Autonomous Shuttle Passenger Trials

Smart Cambridge, Greater Cambridge Partnership and Aurrigo.

Cambridge is among the first smart cities in the UK to trial custom-made autonomous passenger shuttles alongside other road traffic.

Madingley Road Park and Ride

Thank you for your interest in our passenger trials.We will be running rides on a short section of the route, starting and ending at Madingley Road Park &amp; Ride, for up to four passengers at a time. Rides are taking place during the day, on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 8th June to 29th June 2021. Evening rides are also available on Thursday 10th and 24th June.Important: If you require wheelchair access please contact us before you make your booking as currently not all of the prototype vehicles are able to accommodate wheelchairs - email us at: smart.cambridge@cambridgeshire.gov.uk.Please be aware that this is a research and development autonomous vehicle trial using prototype vehicles. We will endeavour to adhere to the timetable, but vehicles could be taken out of service at any time without prior warning. As such, we cannot guarantee your ride will go ahead but will aim to give you as much notice as possible (by email) in the event of a known cancellation.All passengers must wear a seatbelt and CCTV is in operation within the vehicles at all times. All passengers will be required to wear a face covering for the duration of the ride, unless medically exempt. Please note that all passengers must be over 12 years old, and anyone under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.

Safety operators will be onboard the vehicle during the project trials and are able to regain manual control of the vehicle immediately at any time if required. The vehicles will run at a maximum of 20mph, and are fully electric.The trials will support research into potential driverless shuttle services to link the city’s other research campuses with the rail stations and Park &amp; Ride sites, and further explore how smart technology could be used to cut congestion and improve public transport.For more information on the autonomous trials and the vehicles themselves, please visit: <a href="https://www.greatercambridge.org.uk/smart/autonomous-vehicles" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">www.greatercambridge.org.uk/smart/autonomous-vehicles</a> or <a href="https://aurrigo.com/autoshuttle/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">aurrigo.com/autoshuttle/</a>.
