Future of Rural Transit

Jill Hough, Ali Rahim Taleqani · 2018 · Journal of Public Transportation

Summary. This paper examines how emerging technologies like automated vehicles and hologram telecommuting will reshape rural public transportation in the United States. The authors argue that these innovations will fundamentally change how rural areas are defined geographically, moving from discrete categories to a continuous spectrum based on population density. They identify key drivers of technological change and project significant long-term impacts on rural communities and transportation systems.
