Service: Consortium completes key stage of autonomous tram depot project

Responsible organisation: City of Potsdam (Local Government)

The research project aims to develop a digital depot based on self-driving trams and demonstrate autonomous service functions, such as moving a tram through a washing facility to a siding. Siemens Mobility and ViP Verkehrsbetrieb Potsdam has completed a demonstration test of the Autonomous Tram in Depot research project (AStriD). The three-year research and development project is being implemented at the depot operated by Verkehrsbetrieb Potsdam and is supported by the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI) as part of its Modernity Fund (mFund).
