As a part of the U.S. DOT’s Connected Vehicle Research Program, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and ITS JPO contracted with Battelle Memorial Institute to develop a suite of transit connected vehicle (CV) safety and mobility applications. Two transit specific safety applications were developed: Pedestrian in Signalized Crosswalk Warning and Vehicle Turning Right in Front of Bus Warning. Three basic safety applications were also developed: Forward Collision Warning, Emergency Electronic Brake Lights, and Curve Speed Warning. These applications were introduced into the U.S. DOT’s Safety Pilot Model Deployment in Ann Arbor, MI via the Transit Safety Retrofit Package (TRP) project. Based on a preliminary analysis of the data, the TRP system and transit-specific applications were modified and improved. The project will be completed in May 2014. – See more at: http://www.pcb.its.dot.gov/t3/s140514_cv_transit_apps.asp#sthash.HXc6lmbJ.dpuf
