Driverless vehicles are arriving on British roads. The first commercial robotaxi services in Europe will launch here within months. The implications stretch far beyond transport, into work, productivity, privacy, city planning, accessibility, and security.

The Institute for Driverless Transport (IfDT) prepares policymakers, businesses, and communities for these consequences, so that the UK can take full advantage of the gains and build resilience to the disruptions.

We will be launching the Institute for Driverless Transport at One Triton Square, London on Thursday 9 April. Click here to RSVP.
