This study is an initial design exercise that seeks to understand the changing landscape of freight delivery, and evaluates two emerging delivery technologies: drones (air) and robots (autonomous ground vehicles (AGVs), or droids) on the built environment.
Given that this is a high-level exercise, the sole purpose of this document is to highlight emerging trends and provide guidance for future policy development around autonomous delivery systems to ensure that these technologies are implemented with the safest, most-equitable considerations in mind.
