In preparing for widespread deployment of automated vehicles and shared mobility, it is important to understand the role of connectivity. This chapter discusses the importance of connectivity from the perspective of OEMs, other private sector representatives, and federal, state, and local government agencies. Key findings are that all stakeholders see great value in increased connectivity and that it is politically feasible, unlike other means of increasing transportation capacity, such as building more roads or congestion pricing. However, it is very easy to get caught up in “shiny object syndrome” with connectivity and forget about the purpose of implementing it: the human who is the end user. A number of research questions are outlined at the end of this chapter.
