1. AASHTO CV/AV RESEARCH ROADMAP NCHRP 20-24 (98)

2. 2 PROJECT MOTIVATION  CV/AV technologies continue to advance towards introduction  Open questions and issues remain for state and local agencies  Develop a roadmap of research and related activities to close gaps

3. 3 Project Panel Members John Corbin, FHWA Mark Kopko, Pennsylvania DOT Melissa Lance, Virginia DOT Greg Larson, Caltrans Blaine Leonard, Utah DOT Siva Narla, ITE Ryan Rice, Colorado DOT Shelley Row, consultant Matthew Smith, Michigan DOT Bob Arnold, USDOT Joe Peters, FHWA TFHRC Kevin Dopart, USDOT Gummada Murthy, AASHTO Jim Wright, AASHTO

4. 4 PROJECT OVERVIEW  Develop a catalog of open issues and research needs  Prioritize issues in catalog and consolidate into research projects  Develop a roadmap of research activities  Develop a structure for maintenance of the roadmap  Summarize project for dissemination

5. 5 UNRESOLVED ISSUES FOR PUBLIC AGENCIES  Over 100 research questions Planning Infrastructure PolicyModal Apps

6. 6 PANEL VOTING ON IMPORTANCE OF ISSUES  Topics in infrastructure operations were most consistently rated “critical”  Limited consensus: votes of both “critical” and “not important” on many topics

7. 7 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)

8. 8 INFRASTRUCTURE DESIGN/OPERATIONS  Road infrastructure design  Tools for CV/AV impact assessment  CV/AV maintenance fleet apps  Relationships of CV to AV  Traffic control strategies  Dedicated lanes for CV/AV  Roadway geometric design  Cybersecurity for states and locals  Workforce capability strategies  Management of “Big” Data

9. 9 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

10. 10 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

13. 13 FUNDING  $15 M+ projects identified  $5 M NCHRP ($1 M 2015)  Need to seek synergy with other programs  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

14. 14 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

15. 15 ROADMAP MAINTENANCE Impacts of transit regulations on AV/CV tech introduction Impacts of AV/CV applications in long-haul freight Benefit/cost analysis of AV transit systems Step123456 WHAT Review AV/CV roadmap RNS/RPS and new ideas Maintain priority rankings, sort new RPS from Step 1 Draft new/modified RPS to advance to SCOR / DOT / CVPFS Review and prioritize AV/CV RPS; advocate and coordinate funding agency Submit RPS, RFP, task order descriptions Track previous, on- going, and scheduled research; identify new ideas and issues WHO 20-102 panel; oversight from FHWA, DOT, V2I coalition liaisons as appropriate 20-102 panel, in consultation with other funding partners 20-102 panel with support from AV/CV subcommittee of TSM&O research task force 20-102 panel 20-102 panel; oversight from FHWA, DOT, V2I coalition liaisons as appropriate WHEN TRB Annual MeetingMid-February 1 month prior to TRB/AUVSI Automated Vehicles Symposium TRB/AUVSI Automated Vehicles Symposium By Sept 15 of each year (for 20-102 projects), other funding agencies have different schedules November each year HOW Face to face meeting including existing contractors WebinarChampions for each RPS lead creation of draft, committee review Formal component of summer meeting agenda; 20-102 panel finalize RPSs for task orders, coordinated with CVPFS and DOT ID/IQ managers, for complementary funding sources Formal submission process of updating task orders / extending existing 20-102 Presentations by current research teams and entities at webinar or face-to-face meeting of TSM&O research task force, DOT, JPO, CVPFS

16. 16 NEXT STEPS  NCHRP 20-102 RFP released, responses due 1/29/15  Selection of multiple teams available for task orders  20-102 panel formed, prioritizing first $1 M allocation  Summer 2015 task orders begin
