The ST-CTN concept is comprised of an integrated set of advanced transportation technology solutions (connected vehicle, transit signal priority, machine learning, predictive analytics) to support safe and complete trips, with a focus on accessibility for those with disabilities, aging adults, and those with limited English proficiency. The User Needs Identification and Requirements Planning (UNIRP) defines the processes that will be used to generate, coordinate, approve, and support the configuration control of user needs and system requirements. The user needs and requirements development processes are critical processes that must occur early in the project lifecycle, likely before any decisions about design and development processes are made.114
