Service Details
The VIVA Campus Shuttle operates on weekdays from 7:00 to 10:00 AM and 12:00 to 3:00 PM. Rides are free. Shuttle service may be paused temporarily due to rain or fog, in which case notifications will be posted at the shuttle stops.
Background
The VIVA Shuttle is a temporary service that provides an additional mobility option for those traveling within the Palo Alto Division of the VA Palo Alto Healthcare System. The electric shuttle uses self-driving technology to travel along a fixed route that serves three stops within the campus. Although the vehicle drives itself, a human safety attendant is always onboard to assist passengers. The purpose of the VIVA Shuttle pilot is to learn more about self-driving technology, gain operating experience, and assess whether there are other applications for self-driving or driving-assist technology in Santa Clara County.
