C-TUPPAC Expert Journal: Get an update on what has been happening in the last 6 months
In her 3rd journal, UIA expert Anna Pernestal guides us through the progress of the LINC-TUPPAC project during the last six months, focusing on the project’s application to get legal approval to have self-driving buses on public streets. The process has taken longer than expected since the legislative process is new in Denmark, and the project is one of the first to apply for such approval.

Further to that, Anna tries to address some upcoming hot questions when it comes to driverless mobility, and touches upon the major learnings so far. These include how to build resilient projects when dealing with new technology and new legislative contexts; how to conduct research in complex innovation projects; and the importance of the process to involve users in the service design to include all relevant types of users. 
Finally, Anna looks into the challenges faced by the project, highlighting those of upscaling, financial sustainability, and legislative readiness. The LINC - TUPPAC team is aware of the challenges and has strategies about how to tackle the challenges. Read to find out how!
