We deployed and offered public transportation services in 8 European sites, we raised awareness of the advantages of AVs to the larger public, developed guidelines and recommendations for the different actors, improved the operation of the AVs, in reply to the real needs of public transportation operators ans passengers, etc etc etc …
In this final event, taking place in Parc Olympic de Lyon at Decines, France, the Keolis-Lyon site, we will present the project work and achievements, including a live demo of a functional public transportation service.Avenue Closing Event AGENDA 20102022FINAL_detail

Are autonomous vehicles usable and accessible by persons with reduced mobility?
PRMs are not a homogeneous user group. Their needs for using public transport are depending on the type and degree of disability and the context of use.
This webinar focusses on the special requirements of PRM for AVs resulting from the fact that assistance from a driver is not available when booking, paying, finding, embarking or debarking the shuttle and during the ride, especially in unexpected situations.
