• Abstract:
  Autonomous vehicles (AVs) create the potential for improvements in traffic operations as well as ; new behaviors for travelers such as car sharing among trips through driverless repositioning. Most studies ; on AVs have focused on technology or traffic operations, and the impact of AVs on planning is currently ; unknown. Development of a planning model integrating AV improvements to traffic operations and the ; impact of new traveler behavior options will soon be of practical interest as AVs are currently test-driven ; on public roads. The altered traveler preferences may affect mode choice, leading to changes in transit ; demand and transit provider cost. An analysis of the model on metropolitan planning data will provide ; predictions on the impact of general AV ownership on network conditions. ; This project report combines five papers on this topic: ; 1. Effects of Autonomous Vehicle Behavior on Arterial and Freeway Networks ; 2. A Multiclass Cell Transmission Model for Shared Human and Autonomous Vehicle Roads ; 3. Intersection Auctions and Reservation-Based Control in Dynamic Traffic Assignment ; 4. The Impact of Autonomous Vehicles on Traffic Management: The Case of Dynamic Lane Reversal ; 5. Bus Routing Problem for KIPP Charter Schools.
