APPLICATIONS & USERS
Physical interface
Data interface
Applications Operator
Display of insights to operators and policy-
makers to facilitate decision-making and
enable control and optimization of road
and fleet O&M.
Power Connectivity
Provision of energy and communications
to power the technology and
transmit data to and from the roadside to
the cloud.

ROAD USERS ACTUATION
Information that can guide toward the “ideal state” is transmitted to L2+ vehicles.
APIsDigital Signs V2X Comms
L2+ vehicles receive
information from the infrastructure
to enhance perception and path planning.
Sensors
Vehicles and road state are detected.
Sensed data is aggregated and
interpreted and the “ideal state” is
calculated to provide feedback to L2+
vehicles.
Barriers Lighting Signaling Road Design
Interventions are made to the physical infrastructure to mitigate or eliminate
disengagement scenarios.
INTEGRATIONS
APIs
Information sent to OEMs to help with tech
ops & development.

We unlock capital and absorb demand risk to enable investment in roads of the future
Public investments in road infrastructure face three key challenges
Cavnue deploys private capital to align financial and technology risk with the public sector
30%of annual revenue linked to declining gas tax base
20-year cycleraises the stakes on bad technology investments
Risk aversemunicipal finance is less willing to make bets on technology and AV trends
>$100Bin private infrastructure capital in North America remains unallocated
Risk alignedinvestments fund new technology and anticipate future demand growth
Institutional backingenables Cavnue to effectively raise and deploy project financing

Technology Partnership Model
Government Partner• Evaluate benefits and support programmatic
approach to tech deployment• Expedite internal processes and reviews• Provide necessary data and access to
resources
• Unique expertise, particularly with regards to CAVs
• Financial support for planning, design, construction and operations
• Build/buy/partner technology integration• Partnerships with Auto/AV/Freight
industries
• Provide mobility, health, economic and connectivity benefits to all residents
• Leverage private sector investment in infrastructure to seek additional federal funding
• Develop clear understanding of issues to address for existing/future technology
• De-risk all aspects of integrated technology projects for government
• Build scalable products, including CAV lanes, for both other IOOs and Auto/AV/Freight industries
• Incentivize continuous innovation for both partners
Partnership Outcomes
14
• 2-4 months
• CAV Readiness Framework Analysis• Identify projects(s) to take into more
detailed development activities
• Full Issue Discovery Analysis• Concept of Operations for CAV and other
technology improvements• Option for instrumentation of corridor ROW• Implementation Agreement
Phase OneCAV Readiness Framework Analysis
Phase TwoCorridor CAV and Technology Plan
Phase ThreeImplementation
• Assess the readiness of the Port Authority portfolio of transportation assets specifically from the perspective of AV/CV applications, as per AASHTO’s NCHRP 20-24(112)
• Evaluate CAV lane needs (right of way configuration, civil design, traffic mix, congestion) and articulate the economic benefits of CAV in a given area
• 4-6 months
• Conduct safety, traffic, civil, technological, and financial feasibility of CAVs and technology improvements on a project(s)
• Include stakeholder workshops and industry partnership (OEMs, terminal operators, freight/logistics companies, EV Charging company) meetings
