Reggio Emilia is a mid-size Italian city with high-speed train station and fashion house.

The pilot is managed by the department of Engineering at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia (UNIMORE).

Through the project, Reggio Emilia aims at linking disadvantaged urban areas to public transport. The city plans to connect the Medio-Padana High-Speed Train Station with Max Mara fashion house. This model intends to investigate the potential of autonomous driving in responding to the needs of mobility in solving the so-called “last mile”, through a smart and green solution, where new information technologies enable a more inclusive and sustainable transport model from an environmental point of view.
