The World's transport infrastructures (TI) network is facing fast changes due to population growth, mobility, business trades and globalization. More challenges are coming from unforeseen natural and human-induced hazards, including climate change's effects. Meanwhile, technology development continues apace, and new solutions from multi-disciplinary sectors could help solve the main challenges faced by the TI industry. This work presents “SMARTI”, a vision that aims at engineering and implementing concepts such as Sustainability, Multifunctionality, Automation and Resilience within the design, construction and management of TI.

Abstract
The World's transport infrastructures (TI) network is facing fast changes due to population growth, mobility, business trades and globalization. More challenges are coming from unforeseen natural and human-induced hazards, including climate change's effects. Meanwhile, technology development continues apace, and new solutions from multi-disciplinary sectors could help solve the main challenges faced by the TI industry. This work presents “SMARTI”, a vision that aims at engineering and implementing concepts such as Sustainability, Multifunctionality, Automation and Resilience within the design, construction and management of TI. As a result, the paper provides roadmaps for each of the above-mentioned pillars, identifying aims, current practices and stepping stones that infrastructure managers, policymakers and governors should consider toward more sustainable TI within 2030.
