Waymo is continuing to expand its service area in the Valley, with the latest expansions covering Old Town Scottsdale, ASU, and the Phoenix Zoo!

The company announced Thursday they plan to offer rides to areas that include parts of Scottsdale for the first time.

The expansion will include areas like Old Town Scottsdale, the main Arizona State University campus in Tempe, and the Phoenix Zoo. More areas of Phoenix, Chandler, Mesa, and nearly all of Tempe are now included in the Waymo service area. The company says it will now cover 180 square miles of the Valley with its latest expansion, which is more than four times the area it served when it initially opened in the area in 2020.“Waymo One remains the only and largest 24/7 fully autonomous ride-hailing service in the world — serving thousands of rides in multiple key markets — and we’re scaling quickly,” said Saswat Panigrahi, Waymo Chief Product Officer.

A second access location is also being opened at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport for travelers to use Waymo near the 24th Street Phoenix Sky Train station.
