TRB Straight to Recording For All: Automated Transit Future Impacts on the Built Environment

TRB recorded a series of videos in May 2016 that provides information on the impact of automated transit systems on the built environment.  Transit systems being planned and designed today will be functional for several decades.  The introduction of fully automated and connected vehicles could have significant implications for transit facilities.  These vehicles could provide whole new ways to structure transit routing and dispatching in order to meet changing ridership demand patterns.  The videos are available on-demand at no cost.

Here are the slides from the presentation.
