Changes in mobility

Changes in mobility EDITORIAL Dear Readers, As is becoming evident, the transport network in our country – especially the urban areas – is in- creasingly becoming overloaded. Severe congestion in cities is also leading to increased levels of emissions. Recent data on Delhi suggests around a million vehicles got registered in the national capital over the last year alone, taking the city’s overall vehicle population close to 10 mn! Additional transportation solutions are being put in place to ease out the chaos on roads, but there is a limit to how much can be done, considering there is always a want for physical space and gov- ernment funds. There is a clear need to think differently, and introduce mobility solutions that are not just smart and integrated, but efficient and sustainable, adhering to the demands of environ- ment compatibility. Any such mobility solutions must be able to react quickly to future demands; in fact, should be able to pre-empt many of those demands. Countries and organisations have adopted a ‘vision zero’ approach to safety, but creating a trans- port environment that results in no fatality will still take time. But ‘vision zero’ could be a reality much earlier than we think. Tesla, http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Auto Tech Review Springer Journals
