C-V2X Technology Reaches U.S. Milestone with the First “Day One Deployment District” at the ITS World Congress 2025
- The 5GAA Day One Deployment Guide was instrumental in enabling the largest C-V2X deployment during the “Day One Deployment District” in Atlanta.
- 5GAA members demonstrated real-world C-V2X applications showing immediate public value and nationwide scalability.
ATLANTA, U.S. – 3 September 2025 — The U.S. connected vehicle ecosystem took a major step forward as Atlanta became home to the nation’s first “Day One Deployment District” for Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) technology. The 5GAA Vehicle-to-Infrastructure Communications Day One Deployment Guide was instrumental as a benchmark for C-V2X roadside infrastructure installations such as those earning the spotlight at the ITS World Congress 2025 for the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) and the permanent enhancements for the downtown district.
5GAA members played a key role in showcasing ready-now applications for C-V2X technology in a live urban traffic environment and the clear potential for deployment in other states and cities.
This milestone comes at a moment when vulnerable road user traffic fatalities remain near the highest levels ever recorded, and with traffic congestion costing the U.S. economy more than $36 billion[1] annually. With an estimated nationwide deployment cost of $6.5 billion, as estimated in the ITS America National V2X Deployment Plan, C-V2X offers a powerful solution to enhance road safety.
“Day One Deployment District” also builds a bridge for establishing the C-V2X ecosystem in Atlanta, as OEMs progress from pilot projects toward production-ready architectures. Live demonstrations by 5GAA members and other industry leaders illustrated how C-V2X can offer immediate public value through:
- Faster emergency response with traffic signal preemption and real-time alerts
- Enhancing safety for vulnerable road users
- Lower local agency expenses, reducing costs for school buses and public fleets

A Framework for Dynamic Trustworthiness Assessment in Cooperative and Automated Vehicles
Connected and Automated Vehicles are expected to make critical decisions based on data from external sources, yet current approaches to security and safety do not address a fundamental question: How much can the content of this data be trusted?
This White Paper tackles this largely unsolved problem by introducing a dynamic trust assessment framework centred on Actual Trustworthiness Level and Required Trustworthiness Level – metrics that quantify the residual uncertainty about whether external data or system behavior can be trusted based on available evidence and how much trust is needed to meet the operational and safety requirements of the current context. This methodology is intentionally designed to be generic, allowing for different implementations that adapt to evolving operational and organizational contexts. A detailed Automated Emergency Braking use case illustrates how the methodology can be instantiated in a real-world scenario.
The Paper concludes by identifying open standardization gaps and proposing directions for future harmonization of trust assessment in cooperative and connected mobility ecosystems.
