Introduction Individuals and cultures rely on transportation networks for survival, especially in contemporary societies where the movement of people, products, and production methods is critical for meeting our basic economic and social requirements. Transport development will have a distinct influence on humanity in the future. The building of modern transportation systems depends on conventional bus rides, railways, airplanes, and private vehicles, which have a significant ecological effect, such as continuous carbon emissions. Transport systems in the future, on the other hand, will be built on environmental conservation and advanced technology, such as autonomous cars, flying vehicles, and carpooling services. These new modes of mobility are significant for the environment and sustainability, but they negatively impact society, such as high unemployment levels. Thus, it is imperative to delve into a discourse on how future transportation systems will affect the community and determine efficient ways of controlling the challenges involved. 2. Background 2.1 The impact of traditional and future public transportation systems on society Trends reveal that traditional public transit systems also have a beneficial impact on people’s lives. Public transportation systems such as roads and railways link metropolitan areas, influence human activities, and integrate societal, economic, and ecological processes with urbanization and population increase (Amin & Vyas, 2016). Furthermore, through linkages in urban, rural, and developing areas, the transportation network aid in socio-economic growth and improved quality of life. Adverse effects of conventional transport systems incorporate social and environmental implications. Transportation is a significant cause of air pollution, mainly through high levels of carbon emissions to the atmosphere. Amin and Vyas (2016) indicate that automobiles and aircraft contribute to large volumes of carbon dioxide. Environmentalists have found that the rapid growth of cars...
