Automated cars could soon ferry passengers from San Jose airport to Diridon Station
An effort to connect a 3.5-mile gap between San Jose Mineta International Airport and Diridon Station may get a Star Trek-like solution.
The roughly 200 shuttles would stop at Terminal B — and plans are in the works to potentially include Terminal A and nearby parking. Funding for the project would be a public-private model, with the city taking on some of the costs while an investor would front another portion. The fare cost is currently unknown, city officials said.
The use of Glydways shuttles drew criticism from transit fanatics like Jake Wilde, a student at San Jose State University. Wilde said that while the automated shuttles may be useful between short distances, they may not be scalable like rail or bus. Others, like those at Valley Transportation Authority’s union, accused the council of banking on a technology that isn’t commercially available yet.
