The Jacksonville Transportation Authority (JTA) Board of Directors has unanimously approved Resolution 2025-07, allowing the JTA CEO to reserve autonomous shuttles for the continued development of the Ultimate Urban Circulator (U2C) program.

The resolution authorizes the CEO to negotiate and execute the purchase of 14 autonomous shuttles, the HOLON Mover, for deployment along the Bay Street Innovation Corridor (Phase 1 of the U2C program). As future phases advance, the CEO is authorized to negotiate purchase orders for up to an additional 86 vehicles. This resolution aligns with the State of Florida Automated Transit Vehicle Procurement.

HOLON recently selected Jacksonville for its first US large-scale manufacturing facility, which is expected to create over 800 jobs and bring nearly US$300m to the local economy over the next four years.

“This is a major step forward for the Ultimate Urban Circulator program and for HOLON’s presence in Jacksonville,” said JTA CEO Nat Ford. “It is a testament to our commitment to reimagining mobility in a way that fuels economic growth and fosters innovation. We are not merely modernizing mobility solutions; we are shaping the future of urban life in Jacksonville.”

Aundra Wallace, vice chair of the board of directors, commented, “This is a critical next step forward for an innovative project that puts our community on the map as a leader in autonomous vehicle technology and manufacturing.”

The U2C program aims to transform transit in Downtown Jacksonville and improve connections to surrounding neighborhoods such as Springfield, Brooklyn, Riverside and San Marco. The program began in 2015 with an announced plan to modernize and expand the Skyway monorail system. It is the result of a decade of stakeholder engagement and collaborative planning, and is supported by federal, state and local funding.
