Urban traffic represents a serious challenge for European societies seeking effective and sustainable urban transport through technical solutions, business models and priority scenarios. The EU-funded SHOW project is realised by a consortium of 69 partners and applied in 20 European cities. It aims to estimate and evaluate the role of autonomous vehicles (AVs) in making urban transport more effective, sustainable and user friendly. The project will deploy a fleet of 74 AVs of all types including buses, taxis, MaaS connected automated cars and cargo vehicles for all transport users in both mixed traffic and dedicated lines operating under traffic speeds ranging from 18 to over 50km/h. The concept covers all urban automated mobility needs and all stakeholders' demands.
