Continuation of CAV Work

The Kentucky Transportation Center (KTC) has assisted the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) with the development of a comprehensive strategy for connected and automated vehicles (CAVs). Along with preparing a high-level strategic document, KTC has created pamphlets and one-page handouts for public distribution. With the CAV landscape evolving rapidly, the Cabinet will need to periodically revise and update its strategy to account for shifting market conditions and changing levels of public acceptance. The agency also needs to develop a website focused on its CAV-related activities to educate the public and stakeholder groups about the steps it is taking to prepare Kentucky infrastructure for widespread CAV deployment.
