The Impacts of Autonomous Vehicles on Urban Transportation Systems
With the rapid growth and advancement in technology, urban transportation is one of
the critical sectors experiencing the significant influence of digitization, specifically in
relation to the emergence of autonomous vehicles (AVs). According to Rahman and Thill
(2023), technological advancements in the transportation sector, including but not limited to
transmission systems, cruise controls, and emission control systems, among others, remain
integral parts of human life and reorganize the structure of the urban areas. With the rapidly
growing concerns for climate change, AVs stand out as one essential category of options for
ensuring safe movement while ensuring transportation means are sustainable and ecofriendly. Autonomous vehicles remain one of the key developments in the transportation
sector integral to easing human mobility, urban transportation, and overall ecological
sustainability. Nevertheless, it is crucial to acknowledge that traffic congestion in urban areas
is one of the pressing issues in urban transport, which requires paying attention to sustainable
and eco-friendly measures to address. Therefore, this research paper seeks to answer the
question: How does implementing autonomous vehicles (AVs) ease urban traffic congestion?
