Welcome to the trial of our very own BusBot - an automated driverless vehicle. The #BusBotAU trial is based in Coffs Harbour and is the first of its kind in regional Australia. @TransportForNSW @BuswaysGroup @CHCC_Media @EasyMile #FutureTransport
BusBot has now completed the first stage of Phase 3 and is currently taking a short break for upgrades being carried out by our team of experts. We’ll be back operating in the Botanic Gardens soon.
#BusBotAU #RegionalTransportSolutions #PublicTransport
BusBot will not operate in the botanic gardens today, Thursday 12 March or tomorrow, Friday 13 March as maintenance work is being carried out on the vehicle by our team of experts.
We'll be back up and operating this Saturday 14 March.

#MarianGrove resident feedback on #BusBotAU😄:
"BusBot is wonderful. I used to take my car but using BusBot is very convenient. Attendants Keven and Trish really look out for you so it's a nice feeling to see them all the time." - Margaret, 86-year-old resident at @SCCAWeCare.
Phase 2: Residents at @SCCAWeCare have been using #BusbotAU to travel around the retirement village as they test the future of transport. You can view their stories via @abcnews here: ab.co/2XPHFvz

Over Phase 1 of the #BusBotAU Trial we received great feedback on our indigenous livery design. A big thank you to #ImpactWrapAustralia for coming on board to support the project and for being a great local supplier.

#BusBotAU performed just as we expected during Phase 1 on the Northern Breakwall as it navigated pedestrians, cyclists and even some seagulls! This was all without incident. Thank you to #QBEInsuranceAustralia for insuring BusBot. We appreciate your support!
