Southern Arizona Institute of Transportation Engineers

Jennifer Toothaker (City of Tucson) gave a presentation on the technical infrastructure required to achieve the promise of Connected Vehicles and Autonomy. Vehicle-to-vehicle, vehicle-to-infrastructure, and vehicle-to-x will require massive amounts of data to be transmitted. DSRC, 4G, and 5G will all have a role enabling the “things” in the Intelligent Roadway Ecosystem. Arizona is a leader in the early deployment and operations of Smart Transportation Solutions and Jenn has been part of a group of individuals in advancing these efforts.
