Today’s inefficient transport represents an extra cost to cities and their inhabitants, in terms of lost time and productivity. Motivation Source: The European Commission
Journey times, crowding and network density all impact a city's productivity. For the most part, the economic cost of inefficient transport will continue to rise. Motivation Source: UN Habitat
Greater transport efficiency today could boost GDP by $119bn in the 35 cities analyzed, and by up to $238bn annually by For all big cities globally, the potential uplift could be as much as $800bn in 2030 – per year! Motivation Source: Siemens Study "The Mobility Opportunity", 2014
Driving is an essential part of Transportation Motivation 76.4% of commuters drove to work alone 9.7% carpooled 5.0% of workers took public transportation to work 74.8% of total daily person-miles of travel are not related to work Source: U.S. Census Bureau Survey (2011)
How can cities improve their transport network? – How technology can maximize existing capacity and improve quality for cities? Challenge
