Abstract Connected vehicles have the potential to transform the way Americans travel through the creation of a safe, interoperable wireless communications network that links cars, buses, trucks, trains, transportation infrastructure, and personal mobile devices. Connected vehicle applications provide connectivity between and among vehicles, infrastructure, and wireless devices to: • enable crash warnings; • enable safety, mobility, and environmental benefits; and • provide continuous real-time connectivity to all system users Connected vehicle technology will change the transportation system paradigm by giving people the tools to avoid crashes, and make travel faster, easier, more accessible, and environmentally friendlier. The vision for Transit Connected Vehicle research is to collaborate and leverage the evolving Connected Vehicle communications capability to achieve desirable transit safety, mobility, and environment outcomes.
