Travel Time Impacts of Using Shared Automated Vehicles along a Fixed-Route Transit Corridor

Shared automated vehicles (SAVs) offering a fixed-route transit may compete well against privately operated vehicles. This paper analyzes the system costs of all travelers along a 6.4-kilometer (4-mile) corridor under different penetration rates for 10-seat SAVs. The work prices out walking, waiting...
