Abstract	En Route to Intelligent Mobility: Intelligent Transportation Systems Plan for Canada (November 1999), sets out the federal government's strategic plan for stimulating the development and deployment of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) across urban and rural Canada. En Route to Intelligent Mobility provides leadership and support to advance the application and inter-operability of ITS technologies. On February 25, 2003, Straight Ahead: A Vision for Transportation in Canada was released; this document details the federal governments strategy for achieving a safe and secure, efficient, and environmentally responsible transportation system over the coming years. The present document -- Innovation Through Partnership -- is Canadas multi-modal ITS R&D Plan. It responds to the challenge of Canadas Innovation Strategy, and serves both as the third strategic pillar of En Route to Intelligent Mobility and as an important first step in meeting the ITS commitments made by Transport Canada in Straight Ahead. The ITS R&D Plan, which is funded under the Strategic Highway Infrastructure Program (SHIP), is composed of two parts: Part A: Fostering ITS Innovation contains a number of ITS R&D activities designed to foster innovation in support of the strategic objectives of En Route to Intelligent Mobility. Part B: Funding ITS Innovation contains a scheme for funding ITS R&D project proposals designed to meet Transport Canadas ITS R&D priorities, as documented in Straight Ahead.
