Abstract:

At a recent hearing of the House Subcommittee on Highways and Transit ‘‘new and exciting’’ developments in transportation were presented to the membership and were related to autonomous vehicles, connected vehicles, intelligent transportation systems, and mobility on demand technologies. The public view of technology in transportation is largely associated with these subjects and related to topics such as artificial intelligence, image recognition, connectivity, autonomous systems, big data, complex data analytics, virtual reality, blockchain, advanced materials, and cybersecurity. New and transformative transportation technology is not exclusively associated with these applications. Many of these technologies have been or are currently being introduced to solve problems with infrastructure and more specifically with the pavements people drive on every day. Specifically, the asphalt pavement industry continues to utilize the benefits derived from advanced solid mechanics, image processing, complex data analy- tics, advanced materials, and big data. The search for new technologies and methods to build, reconstruct, rehabili- tate, and maintain roads, streets, and highways continues.
