Amazon 撤回马萨诸塞州 Westborough 的 Prime Air 无人机配送计划，拟重新提交
Amazon withdraws its Prime Air drone delivery plan in Westborough, Massachusetts, after resident pushback but plans to resubmit
Amazon 撤回了在马萨诸塞州 Westborough 履约中心启动 Prime Air 无人机配送的申请，该计划原定向 7.5 英里内家庭配送 5 磅以下包裹。当地居民在 10 月镇民大会上以 510-13 票通过规范无人机起降区域、增加隐私保护并设定违规罚款的地方条例，MassDOT 也要求其航空部门先完成公共安全审查。Amazon 表示将在与当地利益相关方进一步沟通后提交修订方案。
Amazon withdrew its application to launch Prime Air drones from its fulfillment center in Westborough, Massachusetts, where it planned to deliver packages under 5 pounds to homes within 7.5 miles. The plan had drawn heavy local opposition, and at an October town meeting residents voted 510-13 for a bylaw that regulates drone launch areas, adds privacy protections, and sets fines for violations. MassDOT also told Amazon its aeronautics division must finish a public safety review before any flights, and local lawmakers asked Governor Maura Healey to form a drone delivery task force. Amazon said it will submit a revised plan after more talks with local stakeholders, and it argued its drones make about as much noise as a passing car.
