OBJECTIVE:
The key objective of this project is to assess the potential of Automated Vehicles (AVs) in Last-Mile Deliveries (LMDs) in confined environments and prepare the software tool to plan efficient transition. Also, to figure out the perceptions of various stakeholders involved in the LMD regarding the use of AVs.
DESCRIPTION:
The translational research outcomes are the mathematical tools to better utilize AVs in LMD freight operations and estimate market shares and user acceptance based on various attributes of AVs, freight demand, and network.
