New database tracks ITS legislation

Public Roads, March-April, 2004

As part of a cooperative agreement with FHWA, the National Conference of State Legislatures tracks State efforts to use technology and intelligent transportation systems (ITS) to improve the safety and efficiency of surface transportation. The new Intelligent Transportation Systems State Legislation Database tracks current ITS legislation in the States, providing information on bill numbers, summaries, and information on bill status.

Users can search the database by the bill's year, status (active or inactive), sponsor, and the most recent date of action. Constituents also can search by the State in which the bill originated, or simply use a keyword to find the appropriate bill.

The National Conference of State Legislatures' transportation program offers information, research, legislative data, and referral assistance on more than 350 topics. The leading transportation issue areas include distracted driving, drunk driving, hazardous materials, ITS technologies, and rail and traffic safety.
