Coming soon to 95 and 495: Automated vehicles

95-2

You will soon see automated vehicles on 495 and 95 Express Lanes in the coming months. Transurban and Virginia Tech’s Transportation Institute are researching and testing automated vehicles. The project is being called the Virginia Automated Corridors Initiative. Officials say the Express Lanes allow Transurban to create a closed system for testing that won’t impede drivers. There is no firm timeline to begin testing the vehicles.
