Abstract:

In his testimony delivered before the House Committee on Transportation, TTI Director Greg Winfree addressed the interim study charge "Study emerging issues in transportation related to technology and evaluate the state's preparedness for addressing challenges and opportunities posted by technological advances. Review the implementation of state and federal programs and legislation related to intelligent transportation systems, autonomous vehicles, unmanned aircraft systems (i.e., drones), and other technological changes." He emphasized that TTI is fully invested in forward-thinking transportation technologies, and that the RELLIS Campus will be a state-of-the-art showcase for research in this field. He pointed out that TTI is collaborating with the Texas Department of Transportation, the University of Texas Center for Transportation Research, and the Southwest Research Institute on the Texas Automated Proving Ground Partnership that the U.S. Department of Transportation has designated. This partnership puts Texas at the forefront of testing and eventually deploying connected and automated vehicles on Texas roadways.
