opportunity to embrace the future of self-driving vehicles and share that future with as many people as
possible.”
As one of the nation’s first self-driving, ride-hailing programs available for use by the general public, this
type of dynamic, on-demand service is a major step forward for the self-driving industry, Drive.ai CEO Bijit
Halder said. Arlington’s innovative pilot program is also an example of how Drive.ai is partnering with local
governments to solve real-world mobility needs. “Our partnership with the City of Arlington is a testament
to Drive.ai’s ability to develop not only cutting-edge AI technology, but also self-driving services that solve
the most pressing transportation problems facing communities today,” Halder said. “As we continue to
scale our deployments, we are committed to closely
collaborating with governments, local authorities, and
other organizations so that we can put forth self-driving
programs that make a real and positive impact on
people’s daily lives.”
Regular shuttle service to all pick-up and drop-off
locations is available to the general public between
11 a.m. and 6 p.m. Thursday through Sunday. During
Cowboys home games, however, the shuttles will only
run between AT&T Stadium and the CenterPoint Office
Complex at Randol Mill Road and Six Flags Drive.
“The City of Arlington is excited to continue our exploration into new and innovative mobility solutions,
and I can tell you there will be plenty of exciting announcements in the near future,” Williams said. “We will
continue leading the way and take advantage of unique and efficient transportation options that become
available. We don’t wait for big ideas and big projects to happen in Arlington. We go out and get them done.”
Interested in checking out this transportation technology for yourself? You can hail a Drive.ai shuttle by
visiting a kiosk inside the Live Arena at Texas Live! or at the Arlington Convention Center during regular
service hours. Additional kiosks will be available at a later date. Passengers can also download the Drive.ai
app to request a ride.
