Deployment of Automated Vehicles in Metropolitan Areas: A European Perspective

1.5 CM / LU Pending

Automated vehicles (AVs) currently pilot only on fragments of urban road networks due to safety standards, technological feasibility and spatial complexity. This condition could potentially last for decades, leading to spatially (and socially) selective deployment of AVs across metropolitan areas. In this session, the Technical University of Vienna, TNO and Graz Holding present latest research on spatial challenges and impacts of AVs as well as respective implication for planning and policy.
