Transport of the Future

High-tech solutions to congested roads and pollution

High-tech solutions to congested roads and pollution. As the world looks for ever smarter and more high-tech solutions to congested roads and pollution, Jane Wakefield explores some of the possible transport of the future. Reporting from the Goodwood Festival of Speed in the south of England, Jane hears from the inventors of flying cars to jet packs. Is it all a bit of fun, or do these designs provide a way for us to re-engineer getting from A to B? Does a mind controlled car even work? Jane hears about a new autonomous car re-engineered to clean the air as it goes from Thomas Heatherwick, architect and designer, from Richard Browning, jet pack inventor and founder of Gravity Industries, and more.
