• Abstract:
  The objectives of these tasks are the following: · Identify the types of infrastructure configurations which should be deployed. Representative System Configuration (RSC) definitions are discussed in Volume I. Since RSC I1 requires no change to the infrastructure, the studies included RSCs I2 and I3. RSC definitions are provided in Section 1.3.1. · Identify examples of Automated Highway System (AHS) deployment in the context of real case studies and quantify the benefits of these deployment scenarios using measures of effectiveness such as speed, delay, and throughput. · Assess the effect of AHS market penetration (MP) on traffic patterns for RSCs I2 and I3 based AHS deployments. · Assess the effect of traffic pattern changes on non-AHS roadways resulting from AHS deployment.
