Transport has always played a major role in shaping society. By enabling or restricting the movement of people and goods, the presence or absence of transport services and infrastructure has historically been determining for cultures to connect, for knowledge to be shared, and for societies to evolve and prosper, or, in contrast, for societies to decay and fail. Since the beginning of the twenty-first century, transport has been going through a revolution worldwide. One of the primary goals for the transport sector is clear: it needs to be decarbonized and become more sustainable. At the same time, technological advances are shaping the transport sector toward smart services and societies. The Special Collection showcases some of the latest advances in research towards sustainable and technology-enabled transport.
交通运输在塑造社会方面一直发挥着重要作用。通过促进或限制人员和货物的流动，运输服务和基础设施的存在与否在历史上决定了文化能否相互连接、知识能否得以共享、社会能否发展繁荣，或者相反，导致社会衰败和失败。自21世纪初以来，交通运输正在全球范围内经历一场变革。运输部门的一个主要目标很明确：它需要脱碳并变得更具可持续性。与此同时，技术进步正在将运输部门塑造成智能服务和智能社会。本专题文集展示了在可持续和技术赋能交通研究方面的一些最新进展。
