“The membership package enables RTA to take part in preparing and updating technical specifications and international standards of ITS and review initial results of practical initiatives funded by ERTICO. RTA will also have the chance to make visits to experiment sites and have access to a restricted advisory for review and comments, and obtain supporting data about ITS future projects”.

RTA will also obtain an insight into various markets, receive feedback, and have access to tools, technologies and international standards of the industry. Such inputs are of particular importance and relevance as smart mobility is integrated into RTA’s current and future projects,” she confirmed.
