Tiivistelmä
The upcoming years are crucial to the development of automated driving in Europe. The technology has great potential to serve the public interest by improving the environmental sustainability of traffic and making transit safer and more enjoyable for everyone. Cities are finding solutions for more sustainable and cost effective mobility in the public transportation sector. If the demand for autonomous, electric vehicles suitable for public transport rises, is there enough supply to satisfy the need?
This volume is intended to provide views on the topic added with real-life procurement barriers and enablers from Sohjoa Baltic (Interreg Baltic Sea Region) project’s robot bus pilots from Norway, Poland, Finland, Estonia and Latvia. The lessons learned are compiled into recommendations of what should happen for this type of mobility service succeed. This publication identifies the main requirements that must be fulfilled for an automated vehicle to run on public roads. Examples from practice illustrate the explanations.
The Sohjoa Baltic Roadmap to Automated Electric Shuttles in Public Transport volume The Procurement Challenges provides an overview of the procurement issues that arise when implementing automated buses as part of public transport.
This publication is a part of a five volume series produced in the Sohjoa Baltic project.
