Based on the range of possible outcomes, the cities hope to better understand the policies and programmatic choices available to mitigate negative impacts of AVs and ensure that they can accomplish the goals stated in their climate action, land use, and transportation plans. By working together, each city hopes to learn from each other—as well as cities from across North America—to achieve their climate-related goals. This report is the first of a two-phase project, both funded by the Bullitt Foundation. The Bullitt Foundation provided a grant to CNCA/USDN and subsequently to the Urbanism Next Center at the University of Oregon to fund research related to the impact of AVs on the Cities of Portland, Seattle, and Vancouver and their ability to successfully implement their climate action plans to reduce GHG emissions. Phase II is supported by a grant directly to the Urbanism Next Center and builds on Phase I to examine in greater detail a limited number of strategies and actions that the Cities could incorporate into their new mobility1 strategies.en-USCreative Commons BY-NC-ND 4.0-USAutonomous vehiclestransportation systemsgreenhouse gas emissionssocial equalityAVs in the Pacific Northwest: Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions in a Time of Automation, Baseline ReportOther
