Shared Automation Operating Models for Worldwide Adoption

During the project, real-life urban demonstrations took place in 20 cities across Europe, integrating fleets of automated vehicles into public transport, demand-responsive transport (DRT), Mobility as a Service (MaaS), and Logistics as a Service (LaaS) schemes.

SHOW was the largest and most holistic initiative piloting automated vehicles in urban environments.

It brought together a strong partnership of 69 partners from 13 EU countries and fostered international cooperation by collaborating with organisations from the US, South Korea, Australia, China, and other countries.

Key Facts

  • 69 Partners from 13 EU Countries and 60 stakeholders for additional support
  • Duration: January 2020 – September 2024
  • Budget: €36 million
  • Coordinator: UITP
The integration of AVs in public transport networks can be considered as one of the biggest game-changers in urban mobility today. As the largest project on automated transport ever funded by the European Commission, the launch of SHOW marks a very important moment for UITP and our members. We are very proud to have gathered the greatest European knowledge to make seamless and integrated urban mobility through automated fleets a reality.
