- While ITS (intelligent transportation system) technology has been around for several years in the form of signal control systems, messaging signs, CCTV and speed cameras, license plate recognition, etc., smart roads take the use of technology to another level:
- Roads that charge electric vehicles
- Automatic weighing of vehicles
- Digital street and traffic signs
- Vehicle to vehicle (V2V) and vehicle to infrastructure (V2I) technology
- Violation detection
- Smart intersection and streetlight control systems
- Self-healing road materials, etc.
