| Abstract: | The Texas Connected Freight Corridors (TCFC) system is a connected vehicle (CV) environment that seeks to improve safety and mobility for the Texas Triangle, which consists of the Austin, Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio, and Laredo metropolitan regions. The TCFC project is a baseline effort to develop and deliver six initial applications for use by vehicle fleets. The applications selected for deployment include advanced travel information systems, queue warning, work zone warning, wrong-way driving, road weather warning, and freight signal priority. This project expands the initial TCFC system by considering additional CV applications for inclusion and consideration. Project activities included reviewing existing CV efforts and pursuits, surveying key private stakeholders operating within the TCFC system, assessing the effectiveness and financial feasibility, and outlining the next steps for procurement and implementation. |
