Summary from the TLDR newsletter

The Japanese government plans to connect major cities with automated zero-emissions logistics links. There are plans to complete an initial link between Tokyo and Osaka by 2034. The system will be designed to quietly and efficiently shift millions of tons of cargo while getting tens of thousands of trucks off the road. Japan's population collapse may mean it will have logistics issues by 2030 due to a lack of workers.
