“We are pleased to partner with the Oregon Department of Transportation and believe the state sets the standard that others look to follow,” said Brad Wright, CEO of NextMove. “By participating in these projects, we continue to position ourselves as a trusted resource both in Oregon as well as other markets across the U.S.”
Cintra will serve as a Commercial Account Manager for OReGO, ODOT’s Road Usage Charging (RUC) program, in which participating Oregonians pay a per-mile charge for the miles they drive and receive a credit for fuel tax paid at the pump. NextMove will serve as the interface between drivers and ODOT to collect and report the mileage driven; it will also remit payments to the state as an alternative to a higher registration fee for electric vehicles and fuel-efficient vehicles.
The second project is the Connected Vehicle Ecosystem (CVE), which has been newly created to support Oregon’s Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) and RUC efforts. Cintra will provide the ideation, planning, development, demonstration, implementation, operation, and maintenance of the CVE that will support RUC and ITS safety and mobility applications. The CVE’s objective is to solve a growing need both in Oregon and other states to collect, normalize, and leverage various systems that serve as data origination points to create the backbone for current and future use cases, including ITS, safety, and RUC.
For the awarded ODOT projects, Cintra is partnering with ClearRoad on OReGO; and with Rekor, Gannet Fleming, and ClearRoad on the CVE project.
