Welcome
The Houston–Galveston Area Council (H–GAC) Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Architecture Plan Update provides a long–range plan for the deployment, integration, and operation of ITS in the Houston–Galveston region. The ITS Architecture Plan allows stakeholders to plan for what they want their system to look like in the long term, then organizes the system into smaller pieces that can be implemented over time as funding permits. The ITS Architecture Plan represents a shared vision of how each agency's systems will work together in the future, sharing information and resources to provide a safer, more efficient, and more effective transportation system for travelers in the Houston–Galveston region.
The purpose of this interactive ITS architecture web site is to encourage use of the H–GAC ITS Architecture and gather feedback so that the architecture is continually updated as needed. The menu bar at the left provides access to the stakeholders, the transportation systems in the region through the inventory, the services that ITS provides, the transportation–related functions that are envisioned, and the existing and planned integration opportunities in the region.
