Abstract:This review brings together the bodies of literature on transportation equity analysis, travel behavior forecasting, and impacts of connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs), with the ultimate objective of highlighting important research needs for measuring the transportation equity implications of CAVs. In comparison to previous reviews of social impacts of CAVs the focus is specifically on the state of current methods for accessing the transportation equity implications of CAVs. The authors seek to provide a summary of the methods used to assess potential impacts of CAVs and how these impacts are likely to apply for transport disadvantaged communities. The review highlights some critical gaps in available methods for measuring potential equity impacts of CAVs. The authors find that while a range of methods exists that may be applied to begin building understanding of CAV equity implications, clear guidance how to appropriately apply these is warranted.
