Miami, Your Waymo Ride Is Ready

Starting today, Waymo is welcoming the first public riders into our fully autonomous ride-hailing service in Miami. With nearly 10,000 residents already signed up, we will be inviting new riders on a rolling basis to ensure a seamless experience across our initial 60-square-mile service area. The territory includes Miami’s most iconic neighborhoods—from the Design District and Wynwood to Brickell and Coral Gables—with plans to expand to Miami International Airport soon.

“Miami is a city defined by its energy, myriad of global cultures, and its forward-looking spirit, and Waymo is proud to add to that momentum,” said Tekedra Mawakana, co-CEO of Waymo. “We’re excited to offer its residents and visitors a safe, reliable, and magical way to move around and look forward to earning their trust with every ride.”

Miami-Dade County Commission Chairman Anthony Rodriguez said: "Miami-Dade County welcomes Waymo as it begins driverless vehicle operations in our community. As a county that embraces innovation, we see the potential for emerging mobility technologies to expand transportation options and support a more connected future. We look forward to working collaboratively while ensuring these operations meet our high standards for safety, transparency, and accountability, and that they integrate thoughtfully into our transportation network for the benefit of residents and visitors alike.”

As more Miami residents and visitors take Waymo rides, this will translate into safer streets. With over 127 million fully autonomous miles, we have achieved a ten-fold reduction in serious injury crashes compared to human drivers in the areas where we operate, and we are excited to bring these safety benefits to the city of Miami. Our technology is built to handle the city’s unique environment, from the bright midday sun to sudden tropical downpours, ensuring a reliable service in diverse weather conditions.

We believe that the best way to serve a city is to listen to the people who live there. That’s why we’re working closely with local organizations to ensure our service meets the diverse needs of Miami’s residents.

“Roadway safety in Miami is quite simply one of the most important issues today,” said Rachel Lamar, Area Executive Director of MADD. “Autonomous vehicles hold the exciting promise of preventing deaths and injuries caused by behavioral factors, including impaired driving, if deployed responsibly and safely and in collaboration with the right community and city stakeholders. MADD South Florida welcomes Waymo to Miami as another tool in the toolbox to help end impaired driving.”

“As a blind CEO who travels with a guide dog, I know that accessible, bias-free transportation is the difference between dependence and opportunity,” said Virginia Jacko, CEO of Miami Lighthouse for the Blind. “Waymo’s technology transforms accessibility into autonomy, giving our community the freedom to travel independently and confidently.”
