The Moscow Department of Transport has developed uniform rules for the use of delivery robots. The department expects their number to grow rapidly in the coming years, said the head of the department, Maxim Liksutov.
Main points of the document:
- Speed limit
- Assigning an individual number to the robot
- Device identification
- Allocation of zones for movement and parking
- Connection to the Unified Regional Navigation System of Moscow (GIS ERNIS) and AIS "Taxomotor"
Uniform and clear rules for the operation of autonomous couriers will improve the safety of deliveries.
Currently, there are about 200 robot couriers in Moscow, which fulfill over 1.5 thousand orders per day. Rovers operate in 13 districts, including Arbat, Khamovniki, and Presnensky.
