A Shared National Goal for ITS Implementation. This is the proper role of federal leadership. Once we have a single, shared, national vision for an ITI, we must assume our proper role of providing training and guidance for the future. For many, the future transportation world will be a new world of systems integration, communications technology, and systems design. The FHWA strategic plan specifically calls for us to make a major investment in this area.
Every program has to ask tough questions about whether the investments live up to their promise.
And this program is no different.

Previously, she served as assistant commissioner of policy and planning for the New Jersey Department of Transportation and director of the Office of Transportation Planning for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
