Dubai: Dubai could soon roll out a network of driverless electric pods running in lanes roughly the width of a bicycle path, following an agreement signed on Wednesday, February 4, between Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) and Glydways.
The project marks the launch of the first automated transit network in the emirate, a new form of public transport designed to provide round-the-clock first- and last-mile journeys.
But how will it help alleviate congestion and traffic, and will it connect with Dubai’s existing public transport network such as the Metro?
