Abstract: This document deals with the implementation of virtual tracks as an innovative element for autonomous vehicle navigation. A virtual track improves the driving accuracy, safety, and efficiency of autonomous vehicle operation in various environments. The methodology provides a theoretical framework; analyzes legislative (Czech and EU legal framework) and technical aspects, as well as traffic psychological aspects; defines infrastructure requirements; and describes implementation procedures. It also assesses the impact of technology on the existing transport infrastructure. The outputs of the methodology serve autonomous vehicle operators, municipalities, and legislative authorities as a key tool for planning and implementing autonomous systems. The document contributes to the development of intelligent mobility and the future integration of autonomous vehicles into mainstream traffic.
