The pilot is a technology-enabled express lane on I-94 that is used for testing a combination of physical and digital infrastructure to improve roadway safety and expand the benefits of CAVs. The design and development of this pilot is a joint effort between MDOT, Cavnue and industry partners.
The pilot will allow the partners to learn, test and validate the technology deployed, with the goal of building on these insights to develop a larger first-of-its-kind connected corridor along I-94. This broader project, called the I-94 CAV corridor, will aim to improve safety, reduce congestion and emissions, and accelerate the benefits of CAVs.
