Cost of asphalt is going up significantly! Even with electric cars, cost of oil may end up making track based systems more effective.Also, what is the maintenance cost of a road. Vs a track? And what about reclaiming all the land on the ground, and land used for parking? In some areas, that will more than pay for the system!
- protomyth 15y agoGiven the upwards cost, and this sounds dumb, but I was kinda hoping for a revolution in bricks for roads. The brick laying machine out of Europe combine with some embedded RFID chip in each brick (perhaps with a different code for the road edge and turning lane bricks) might make for an interesting experiment.
