Abstract
A traffic control system for an automatic driving vehicle includes a vehicle control system and a management and control system. The management and control system collects snow removal information by a snow removal information collector, and calculates traveling environment information of the snow-removed area by a snow-removed area traveling environment information calculator. The vehicle control system performs, by a first automatic driving controller, first automatic driving control that is made redundant by a control system based on map information and location information and by a control system based on external environment recognition information. The vehicle control system performs, by a second automatic driving controller, second automatic driving control that is made redundant by a control system based on the location information and the map information corrected using the traveling environment information of the snow-removed area and by a control system based on the external environment recognition information.
