Smart highways have been a focal point in China's road transportation sector in recent years, garnering significant attention from government departments, highway operators, industries, and academia. A series of demonstration projects have been implemented, yielding substantial results. Currently, the field of smart highways still faces numerous challenges. There is an urgent need to integrate interdisciplinary theories, fully apply cutting-edge technologies represented by new-generation digitalization and artificial intelligence, and align with China's social structure, governance models, and practical needs. This will facilitate the transition from "information guidance" to "collaborative optimization" and further to "autonomous operation," thereby supporting the national goal of building a country with a strong transportation network and contributing to China's transportation modernization.
To this end, the editorial office of the Journal of Highway and Transportation Research and Development has organized dozens of domestic professors, scholars, and experts to systematically summarize the research, development, and applications in the field of smart highways and related areas over recent decades. Their work covers the evolution of smart highways, traffic information monitoring, key technologies in traffic control, traffic safety, vehicle-road coordination, and autonomous driving, while also offering insights into future prospects. This is a highly significant undertaking for the digital and intelligent development of China's highway transportation, providing a wealth of resources for academic research and technological development in related fields.
