AASHTOCV/AV RESEARCH ROADMAP NCHRP 20-24 (98)
PROJECT OVERVIEW • CV/AV technologies continue to advance towards adoption • Open questions on CV/AV remain for state and local agencies • Develop a prioritized list of issues and research needs • Develop a roadmap of research activities and a plan for maintenance 2
UNRESOLVED ISSUES FOR PUBLIC AGENCIES • Policy • Planning • Modal Apps • Infrastructure • Over 100 research questions 3
INSTITUTIONAL AND POLICY • Business models for infrastructure deployment • Public policy actions to facilitate implementation • Implications of AV for motor vehicle codes • Harmonization of state goals and regulations • Fed/state/local responsibilities • Lessons learned from Safety Pilot and CV Pilots • Lessons learned from other tech rollouts (e.g. 511, Next Gen air traffic control) 4
INFRASTRUCTURE DESIGN/OPERATIONS • Dedicated lanes for CV/AV • Roadway geometric design • Cybersecurity for states and locals • Workforce capability strategies • Management of “Big” Data • Road infrastructure design • Tools for CV/AV impact assessment • CV/AV maintenance fleet apps • Relationships of CV to AV • Traffic control strategies 5
TRANSPORTATION PLANNING • AVs and regional long-term planning models • Assessing impacts of CV/AV (applying tools to test cases) • Modeling effects of AV/CV on land use and travel demand 6
MODAL APPLICATIONS • Impacts of transit regulations on AV/CV tech introduction • Next steps for AV/CV applications to long-haul freight • Benefit/cost analysis of AV transit systems 7
FUNDING • USDOT ITS JPO • FHWA Offices of Operations, Safety, Policy • CV Pooled Fund Studies • Turner Fairbank Highway Research Center • AASHTO TSM&O Research and NOCoE • Department of Energy (ARPA-e) • TCRP, NCFRP • $15 M+ projects identified • $5 M NCHRP ($1 M 2015) • Need to seek synergy with other programs • Phased Approach 8
ROADMAP MAINTENANCE • AV/CV technologies and issues evolving quickly • Ownership: NCHRP 20-102 panel • Allocation of projects to programs • Collaboration and coordination of stakeholders • Yearly process of review and adjustment • Aligned with TRB Annual Meeting and summer TRB/AUVSI automation symposium 9
