<strong>To support the research for the safe deployment of AV’s (Autonom Vehicles) on our roads, our partner NTU opens the Singapore’s first Autonomous Vehicle test center jointly developed with JTC and LTA.</strong>

Singapore wants to deploy from 2022 Autonomous Buses on public road within three different districts through the city-state. According to the country’s Ministry of Transport, the aim is to provide better connectivity and reduce congestion over the city.

As a part of this project, <strong>NAVYA</strong> is proud to participate to the AV development in Asia with our <strong>AUTONOM SHUTTLE</strong> and continuing to demonstrate that smart mobility solutions represent the future of tomorrow.

<strong>WHY DEVELOPP AN AUTONOMOUS VEHICULE TEST CENTER ?</strong>

The 2 hectar facilty test has several objectives to develop the deployment of AVs all over Asia, especially with tropical conditions. Goals are to prepare for future rool out of driverless vehicles with experiencing differents real situations as pedestrian crossing, bus lanes, curvy winding roads, thunderstorms and floods, upslope and downlope roads.

&nbsp;

The fully equipped test center will test AVs on their communication with others vehicles in complex environment. To allow a quick deployment of AVs, the CETRAN AV center will test vehicles with many exercises to reproduce real driving conditions of Singapore’s road, with traffic rules, common traffic schemes, infrastructure. The CETRAN AV center is also equipped with a rain simulator and flood zone to test the AV reactivity under extremes weather conditions.

Mr Khaw Boon Wan, Minister for transport of Singapor, explained that AVs could be useful for huge and densely built city as Singapore.

“That is why we are actively monitoring and testing out AV technology here, working with some of the best brains and technology companies in the world.” he said.
