Highways Voices: Inside the Future of ITS from Australia

Highways Voices comes fromAustralia for the next few weeks as we bring you a series of podcasts all about the ITS Australia Summit 2025 in the Gold Coast.

These podcasts are brought to you thanks to the support of TomTom, Nicander, AGD Systems Australia, TraceMark Flow an NGIS Solution, Westcotec and TRL.

In todays' podcast, that is interesting whether you’re lucky enough to be heading along, or unable to make it but wanting to learn from the expertise being shared, you’ll hear from the person in charge of the team putting it on, exploring the theme “Next Generation ITS: Building Safer, More Sustainable Communities”. We discuss how AI, automation, and data connectivity will transform how we move people and goods, especially as Southeast Queensland prepares to host the 2032 Olympics.

We’ll find out about Wescotec’s mission to expand into Australia with high-quality, collision reduction and traffic safety systems, driven by their employee-owned ethos and discuss TRL’s iRoads platform, helping authorities manage and optimise transport assets worldwide. Plus the Chair of ITS Nationals in Europe talks about sharing best practices across 28 European countries and fostering stronger global collaboration - a vision for a worldwide ITS community working together on safer, smarter mobility.

From global collaboration to cutting-edge safety tech, Highways Voices dives into the innovations driving the future of mobility at the ITS Australia Summit 2025.
