The Mn/DOT Connected Vehicle Road User Fee Test (MRFT) is an extensive demonstrationproject undertaken in parallel with other Connected Vehicle Programs. Mn/DOT’s effortsinclude designing, building, and testing three new software applications that combine safety andmobility applications from the Connected Vehicle world with a mileage-based user feeapplication from the road user pricing world. The combination of these different types ofapplications causes challenges in balancing the need for detailed information to support safetyand mobility needs with protecting the privacy of the traveling public. A unique solution to thisdilemma has been developed and will be tested through the demonstration. This presentationwill provide a background of the conflicting needs of Connected Vehicle versus MBUFapplications and will summarize the solution being implemented in Minnesota.
