This has often required cities to invest in infrastructure projects and to re-think their transportation planning strategies. Increased demand for housing, offices, and other types of development in cities. This has often led to rapid urbanization and the growth of cities, which has put pressure on planners to provide adequate housing and other amenities for the growing population. Economic development of cities, as companies have become more mobile and can locate their operations in cities around the world.
