This project builds on the Connector project, originally funded through the Commercialising CAM: Deployment competition. Connector 2 seeks to extend the Connector trials at Cambridge West and Biomedical Campus, together with work to explore how this technology can support deployments on both the future and existing Cambridgeshire Busways . This extension will build technical capability and confidence in autonomous bus services, and the solution provided with the Alexander Dennis Enviro100 EV and Fusion CAVStar system.
