Abstract
The paper aims to propose an Intelligent Transportation System (henceforth ITS) applications which will work on developing public transportation (PT) in Dohuk city. This will support the transportation system economically, environmentally, socially, etc. The IVU suite, which is one of the widely used ITS applications for supporting and developing PT systems in developed countries, is proposed here for developing the PT in the study area. The study shows that the implementation of ITS in the city will give positive economic and social effects. Besides, it will reduce the economic and social losses through improving the safety and security of the roads then reducing the number of deaths and injuries caused by road accidents. As well as, improving the operation of PT system. This paper also recommends the Dohuk DoT in cooperation with the Municipality of Dohuk city to establish an information bank for road and traffic data in the city
