Connected and Automated Vehicles

Austroads has published a report that identified physical infrastructure practices that transport agencies could change to improve connected and automated vehicle support. The report addresses recommended changes to various design, placement, and maintenance aspects for line and pavement marking, electronic and non-electronic signs, and traffic signals.

Austroads has published new guidance to aid with the evaluation and reporting of automated vehicle (AV) trials. The guidance provides organisations developing, approving or delivering AV trials with direction to improve the quality of trials and achieve greater harmonisation across jurisdictions.
