        \n
      • Dr. Tony Qiu, NSERC Industrial Research Chair in ITS, University of Alber<\/li>\n
      • Yun Ping Huang, Postdoctoral Researcher, University of Calgary<\/li>\n

        <\/p>\n

        Connected and automated vehicles are no longer a distant future\u2014pilot projects are underway, and partial automation features are already on our roads. Yet for the foreseeable future, human-driven and automated vehicles will share the same lanes, intersections, and highways. Managing this transition period presents unique challenges for transportation agencies, policymakers, and the ITS community.<\/p>\n

        <\/p>\n

        This panel examines the research, telecommunications infrastructure, policies, infrastructure investments, and operational strategies needed to support the gradual integration of automated vehicles into the Canadian transportation network. Panelists will discuss how agencies are preparing\u2014from updating signal infrastructure for V2I communication, to adapting traffic management strategies, to addressing liability and regulatory questions that arise when humans and machines share the road. We\u2019ll explore academic research that predicts the efficiencies and challenges of a mixed environment with human drivers, driver-assist modes, and driverless vehicles.<\/p>\n

        <\/p>\n

        Expect a candid discussion about what we know, what we don\u2019t, and how ITS professionals can help ensure this transition is safe, equitable, and effective for all road users.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
