Case Study Findings Presented at
Western Transportation Conference
Mr. Andrew Johnsen, of the Policy and Technology Analysis Division, was a panelist at a session on interagency partnerships during the 1999 Western Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (WASHTO) Annual Conference, held recently in Juneau, AK. During the session, Mr. Johnsen presented an overview of the findings and perspectives gleaned from a series of case studies sponsored by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and recently conducted by an interdivisional team of Volpe Center staff. The case studies, which are now being published, examined the processes used in developing regional and statewide intelligent transportation systems (ITS) architectures. Other speakers among the 750 WASHTO conference participants included Alaska Governor Tony Knowles, Maritime Administrator Clyde Hart, FHWA Deputy Administrator Gloria Jeff, Washington State Secretary of Transportation Sid Morrison, American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials Executive Director John Horsley, and several others from public and private sector transportation organizations.
