• Abstract:
  Public transit vehicles, pedestrians, and bicyclists share roads in urban, suburban, and rural environments in Texas. Signalized intersections in urban areas are complex shared spaces where crashes involving transit vehicles, bicyclists, and pedestrians can occur. This research explored the potential of automated and connected vehicle (AV/CV) technology to reduce or eliminate these crashes. In Phase III, the smart intersection developed and pilot-tested in Phase II was deployed at the George Bush Drive/Penberthy Boulevard intersection on the Texas A&M University campus. The system was operated, monitored, and evaluated over a 14-month period from April 2020 to June 2021.
