Vehicle Infrastructure Integration:The State Perspective June 3, 2007 Gregory D. Krueger, P.E. Michigan Department of Transportation
The Driving Forces at a State DOT • 43,000 People Die Every Year on Our Roadways • Leading Cause of Death Between Ages 4 – 33 • 50% of the Deaths Occur from Intersection Collision and Leaving the Roadway • Traffic Crashes Cost the Economy $230B/Yr • Traffic Congestion Costs Americans $63B/Yr • Congestion Wastes Billions of Gallons of Fuel
Every DOT’s Mission • Reduce and Eliminate Crashes • Address Congestion • Recurrent vs. non-Recurrent • Manage / Maintain vs. Build-Out • Economic Competitiveness and Development • National • International
Efficient and Effective Operations and ITS • Develop and sustain a program at MDOT to improve transportation system safety and operational performance using existing and innovative Intelligent Transportation Systems technologies for economic benefit and improved quality of life.
Michigan Automotive R&D Facilities • 300+ Facilities • $10.8 Billion spent in-state on automotive -related R&D (2007 - MEDC)
MDOT VII Strategy • Support Industry in their development of VII programs and technologies to facilitate job creation and growth in Michigan • MDOT Test Beds in Southeast Michigan • Auburn Hills • Southfield • Farmington Hills / Novi • Data Use Analysis and Processing (DUAP) • Engaging new partners • Connected Vehicle Proving Center (CVPC) • Parking Karma
DUAP Purpose • Evaluate the uses and benefits of VII-related data in supporting MDOT • Responding to safety concerns • Managing traffic • Managing transportation assets • Support other ongoing VII activities • Technical development • Economic growth
DUAP Objectives • Identify MDOT uses for VII data • Develop algorithms to analyze and process VII data • Develop prototype applications for processed data for MDOT • Evaluate impacts of VII data and algorithms in the DOT

CVPC Concept • MEDC - $6M+ seed funding (including partner match) • Connect Partners Not Involved • Developmental In-Vehicle Components (suppliers) • Third Party Telematics Components) • Communications Component Developers • In Vehicle • Roadside • Backhaul • Network Developers • Data Users / Processors • Goal – Develop New Ideas, Components and Partners • Foster Growth in VII From Outside
Collaboration is Necessary • 250,000 Roadside Units • Lots of unknowns! • Deployment Cost • Permitting • Power • Communications • Maintenance • Operations • Legal / Liability • Telecommunications industry experts • 16-18 Million Vehicles sold per year in the US
Next Steps for MDOT • Continue with DUAP as our primary focus • Support US DOT Proof of Concept efforts • Novi / Farmington Hills • VII-C • Share information with our partners • www.michigan.gov/mdotvii
