Iteris has announced it has been chosen to support the selection and deployment of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) technologies in Metro Cebu, Philippines as part of a USTDA-funded ITS modernisation project.
This technical assistance activity is provided by USTDA to the grantee, Philippines’ Department of Transportation (“DOTr”). The project involves developing an ITS master plan for the growing Cebu City and 12 surrounding local government units. Because of their large population and quick growth, the region is facing considerable challenges related to transportation infrastructure, causing congestion, delays and unsafe traffic conditions.
The project aims to identify ITS solutions that can improve traffic management, reduce vehicle emissions, enhance road safety and advance efficiencies in intra/inter Metro Cebu cargo and passenger movements.
Iteris is a subconsultant to Nathan Associates, LLC, a global partner for providing analytic and economic solutions worldwide. Iteris will lead the ITS activities, including assessment of current conditions, development of ITS technology recommendations, review of potential technology suppliers in the U.S. and creation of the ITS master plan.
“We’re happy to have been selected to be part of this international initiative, which is another recognition of our team’s expertise in modernising transportation infrastructures,” said Moe Zarean, the general manager of mobility operations services at Iteris. “This project will be critical to improving mobility in Metro Cebu at an essential time of growth, and we’re excited to work closely with all stakeholders to make it a success.”

The LoRa Alliance, the global consortium supporting the open LoRaWAN standard for Internet of Things (IoT) low-power wide-area networks (LPWANs), announced on Tuesday that Stefan Lindvall, CEO of MultiTech, has joined its board of directors. His extensive experience and leadership in the IoT industry make him a valuable addition to the LoRa Alliance board.
Under his guidance, MultiTech has consistently demonstrated a commitment to advancing IoT technologies and promoting interoperability, aligning with the goals of the LoRa Alliance.
“IIoT is a huge, growing market actively leveraging robust, open and standards-based networking options suitable for large-scale deployments, like LoRaWAN,” says Donna Moore, CEO and chairwoman of the LoRa Alliance. “For many industrial use cases, LoRaWAN offers the best solution for reliable, secure, scalable and cost-effective communication. It can also be deployed as privately operated networks, a benefit for many customers.
Moore adds that LoRaWAN has become the global standard for low-bandwidth communication in industrial applications by continuing to support innovation, interoperability, security, and scalability. “I am pleased to welcome Stefan to the board to leverage his significant experience and expertise to support our ongoing leadership in this market.”
MultiTech’s addition to the board of directors comes as LoRaWAN’s use in IIoT is rapidly growing and the Alliance looks to strengthen awareness of the technology and its benefits to support industrial applications.
LoRaWAN is a key enabling technology driving the transformation into Industry 5.0 and its embrace of sustainability and humankind. LoRaWAN offers critical benefits like improving efficiency, safety, productivity, and workforce utilisation and satisfaction that will make Industry 5.0 a reality.
“MultiTech has been at the forefront of IoT LoRaWAN innovation, collaborating in the development of open ecosystems without customer lock-ins,” said Lindvall. “This board appointment is an affirmation of our belief in the future of LoRaWAN.”
Lindvall adds, “I am committed to actively contributing to the continued growth, education, awareness and thought leadership to drive the continued growth, standardisation and success of LoRaWAN.”
