全球城市化的进程不断深入,而交通发展也紧随其后。在圣保罗,汽车拥有量正以每天1000辆的速度递增。在印度各大城市,交通工具的增长速度是其人口增长速度的4倍。交通拥堵不仅让人心烦意乱,而且代价高昂。最新调查显示,交通延误可以让一个国家在一年中损失数百亿美元。上下班延误更是对生产力和生活质量造成了巨大损失。在智慧的地球,智能技术可以应用在基础设施中,有效减少出行所产生的经济、社会和环境成本。
The process of global urbanization continues to deepen, while transport development is also followed. In Sao Paulo, car ownership is increasing at a rate of 1,000 vehicles a day. In major cities in India, transport is growing four times faster than its population. Traffic jams are not only distracting, but also costly. The latest survey shows that traffic delays can cost a country tens of billions of dollars a year. The delay in commuting is a huge loss to productivity and quality of life. On the smarter planet, smart technologies can be used in infrastructure to effectively reduce the economic, social and environmental costs of travel.
