| Description: | The U.S. DOT seeks to maintain the unique research and testing environment the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute (UMTRI) developed in Ann Arbor under the Safety Pilot. The Connected Vehicle Test Environment (CVTE) was developed as a real world model deployment test site for enabling wireless communications among vehicles and with roadside equipment for use in generating data to enable driver safety warning systems. The CVTE encompasses vehicles of various types that include a mix of integrated, retrofit, and aftermarket safety devices. The data generated and archived in the CVTE is used for estimating the safety benefits of connected vehicle technology as well as for use by the broader industry in researching and developing additional connected vehicle applications. The period of performance for the original competitively awarded Safety Pilot Contract, DTFH61-11-C-00040, will end 08/31/2014. The proposed cooperative agreement seeks to maximize the benefits generated from the CVTE by putting in place a framework under which UMTRI will continue to operate, maintain and upgrade the CVTE and seek further investment and activity from third parties in order to develop a sustainable operational environment. |
