Abstract
Transportation is constantly updating with new technologies and adapting for its users as they choose to use the new options that are being made. This study contributes knowledge on adaptation to connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) in planning and operating future airport landside facilities. It consists of five parts. The first part describes the facilities and their interaction. In part two, the requirements for adaptation to the CAV are defined. In part three, the role of advanced methods and technologies are identified for ensuring that users will receive their expected level of service and also the airport management will benefit from adaptation to CAVs. Part four describes the research framework and its components based on microscopic level investigation of level-of-service and capacity factors. Finally, in part five, conclusions are offered on obtaining beneficial results from the application of CAVs in the landside part of airports.
