Impacts of Connected Vehicles and Automated Vehicles on State and Local Transportation Agencies. Task-Order Support. Impacts of Connected and Automated Vehicle Technologies on the Highway Infrastructure
The objective of this research is to produce guidance for state and local transportation agencies in evaluating and—if necessary—adapting their standards and practices for roadway and intelligent transportation system designs (including traffic control devices) and related maintenance and operations to reflect the deployment of connected and automated vehicle technologies. The guidance will consider trends and timelines in the development and deployment of various connected and automated driving technologies (primarily SAE Levels 2 and 3, with some consideration of Level 4), including sensor systems and the increasing role of digital infrastructure and connectivity (e.g., dynamic high definition maps, real-time data and information, and geo-referencing). The guidance should describe how changes in standards and practices could advance agency goals while considering the effects on transportation agency resources. The guidance should also suggest approaches to foster collaboration between the public and private sectors so as to develop and advance needed standards and practices, including for data access and sharing.
