Overview

Sustainable Construction Management and Transportation Planning offers a comprehensive analysis of the prospects and challenges of decarbonizing the environment. Examining smart technologies, such as drones, blockchain technology, artificial intelligence, and virtual reality, the book investigates their role in minimizing the effects of climate change. It also addresses the key challenges in decarbonizing the environment, including cost, cultural resistance, lack of standardization and regulation, and a lack of coordination between various stakeholders. In doing so, the authors shed light on the importance of policies in driving decarbonization efforts and how these must be implemented and coordinated in a supportive manner across all sectors, regions, and industries, ensuring that all stakeholders work together to meet global climate goals. This book will appeal to policymakers, academics, researchers, transport planners, urban planners, and urban/transport planning students looking to learn more about the appropriate smart technologies for sustainable transport planning in smart cities.
