Project: Transition Challenges and Business Models for Green City Architecture Integration
The proposed Green Cities Architecture (GCA) for Urban Traffic Management seeks to leverage advances in short-range and wide-area data communications, pollution sensing, and electronic control systems in vehicles in order to reduce traffic congestion and pollution. Achieving these goals will require changes in the transportation system: primarily changes to vehicles, roadway infrastructure, and traffic signals, but also changes in driver preferences and individual travel behavior. This working paper outlines the goals of GCA, the changes that will be needed to achieve those goals, and the regulatory and business pathways to achieve those changes.
This work product was created as part of UCLA ITS’s work on the Green Cities Architecture project.
