Standardisation was identified as a priority area by the EC in the ITS Action Plan and is seen as being key in helping to achieve European and global ITS co-operation and coordination.

The European Commission has invited the European Standardisation Organisations (ETSI, CEN, CENELEC) to prepare a coherent set of standards, specifications and guidelines to support European implementation and deployment of cooperative ITS technologies.

The mandate can be viewed on the European Commission’s website.
