Agreements & Collaborations
National Partnerships
TTS Italia has some agreements and works in synergy with Public Institutions, Local Authorities and
Associations active in the national transport sector. In particular, TTS Italia:
collaborates with Città Mobile, the association of Italian cities for sustainable mobility
and the development of transport for the exchange of information on common goals
and initiatives;
has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Province of Milan, aimed at
promoting coordinated initiatives of communication and dissemination;
has contacts with Ricerche Trasporti-the research, study and debate forum on
transport in Italy-for the exchange of information on common goals and initiatives.
International Partnerships
TTS Italia has established formal agreements with similar European and worldwide associations in
order to evaluate and undertake common strategies and actions. In particular:
TTS Italia is one of the founding members of the ITS Nationals Network, the
National ITS Associations network promoted by ERTICO. The network was officially
launched in London on 7 October 2004 and aims at creating an information and
promotion network on ITS of an international character.
Participation in the platform is a primary objective for TTS Italia, above all for the
exchange of information and experience with European partners with common
interests. Furthermore, from the point of view of adopting common strategic
agreements, the ITS Nationals Network constitutes an important informative channel
for the benefit of their associates about the activities of the European Commission and
decisions being adopted.
Moreover, participation in ITS Nationals will be extremely useful for the future
development of the initiatives undertaken by the Association in collaboration with the
Ministry of Industry.
TTS Italia has formal agreements with ITS United Kingdom, ITS Sweden, ITS
India, ITS Russia aiming at exchanging information on the ongoing programs and
projects related to transport telematics, logistics and traffic.
