Abstract	The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and its technology partners have developed the Advanced Transportation Systems Program Plan. This plan proposes utilizing technological advancements to provide a broad array of user services through the private marketplace, as well as a link to improved management of public facilities and services. Rather than depending solely on traditional capital solutions that would result in declining transportation service levels, the Advanced Transportation Systems Program seeks to take full advantage of strategic opportunities to find low-cost, public/private solutions that will substantially increase the value of the billions of taxpayer dollars invested in present and future public infrastructure, and make Californias technological industries competitive in emerging global transportation technology markets. Realizing that such a monumental task of meeting future transportation demands cannot be accomplished alone, Caltrans is encouraging a partnership between the public and private sectors to conduct collaborative research, development, testing, and evaluation of technologies, systems, and user services. 18 p.
