Fleet sizeCONFLICT-GR-06, CARRIED: two automated buses (Insider and Enimerotiko reporting the procurement, 2019; e-trikala contract with AMANI SWISS, 15 Jan 2020) versus three 10-passenger automated buses (TRIMIS, the European Commission transport-research database, and the IPS-X procurement record). Not resolved.

Operating scope

A permanent automated bus line integrated into Trikala's urban transport network, connecting the city centre with the University of Thessaly sport-science campus and/or the intercity ΚΤΕΛ station at Ριζαριό, after a six-month pilot. In August 2019 the plan was reported as two urban lines of 4–5 km each, with the explicit framing that the driverless buses were returning to Trikala «για να μείνουν» — to stay.
