AvCo

The nation’s largest deployment of low-speed, all-electric automated shuttlefleets into transit service operating in mixed traffic! Located in Colorado.

Does dropping public transit fares boost ridership? Does it increase equity? What are the environmental impacts? Do the benefits outweigh the costs? Some of the outcomes and challenges from cities with free transportation.

#Autonomous vehicle projects like AvCo and the ones covered in this article are helping usher in the new normal of a #driverless future. https://t.co/F0MzpdzWL7

A recent report from the US National Association of City Transportation Officials surveys best practices from cities, and calls on decision-makers to commit to three actions to modernize bus service, increase reliability and attract new riders.

Want a FREE ride to beer? Oh, and enjoy networking with #smartcities peers while learning about initiatives that Alliance member @ViaColorado is working on?

Join us in Boulder on Friday, October 28 at 3 PM for a tour of Via's facility! https://t.co/GuFQlx9zG3

The @FTA_DOT recently opened a public RFI seeking questions and concerns about automated buses and shuttles testing on city streets. Programs like AvCo and AvCo's CityForward Playbook exist to make this technology safer and more familiar. https://t.co/UPegdZ6WQC

We take a step closer to fully autonomous mobility options with this hailing permit that allows operation without a safety operator, however there are still some conditions... https://t.co/71ROOdTMRN

As transit becomes more #autonomous, bus drivers will be more like airplane pilots supervising a highly automated control station. Federal regulators need to take action now and ensure public and operator safety is front of mind. https://t.co/et8IwgRYC9

When you are ready to consider or deploy #AV for your college, student, body, and stakeholders, we are here to help you plan, launch, operate and evaluate.

Why do college campuses present the perfect use-case for #autonomous vehicles (AV)? As a general rule, these environments have welcomed societal change and embraced the latest technologies. https://t.co/FhmL23xqCi

[AvCo @_AvCo]

Implementing any #publictransit deployment is inherently complex. AvCo's CityForward Playbook exists to take some of the guesswork out of the equation. Get in touch to learn more! https://t.co/sgL5vMbYYz

Great piece from @RM_Transit: "the technologies that benefit car travel, like automated vehicles will also benefit public transit, like automated buses and rail" https://t.co/PQHqd81jB3

City leaders hope that transit-oriented developments can provide more housing and retail while making it easier for people to take trips on public #transportation. https://t.co/d8r4SgApR1

.@Bridgestone's partnership with @May_Mobility will enable the AV startup to monitor the health of tires using Bridgestone's in-wheel sensors and predictive algorithms. Ultimately this will help May reduce the cost of AV ownership and improve fleet safety https://t.co/27QYjJxTzG

"Successful, in-demand new technologies grow vastly in popularity and become necessities for consumers before governments even begin to consider regulating them. By then, the toothpaste is out of the tube and it’s too late."

The release of safety standards for cars that don't contain steering wheels or drivers seats (like the EZ10s used in AvCo's Golden deployment) marks the first-of-its-kind recognition from the @USDOT that not all cars will have a steering column and pedals. https://t.co/XJnz6tAImk

It took engaged leadership, a stake in electric bus manufacturing, savvy navigation of disparate grant opportunities, and a willingness to bet on an electrified future that was eminently possible but had not yet been realized in the US. https://t.co/tBzBnOChFQ

.@_AvCo is a finalist in the @IDC Smart Cities North America Awards and now it's time to VOTE! The @coschoolofmines deployment in @CityofGolden was a free option for community members that addressed problems related to the current state of #transportation https://t.co/YZtD0eSgZX

Toot, toot! Here comes the autonomous, battery-powered rail car train! We're on board with Parallel Systems as they work to decarbonize freight while reducing greenhouse gas emissions and highway congestion. https://t.co/WSe3ZPVW78
