Shared Automated Vehicles (SAV) promise a future in which shared, driverless vehicles safely get people from place to place, giving people better access to safer, greener transportation.
The Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC)’s Innovative Deployments to Enhance Arterials for Shared Automated Vehicles (IDEA SAV) grant program will help Bay Area cities, counties and transit operators develop shared, automated vehicle pilot programs serving people with disabilities and lower-income communities.
To help Bay Area cities, counties and transit agencies develop shared, automated vehicle technology, MTC has launched a technical assistance grant program to fund pilot projects. This funding will support innovative shared, automated vehicle service for people with disabilities and people in lower-income communities.
