Zurich Pioneers Autonomous Airport Transport

• Zurich Airport is currently testing autonomous buses for employee transport, potentially making it the first in Europe to implement such a system on its operating site.
• The pilot project began in March 2025, with employees using the service since June 2025.
• The autonomous route covers a distance of approximately 2 km along the edge of the tarmac and runways.
• Future phases of testing, scheduled for late 2025, will remove the backup driver and rely on remote monitoring from 'The Circle'.
