About the Company

Glydways

Autonomous, on-demand Personal Rapid Transit system

Glydways is building an on-demand Personal Rapid Transit system in cities using autonomous Glydcars that travel in dedicated lanes to transport riders. Riders request trips and Glydcars are dispatched to provide 24/7 service with high capacity, claimed up to 10,800 passengers per hour in a 1.5-meter lane, enabling point-to-point trips without a driver. The system aims for energy-neutral operation with a low carbon footprint and lower infrastructure costs compared with rail, charging riders for trips as its revenue. Its distinguishing approach combines autonomous vehicles, dedicated lanes, high throughput, and energy efficiency to offer flexible, cost-effective urban mobility, targeting city dwellers and large events, with the goal of reducing congestion and private car use.
