Project Summary
Stop-and-go traffic wastes fuel, increases crashes, and disproportionately burdens disadvantaged travelers. This project supports the scale up of a pilot project led by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority on I-680/SR-24 that will deliver speed advisories via smartphone to over 1,000 commuters to reduce hard-braking and improve traffic flow. It will establish data standards, equity safeguards, and cost benchmarks to support broad deployment of connected vehicle technology to combat congestion and improve safety.
