The connected and automated vehicles (CAV) space is rapidly shifting the spotlight from ideas and concepts, to deployment and implementation. The CAV discussions are also sharpening the focus at the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), where the Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSM&O) Program aims to develop a sustainable Florida Connected and Automated Vehicles Initiative (Florida-CAVI) with the following objectives: Leverage emerging technologies (ET) for research with a goal to field-deploy; Invite industry to Florida for availing testing and implementation opportunities; Create a CAVI-friendly and deployment-centric infrastructure; and Develop cross-disciplinary institutional framework. Florida-CAVI is a result of agile planning with a goal to deploy the vehicle-to-infrastructure technologies with the expectation that vehicle-to-other and person-to-other technologies will follow. Note 'person' rather than pedestrian, because of the focus on road users including bicyclists, pedestrians, and scooter drivers.
