TRB Forum on Preparing for Automated Vehicles and Shared Mobility: Mini-Workshop on the Economic Implications of Automated Vehicles and Shared Mobility

A clear funding and business case–neither of which have yet been clearly articulated–will be important for the success of AVs and shared mobility.

Transportation Research Circular E-C261: TRB Forum on Preparing for Automated Vehicles and Shared Mobility: Mini-Workshop on the Economic Implications of Automated Vehicles and Shared Mobility details the roles of government and the public sector as these technologies are advanced and also lists research that is needed.

The National Academies–TRB Forum on Preparing for Automated Vehicles and Shared Mobility was officially launched in early 2018 to facilitate evidence-based research needed to deploy these technologies in a manner and timeframe that informs policy to meet these long-term goals. This e-circular summarizes a workshop held by the Forum on July 14, 2019 in Orlando, Florida.
