EMERGING TECHNOLOGY
We stay ahead of the curve by closely tracking emerging technology and exploring how it can improve mobility in our region. As transit continues to evolve, the CONNECT Beyond team is committed to understanding what’s next and how it could benefit our communities. That’s where the Centralina Clean Fuels Coalition (CCFC) comes in. CCFC works with public and private fleets, local governments, elected officials, the private sector and the general public.
Centralina Clean Fuels Coalition promotes, accelerates and expands the use of alternative fuels and advanced vehicle technologies in the transportation sector and reduces petroleum dependence.
The Carolina Alternative Fuel Infrastructure for Storm Resilience Plan addresses disaster preparedness, recovery and resilience by promoting alternative fuel vehicles in emergency response fleets. CONNECT Beyond staff documents the storm’s impact on infrastructure, tracks alternative fuel supplies, provides best practices for resilience and shares future recommendations.
The Regional Transportation Systems Management and Operations and Intelligent Transportation Systems Architecture and Strategic Deployment Plan is a partnership with local, regional, state and federal agencies. It explores technology strategies that enhance safety, reliability and capacity across existing and planned transportation corridors through combined investments and training.
Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) can transform how people travel, how communities grow and how infrastructure is designed and built. To better understand their impact, CONNECT Beyond staff held a workshop series to raise awareness about CAV technology and its impact.
