FUTURE MOBILITY
FUTURE MOBILITY is a sea-changing development in how people and goods travel across the globe technology-driven and in line with sustainable development. Central to that evolution comes the rise of autonomous vehicles that could improve safety and efficiency, substitutes for the human driver. Supplementing this are electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles aimed at reducing environmental impact and dependence on fossil fuels. Shared services in the form of ride- and car-sharing are alternatives to personal car ownership, as they integrate flexible and cost-effective travel options. Urban air mobility—in the form of drones and air taxis—works through congestion on the ground and adds new modes of transportation. Smart infrastructure—with intelligent traffic management and connected systems—eases travel and assists in better urban planning. Further, the reinvention of long-distance travels—like the Hyperloop and next-generation high-speed rail—will unfold alongside personal devices and sustainable designs in urban spaces to foster improved local mobility.
