U2C: Ultimate Urban Circulator
The Ultimate Urban Circulator (U²C) is a program to introduce autonomous vehicles (AVs) into the JTA’s transportation system. The U²C will extend reach within the urban core and into adjacent neighborhoods to support the vision of a vibrant, revitalized and better-connected Downtown Jacksonville.
The Neighborhood Autonomous Vehicle Innovation (NAVI) service operates the first phase of the Ultimate Urban Circulator (U2C) program known as the Bay Street Innovation Corridor (BSIC), a program seamlessly integrating AVs into Jacksonville's mobility network.
The Bay Street Innovation Corridor (BSIC) project will introduce Autonomous Vehicles (AVs), initially operating in approximately three miles of mixed traffic in curbside lanes along Bay Street from Pearl Street to EverBank Stadium, extending west to east through the Jacksonville Urban Core.
Along the route, AVs will make stops at designated locations to allow passengers to enter and exit the AVs as needed. Later phases of the U²C program are also expected to utilize interoperable technology to deliver an integrated AV network connection in Downtown Jacksonville and surrounding neighborhoods.
Phase 1: Bay Street Innovation Corridor
NAVI is the first fully autonomous public transportation system network in the United States. This service operates along a 3.5-mile route through Downtown Jacksonville linking key areas from the Central Business Core to the Sports & Entertainment District.
