Abstract

This chapter identifies and maps regulatory and legislative requirements and procedures for the deployment of autonomous public transport. After providing a general overview on the international and European organizations involved in regulatory statements and the branches of law framing regulation for public transport, we propose a tool to evaluate the level of regulation framework openness to robomobility, the ROAD index (the Regulation Openness for Autonomous Driving index). Taking into account regulations and policy making processes, we distinguished a set of four variables to measure the level of national or local readiness for the implementation of autonomous collective vehicles on open roads. ROAD index helps to evaluate regulation as facilitator or barrier to robomobility and to understand in which way decision makers can leverage on regulation to make it build a favorable framework for mobility innovation.
