Abstract:

FTA has conducted research on guidelines for test facility requirements to support automated transit vehicle testing and demonstration projects. Stakeholders, including federal agencies, universities, transit agencies and operators, test facilities, and industry representatives, were consulted and, based on those conversations, a list of requirements was compiled in the areas of test facility features, functionality and performance, safety, environmental resilience, human factors, and data collection and management. These requirements were classified as “mandatory,” “optional,” and “not applicable” with respect to 14 use cases that have been organized into five technology packages—Transit Bus Advanced Driver Assistance Systems; Automated Shuttles; Maintenance, Yard, Parking Operations; Mobility-on-Demand Service; and Automated Bus Rapid Transit.
