Abstract:

The transition of the vehicle fleet to incorporate AV will be a long and complex process. AVs will gradually form a larger and larger share of the fleet mix, offering opportunities and challenges for improved efficiency and safety. At any given point during this transition a portion of the AV fleet will be consuming roadway capacity while unoccupied (operating without passengers). Should these unoccupied vehicles simply utilize shortest paths to their next destination, they will contribute to congestion for the rest of the roadway users without providing any benefit to human passengers. There is an opportunity to develop routing strategies for unoccupied AVs that mitigate or eliminate their contribution to congestion while still serving the mobility needs of AV owners or passengers.
