Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The number of casualties caused by traffic accidents has grown significantly in recent years. More importantly, road traffic crashes frequently involve regular road users such as pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists and have thus become one of the world’s largest issues linked to public health and injury prevention.
In this Special Issue, we will explore new technologies and methodologies to identify contributing factors to crashes and implement potential countermeasures. Particular attention will be paid to studies that address the use of big data in road safety management.
If you are interested in this topic, you are welcome to contribute to this Special Issue. I look forward to receiving your submissions soon.

Title: A Systematic Literature Review of Autonomous and Connected Vehicles in Traffic Management
Author: Alanazi
Highlights: This paper highlights existing research on the many types of AVs and CVs methodologies used in traffic management, along with suggested fixes and purposes methods to avoid junction conflicts, increase traffic harmonization, and environmental/social objectives. The goal is to offer a community-driven beginning for a better investigation of creating traffic management strategies that investigate suitable solutions regarding various traffic circumstances.
