Robots to deliver takeaways in busy student areas

Available for over a year

The autonomous machines, which run on six wheels, have been delivering groceries to residents in parts of Leeds since 2022, when a partnership with Co-op began. Headingley and Hyde Park councillor Jonathan Pryor said the "tried and tested" robots had already proved to be a "real success" in the city. The robots will be able to complete deliveries in less than 30 minutes for distances of up to two miles according to a spokesperson for the company behind them, Starship Technologies.
