To build on a project recently completed for the Oregon Department of Transportation (DOT), processes and tools were developed to prioritize the implementation of connected vehicle (CV) applications. Internal mechanisms for addressing CV development and deployment at the Oregon DOT were assessed; the technical maturity of each potential CV application was scanned, reviewed, and assessed; preliminary goals were developed; prospective CV applications were linked; and applications that fit with the potential role of the Oregon DOT in advancing these initiatives were refined, prioritized, and ranked. A shared vision and business plan that prioritizes CV applications for Oregon is recommended. An internal effort aimed at producing a small set of priority CV applications for further development is described. This effort culminated in a CV application prioritization workshop that included a priority mapping exercise, discussion of the CV concept, and an initial mapping of goals and applications. The workshop identified seven near-term priority CV applications for the Oregon DOT; 12 applications that the Oregon DOT will monitor (and possibly collaborate on with others in the future); and eight applications that the Oregon DOT will monitor but that will be led by others. The Oregon DOT has used the results of this effort as a springboard for hiring new staff dedicated to CV policy, forming a CV steering team, and launching a CV business plan. The process and tools can be used by other states and transportation agencies in their CV application prioritization processes.
