Peachtree Corners officials hailed the return of autonomous shuttles during a Wednesday event. Four shuttles made by two different companies will take a 3-mile loop around the city\u2019s test track alongside regular traffic on Technology Parkway, wedged between Peachtree Industrial Boulevard and Ga. 141.

\u201cWe\u2019re talking about the deployment of first-of-its-kind technology on a public road,\u201d said City Manager Brian Johnson during a press conference. The 5G-powered shuttles, some made by Arizona\u2019s Local Motors and others by French-based Navya, will make seven stops within 25 minutes when traversing the city\u2019s technology hub. The free-to-ride shuttles will begin operating 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday through Friday in about two weeks.
