THE ROLE OF TECHNOLOGY IN ENHANCING SUSTAINABLE TRANSPORTATION

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background to the Study

Sustainable transportation has become a crucial global concern due to increasing urbanization, climate change, and the depletion of natural resources (Banister, 2021). The need for environmentally friendly, efficient, and cost-effective transport solutions has led to the integration of technology in transportation systems. Technological advancements such as electric vehicles (EVs), intelligent transportation systems (ITS), and alternative fuels are transforming the sector and contributing to sustainability (Geels, 2020).

The rapid development of smart technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), and big data analytics, has significantly enhanced the efficiency and sustainability of transportation networks (Zhang & Zhao, 2019). Governments and private organizations are investing in innovative solutions to reduce carbon emissions, minimize traffic congestion, and improve mobility (González-González & Nogués, 2022). Sustainable transport technologies not only address environmental concerns but also contribute to economic growth and urban development.

1.2 Statement of the Problem

Despite technological advancements in the transportation sector, many cities still struggle with issues such as high greenhouse gas emissions, inefficient public transit systems, and traffic congestion (Schwanen, 2021). The adoption of sustainable transportation technologies faces challenges, including high implementation costs, inadequate infrastructure, and policy limitations (Newman & Kenworthy, 2019).

This study seeks to explore the role of technology in enhancing sustainable transportation and assess the barriers to its widespread implementation. By evaluating different technological interventions and their impact on transportation efficiency, environmental sustainability, and economic viability, this research aims to provide actionable recommendations for policymakers and stakeholders.

1.3 Research Objectives

The main objectives of this study are to:

Examine the impact of emerging transportation technologies on sustainability.

Analyze the role of smart infrastructure and IoT in enhancing transportation efficiency.

Assess the challenges associated with adopting sustainable transportation technologies.

Recommend policy and strategic measures for improving the implementation of technology-driven transportation solutions.

1.4 Research Questions

How do emerging technologies contribute to sustainable transportation?

What is the role of smart infrastructure and IoT in improving transportation efficiency?

What are the major challenges hindering the adoption of sustainable transportation technologies?

What policy and strategic measures can enhance the implementation of technology-driven transportation solutions?

1.5 Significance of the Study

This study is significant as it highlights the transformative role of technology in achieving sustainable transportation. It provides insights for policymakers, urban planners, and technology developers on how to integrate innovative transport solutions to reduce environmental impact and enhance mobility (Docherty, Marsden, & Anable, 2018). Additionally, it serves as a valuable reference for future research on sustainable urban transportation.

1.6 Scope of the Study

The study focuses on the technological innovations in sustainable transportation, including electric vehicles, smart traffic management systems, and alternative fuel sources. It covers global trends while placing emphasis on case studies from both developed and developing countries to understand the feasibility and challenges of technology adoption in different contexts (Sperling, 2021).

1.7 Definition of Key Terms

Sustainable Transportation: A system that meets current mobility needs without compromising future generations’ ability to meet their transportation needs (Banister, 2021).

Smart Infrastructure: Advanced transportation networks that integrate IoT, AI, and big data to enhance efficiency and safety (Geels, 2020).

Electric Vehicles (EVs): Automobiles powered by electricity instead of fossil fuels, reducing carbon emissions (González-González & Nogués, 2022).

Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS): A combination of technologies that improve transport efficiency and safety through real-time data collection and analysis (Zhang & Zhao, 2019).
