Smart Columbus Halts Linden Shuttle Test

Smart Columbus

Smart Columbus has halted a test of self-driving shuttles in Linden as official investigate why one unexpectedly stopped Thursday, causing a woman to fall from her seat. 

The woman sought medical attention. Last year the city signed a 1.1 million contract with shuttle maker EasyMile for the service that began running in February. The union representing Central Ohio Transit Authority drivers asked for an independent investigation.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
