Section1 Effects of ITS and ITS Activities

Roles of ITS

Invigorating regional communities

Through deployment of ITS to suit regional needs and features, it will be possible to solve issues specific to a region, and to form active regional communities.
  • ITS will enable introduction of "demand-responsive bus" that serve people in accordance with their needs to assure mobility. In addition, it will also help develop tourism and indigenous industries in the region, by providing drivers with useful regional information.
  • Incorporation of the Smart Interchange will reduce construction and management costs. In addition, comprehensive development of regional areas will revitalize the regional economy, through construction of large-scale projects such as commercial, freight distribution, leisure, and amusement facilities. Regional ties and effective use of national land will also be promoted.
