• Backgrounds, Characteristics and Situation of ITS
  Developments in China
• Current/Upcoming ITS Planning
• The ITS projects of Transportation Engineering
  Institute at Tsinghua University
• Problems and Challenges
• Perspectives of ITS in China

1. Backgrounds

• Traffic problems get more and more serious
• Fast increasing of vehicles
• Energy sources waste
• Safety and environment
• Development of some advanced techniques

4
The Comparison for Growth Rate of Vehicles and
Roads
5
Traffic Situation on 3rd Ring In Beijing
6
Urban Road Traffic Situation in Beijing
7
Traffic situation at the intersection in Ningbo
8
Measures to Urban Traffic Problems

• Land use pattern
• Integrated comprehensive transport systemschange
  the modal split
• Improvement of road traffic
• Travel demand Management.

9
Measures to Urban Traffic Problems

• Priority for development of public
  transport(Investment, Management, Improving of
  service level)
• Strength the traffic engineering
• Extensive traffic education
• Enforcement is strictly done
• High technologies are taken extensively
• Travel demand Management.

10
2. Characteristics

• Transport infrastructures
• In China, large-scale transport infrastructure
  construction is at an early stage, the software
  and the hardware of ITS can be integrated
  simultaneously.
• Some necessary conditions of ITS deployment are
  not mature.
• Research foundation
• The accumulations of ITS research achievements
  are not enough.
• It is necessary to absorb all of the experiences
  from overseas and incorporate the situations of
  China.

11
2. Characteristics

• ITS deployment environment
• The travelers violate traffic regulations
  frequently.
• Therefore, the effects of the ITS deployments in
  China is not so satisfactory as in the developed
  countries
• But in China, the target of ITS research and
  deployments is not only to enhance the traffic
  capacity but also to regulate the behaviors of
  travelers.
