Self Driving Cities
Self Driving Cities connects academic researchers, government, and industry in the urban mobility space
Our mission is to collect and analyze data to answer policy questions like these:
-
How will Autonomous Vehicles change our cities?
-
How will different regulations around AVs affect congestion, air pollution, land use, parking?
-
How should Mobility as a Service (MaaS) technologies and industries be regulated?
-
How can MaaS transportation capacity be optimized?
-
How can new technologies be integrated into the existing urban mobility network?
-
How can innovation and competition be encouraged?
Outcomes
We aim to improve quality of life through building greener cities by:
-
Enabling healthier lifestyles
-
Reducing congestion and harmful emissions
-
Optimizing use of MaaS resources
