ASCE 21 Provisions for ATN Technology• Seated and Standing Distinctions in Acceleration and

Deceleration Rates• Off-Line Station Train Control Functional Requirements

Martin Lowson Presentation at 2013 APM Conference:“I feel that the Ultra design has been better because of our utilization of the APM standards.  I have also found that the committee is prepared to be respond effectively to issues bought to their attention.  An example is off-line stations, which are a feature of PRT systems, but are not a feature in conventional APMs.”

IEC Automated Urban Guided Transport Safety Requirements – IEC 62267

• International committee worked for 8 years to create 62267

• Defined by Metro Systems with:• Driverless Train Operations (DTO)• Unmanned Train Operations (UTO)

• Automated Metro systems are now the norm in Europe and Asia for regional scale transit applications

• Other IEC standards describe the functional requirements of the Command and Control System 12

Paris Metro – First Application of IEC Safety Standard

• Process started to convert old lines to unmanned fully automated operation

• Line 1 conversion has occurred while in service• 750,000 riders a day • Retrofit of full ATC • Platform edge doors

Grand Paris Express is a planned network of new lines that will ring Paris – all 200 kilometers will be fully automated.Source: RATP, Bruno Marguerite

Proposal Made at the TRB 2013 Stanford Workshop on Road Vehicle Automation• IEC Technical Report 62267-2

Hazard Analysis at Top System Level Provides a Starting Point

• ATS/APM Consensus Standards Provide a Model for AV Safety Requirements

• Proposed Approach Follows a Phased Process for Applying the Hazard Analysis

1. Perform APM/ATS Standards Review

2. Create Industry HA Framework for AV/CV Technology to Transit & Controlled Environments

3. Evolve HA Framework for Application to Autonomous Vehicles in Mixed Flow

Evolution of Automated Transit Networks to Automated Transit Vehicle Applications

• Toyota IMTS Provides a Glimpse of the Future World of Transit Service

• Supervisory Control/ Automated Dispatch System Provides:Continuous Optimization of

Fixed Route Service Routes within the Highest Activity Parts of the Network

Demand Response Service to Meet Dynamic Ridership In Lowest Activity Parts of the Network

Evolution of Automated Transit Networks to Automated Transit Vehicle Applications• Automated Roadway Vehicles (i.e., Robotic Vehicles)

Allow a Transitway System Without Track/Switches

• Portions of Transitway Can Be Grade Separated and Portions At-Grade With Limited Automotive Traffic Interactions

• Off-Line Stations Allow:

Direct Origin to Destination Service

Highest Demand Patterns Efficiently Served by a Corresponding Portion of the Operating Fleet

• Maximum Passenger Carrying Efficiency for each Seat-Mile of Vehicle Service

What’s the Point? Premise: Supervisory Control Systems with demand-responsive capability, when combined with a hybrid operation of direct station to station dispatch and conventional service, allow more cost effective systems to be built and operated, while providing passengers with a higher level of service.

Benefits of the Hybrid Approach• Off-line stations allow more frequent passage of smaller, independent vehicles on the main line

• Smaller vehicles lower the civil construction cost through reduced size of guideway/stations

Page 31: THE EVOLUTION OF APM SYSTEMS TO ATN SYSTEMS USING DRIVERLESS CAR TECHNOLOGY 1

Benefits of the Hybrid Approach (cont.)• Hybrid operations provide service levels competitive with conventional mass transit

• Direct-to-destination service reduces passenger travel time and reduces empty vehicle (non-revenue) seat-miles

• Flexibility of hybrid operations allows efficiency to be optimized between demand responsive and conventional modes

Page 32: THE EVOLUTION OF APM SYSTEMS TO ATN SYSTEMS USING DRIVERLESS CAR TECHNOLOGY 1

Conclusions • Hybrid Operations have the potential to reduce vehicle size and associated costs, increase revenue per seat-mile, and improve passenger service by the combination of: Demand Responsive/Direct to Destination

Operations

Conventional Fixed Route Operations

• Hybrid Operations could radically change our concept of what constitutes high-capacity transit

Alain’s Instructions

Alain’s Initial Invitation August 22nd and September 5th • Any chance that you could come over to Washington in October and speak in my

session at the Podcar Conference .   A followup to your presentation and comments at Stanford would be ideal for this conference. 

•   Also, you  might be able to comment on ASCE's  APM Standards and how they may help/hinder the evolution of driverless cars as a shared-ride "transit" option.

• I'm trying to put together a session that bridge the advances in vehicle automation (those advances that lead to the ability to remove the driver from the vehicle and have it operate in mixed (with conventional cars & trucks) traffic on existing streets and highways ) with the provision of shared-ride "transit"(a fleet of vehicles owned and operated by some entity(ies) that offer mobility to the general public.) 

• Here was a thought I had: "Evolving APMs to ATNs using Driverless car technology" with some emphasis on the "Standards" especially given ASCE's  APM Standards

My final response on September • Okay, I can run with this topic.  It actually ties into a technical paper I did with

Gene Nishinaga for the 2005 APM Conference.  It was called “Optimizing AGT Applications Through Demand-Responsive Control Systems”.  I will use this specific topic that you have recommended, with a minor change to the title if possible – “The Evolution of APM Systems to ATN Systems Using Driverless Car Technology”.
