NCHRP Research Report 1051: Connected and Automated Vehicles in Work Zones: Are Transportation Agencies Ready?

This brief article is partially derived from National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Research Report 1051: Preparing Transportation Agencies for Connected and Automated Vehicles in Work Zones. The research goals were to: (1) identify the technical needs and potential impacts of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) in work zones, while also considering the impact of work zones on CAVs; (2) document deployed and planned practices for CAVs in work zones; (3) evaluate the qualitative and quantitative benefits of these practices (e.g., return on investment, improved safety, mobility, and user–worker awareness); (4) identify research needed to address gaps in implementing various CAV practices; and (5) educate stakeholders on research findings through webinars and other materials.
