Connected and digital transportation offers a way to improve the efficiency, safety and livability of communities in a time when government is dealing with highway fatalities, increasing congestion, trends like autonomous vehicles and rising citizen expectations. And that’s why, now more than ever, it is time for the public sector to invest in an infrastructure that digitizes transportation and increases the health, happiness and success of communities.
