Opening Session and Press Conference:
Defining SmartCommunities™
|
|
|
|
Cities of the past were built along
waterways, railroads, and interstate highways. Cities of the
Future will be built along information highways. Caltrans,
the agency responsible for building California's bridges,
roads and extensive highway system, knows that
telecommunications is not only an essential ingredient in
advanced transportation systems, but is in fact a substitute
for transportation itself. Toward that end, Caltrans
commissioned the SDSU International Center for
Communications to develop a guidebook -- an overarching
vision of a smart community, along with a "how-to" -- for
the use and benefit of communities throughout the State of
California.

There are different ways in which a SmartCommunity™
initiative can get started. In some cases, the leadership
will be from the university such as UC Davis took the lead
to benefit the Davis community. In San Jose or Smart Valley,
it was the business community. In San Diego the leadership
came from a broad coalition of both private and public
interests.
