摘要: There is optimism that Automated Vehicles (AVs) can improve the safety of the transportation system, reduce congestion, increase reliability, offer improved mobility solutions to all segments of the population including the transportation-disadvantaged such as the elderly and disabled, and improve the quality of life of all people. The recently enacted HB 7061 stipulates that the Long Range Transportation Plans (LRTPs) in Florida consider the infrastructure changes needed to accommodate advanced vehicle technologies such as autonomous vehicles. This study reviewed current LRTPs of Florida MPOs with regards to AVs (About one-third of all MPOs include AV-related language in their current plans) and conducted a survey of MPOs to assess their opinions and needs. Overall, 23 of the 27 Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) had provided responses. The survey responses indicate that while MPOs are not skeptical of AV, there is much uncertainty in the anticipated impacts of this technology on attaining their planning goals. Further, the surveys clearly point to the MPOs need for information. This study undertook a synthesis of literature to address these issues, and this is included in the final report. Finally, a set of recommendations are developed for FDOT to assist MPOs incorporate AVs into their LRTPs. These recommendations are in line with the state’s vision to be a leader in the field of the new transformative technologies and are synergistic with the several initiatives the state is already undertaking.
