Iteris has announced it has been awarded a new contract by the Virginia Department of Transportation for a statewide smart mobility initiative.

This contract involves operations planning and on-call services support. Under the terms of the contract, Iteris, with input and collaboration from VHB, Kimley-Horn and Prime AE, will develop a Traffic Operations Strategic Plan (TOSP) for the state of Virginia, which will encompass all programmes within the scope of Traffic Operations and will define a path forward for the future of VDOT’s Traffic Operations Programme.

Iteris’ team of experts will provide project management, research, development and completion of the TOSP, as well as ancillary plans development—seeing the project from start to finish. When finished, the plan will support VDOT’s mission to plan, deliver, operate and maintain a transportation system that is safe, enables easy movement of people and goods, enhances the economy and improves our quality of life.

“We are thrilled to build upon our longstanding partnership with VDOT,” said Moe Zarean, the general manager of mobility operations services at Iteris. “This project will set the course for VDOT’s Traffic Operation Programme for years to come, and we feel particularly honoured to help create a plan that will enhance the safety and ease of travel for residents while simultaneously improving air quality and fuel consumption.”
