Waymo is sending a fleet of robotaxis with human specialists to map Boston's driving environment in May and June.
Boston's intricate road network poses challenges with irregular intersections, heavy foot traffic, and diverse weather conditions for autonomous vehicles.
Waymo is on a 10-city road trip across the U.S., exploring different urban settings to advance its autonomous driving technology.
In addition to Boston, Waymo is expanding its robotaxi services to cities like Miami, Atlanta, and Washington D.C., and testing in Tokyo, while partnering with Toyota for autonomous driving.
