Abstract:

The Smarter Intersections Pilot Project deployed and tested smart infrastructure technology in College Station, Texas to achieve to main goals: 1) Improve intersection safety and mobility for vulnerable road users, pedestrians, bicyclists, and those using other mobility devices, including people with mobility and visual disabilities, and 2) Demonstrate that the technology functions as proposed. The project used Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) units at five intersections in tandem with on-board units (OBUs) in transit and emergency response vehicles to alert VRUs using crosswalks and bike lanes of turning buses and emergency vehicles through auditory and visual cues. It also explored incorporating that information into a Smart Phone application that blind/low-vision people can use to navigate an intersection. Further, the project simulated how the information can be communicated to an automated shuttle approaching an intersection.
