Helping Public Agencies Assess how Different Regulatory Structures for Shared Automated Vehicle Services Could Affect Transportation Access, Environmental Sustainability, and Profitability
项目名称: Helping Public Agencies Assess how Different Regulatory Structures for Shared Automated Vehicle Services Could Affect Transportation Access, Environmental Sustainability, and Profitability
摘要: Shared automated vehicles (AVs) hold great promise for improving transportation access in urban centers (due to improved operational efficiency) while drastically reducing transportation-related energy consumption and air pollution. This project develops a replicable, open, deployable model that can (1) identify areas with high concentrations of low-income or minority populations, or both within a region and (2) conduct a scenario analysis to help public agencies assess how regulatory requirements for shared AV services (e.g., number of handicap accessible vehicles and fleet size) could impact energy use, travel demand (i.e., vehicle miles traveled), average wait times across different population groups, and AV operator profit.
