It looks like Uber is going to be subsidized by Alphabet’s subsidiary, Sidewalk Labs. The pilot, and yes I’m going to call it a pilot as it is happening because of the DOT’s Smart City Challenge, will be implemented as part of the Columbus, Ohio project.
Flow, as Sidewalk Labs named it, is the platform whereby they’ll improve traffic flow, change how drivers find parking, and offer (through Uber) ride-sharing for low-income people.
