Expand Applications for Texas Connected Freight Corridor
项目名称: Expand Applications for Texas Connected Freight Corridor
摘要: The Texas Connected Freight Corridors (TCFC) system is a connected and automated vehicle (CAV) environment that seeks to improve safety and mobility for the Texas Triangle – consisting of the Austin, Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, and Laredo metropolitan regions. The TCFC project is a baseline effort to develop and deliver six initial applications for use by vehicle fleets. The deployed applications include advanced travel information systems (ATIS), queue warning, work zone warning, wrong-way driving, road weather warning, and freight signal priority. The research team will expand the initial TCFC system by considering additional CAV applications for inclusion and consideration. The research team will review existing CAV efforts and pursuits, survey key stakeholders, assess the effectiveness and financial feasibility, and outline the next steps for procurement and implementation. The project goal is to develop an implementation framework that expands the TCFC system through additional applications and extended geographic reach. The effort will help to incentivize participation, as having more vehicles improves the overall effectiveness of the CAV environment in Texas.
