3 Texas Triangle Challenges Texas Triangle contains ¾ of Texas 28 million population growing to 39 million people in 2045 Seven of top 25 national freight bottlenecks Eleven of top 20 most congested roadway sections in Texas Doubling of freight tonnage from 2010 to 2040 (2/3rd by truck) More cross border trade value than CA, MI, ND, and AZ combined 3

4 Texas Connected Vehicle Vision The Texas vision is to create a sustainable connected vehicle environment covering the 865- mile Texas Triangle (including extension to Laredo) to support V2V and V2I safety and mobility applications TxDOT and its partners believe on-going success and support will be achieved by: Promoting economic efficiency and safety of commercial vehicles and freight first, followed by passenger cars and other users Creating Day One benefits through use of aftermarket devices and integration with existing on-board technologies Minimizing infrastructure costs to state and local agencies 4

5 Texas Connected Freight Corridors Project Texas Proposal: Equip Texas Triangle with connected infrastructure technology (IH10, IH30, IH35 & IH45) Equip 1,000 trucks and TxDOT fleet vehicles with onboard technology HEB flagship partner, approaching others for participation Provide freight operators and drivers with info and warnings to improve safety and mobility: Warnings for traffic queues, work zones, low bridge heights, weather (heavy rain, ice, fog), wrong-way drivers Equipped truck will get braking warnings from other equipped trucks Info on traffic conditions, route guidance, border wait times 5

6 Proposed Connected Vehicle Applications Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) Traffic Condition Information Dynamic Routing for Fuel Savings Work Zone Warnings on Location and Delay Truck Parking Availability and Reservations Border Wait Times Truck Signal Priority on Arterials Low Bridge Height Warning Traffic Queue Warnings Road Weather Warnings Wrong Way Driving (WWD) Alerts Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) Traffic and Road Conditions Information for Truck Platooning Emergency Electronic Brake Lights Alerts from Trucks Ahead 6
