LONDON, ON, May 3, 2018. London and Windsor have been selected as one of six regional sites province-wide for autonomous vehicle development and testing.
Ontario's investing $80 million into the Regional Technology Development Sites (RTDS) as part of the Autonomous Vehicle Innovation Network (AVIN) project.
London and Windsor will make up the southwestern Ontario hub, with each city receiving $2.5 million.
My hope with this program is certainly to have London on the map in terms of a place where technologies and products that have autonomous applications are being developed - Kapil Lakhotia, President & CEO, LEDC
