Should autonomous vehicles learn to function within the current urban infrastructure, or should special provisions be made to accommodate their unique requirements? Some cities are preparing AV-only lanes, additional drop-off and collection points or dedicated AV hubs where vehicles can charge when not in use. But all of these entail significant upheaval and cost. Automotive World’s latest special report examines the various approaches underway as cities adapt for future fleets of AVs.
