The University of Texas at Arlington received an Award of Excellence for Innovation from the International Parking & Mobility Institute (IPMI). The award was for the RAPID program, a self-driving shuttle system for students and the general public that started in 2021. It was originally funded through the City of Arlington and a Federal Transit Administration grant, with additional support from the North Central Texas Council of Governments. RAPID provided more than 28,000 trips in its first year of service to residents, University students and visitors around downtown Arlington and The University of Texas at Arlington campus.

You can read more about the award in the latest edition of the Enhance Regional Mobility newsletter. You can also learn more about Arlington On-Demand celebrating two million trips as well as other mobility news.

All quarterly City Council priority newsletters are produced in a digital formal, allowing for layers of additional video content and important links.
