Abstract

As people have to change their places in order to meet their needs, there has been an increase in the demand for mobility and transport. It has become more important to correctly plan the time spent on roads and traffic according to criteria such as safety, security, comfort, and environmental impacts for the seamless mobility of people and goods. One of the prominent concepts in the studies and search for solutions in this direction is intelligent transport systems. The purpose of the study is to find out the importance of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and policies in the world and in Türkiye in terms of sustainable transportation. In this context, firstly, the importance of ITS and its regional development in the historical process is mentioned. Then, ITS activities and policies in Türkiye and their place in strategy documents is analysed. Finally, the National ITS Strategy and Action Plans related to intelligent transport systems, which have developed as a new transport solution within the framework of sustainability in the world, are evaluated in terms of their contribution to transport, economy and climate change, and technical, administrative, and social focus areas to increase ITS deployments in Türkiye are presented.
