Waymo Robo-Taxis Expanding to More of SF & Peninsula
Autonomous taxi company Waymo is expanding in the Bay Area.
Starting August 6, 2024, Waymo One will be serving the San Francisco Peninsula for the first time, adding Daly City, Broadmoor, and Colma to their existing, round-the-clock public ride-hailing service.
After removing the waitlist for our San Francisco service in June, we’ve seen incredible demand from locals and visitors alike. Now, our SF operations cover 55 square miles of the Bay Area – from Fisherman’s Wharf to Serramonte Center – and connect to the Daly City and Colma BART Stations, so even more people can ride.
Waymo One is growing steadily, serving well over 50,000 paid rides per week across San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Phoenix. The Waymo Driver is trusted to help parents take their kids to school, vulnerable groups get home safely late at night, and seniors be even more independent, as they all experience the benefits of fully autonomous driving.
In the past few months, we’ve commercially launched a fully autonomous ride-hailing service in Los Angeles, added 90 square miles to our Metro Phoenix service, and begun curbside airport pickups and dropoffs at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.
In total, members of the public have taken more than 2 million paid trips with Waymo, and our vehicles have driven more than 20 million miles fully autonomously. As our operations grow, so does evidence that Waymo is improving road safety and reducing traffic injuries and fatalities in the places where we operate.
These expansions build on many years of rigorous testing and evaluation, and our decision to expand our service followed the careful and multilayered approach to safety set out in our safety framework.
