What We Are Doing Now — 2026
Active work, underway today
Autonomous Mobility UK is an active early-stage company. Here is what we are working on right now to prepare for the safe, commercial deployment of autonomous passenger services in Britain.
Local Authority Engagement
We have commenced a national programme of early-stage engagement with local authorities across England to explore prospective locations for future autonomous passenger services.
Industry Engagement
We are in dialogue with autonomous technology providers, vehicle manufacturers, mobility platforms and operators as the market develops — on a technology-neutral basis.
Infrastructure Development
We are developing the mobility hub, charging, energy and fleet-operations requirements that safe, commercial autonomous services depend on.
Regulatory Preparation
We are engaging with the UK’s evolving framework for automated passenger services and contributing to relevant consultations as a prospective operator.
The Next Generation of Urban Mobility
A safer, cleaner,
more connected future.
A new generation of purpose-built autonomous vehicles and AI driving systems is moving from development towards commercial deployment. This next generation of mobility is compact, electric and designed around autonomous operation.
Autonomous Mobility UK is technology-neutral. Our role is to create the infrastructure, fleet and operational environment in which appropriately authorised technology can be deployed safely and commercially in the UK.

Engaging with
local authorities
Engagement has now commenced. Autonomous Mobility UK has begun a national programme of early-stage engagement with local authorities across England to identify prospective locations for future autonomous passenger deployments tailored to local transport priorities.
- Understand local transport priorities
- Explore controlled pilot opportunities
- Develop safe, phased deployment plans
- Support first-and-last-mile transport
- Explore links with rail, tourism and employment centres
- Build evidence before scaling
- Support local economic growth
Technology-Neutral by Design
Technology, infrastructure and expertise
Autonomous Mobility UK is not developing its own autonomous-driving technology. We are building the deployment layer that turns appropriately authorised vehicles and driving systems into safe, commercial UK passenger services.
We remain deliberately technology-neutral — not tied to any single manufacturer or provider — seeking to work with the safest and most commercially viable solutions for each deployment.
Our Role
Turning authorised technology into passenger services
Autonomous Mobility UK does not develop autonomous-driving software. Our role is to turn appropriately authorised autonomous vehicle technology into safe, scalable and commercially sustainable passenger services — developing the fleet ownership, infrastructure, operational and local deployment capabilities required to put those technologies into service.

The Growth Model
From local fleets to connected regional networks
Autonomous mobility does not have to arrive everywhere at once. It can begin locally, prove itself, and then connect neighbouring areas into a wider regional network — sharing hubs, infrastructure and operations.
Illustrative Sussex example
Eastbourne
Coastal town
Lewes
County town
Brighton & Hove
Coastal city
Individual town and city services could, over time, connect across boundaries — for example linking Brighton & Hove and Lewes — to create cross-boundary regional journeys that no single authority area could deliver alone.
Concept under development — subject to regulatory approval, vehicle availability and local-authority engagement. No passenger numbers, routes or commitments are implied.
Our Approach
A staged path from local to regional scale
A disciplined four-stage model, growing deliberately as safety, demand and local confidence build.
Local Deployment
10–30 vehicles
A controlled local fleet within a defined operating area, proving safety and building real-world evidence.
City / Town Scale
30–100 vehicles
Expanding within a city or town as demand, safety performance and local confidence grow.
Connected Regional Network
100+ vehicles
Linking neighbouring areas across boundaries, with shared hubs and infrastructure supporting regional journeys.
Replication
Multiple regions
Repeating proven local and regional models in other parts of the UK to build national scale.
Illustrative deployment model only. Vehicle numbers are indicative, not confirmed orders, and depend on regulatory approval, vehicle availability, local consent and commercial viability.

The opportunity extends far beyond London
Building a national pipeline of prospective deployment locations.
Alongside our developing work in Sussex and other prospective locations, Autonomous Mobility UK continues to assess UK towns and cities where autonomous passenger services could deliver strong transport and commercial benefits.
The objective is a small number of prospective early deployment locations for detailed feasibility work, with a model intended to be replicable across other UK regions.
Local Authority Readiness
Appetite for early engagement and support for innovation in local transport.
Passenger Demand
Clear first-and-last-mile and point-to-point travel demand.
Road & AV Suitability
Road environments suited to safe, controlled autonomous operation.
Public Transport Integration
Opportunities to complement rail, bus and existing networks.
Charging & Depot Infrastructure
Access to charging, depot and vehicle-management infrastructure.
Commercial Viability
A realistic route to a commercially sustainable local service.
Exploratory engagement does not imply local authority approval, partnership or future deployment.
The Deployment Layer
Connecting the autonomous mobility ecosystem
Autonomous passenger services require many parties to work together. Autonomous Mobility UK sits at the centre — the deployment layer that brings them together.

The deployment & infrastructure layer
Categories are illustrative of the wider ecosystem. No specific organisation, partnership or agreement is implied.
Commercial Model
Private capital.
Public transport benefit.
Autonomous Mobility UK is being developed as a privately funded initiative with a clear public purpose: improving transport access, supporting cleaner vehicles and strengthening local economies through commercially sustainable services.
Private investment can help bring new mobility to communities and complement existing public transport — working alongside local authorities rather than competing with them.
Investable Infrastructure
Long-life mobility hubs, charging and energy assets.
Community Benefit
Better access, cleaner air and local opportunity.
Public Partnership
Designed to complement local transport plans.
Sustainable Returns
Commercially disciplined, evidence-led growth.
The Commercial Model
How the model creates value
Autonomous Mobility UK is developing a commercial model in which value is created across passenger operations, fleet infrastructure and the deployment ecosystem as autonomous mobility scales.
Passenger Services
High-utilisation autonomous passenger fleets have the potential to generate recurring journey revenue as authorised services scale.
Mobility Infrastructure
Strategically located infrastructure can support charging, cleaning, inspection, staging and operational services for autonomous fleets.
Deployment Ecosystem
AMUK brings together the technology, infrastructure, operational and local requirements needed to turn authorised autonomous technology into passenger services.
Regional Scale
Connecting neighbouring operating areas can increase addressable demand, improve infrastructure utilisation and create a model capable of being replicated in other UK regions.
Autonomous Mobility UK’s long-term commercial opportunity is therefore not limited to owning vehicles. It includes participation in fleet operations, passenger services and the infrastructure required to support autonomous mobility.
The commercial model is under development and retains flexibility across direct ownership, leased assets, infrastructure investment, operating partnerships, platform relationships and private investment. No revenue projections, margins or revenue-sharing arrangements are implied, and not every revenue stream is operational today.
Why Now?
Autonomous mobility is moving from concept to deployment
Autonomous passenger technology is advancing rapidly. Commercial autonomous services are emerging internationally, purpose-built autonomous vehicles are entering production, and the United Kingdom has established an Automated Passenger Services pilot framework and is developing the wider statutory regime.
This creates an important window for UK fleet operators, local authorities, infrastructure providers and technology companies to begin preparing for deployment before autonomous passenger services reach mass adoption.
The infrastructure, partnerships and operating capability need to be built before the vehicles arrive.
The Path to Deployment
The regulatory pathway is taking shape
The United Kingdom has established an Automated Passenger Services pilot framework and is progressing toward the wider statutory regime for self-driving passenger services, setting out how autonomous vehicles and operators will be authorised to carry passengers.
Government guidance encourages early engagement between prospective operators and local authorities, well ahead of any vehicle deployment, so that local planning can develop alongside national regulation.
Autonomous Mobility UK is undertaking exactly this early engagement — building local relationships and deployment understanding as the framework matures.
Each stage is subject to the required approvals, permits and local consent.
