This webinar will highlight UC Riverside researchers’ efforts to develop an Innovation Corridor testbed for enabling research in shared mobility, vehicle electrification, and connected and automated transportation. Developed as part of the City of Riverside’s Smart-City initiative, this Innovation Corridor consists of a six-mile section of University Avenue between the UC Riverside campus and downtown Riverside, and supports various transportation modes including passenger vehicles, trucks, transit, bicycles, and various forms of micro-mobility. Researchers have instrumented this corridor with various infrastructure sensors and equipment to support research in shared, electric, connected, and automated transportation. Thus far, the team has equipped the corridor with roadside communications equipment, advanced traffic signal controllers, and video systems at several key intersections to help improve safety, mobility and environmental sustainability. With this initial instrumentation, researchers have carried out connected vehicle experimentation that utilizes the signal phase and timing data from these intersections to adjust vehicle speeds to smooth traffic flow and reduce emissions. In parallel, the team has set up a high-fidelity simulation environment of the Innovation Corridor, which can be used to design and evaluate potential future connected and automated vehicle strategies with different levels of electrification. The researchers are also using these models to determine what types of shared mobility systems will be successful in the city. A number of future projects are already planned for the Innovation Corridor, including installing air quality sensors along the roadway and investigating the effects of traffic management strategies on local air quality.
