Reshaping Urban Mobility with Autonomous Vehicles: Lessons from the City of Boston

This report summarizes findings from a three-year collaboration between the World Economic Forum and The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) to explore how autonomous vehicles could reshape the future of urban mobility. The project built on the collective insights generated from the Autonomous and Urban Mobility Working Group (Working Group) of the System Initiative on Shaping the Future of Mobility, composed of roughly 35 business executives from diverse industries (including automotive, technology, logistics, insurance, utilities and infrastructure) that convened for 10 full-day workshops and numerous conference calls.

Key findings

Mobility-on-demand will account for one-third of trips in Boston.

AV's impact on traffic will vary by neighborhood and be shaped by policy.

Collaboration enables rapid scaling of AV pilots.
