closed 

for months for repairs, with negative impacts on the whole transport network. 

The incident occurred in the Monte Bianco tunnel 

stimulated several research and development projects, 

aiming at optimising safety conditions in tunnels, through 

traffic management, diagnostic for incident prevention and 

the improvement of light and ventilation conditions in 

tunnels. 

ITS for Logistics and Freight Transport Management 

In Italy, goods are mainly transported by road. The 

challenges that Italy has to face in the freight 

transport sector is twofold. From one side, there is the 

operators need to increase the efficiency and 

productivity of the whole logistics field, from the other, 

there is the need to encourage the modal balance. In 

addition, it is necessary to accompany the liberalisation 

and decentralisation of systems and services, by 

maintaining a unitary and integrated management of 

the trip among all the various involved actors. 


Italy has been the first European Country to think and realise intermodal platforms as an 

infrastructure network dedicated to intermodal transport and the Italian logistic platform represents at 

European level an original way to rationalise the use of different transport modes. 

ITS can play a key role to promote systems integration, bringing benefits to the competitiveness of 

the economic system as a whole. By intervening in the management of the various transport steps, it 

is possible to optimise all the logistic process, from the starting point to that of goods delivery, 

through the use of different transport modes, so reducing costs. 

Italy is then at the forefront as regards the development and the deployment of innovative ITS 

solutions for fleet management and for enhancing intermodal freight transport, that are now 

extensively diffused, bringing benefits in terms of overall quality of the transport services and cost 

savings 

The Italian ITS market 

A survey carried out in 2005 by TTS Italia revealed that the ITS sector in Italy recorded a total 

turnover of about 250 million euro and predicted a growth in this trend for the next five years. The 

survey involved all the Italian companies active in the national ITS market. 

The research outlined the economic picture of the Italian ITS sector, in terms of turnover, 

investments, personnel employed, imports, exports, principal clients etc., with the objective to 

estimate the importance of such sector to the national economy. 

The study permitted to trace a map of the supply sector for Italian ITS Systems as well as for certain 

areas of demand (Local Administrations, Public transport companies, infrastructure managers, 

interports), in terms of present economic values, predicted investments and the prospects of 

short/medium term development. 

According to the results of the survey, the most promising 

future in terms of potential market are expected to be:

The Future: Galileo 

Italy has always supported Galileo since the first phasis of the project which has lead the European 

Union to develop a satellite navigation system for civil use, independent, but interoperable with GPS. 

Together with France, Germany and Great Britain, Italy is indeed one of the major sponsor of the 

project, participating with 17,38% financing contribution, and Italian companies are directly involved 

in the realisation of the project. 

The conviction is that Galileo will have a 

essential impact on the life of each 

Italian citizen. Galileo will have a key 

influence on the creation and 

development of new mobility systems 

and services, both for passengers and 

goods transport, in a wider and wider 

European context. 

Galileo will encourage the integration 

level of systems, transport modes and 

networks, so allowing the user to use in 

the most comfortable way all transport 

modes to reach his/her destination, by 

optimising route time. 

Galileo benefits will be even more important for goods transport. Operators will be able to ensure the 

customers a more and more efficient service and to control in a more effective way and in real-time, 

their trucks, wagons or containers. 

The availability of a common reference scheme for services generated by Galileo, can promote their 

market development. So, realising the National Architecture ARTIST, Italy has created the conditions 

to the maximum development of systems and services based on Galileo. 


TTS Italia Activities 2005-2006 

Our Priorities for 2005-2006 

Activities for the years 2005-2006 have been focussed on six primary objectives: 

To update the information base of the Association’s Telematic Observatory through 

research aimed at defining the current state of diffusion in both short and medium 

term time periods of telematic technologies and systems in strategic transport sectors 

and their market penetration 

To strengthen TTS Italia’s instruments of communication to eventually supply 

updated and timely information on activities, initiatives and projects being carried out 

in the ITS sector in Italy and the world 

To stimulate discussion on themes of interest within working groups instituted by the 

Association’s Technical Committee 

To promote the Italian ITS sector abroad by means of participation in international 

exhibitions, meetings with foreign delegations and, above all, through the Accord 

between TTS Italia and the Ministry of Industry for the promotion of the 

products/services of ITS members in Russia and Poland 

To participate in international initiatives and projects on ITS 

To carry out training activities in the ITS sector 

The National ITS Observatory 

In 2001 the Association established an observatory to monitor the development/diffusion of ITS in 

Italy, with the primary aim of creating a continuously updated base of information about the Italian 

situation in the transport sector that is strategic for the National economy. 

The observatory is managed directly by the Secretariat of the Association. Research is carried out 

within the observatory’s remit into the prediction of the situation in the ITS sector, in particular, on 

the expected demand for new ITS technologies, systems and services. The results of these studies 

can be used by public bodies and TTS Italia member companies as a knowledge base to support 

decisions on investment strategies and the promotion of the ITS sector in our country. 


In 2005-2006 the research was focussed on four studies: 

Research into the Italian ITS Market: A productive present picture and prediction of 

the future. 

The situation of ITS Market Demand for Goods Transport in an extra-urban setting; 

The situation of ITS Market Demand for Goods Transport in an urban setting; 

The situation of ITS Market Demand for infomobility systems/services for Goods 

Transport in an urban and extra-urban setting. 

Survey on the Italian ITS market 

TTS Italia and the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport in 2004 promoted a study aimed at 

investigating the National ITS market. The study lasted approximately ten months and was conducted 

using research methods such as structured questionnaires and has permitted the tracing of a map of 

the supply sector for Italian ITS Systems as well as for certain areas of demand (Local 

Administrations, Public transport companies, infrastructure managers, interports), in terms of present 

economic values, predicted investments and the prospects of short/medium term development. 

With regard to supply, the results obtained were also compared with data concerning the ITS market 

in the three main global areas of interest (Europe, United States and Japan), in order to show the 

present position of the national supply in the global ITS market, and the prospects for development in 

a time-frame of six years. 

The research revealed the positive development of the Italian ITS sector whether in terms of turnover 

or employment. The final results of the survey were presented by TTS Italia in a public conference 

held on 5 May 2005. 

It is important to underline that Italy was the first country to promote a research aimed at the 

economic characterisation in the national ITS sector. This confirms the originality of the study not only 

on an Italian level but on an international one and its representation of a unique model for Public 

Administrations in other countries. 

Survey on ITS Market Demand for Goods Transport in an extra-urban setting 

The aim of the survey was to understand the ITS market demand for goods transport in an extra- 

setting in terms urban of: 

Present diffusion; 

Expected benefits; 

Predicted growth in the short-medium term; 

Market sectors of major growth; 

The study was carried out in collaboration with the University of Rome “La Sapienza” and with the 

Autotransporters Association ANITA, FAI and UNIONCAMERE who made available the databases of 

their associates. 345 goods transport companies with a fleet of over 20 vehicles were contacted and 

sent targeted questionnaires. The response rate was 54.2%. 

From the obtained results it was verified that in 40% of the companies, 80% of their vehicles were 

installed with ITS devices. The benefits revealed by the companies regarded the following factors: 


Improved service optimisation (43%); 

Additional vehicle and load security conditions (38%); 

Cost reduction (22%); 

The systems with the most increase in demand in the period until 2009 are those linked 

functions of localisation and vehicle and load monitoring and control. 

to the 

Survey on ITS Market Demand for Goods Transport in an urban setting 

The objective of the study was to evaluate the demand for ITS technologies adopted by the principal 

agencies which deal with urban goods distribution. The survey was promoted as a completion of the 

previous study in order to be able to provide the most complete picture of ITS in the goods transport 

sector. 

The study was conducted in collaboration with the Faculty of Statistics of the University of Rome “La 

Sapienza”. 

Market Demand for Infomobility Systems/Services for Goods Transport in an urban and 

extra-urban setting 

The survey aimed to estimate in an experimental way using questionnaires the demand for 

infomobility services for urban and extra-urban goods transport. In particular, the most attractive type 

of services for the user and the willingness to pay different operators for value added services was 

evaluated. 

The study was conducted in collaboration with the Faculty of Statistics of the University of Rome, “La 

Sapienza”, Confcommercio, ANITA, FAI and UNIONCAMERE and involved around 600 transport 

companies. 

Communication & Dissemination 

The dissemination of knowledge about ITS Systems is one of the priority institutional tasks of TTS 

Italia. Since its inception, the Association has dedicated considerable resources to identify and 

prepare the most appropriate and qualified communication instruments to guarantee updated 

information to members on ITS systems regarding initiatives and projects being carried out and 

development trends. 

In 2005-2006 the strengthening and evaluation of the Association’s informative methods continued. 

Begun in 2002 with the restyling of the web-site, the tri-annual newsletter and the institutional 

brochure this process carried on with the publication of the monthly Italian-language newsflash and in 

2004 with the publication of “ITS in Italy Breaking News”. 

The Association’s contact database has also been the subject of continual updating, thanks to either 

advances in research into the ITS market in Italy or participation in national and international 


congresses and workshops. Presently, the database comprises of circa 5,400 Italian contacts and 

3,600 foreign contacts and is one of the most complete in existence in Italy for the ITS sector. 

The website www.ttsitalia.it: an instrument at the service of our Associates 

The site is composed of a public area and a member-reserved area, accessible by password. The 

public area is bilingual, in that each page of the Italian version has an analogous page in English. 

The public site 

The public area of the website provides clear and easily accessible information about ITS Systems 

and what is done in Italy in this sector through the activities developed by the Association and its 

members. The site is therefore aimed at different types of users, such as companies and experts in 

the sector, public administrators, the research world, students, but also the ordinary citizen who 

wants to know more. 

The TTS Italia site also offers a news service, which is updated on weekly base by the Secretariat 

with information regarding projects, initiatives, R&D programmes, conventions, events and products. 

The site registers over 80,000 contacts every month from all over the world. 

The member reserved site 

The structure of the reserved section of the site was designed with the collaboration of Association 

members through a study conducted by the TTS Italia Secretariat at the end of 2002. 

The reserved area is organised in files containing the texts of the principle directives and laws, which 

regulate the sector both in Italy and in Europe, information on how to access the available financial 

opportunities for research and development and for pre-competitive projects, national and 

international tenders, reports and studies on ITS, ecc. 

Specific files are dedicated to the ARTIST project for which TTS Italia manages communication 

activities and to the VI and VII Framework Programmes of the European Commission and to the 

Galileo Project, the satellite navigation system that will be put into practice in 2008. 

Furthermore, a new file was added in 2005: “TTS Italia Publications”, which contains reports and 

brochures undertaken by the Secretariat for various conventions/workshops/exhibitions. 

The Newsletter 

The TTS Italia Newsletter, published tri-annually, reports on the principal activities of the Association 

and provides news on programmes and projects being carried out by the Secretariat and Members. 

The Newsletter is available via internet (it can be downloaded directly from the Association’s website), 

and in paper format from the Association’s database mailing list. 

In 2005, the Newsletter was completely renovated in terms of both structure and content. The 

objective is to reach also a non-specialist audience, such as managers and public decision-makers, to 

inform them of best practise, the social and business benefits and opportunities of ITS and news 

about the systems and services market while taking a look at what is happening on the international 

scene. 


The Newsflash 

Through the monthly Italian-language Newsflash, active since May 2003, members can present 

products/projects/innovations of interest to them and also supply internet links and contact e-mail 

addresses. Newsflash is also used to announce events (workshops, congresses, conventions, etc.) 

related to ITS. It is sent via e-mail to the Association’s entire mailing-list (5,000 users). 

ITS in Italy Breaking News 

“ITS in Italy Breaking News”, the English-language newsflash launched by the Association Secretariat 

in March 2004, is a new resource available to members to spread information on new products, 

innovations and initiatives of interest to the international market. 

The “ITS in Italy Breaking News” is sent by e-mail bi-monthly to the Association’s international 

mailing-list (3,000 users). 

Congresses 

The promotion of the Italian ITS sector at national and international level is a strategic mission of 

TTS Italia. For this purpose, since its foundation, TTS Italia has spent big efforts in participating in 

events held both in Italy and abroad and has also organised workshops and conferences in strict 

collaboration with its Associates.

The event presented and discussed the last development in Italy in the field of technologies and 

applications for the “Intelligent Vehicle”, considered as a mix of intelligent and integrated systems of 

security, navigation, control, management and comfort of travel, and based on new information and 

communication technologies. 

In the course of the workshop, the Association Secretariat made a presentation on “Intelligent 

transport and intelligent vehicle systems: a symbolic duo”. 

“Mobility Show Congress & Exhibition”– Carrara, September 2006 

TTS Italia participated to the First Show Conference on Innovative Technologies for Urban Transport 

held in Carrara (Tuscany) on 21÷23 September 2006. In the course of the seminar “Systems and 

Technologies for an Integrated Management of Urban Mobility”, the Association Secretariat 

made a presentation on the most innovative ITS solutions for urban mobility management and control 

currently deployed in Italy. 


Technical Committee Activities 

The Technical Committee of TTS Italia has seven active Working Groups on strategic themes for the 

development of telematics for transport in Italy. 

Urban traffic control 

Collective urban transport 

On-board vehicle safety 

Road-tolling 

Dangerous goods transport 

E-call 

Infomobility 

The working groups are composed of experts of the Associates and their objectives are analysis, 

investigation and elaboration of proposals on identified subjects. The goal is to develop proposals for 

standards, design, strategies, methods to accelerate transport system innovation in the Country, 

through the creation of forums for discussion open to all the actors active in the sector. 

ARTIST- Italian ITS Architecture 

The promotion of ARTIST is one of the primary strategic missions of TTS Italia. To this end, the 

Secretariat of TTS Italia has been deeply involved since 2002 in the diffusion of information about 

ARTIST, giving maximum visibility to the advancement of the architecture through its own channels 

of communication as well as organising relevant meetings and in-depth studies. 

In particular, during 2005-2006, the TTS Italia Secretary promoted two studies for the designing of 

two modules of the ARTIST Architecture related to: 

Urban Traffic Management 

 

Urban Freight Transport Management 

The study on the “Urban Traffic Management” module have been carried out in collaboration with the 

Department of Civil Engineering of the University of Rome “Tor Vergata”. The principal result of the 

study was the implementation of the Physical Architecture and Organisational Architecture associated 

to the module, as they were missing in Version 1 of the National ITS Architecture. The study also 

allowed the definition of a method of evaluation/measurement of a grade of efficiency which permits 

the identification of the gap in terms of performance and satisfaction of existing user requirements 

between already existing ITS and the reference architecture ARTIST. The identified method 

represents an innovative element in the transport field. 


Further on from the study, an application to a real study case was carried out. Taking Turin as a case 

study and using the method described above, an ARTIST scheme based on P.U.T objectives was 

deployed and measured the efficiency of the present ITS operating in Turin. 

The second study aimed at developing both the Logical and the Physical Architectures of the “Urban 

freight transport management module”, and a practical application was analysed for the city of Rome. 

The study was performed in association with the University of Rome “La Sapienza”. 

The National ITS Strategic Plan 

TTS Italia, on request of the former Ministry for Infrastructure and Transport, has worked out the 

first draft of a National ITS Strategic Plan. 

Actually, eve n though the ITS sector has been active in Italy since the Eighties, our Country still lacks 

a political and strategic reference Plan to point out ITS priorities in the short/medium term, the 

objectives to achieve, the actions needed to attain them and the expected benefits. This Plan should 

take into account the challenges settled by an increasing traffic demand which is changing in 

accordance with the social models, the national competitiveness and the European goals about safety 

and the balance between modes of transport. Moreover, the Plan should also create the technological 

and normative conditions to facilitate the Italian ITS development starting from the National ITS 

Architecture ARTIST. 

Therefore, Italy needs a national ITS strategy that sets up: 

the short/medium term priorities; 

the measures necessary to realize them; 

the organizational and financial instruments; 

the mechanisms for promoting the adoption and the maintenance of the ITS systems 

and services on the basis of achieved benefits; 

the need of training. 

TTS Italia has perceived this need and, together with the Ministry, has elaborated a proposal of an 

ITS Strategic Plan to be submitted to Public Institutions. The aim of this initiative is to provide 

Institutions with a debate platform able to stimulate the creation of an ITS national policy, to accept 

the challenges of the increasing transport demand and the enlarging markets, to face the national and 

European interoperability needs. Ultimately, thanks to this proposal, the transport system will not be a 

difficult nor critical field anymore, but a powerful engine for the Country’s growth. 

The document is the result of a discussion and comparison process which involved all the main actors 

interested in ITS, such as Institutions, Companies, Research bodies. It has the aim to point out a set 

of thematic priorities based on the macro objectives of national transports and also to present a set of 

possible measures and the instruments to realize them. 


This is a first proposal which identifies twenty strategic priorities organized in five strategic thematic 

areas: 

User Information services 

Traffic Management 

Local Public Transport; 

Freight Transport and Logistics Management, including Hazardous Freight Transport 

Management 

Safety 

A set of tools to put into practice the measures selected has also been identified. 

The final version, reviewed and discussed by the Association Working Groups, will be submitted to the 

Institutions and presented during a Conference at the beginning of 2007. 

European Projects 

TTS Italia has been involved since September 2005 in two European projects co-financed by the 

Galileo Joint Undertaking within the II Call of GJU: GIROADS (GNSS Introduction in the ROAD sector) 

and M-TRADE (Multimodal TRAnsportation supporteD by Egnos). 

Participation in projects constitutes an important opportunity for the Association to add to its internal 

know-how and transfer this to its members. This increases the value that TTS Italia can give to its 

associates and, therefore, makes it more attractive to potential new members. 

GIROADS ( GNSS Introduction in the ROAD Sector) 

M-TRADE (Multimodal TRAnsportation supporteD by Egnos) 

The GIROADS project, co-ordinated by ERF (European Road Federation), aims at developing 

solutions connected to the use of GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System). Among its applications, 

the most relevant are those connected to road-tolling, localisation, emergency services, traffic 

information and navigation assistance. In GIROADS, TTS Italia as been entrusted with the co- 

ordination of regulatory aspects and those related to satellite application standards in the roads 

sector. 

The M-TRADE project is co-ordinated by Telespazio with the objective to develop solutions based on 

the use of EGNOS, and in the future Galileo, in the multi-modal goods transport sector. In the M- 

TRADE Project, TTS Italia is the leader of the dissemination activities. 

More in detail, the project aims towards the achievement of a pilot demonstration on a representative 

sea-rail-road-river route uniting trans-European corridors V and VII via: 

Genoa port 

Bologna road-rail interport 

Budapest rail-river interport

Autostrada Brescia-Padova 

The Company 

Autostrada Brescia Verona Vicenza Padova S.p.A is a motorway operator that manages the motorway 

among Brescia, Vicenza, Padova and Verona cities. The Company has been founded in 1952 and the 

shares are owned by public-private entities. The company operates on the basic of an ANAS S.p.a 

grant in the North-east of Italy. 


Autostrada Brescia Verona Vicenza Padova S.p.A, in the framework of the INFOTEN Project promoted 

by the European Commission, has developed the COMPANION system aimed at enhancing road safety 

in adverse road conditions. 

COMPANION is an automatic system warning in real-time about possible dangers on motorway 

through LED. The objective of COMPANION is to create a signalling system to be activated in every 

emergency condition and in particular in case of fog, in order to draw users’ attention and at the same 

time steering them towards a safer way of driving. 

The system is based on a series of cabled light emitting diodes - LED-, installed in traffic dividers, 

placed at a longitudinal distance of 50 metres the one from the other. They are connected among 

them and to the Traffic Control Centre through a telematic network. The characterising element of the 

system is the realisation of an automated infrastructure (collecting data on fog, accidents, queues, 

work in progress...) and a versatile, reliable and prompt way to activate commands. 

COMPANION is integrated with the VMS system of Autostrada A4 for the diffusion of emergency 

information at long distance.

Italian Ministries of Infrastructure and 

Transport 

The Institutions 

The Ministries of Infrastructure and Transport are the public Institutions responsible in Italy for the 

policies on transport. On the basis f the recommendations stated in the National Plan for Transport 

and Logistics issued in 2001, in the last five years the Ministries have been spending big effort to 

create norms and the economical and administrative conditions to start a flexible and harmonic 

development of ITS in Italy, to encourage technological innovation, to allow the exchange of 

experiences and to minimise difficulties connected with the application of new technologies. 

The development of the National ITS Architecture ARTIST, represents an important step in such 

direction. 


Promoting the development and the diffusion of ITS on a National level, requires the definition of a 

strategic Framework Architecture providing the guidelines to make the different ITS applications 

integrated, interoperable and able to dialogue through a common language. 

For this reason, in September 2001, the Italian Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport promoted the 

ARTIST (ARchitettura Telematica Italiana per il Sistema dei Trasporti) Project aimed at defining the 

National ITS Architecture. 

The ARTIST Project derives from the National Plan for Transport and Logistics (PGTL) and it aims at 

outlining the National Framework Architecture for the deployment of ITS in Italy, at large scale and in 

a multi/intermodal context from the present until the year 2010. The first phase of the Project, ended 

in January 2003, provided the first Version of the ARTIST Architecture.
