Stagecoach’s ground‑breaking autonomous bus project: Pioneering a new era in public transport
Stagecoach and its partners are proud to operate the UK’s first registered commercial bus service using a fleet of autonomous vehicles. The research and service design work that has gone into making AB1 a reality in East Scotland has been trailblazing. It has allowed the operator to demonstrate a real-world use case for self-driving technology. Stagecoach is doing it on real roads, carrying thousands of people, and it is helping to build public trust in this emerging industry by operating a safe, passenger-centric bus service… that drives itself.
