The GINEVRA project is pleased to announce the official launch of the AV Readiness Assessment Tool – an interactive online calculator designed to help cities across Central Europe evaluate their preparedness for autonomous vehicles (AVs) and plan actionable next steps.

Accessible via the EMFIE platform, this tool empowers local authorities, planners, and stakeholders to assess, benchmark, and strengthen their approach to autonomous mobility through a structured, participatory process.

Key Features:

– Composite Readiness Index: A comprehensive score that benchmarks a city’s current AV preparedness

– Stakeholder Involvement: The tool encourages input from local actors and citizens to support inclusive decision-making

– Tailored Action Plans: Based on results, users receive concrete recommendations to address gaps and improve readiness

– Four Readiness Levels: Cities are classified from Limited Readiness to AV Pioneer, enabling targeted capacity-building

The AV Readiness Tool contributes to GINEVRA’s broader objective of fostering responsible governance of transformative mobility innovations, with a strong emphasis on local context, citizen participation, and long-term planning.
