Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Mobility and the demands on their interrelated systems has greatly increased and unprecedentially challenged our interconnected transport systems in recent years. Similarly, climate change will stretch transport and traffic systems beyond their capacity in the coming decades, demanding its infrastructure to remain resilient and its operations to become carbon neutral or even negative. At the same time, we must meet the SDG goals. This Special Issue is dedicated to exploring the latest advances in sustainable and resilient mobility infrastructures and the transport systems’ ability to reduce carbon emissions.
The Special Issue seeks contributions on transport and traffic producing zero or carbon-negative emissions. These could be transport options and infrastructure innovations using renewable energy sources, or contributions revolving around electric vehicles and eHighway systems, mega charging infrastructures, active transportation options and micromobility solutions, public transit systems with green infrastructure and zero emission accessibility options, intelligent transit options and smart traffic infrastructures, efuels and hydrogen vehicles, or autonomous vehicles.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to engage in the ongoing debate on climate-resilient mobilities and the emerging trends in mobility infrastructures and innovations in sustainable transportation and their potential contribution to reducing carbon emissions while meeting the SDG goals.
