📝 Abstract
Smart freight corridors offer a practical pathway for connected and automated vehicle (CAV) deployment in freight transportation, but physical experimentation is expensive and existing approaches rely on predefined control policies that cannot capture adaptive behaviors. This paper presents an agent-based modeling (ABM) framework coupling a physical infrastructure layer, a connectivity layer (V2X), and a decision layer integrating reinforcement learning (RL) and multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) for platoon formation and charging coordination. We evaluate three scenarios (Baseline, Assisted, and Cognitive) using throughput, congestion, energy, emissions, and robustness metrics. Preliminary results indicate that the Cognitive scenario achieves higher throughput and lower congestion than the baseline, while the Assisted scenario delivers meaningful energy savings per kilometer through platooning. Sensitivity analysis shows that the throughput advantage of the smart corridor widens under conditions with high demand and that MARL coordination extracts greater utilization from fixed charging capacity than rule-based assignment.
