FABULOS - Bringing the robot buses to the streets of Helsinki

During the field testing phase of the FABULOS project, fleets of automated buses are tested in five of the partnering countries. In Helsinki, a fleet of three self-driving vehicles began operating on 14 April 2020. The fleet was supported by an on-demand mobile app and a Remote Control Centre. The vehicles ran along a circular route in Eastern Pasila, on a separate lane with speeds of up to 40 km/h. The route included crossroads with traffic lights, right turns, street side parking and a roundabout. More information on the FABULOS project.
