CAR maintains Transportation and Information Systems Planning
expertise and has extensive experience working with public agencies,
automotive companies, automotive suppliers, telecommunications
companies, and information service providers to forecast, plan,
manage, and evaluate integrated transportation and information
systems. TISP is currently supporting the Michigan Department

systems projects and related Vehicle-Infra-structure Integration
(VII) activities. Past TISP projects have included evaluation
of the national Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) architecture,
development of a strategic framework for deploying ITS in Michigan,
evaluation of numerous in-vehicle and roadside traveler information
systems, evaluation of community and public transportation systems,
evaluation of advanced traffic control systems, preparing a strategic
plan for transit services in Michigan, assessment of the benefits
and costs of ITS, and planning ITS deployment alternatives in
the metropolitan Detroit area.
