PAVE Europe Virtual Panel “Equity and Accessibility: How can AVs help to leave no-one behind?”

PAVE Europe Virtual Panel “Equity and Accessibility: How can AVs help to leave no-one behind?”

CCAM (Connected, Cooperative and Automated Mobility) is not just about self-driving cars but has many public and shared transport applications as well. However, automated or semi-automated driving presents challenges to several groups of passengers, especially in scenarios where no driver is present. This one-hour webinar will explore existing public transport services in Europe using CCAM-enabled vehicles: What were the successful use cases? What barriers were encountered with respect to accessibility, in particular with potentially vulnerable groups? How were staff deployed (safety driver, on-board assistant or remote operator) and why? 

Speakers will include experts from the SINFONICA project, which is creating strategies, methods, and tools to engage CCAM users, providers, and other stakeholders develop public and shared transport services using CCAM that are inclusive and equitable for all citizens. Invited panelists from outside the SINFONICA project will also give their perspectives in a discussion session.
