| Abstract | Automated vehicles have the potential to significantly transform the nation’s roadways. They offer potential safety benefits, but also introduce uncertainty for agencies responsible for the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of the roadway infrastructure. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is initiating a national conversation with partners and stakeholders, as well as the public at-large, to receive broad input on key areas of interest and prepare FHWA programs and policies to incorporate automation considerations. The National Dialogue on Highway Automation is a series of meetings held across the country to facilitate information sharing, identify key issues, and support the transportation community to safely and efficiently integrate automated vehicles into the road network. Input received during the National Dialogue will help inform FHWA research, policies, and programs. This National Dialogue will engage an expanded set of stakeholders—beyond FHWA’s typical stakeholders—to ensure that this issue receives broad input. Stakeholders will include, but are not limited to, original equipment manufacturers, technology suppliers, transportation network companies, associations, State and local agencies, and public sector partners. |
