Our US Project Portfolio:
In the U.S., we have several successful AV pilot projects where we have partnered with and supported our clients to develop and learn solutions for their passengers.


Shared Autonomous Vehicle (SAV) Pilot with LAVTA
Dublin, California
Transdev previously managed the Livermore Amador Valley Transit Authority’s (LAVTA) Shared Autonomous Vehicle (SAV) pilot in Dublin, California. The pilot aimed to enhance first- and last-mile connectivity to Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) and LAVTA bus lines. Transdev oversaw testing and operations, leveraging experience from past AV deployments. Partnering with EasyMile, the project ensured seamless integration. While this contract is no longer active, the initiative provided valuable insights into AV transit accessibility and congestion reduction, serving as a model for future AV adoption. Transdev remains a leader in autonomous mobility solutions.

Advancing Autonomous Transit with Fairfax County’s “Relay”
Fairfax, Virginia
Transdev played a pivotal role in launching Virginia’s first publicly funded Connected Autonomous Vehicle (CAV) pilot, “Relay,” in partnership with Fairfax County, Dominion Energy, and the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation. Operating between the Dunn Loring Metrorail Station and the Mosaic District, this 100% electric, ADA-accessible shuttle showcased Transdev’s expertise in autonomous vehicle operations and safety management.
Though this pilot project is no longer active, Transdev’s work with EasyMile and public-private partners demonstrated its leadership in AV innovation. The project, launched in October 2020, provided a sustainable, first/last-mile solution, reinforcing Transdev’s commitment to pioneering smart mobility.
