USDOT Public Webinar Series: CV Pilot Site Updates at the System Design Milestone
Greetings Connected Vehicle Stakeholder,
We wanted to inform you that the U.S. Department of Transportation will be hosting a free webinar series which will share the conceptual overviews and status reports of the three Connected Vehicle Pilot projects. Please see the full announcement below, along with information on how to register for each individual webinar.

We hope to see you online!
The U.S. Department of Transportation Offers Free Public Webinar Series on the Connected Vehicle Pilot Sites
Sponsored by the USDOT Intelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program Office (ITS JPO), the CV Pilot Deployment Program is a national effort to deploy, test, and operationalize cutting-edge mobile and roadside technologies and enable multiple CV applications. These innovative technologies and applications have the potential for immediate beneficial impacts - to save lives, improve personal mobility, enhance economic productivity, reduce environmental impacts, and transform public agency operations. The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) awarded three cooperative agreements collectively worth more than $45 million to initiate a Design/Build/Test/Deploy Connected Vehicle (CV) Pilot Deployment Program to three agencies:Wyoming DOT, New York City (NYC) DOT, and Tampa Hillsborough Expressway Authority (THEA). From September 2015 to September 2016, each site prepared a comprehensive deployment concept to ensure a rapid and efficient connected vehicle capability roll-out. Now the three sites are in the midway through a 20-month phase to design, build, and test these deployments of integrated wireless in-vehicle, mobile device, and roadside technologies. In this set of webinars, we will share with you the conceptual overviews and status reports of the three pilot projects, as well as the technical challenges and lessons learned of the system design process, including those regarding security, regulation, certification, app and device development, data management and data sharing, interoperability, etc.
