Vehicles Of The Future – Future Transportation System 2050

The transportation system in the future will be very different from our current system. We will see flying cars, self-driving cars, passenger drones, hyperloop one system that is projected to reach a top speed of 760 mph (1,220 km/h) and with Starship and the Super Heavy Rocket, most journeys will taking less than 30 minutes, with access to anywhere in the world in an hour or less.

    Is this an April Fools post early?

    Too many of these scenarios/modalities perpetuate transport systems that are space and energy intensive, promoting atomized sprawl instead of cohesive development. Reducing vehicle-miles traveled is the number one imperative for improving urban quality-of-life as well as addressing emissions, energy consumption and land use, and reducing street congestion.
    This also appears to be dated, as China has abandoned the “Elevated Bus”, and when Elon Musk debuted his Hawthorne tunnel it did not feature cars loaded on “skates” but rather traveling under their own power. Aside from improved tunneling techniques, the Boring Company’s finished product is far from a sustainable mass transit system. Upon signing legislation for the Morgantown PRT in 1972, this observation was made with reference to the Apollo program: The problem is not transporting three men 200,000 miles, but rather moving 200,000 people three miles. That challenge offers an opportunity today for innovative transit technologies such as Ultra Light Rail Transit.

Dear Friends,

 

It is encouraging to finally see clear signs of federal action to support a comprehensive US infrastructure investment plan.

 

Now more than ever, our advocacy is needed to keep stakeholders informed and connected, and to hold politicians to their promises to finally fix our nation’s ailing infrastructure.

 

We have already engaged nearly 280,000 users, and hoping to add many more as interest continues to grow.

 

We require your support in order to rise to this occasion, to make the most of this opportunity. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to InfrastructureUSA.org.
