Future Road Transportation Technology

Abstract: 

As road transportation brings us great life changes, it also brings safety and environment problems. Near one million people died in road accidents each year and road constructions consumed un-countable nonrenewable resources. New transportation technologies such as connected vehicle, travel demand control, traffic safety control and new pavement material etc. are urgently needed to reduce the negative safety and environmental impacts from transportation and promote the green economy through smart growth.
