Within the general road safety framework, eSafety is a joint industry-public sector initiative aiming to well established targets related to safetyand efficient management by using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Advanced Information and Communication Technologies contribute significantly to road safety and efficiency by enabling the development ofsophisticated intelligent vehicle and Infrastructure systems and also taking a more and more important role in energy efficiency and sustainability. These objectives led the e-Safety Forum Steering Group to propose the constitution of an Intelligent Infrastructure Working Group (II WG). The IIWG focuses on the road infrastructure side of cooperative systems with the objectives of identifying the expectations towards intelligent infrastructure and achieving a balance between the goals of the road operators and administrations, and the industry.
