It is planned to test all types and models of highly automated vehicles on the roads of the pilot zone, as well as to practice their interaction with the road infrastructure of intelligent transportation systems, high-precision positioning systems and a digital dynamic map of road traffic.

All types and models of automated motilities will be tested on the roads of the pilot zone, as well as their interaction with the road transportation infrastructure. Based on the results of the experiments, scientific and methodological, regulatory and technical bases will be created.
