ABSTRACT
Niels Bohr facetiously cautioned: “Prediction is very difcult, especially of the future.” Nonetheless, future developments in transit operations are already re¦ected in avast amount of articles. Although we cannot change the direction of the wind (evolution of lifestyles, land-use patterns), we can adjust the sails (create attractive transit systems that will naturally shift people from the automobile to public transit vehicles). This sail-adjustment realization relies heavily on the ongoing development of new technologies.
