The Future is Now: Working Together to Integrate Autonomous Vehicles

Cruise, Waymo, and Zoox are all testing passenger services in highly automated vehicles in San Francisco; some companies are also considering automated delivery services. Investors are growing impatient for return on their investment, and the automated vehicle industry is experiencing some consolidation. At the same time, these and other companies are announcing plans for expansion to new cities. This session will address how cities could approach land use planning and environmental review to maximize the potential safety and passenger convenience benefits of automated driving while minimizing negative consequences, such as increased vehicle miles traveled, congestion, and public transit delay.
