Utilizing Cooperative Automated Transportation (CAT) Data to Enhance Freeway Operational Strategies

The objective of this research is to assess operational scenarios and use cases where freeway operations strategies could be improved through the transmission of data between a traffic management system (TMS) and the larger cooperative automated transportation (CAT) system (either directly or through a third party). This assessment should (1) spur development of enhanced and new operational strategies and (2) help agencies justify gaining access to additional CAT data..
