2 Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAV) The UK Government strategic objectives for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAV) are to ensure: the UK has a vibrant, world-leading connected and autonomous vehicle industry. UK research on connected and autonomous vehicles is effective, targeted at delivering value for the UK, and coordinated. the UK remains one of the best places in the world to develop and use connected and autonomous vehicles. connected and autonomous vehicles in the UK are secure by design and handle data appropriately.

3 Presentation Title (edit this in Insert > Header and Footer, then click 'Apply to All') 3 UK Government aims for C-ITS Connected and autonomous vehicles incorporate a range of different technologies, facilitating the safe, efficient movement of people and goods. Increased connectivity allows vehicles to communicate with their surrounding environment. This provides valuable information to the driver about road, traffic and weather conditions.

Published the Department for Transport s (DfT) code of practice for testing driverless cars. Investing in feasibility studies through collaborative research and development competitions. Established the Centre for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CCAV) to help ensure that the UK remains a world leader in developing and testing connected and autonomous vehicles by publishing a call for evidence on the UK s testing ecosystem for connected and autonomous vehicles. Establishing the A2/M2 Connected Vehicle Corridor

5 Stimulates cross-sector collaboration Connects regions Improves mobility for local population The goal a self sustaining CAV ecosystem Stimulates economic activity Develops world class talent Supports and attracts adjacent business Stimulates cross-sector activity & transfer Produces world class business & technical innovation Attracts funding Produces world class customer experiences Attracts entrepreneurs Attracts global industry players Attracts world class talent Moving Britain Ahead OFFICIAL 6 August 17 5

8 Presentation Title (edit this in Insert > Header and Footer, then click 'Apply to All') 8 CAV Testing Ecosystem A CAV testing Ecosystem is being developed from the collaborative research and development competitions. This Ecosystem will link with the A2/M2 Corridor.

9 Presentation Title (edit this in Insert > Header and Footer, then click 'Apply to All') 9 Hybrid C-ITS services roll out Alongside established ITS- G5 technology it is important to examine the benefits that cellular communications can offer. The professional view appears to be that CAV technology will move more towards Hybrid communications as it progresses. Testing the capabilities now is essential to develop interoperable specifications and standards.

10 Presentation Title (edit this in Insert > Header and Footer, then click 'Apply to All') 10 View on UK Hybrid Communications TESTFEST The intention is to use the A2/M2 Connected vehicle Corridor to demonstrate the potential of hybrid communications. This is dependent on the delivery of both infrastructure and back office systems by the partnership between Department for Transport, Highways England, Kent County Council and Transport for London. Initial planning of the Hybrid Communications TESTFEST is underway with the full scope and objectives to be agreed by all InterCor partners.

11 Presentation Title (edit this in Insert > Header and Footer, then click 'Apply to All') 11 The basis of a Hybrid Communications Test As part of InterCor we have agreed a high level architecture for Hybrid Communication. The approach to interoperability is also agreed and the TESTFEST will be based on these concepts.
