European cities soon to be ready for autonomous vehicles

(Université de Genève) Autonomous vehicles promise to be the next revolution in public transport. They should find their first users in suburban areas, which are less well served by traditional transportation networks. The AVENUE project consortium, led by the University of Geneva (UNIGE) and funded by the European Commission, will identify the needs and motivations of their future users, meet many of the technological and regulatory challenges, and design new business models, allowing these new services to develop.
