Autonomous Vehicles in Public Transportation

Autonomous vehicles will transform public transit, bringing efficiency, accessibility, and enhanced safety.

They improve first-mile/last-mile connections and reduce emissions, creating cleaner, more convenient urban

journeys. AVs enhance mobility for all, from seniors to the disabled,

and promise safer travel by minimizing human error. However, challenges include potential

job displacement, the need for new infrastructure, and harmonized regulations. Realizing this future

requires addressing these impacts and ensuring thoughtful integration to support public transit.
