Road infrastructure. Automated vehicle interactions. Reference Framework Release 1. | Status: Current

1 Scope This document provides the current road equipment suppliers’ visions and their associated short term and medium-term priority deployment scenarios. Potential functional/operational standardization issues enabling a safe interaction of road equipment/infrastructure with automated vehicles in a consistent and interoperable way are identified. This is paving the way for a deeper analysis of standardization actions which are necessary for the deployment of priority short-time applications and use cases. This deeper analysis will be done at the level of each priority application/use case by identifying existing standards to be used, standards gaps/overlaps and new standards to be developed to support this deployment. The release 1 is focusing on short-term (2022 to 2027) and medium-term deployment. Further releases will update this initial vision according to short term deployment reality. The objectives of this document are to:

• — Support the TC 226 and its WG12 work through the development of a common vision of the roles and responsibilities of a modern, smart road infrastructure in the context of the automated vehicle deployment from SAE level 1 to SAE level 5. The roles and responsibilities of the road infrastructure are related to its level of intelligence provided by functions and data being managed at its level.
• — Promote the road equipment suppliers’ and partners’ visions associated to their short-term and medium- term priorities to European SDOs and the European Union with the goal of having available relevant, consistent standards sets enabling the identified priority deployment scenarios.

NOTE Road equipment/infrastructure includes the physical reality as its digital representation (digital twin). Both need to present a real time consistency.
