Abstract

The current transportation networks face a lot of challenges regarding pollution, noise and costs. The limits of current transportation systems are being pushed and with the increasing number of people travelling regularly, it is clear that new transportation systems must be created to comply with the customers’ needs. Expansion and innovation of transportation infrastructure is needed and future transportation should become more sustainable while also being faster, cheaper, safer, and more reliable.
