More than 60 leading Australian and international transport and technology experts will address the second Australian Intelligent Transport Systems Summit to be held 20 to 22 September 2011 on Queensland's Gold Coast.

Under the theme ‘Strategy into Action’, summit sessions will address issues ranging from technology updates to standards, and to the economic and public benefit debates surrounding the application of new Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) technologies.

ITS Australia President Dr Norm Pidgeon said the purpose of the summit is to progress industry input to a strategy for Australia's national ITS development. "This summit will address private, public and commercial transport in the road and rail sectors," he said.

Nominations reflecting world’s best practice in the intelligent transport systems (ITS) industry were winners at the third ITS Australia Awards presentation ceremony in Melbourne on 28 November.
