ComfortDelGro deploys driverless shuttles in Punggol
The group eyes 10% AV fleet by 2030.
Transport operator ComfortDelGro began public rides on its Zig Driverless shuttles in Punggol on 22 June.
The launch is its second autonomous service globally after its robotaxi pilot in Guangzhou, China.
The group said its China and Singapore operations will support the wider rollout of driverless services as it targets converting about 10% of its global point-to-point fleet to autonomous vehicles by 2030.
“We are integrating technology, infrastructure, and operational know-how needed to deploy AV services safely and at scale,” said Cheng Siak Kian, Group CEO of ComfortDelGro.
The service is currently offered free of charge, with pick-up and drop-off points at Sam Kee, Northshore, and Punggol Coast Mall.
