Starting at the end of this year, a demand-responsive autonomous shuttle (aDRT) will operate,\u00a0<\/p>

connecting KTX Seodaegu Station, Jukjeon Station on Line 2, and Seobu Bus Terminal Station on Line 1.<\/p>

\u00a0At Seodaegu Station, a robot service for transporting luggage will be introduced to enhance passenger convenience.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

On the 28th, the Daegu Metropolitan Transit Corporation signed a memorandum of understanding with service\u00a0<\/p>

specialized companies A2Z, iRobots, Neotisis, and Winitech to establish mobility services incorporating these features.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

The corporation will invest a total of 2 billion won over two years, including 1 billion won from national funds and\u00a0<\/p>

1 billion won from municipal funds, to advance the project. The main components of the project are<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

  1. 1. Operation of autonomous aDRT shuttles<\/li>
  2. 2. Robot luggage transport service<\/li>
  3. 3. Smart Mobility Hub Center<\/li>
  4. 4. Policy support system based on mobility database<\/li>
  5. 5. Mileage settlement and payment system<\/li>
  6. 6. Development of a flexible dispatch DRT platform<\/li>
  7. 7. Operation of DRT services for specific travel purposes (e.g., tourism) in the Palgongsan area.<\/li><\/ol>
    Especially, the key aspects of this project, namely the operation of autonomous aDRT shuttles and the robot<\/div>
    luggage carry service,\u00a0will commence at the end of this year. The robot luggage carry service will be available<\/span><\/div>
    at KTX Seodaegu Station.\u00a0<\/span>This will be the third instance of DRT operations in Daegu,\u00a0<\/span><\/div>
    following the innovations in the Medical R&D District in October last year and in the Suseong Alpha City<\/span><\/div>
    and Innovation City Advanced Medical Complex in August of this year.<\/span><\/div>
    \u00a0<\/span><\/div>
    This agreement follows the selection of the ‘2023 Mobility Specialized City Development Project’ by the Ministry of Land,<\/div>
    Infrastructure, and Transport. The participating organizations have come together to collaborate and ensure the smooth<\/div>
    and successful implementation of the project.
    <\/span><\/div>
    \u00a0<\/div>
    The Daegu Metropolitan Transit Corporation, as the leading organization for the project, will oversee the entire initiative<\/div>
    and\u00a0provide\u00a0<\/span>administrative support,\u00a0<\/span>including the establishment of the Smart Mobility Hub Center. Autonomous A2Z<\/span><\/div>
    will be responsible for operating the autonomous aDRT shuttles, while iRobots will handle the robot luggage carry service.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>
    Neotisis will develop the policy support system based on the mobility database, and Winitech will create<\/span><\/div>
    the public transportation mileage system and the flexible dispatch DRT app<\/span><\/div>
    for specific travel purposes (e.g., tourism).<\/span><\/div>
    \u00a0<\/span><\/div>
    Kim Ki-hyuk, President of Daegu Metropolitan Transit Corporation, stated, “Through this agreement,<\/div>
    we aim to successfully advance the Mobility Specialized City Development Project in collaboration<\/div>
    with capable local specialized companies. Furthermore, we will do our utmost to lead innovative<\/div>
    advancements in the future mobility sector and transform Daegu into a new mobility hub.
