Transportation Planning Implications of Automated / Connected Vehicles on Texas Highways

Project Summary
This research explores the transportation planning implications of automated and connected vehicles (AV/CV) on Texas highways and includes an in-depth study of how travel modeling can assist in planning for AV/CV. The research team will assess how these potentially transformative technologies can be included in transportation planning to assist in the decision making process. The research team will also define AV/CV implementation along various scales of vehicle technology advancement, public acceptance and adoption, and infrastructure implementation.
