Abstract
Various technologies described herein pertain to autonomous vehicle consumption of real-time public transportation data to guide curb access and usage. An autonomous vehicle receives a trip request for a ride specifying a requested pullover location. The autonomous vehicle receives public transportation data specifying an expected arrival time of a public transportation vehicle at a reserved zone within proximity of the requested pullover location. The autonomous vehicle evaluates availability of the reserved zone during an expected occupancy time of the reserved zone by the autonomous vehicle based on the expected arrival time of the public transportation vehicle at the reserved zone. The autonomous vehicle selects an actual pullover location for the ride in the autonomous vehicle based on the availability of the reserved zone during the expected occupancy time. The autonomous vehicle stops at the actual pullover location for the ride in the autonomous vehicle.
