The Rise of Long-Distance Trips, in a World of Self-Driving Cars: Anticipating Trip Counts and Evolving Travel Patterns Across the Texas Triangle Megaregion
项目名称: The Rise of Long-Distance Trips, in a World of Self-Driving Cars: Anticipating Trip Counts and Evolving Travel Patterns Across the Texas Triangle Megaregion
摘要: More automated vehicles means easier travel, and thus more frequent long-distance driving within the Texas Triangle and Gulf Coasts Megaregions. Vehicle Miles of Travel (VMT) is likely to rise on all types of roadways, throughout the megaregion, in the coming years and decades, well beyond what trends in population and economic activity would predict. Data on travel behaviors and trends will be compiled to modify existing models or create new ones to forecast these changes, under a variety of policy and technology scenarios. They will predict VMT and other impacts across the megaregion�s network, and help decision makers within the Texas Triangle megaregion appreciate the benefits and costs of different policies, investments, and practices.
