A £620m ($785m) plan to create a garden town in Didcot, Oxfordshire includes a dedicated road for driverless cars. The garden town, which will provide space for more than 15,000 new homes, will include a "garden line", which is being envisioned initially as a walking and cycling route, but could be utilised for autonomous vehicles from 2026. The infrastructure proposal specified that the route would require £35m in funding to be made suitable for autonomous vehicles.
