The Cumberland Community Improvement District (CID) has partnered with transportation service Beep to test a self-driving route connecting the Cobb Galleria to The Battery.
During the pilot program, the Cumberland Hopper self-driving shuttle will operate along two routes, connecting key destinations as part of a “major mobility project” in development by the Cumberland CID called the Cumberland Sweep.
According to a press release, the eight-month pilot program will connect visitors, residents, and the community to destinations around Cobb Galleria and to The Battery.
The free pilot program launched on July 25 and will operate through March 2024.
The pilot program will provide CCID the data collection, performance review, and community feedback to further define and develop the long-term Cumberland Sweep mobility strategy which will be implemented over the next several years.
The Sweep is a three-mile plus corridor of car-free walking and biking lanes designed to connect key destinations throughout the main parts of the Cumberland CID.
With the Cumberland Sweep, the business community, residents, and visitors can easily cross the Cumberland area, accessing important locations such as The Battery Atlanta, Truist Park, Cumberland Mall, Cobb Galleria Centre, Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre, and the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area (CRNRA), while helping the environment and improving traffic flow.
