• Abstract:
  This project seeks to examine how transit work will transform as autonomous vehicle (AV) technology is applied to the complex operating environment of public transit. While there is a legacy of autonomous transport in controlled settings such as airport “people movers,” recent technological advancements target both constrained busways and unconstrained street routes. Many municipalities are already piloting AV shuttles or planning to deploy buses with a range of autonomous systems, from driver assistance to fully autonomous routes.
