Individual ownership:
- Similar to car ownership today
Communal ownership:
- Communal fleet of vehicles to
serve transportation needs
- Carsharing/ridesharing programs

- Timeframe until critical market
penetration
- Adoption rate and growth of AV
networks
- Issues with mixed traffic
streams

Mixed Vehicle Traffic
5
- Increased single occupancy
vehicle use
- Loss of public transit users
- Reduction in active
transportation modes
- Potential negative health
impacts

- Willingness to commute longer
distances
- Repurposing land:
– Narrower right-of-way requirements – Reduced need for parking infrastructure

Urban Sprawl
7
- Willingness to travel longer
distances and more often
- Deadhead trips:
– Decentralized parking – Returning home to park – Distance between successive passengers
- Increased carpool opportunities
Increased VKT from Longer Commutes

- Competition or complement?
- Coordinating transit with AV
mobility providers – First mile, last mile
- Public-private data sharing
– Open data platforms

- Reallocate resources to high
demand routes and corridors
- AVs replace conventional transit
for low demand areas
- AVs replace paratransit and
demand responsive services

AVs Replace Paratransit?
Blind Spot Detection
12
- Uncertainty around fully-
automated transit vehicles
- HR barriers to adoption
- Semi-automated transit
technologies: – Blind spot detection – Lane assist – Docking assist

Automated Transit Vehicles
13
- Monitor advancements in
automotive industry
- Adopt AV technologies with
strong business cases
- Full automation is long term
possibility (if ever)
