Self Driving Cars coming to North Texas for Testing


   Our one and only Patrica Lloyd did a fantastic job showing off the new autopilot on a news broadcast with CBS 11 (KTVT) this last week.

   The University of Texas at Arlington and the City of Arlington were selected as a potential site to start testing due to its urban environment & adequate room for self driving vehicles to operate safely.

“The UTA campus offers an opportunity for deployment of AVs in a low-speed and somewhat closed environment,” said a proposal  supporting the AV designation, written jointly by the University of Texas at Austin, Texas A&M University, and the Southwest Research Institute. “Given the large campus, there are many deployment opportunities, including on-road movement from remote parking areas and off-road movement within the main campus.”

Arlington's Entertainment district (which includes Six Flags Over Texas, AT&T Stadium, Globe Life Field, the Lincoln Square Mall, and the Arlington Convention Center) also provides opportunity to test and operate self automated transport and shuttle services from local hotels to events.Arlington's Entertainment Distract and UTA are not the only reasons the Federal Government selected the area. Parts of IH-30 from IH-35W in Fort Worth to IH-35E in Dallas was selected as a modern highway that is easily reversible, protected, managed. Expect to see driver less cars and transportation in the coming future in the aforementioned locations. Click the link hyper link below for more details.

Feds Include Arlington, UTA in Self-Driving Vehicle Study
