Feasibility Study of Driverless Maintenance in Highway Construction Zones

Author/Presenter: Huang, Ziye
Abstract:

Highway construction zones post a danger to both road workers and road users because of the change of road condition and speed variance. Driverless maintenance is expected to improve traffic safety by removing road workers from work zones. This study investigates the feasibility of implementing driverless maintenance in dynamic highway construction zones, including the stakeholder involvement, traffic impact analysis and cost-benefit analysis.
