This year, a higher level of collaboration stands out among finalists and winners. Industries, universities, and authorities have combined their efforts to deliver solutions that enhance Australia’s vehicles, roads, and infrastructure networks.
This year’s Connected & Automated Vehicle Award was won by the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads for “Demonstrating Improved Safety in Australian Roadworks Using Portable C-ITS Roadside Stations.”
In this project, the department completed a successful C-ITS roadworks demonstration, showcasing the integration of roadworks-specific equipment with a multivendor proof of concept. The event demonstrated how portable C-ITS roadside stations, not previously used in Australia, can improve safety and congestion in temporary traffic management situations.
