The U.S. Department of Transportation has designated the San Diego region as one of ten proving grounds for autonomous vehicles in the nation. The region has advanced features in its local transportation network and a global reputation as a high-tech hub for research and wireless innovations.
\n\u201cEsta es una gran noticia para la regi\u00f3n de San Diego\u201d, dijo el presidente de SANDAG y supervisor del condado, Ron Roberts. \u201cEstamos al comienzo de una nueva era del transporte, y es tremendamente emocionante para nuestra regi\u00f3n ser parte de una iniciativa nacional para fomentar las innovaciones y las mejores pr\u00e1cticas que permitir\u00e1n el despliegue seguro de veh\u00edculos sin conductor\u201d.
\nSANDAG, Caltrans y la Ciudad de Chula Vista presentaron conjuntamente la solicitud al gobierno federal para la designaci\u00f3n. La aplicaci\u00f3n obtuvo el apoyo de los principales fabricantes de autom\u00f3viles y empresas de tecnolog\u00eda, incluidos Toyota, Qualcomm, Teradata y DENSO International America Inc.

\n“The designated proving grounds will collectively form a Community of Practice around safe testing and deployment,” U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx said. “This group will openly share best practices for the safe conduct of testing and operations as they are developed, enabling the participants and the general public to learn at a faster rate and accelerating the pace of safe deployment.”
\nAs part of the nationwide pilot, proving ground sites will bring together auto manufacturers, local cities, public agencies and private companies to test autonomous vehicles on designated facilities. The test sites will share information and work together to develop best practices.
\n“Caltrans is proud to join with SANDAG, the City of Chula Vista, and private partners in envisioning, and preparing for, innovative technologies like autonomous vehicles on our roadways,” said Laurie Berman, director of Caltrans District 11, which covers San Diego and Imperial counties. “We are pleased that the U.S. Department of Transportation has chosen our region as one of ten national proving grounds \u2013 and the only one featuring a state\/regional\/local\/private partnership \u2013 to foster testing and share knowledge regarding automated vehicle technologies.” “This is great news for the City of Chula Vista,” said Chula Vista Mayor Mary Casillas Salas. “We look forward to working with the USDOT, SANDAG, and Caltrans in transforming transportation by testing the safe deployment of autonomous vehicles.”
\nLa regi\u00f3n de San Diego tiene tres entornos distintos de campo de pruebas: Los carriles expresos de la I-15
\nLos carriles expresos de la I-15 recorren 20 millas desde la SR 163 en San Diego hasta la SR 78 en Escondido. A menudo denominada autopista dentro de una autopista, la instalaci\u00f3n ya es un banco de pruebas local para la tecnolog\u00eda moderna de gesti\u00f3n del tr\u00e1fico. Incluye caracter\u00edsticas de \u00faltima generaci\u00f3n, como una barrera m\u00f3vil en la mediana central que permite reconfigurar los carriles de tr\u00e1fico, rampas de acceso directo que conectan con modernas estaciones de tr\u00e1nsito, nuevos servicios Rapid y un sistema de peaje din\u00e1mico que permite a los conductores solos usar el exceso de capacidad en los carriles para viajes compartidos por una tarifa.
\nEn 1997, antes de la finalizaci\u00f3n de Express Lanes, la I-15 fue el sitio de una demostraci\u00f3n de veh\u00edculos aut\u00f3nomos. La autopista de South Bay
\nOperada por SANDAG, South Bay Expressway es una instalaci\u00f3n con peaje de 10 millas que atraviesa el este de Chula Vista y brinda acceso a la frontera entre EE. UU. y M\u00e9xico. La carretera de peaje tiene una serie de activos de gesti\u00f3n del tr\u00e1fico que la hacen ideal para las pruebas de veh\u00edculos aut\u00f3nomos, incluidos los circuitos cerrados de televisi\u00f3n y un centro de operaciones que tiene espacio para el montaje de equipos.
