PRECURSOR SYSTEMS ANALYSES OF AUTOMATED HIGHWAY SYSTEMS ENTRY/EXIT IMPLEMENTATION. VOLUME SEVEN

This report presents the entry/exit implementation segment of the Precursor Systems Analyses of Automated Highway Systems (AHS) project. The analysis attempts to identify and analyze the most important issues with the roadway implementation of AHS entry and exit associated functions. The analysis takes a broad system engineering approach to assure that all entry/exit occasions on the AHS are considered. The top level issues addressed are the impact of strategies and configurations on the overall performance of the AHS the relative viability of strategies and physical configurations, and the design parameters and guidelines.
