Abstract

The session “‘AV-Ready’ Cities or ‘City-Ready’ AVs” at the Automated Vehicles Symposium 2016 in San Francisco addressed key aspects of road automation from an urban policy perspective. The aim of the session was to raise the awareness of urban policy needs within the automation community, as well as enabling urban policy makers to understand better the opportunities and issues related to automated, connected vehicles when drafting their cities’ policies in the area of automated road transport.
