Uber has Atlanta’s autonomous ride-hailing and delivery market on lock


Uber Eats customers in Atlanta can now opt in to have their food delivered via sidewalk delivery robots, following partner Serve Robotics’s launch on Thursday. The move comes just two days after Uber and Waymo launched a commercial robotaxi service in the city.

Atlanta marks Serve’s fourth commercial city after launching in partnership with Uber in Los Angeles, Miami, and Dallas Forth Worth.
