Abstract

A travel control system includes a permission unit that permits outermost periphery automatic traveling if predetermined permission conditions are satisfied. The permission conditions include a first condition and a second condition. The first condition is that a reference value corresponding to a working width Wof a work deviceis larger than a lateral width Wof the work device. The second condition is that the reference value is larger than a threshold value determined by a threshold value determination unit. The threshold value determination unit determines the threshold value based on a reference distance Dbetween a front end position of a work vehicleand a reference position SP at which the work deviceis switched from a working state to a non-working state.
