Continued urban development requires the ongoing evolution of sustainable and efficient mobility options and services in our nation’s most populated areas. What is the future of transport for people and goods from one location to another?’

“Density is the future of transport for people and goods as dense, mixed use, and location efficient communities will allow people to choose how they engage with the built environment, gain more time back in their day, and provide a wider access to a greater amount of goods than sprawling low density auto oriented communities. Density is also better for businesses too! Dense communities decreases the distance between goods and consumers (which directly translates to profit for the companies as that shorter distance directly translates into lower shipping costs which is a significant portion of a consumer goods companies bottom line), helps with the forecasting of and provision of goods (again great for the bottom line, allows for companies to really lean into Just In Time shipping as there is shorter distance to transport goods which means that companies can be more responsive to fluctuations quicker), and requires less trucks on the roads (better for the environment, companies’ bottom lines, and the consumer as there are less trucks on the road contributing to traffic a win/win/win).”
