According to the US Department of Transportation, “Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) apply a variety of technologies to monitor, evaluate, and manage transportation systems to enhance efficiency and safety.” Smart transportation can be defined as an advanced technology application that aims to provide innovative services associated with different modes of transport and traffic management that allow users to effectively utilize the modern transportation system.

Smart transportation systems facilitate better informed, safer, more coordinated, and smarter use of transport networks. These systems use advanced information and communication technologies applied to vehicles and transport infrastructure to help improve traffic management, minimize congestion, improve safety, reduce the impact of maintenance activities, and ultimately provide a more intelligent use of transport networks. Smart transportation is an integral part of modern-day smart city projects and hence, are gaining much-required traction in recent years, propelling the overall market growth.

The growth of this market is attributed to the government initiatives towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions, rising urbanization, increasing demand for efficient transportation, and technological advancements to enhance customer experience. In addition, the emergence of autonomous vehicles, increasing investments in smart city projects, and decline in vehicle ownership with the advancement of MaaS offers significant growth opportunities for the smart transportation market. However, the lack of standardized and uniform technology obstructs the growth of this market to some extent.

The Impact of COVID-19 on the Smart Transportation Market

In the first quarter of 2020, the world was hit by a COVID-19 pandemic. The outbreak was declared as a global pandemic by WHO, as it has spread in many countries across the globe and raised the number of cases multi-folds in few weeks. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely hit many economies around the globe. The combat measures like complete lockdown and quarantine to fight against COVID-19 have put a strong adverse impact on many businesses across the globe, including the smart transportation market.

The effects of COVID-19 are being felt across the transportation sector. From maritime transportation to airlines, all modes of transportation felt the brunt of the pandemic. Travel restrictions were put in place to minimize the spread of the virus, which hindered the capability of companies to transport passengers from different places. As a result, transportation revenues dropped significantly, resulting in the deduction of wages and transport companies shutting their operation because of bankruptcy.

To control the spread of COVID-19, countries placed restrictions on domestic transit and/or closed border crossings for road freight transport services. The maritime industry has largely proved resilient to the COVID-19 outbreak. Despite the crises, a vast majority of ports have succeeded in staying open to cargo operations. However, most of them remained closed for passenger traffic. Despite disruptions at ports, the shipping industry has largely continued to operate worldwide, facilitating essential supplies and medicines.

Transportation was among the most affected sectors globally. Transportation companies and governments faced several challenges to gain the customers’ trust back in them and safeguard their safety and security. Since the transport industry is among the most vulnerable and affected industries during the pandemic, it is anticipated that it will recover with a considerable growth rate over the forecasted period. Since transport is the most decisive cornerstone for a city’s functionality, development, and prosperity, revolutionizing transport transforms the concept of the city. Urban structure and transport system developments are closely connected, as evidenced by theories like the urban land rent theory and location theory, which conceptualize the connection between transport and urban land use.

Rising urbanization and demand for efficient transportation expected to drive the smart transportation market

Presently, more than half of the world’s population lives in urban areas. The migration of human resource towards cities is expected to continue at an even faster pace over the next few decades. By 2050, the global population is projected to reach around 9.8 billion, and it is estimated that more than twice as many people in the world will be living in urban (6.7 billion) than in rural settings (3.1 billion). Mobility provision and its impact on urban development can be significantly improved by employing intelligent transport systems in general and automated transport in particular. Also, as the cities grow in dimension, people will move to shop and access other social needs/wants, which often cause unavoidable congestion.

The challenge of congestion is a perennial issue for cities worldwide and is consistently getting more complex with every passing year. The increasing population in cities is straining urban transportation systems. People who live and work across major cities of the world are faced with increasing levels of congestion, delays, total travel time, costs, frustration, accidents, and loss of life. According to the INRIX (2018) Global Traffic Scorecard that analyzed congestion and mobility trends for over 200 cities across 38 countries, over half of the cities registered over 100 hours lost in congestion per driver per year. For instance, Americans lost 99 hours a year due to congestion, costing nearly USD 88 billion in 2019, an average of USD 1,377 per year.

Smart transportation utilizes information technology and artificial intelligence to efficiently manage and coordinate urban transportation systems. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a powerful concept still in its infancy that has the potential, if utilized responsibly, to provide a vehicle for positive change that could promote sustainable transitions to a more resource-efficient livability paradigm. AI interventions have potential applications for the vehicle, the infrastructure, the driver, or transport user, particularly for how these interact dynamically to deliver a transport service that promotes user empowerment and supports human-machine interactions. The provision of mobility solutions for battling congestion, pollution, and environmental degradation through AI technology that is capable of providing better, faster, cleaner, and cheaper ways to move around is the pillar, together with telecommunication and energy applications, of what we call smart cities and the way forward for urban science.
