Using a GIS-based analysis, the road network of the greater Zurich area is examined for its suitability for highly automated vehicles. The result is a map of the entire road network showing the suitability of individual road sections based on static environmental conditions. A second GIS-based analysis captures possible land-use changes as indirect effects of the transformation of the mobility system. Based on this analysis, it will be argued which possible services of automated vehicles can be meaningfully deployed in the respective suitable part of the road network. Influences on the attractiveness of locations in the selected area types are presented and potentials for internal development are shown. Finally, existing spatial and transport policies are examined and further developed in relation to requirements during this important transition period.
