Connected & Autonomous Vehicles (CAV) Impacts Committee
Purpose:
To a) Track advancements of the CAV technologies and evaluate potential impacts of the advancements on transportation and development policy, research, and practice; b) Inform relevant entities for preparation in adapting to the potential changes; and c) Foster collaborations between CAV technology providers and transportation agencies and companies.

International Conference on Transportation & Development
June 14–June 17, 2023 | Austin, TX
ASCE's flagship conference in transportation and development, co-located with ASCE's longstanding specialty conference on pavement engineering for an invaluable experience of two conferences in one.
