Texas to be testing ground for automated vehicles
The Lone Star State was one of ten regions selected from an applicant pool of more than 60. It offers a unique statewide capability, starting with existing controlled environments on research campuses such as Texas A&M University, The University of Texas at Austin, and the Southwest Research Institute campus in San Antonio.
Texas’ additional testing environments are available in several municipal and regional areas, and include unique settings such as barrier-separated lanes, medical districts, transit bus corridors, and border crossings. These varied and unique test sites will help USDOT develop guidelines for automated vehicle technologies.
