In the framework of the Sino-Italian Cooperation Program held by the Italian Ministry of Environmental and Territory, an Intelligent Transport System (ITS) for the city of Beijing has been planned from the Institute for Atmospheric Pollution of the Italian National Research Council. The system investigates the direct link existing between traffic emissions and measured concentrations; this study concerns the consideration and better planning of the future development of traffic management in the city of Beijing, but also in further cities. The project target is the implementation of a tool for the reduction of traffic emissions.
