Abstract: This study was conducted to identify an optimal driving behaviour of connected and automated vehicles (CAV) that can reduce traffic congestion and GHG emissions under different traffic demand levels. The study employed traffic simulations at the meso scale for the City of Ottawa, Canada, to assess traffic performance and used correlation models to estimate GHG emissions. Aggressive CAVs showed the greatest potential to enhance traffic performance and reduce GHG emissions under all traffic demand levels. The results show that Aggressive CAVs can increase highway capacity and lower vehicle travel time in comparison to Driver Operated Vehicles (DOVs) or CAVs with a less aggressive driving style. The findings of the study indicate that CAVs with aggressive driving behavior can play a crucial role in enhancing traffic performance and in helping to mitigate the adverse impact of transportation on the environment. The results of this study aim to encourage regulatory bodies to adopt effecti ve CAV-related policies that can enhance traffic performance and reduce GHG emissions. (More)
