| Summary: | Integrated Transport System (ITS) is the technology of utilising intelligent application in management of transportation systems. Generally, ITS involves the merging of various transport systems of multiple types of transportation, and managing the movement of the cargo or passengers according to data collected, in terms of destination, congestions, routing and costs, to name a few. The idea behind ITS is to facilitate a better experience for moving of cargo and passengers, by integrating suitable modes of transport, based on real-time data of the best available routes, time and cost. ITS also aims for better comfort and efficiency, to beat the typical adverse effects of transport systems, particularly congestions, delays, and subsequent wastes such as pollutions to the environment. This paper examines trend of ITS in Malaysian, particularly in the Kuala Lumpur and Klang Valley area, the potential and benefits that ITS can bring to improve on the current transport system. |
