Emerging Technologies will impact the Future of Public Transportation | Paul Comfort

The role of the public transit sector will evolve in the future as people are looking for better customer experience and real-time updates. The pandemic has negative impact on the public transit sector across the globe. However, the North American region is still lagging behind in the recovery. Bipartisan Infrastructure Law allocated $108 billion to support public transportation programs, including $91 billion in guaranteed funding. This funding has helped cities to launch various pilots including electric/fuel cell buses, autonomous vehicles, and MaaS. The emergence of new mobility options including urban air mobility and autonomous vehicles will change the landscape. Mobility will become more individualized.
