Decision-making for Mobility and Sustainable Transportation 

Abstract
Technologies enable the deployment of new transportation solutions and services
that use less energy, reduces an impact on the environment, reduces waste in
operations, and provide a more equitable mobility for users. Technology should not
create more problems than it solves, particularly with regards to social equity (i.e.,
accessibility, inclusiveness, safety, and security), economic efficiency (i.e., cost-effective
and within people’s ability and willingness to pay) or environmental stewardship
(i.e., reduced carbon pollution, and improved water and air quality). What do decision
makers consider before deciding to incorporate emerging transportation technologies
for a more sustainable transportation system? What factors, data, policies, and
research findings do decision makers utilize when contemplating options?
