Abstract

The present article aims to make a critical view of the current and prospective situation of mass transport systems in the Caribbean region based on technologies. One of the important and sensitive aspects of analysis is the impact that these systems are generating in the economic, social and environmental conditions. While the integration of the various modes of transport at the national level has made notable progress, in the Caribbean region the implementation of similar systems is only in the preliminary stage. Then, essential aspects will be reviewed for the development of mass transport systems and simultaneously assess how technological development can generate contributions to expedite the process of the same and finally the most representative and reflections of general interest will be stated
