The AHS entry and exit systems must be consistent with the AHS goals of safety, throughput, user comfort, and environmental impact. The systems must be designed to enable the vehicles and operators to safely enter and exit the roadway at rates that ensure that the AHS system's throughput objectives are met. The entry and exit areas must enable processing and development of the vehicles with minimal discomfort to the operator. This task includes identifying measures of effectiveness (MOEs) for evaluating entry/exit strategies and land-use requirements for each RSC and will be closely tied to the AHS roadway development analysis (activity area H), automated check-in analysis (activity area B), and automated check-out analysis (activity area C). Thus, this work has a high priority similar to that of areas B, C, and H. We recommend that the performance of these activity areas be well coordinated.
