Abstract
This paper describes the investigation of traffic operations on both dedicated and open e-Lanes. The scenario is regarded as a migratory stage towards eventually full automation of urban principal road traffic operation. The traffic operations were investigated using a be-spoke microscopic simulation model. It was found that under certain Dual Mode Vehicle (DMV) demand level and at certain headway policy, the open e-Lane operation can be further improved by migrating to a dedicated e-Lane operation.
