SPR-5018: Connected Freeway and Signalized Corridor Pilot: C-V2X Technologies Deployment for Enhanced Safety and Efficiency in Indiana

This project will deliver a field-tested pilot deployment of C-V2X technologies along two critical corridors in Columbus, Indiana, supported by vehicle demonstrations and real-world data collection. By integrating physical and virtual roadside units, developing Signal Phase and Timing (SPaT) based CAV applications such as trucking ecoapproach and departure and extended green functionality, emergency vehicle pre-emption, and validating Rampcast for freeway ramps, the study will generate actionable insights for Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) on deployment strategies, performance metrics, and scalability. A Purdue-led multidisciplinary team will carry out the proposed work in collaboration with INDOT and industry partners. Outcomes will inform statewide infrastructure planning and accelerate Indiana’s readiness for CAV technologies.
