Abstract

Traffic congestion costs the Nation billions of dollars each year in wasted fuel and lost productivity. Traditional traffic control systems cannot keep pace with this growing problem, but systems that work with self-driving vehicles may afford a more radical approach. “Intersection Control for Autonomous Vehicles,” an Exploratory Advanced Research (EAR) Program project, is pursuing a new way to keep traffic moving. This project, awarded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in 2008, is being conducted at the University of Texas at Austin. (Author/publisher)
