What happens when transportation becomes obsolete? When you can just transport from place to place

>When you can just transport from place to place
See, you are asking the wrong questions. We are quickly approaching a world where people have no need to be transported in the first place. Communication and delivery technology let people stay at home indefinitely, as many have already experienced during Covid, and there is a good chance that it will be encouraged in the future because moving meatbags around is not particularly cost-efficient.
As for the main question... Abandoned in place and gradually scrapped and recycled, or repurposed for transportation of goods.

travel as a concept becomes meaningless
space and distance are compressed just like information and time are on the internet today
the pace of everyday life increases even further

traveling distracts me from my lack of goals. i walk until i feel like taking a train and then walk and repeat. then go home once cold, sleep. haven't encountered the elusive nippori toneri liner, maybe tomorrow. but spectating the marathon could be fun too

According to Americans, niggers would infest teleportation if it ever becomes cheap, and teleportation would be untenable anyway because the entire universe is too big, so it would never work. New Jersey proves that we just need one more lane, not instantaneous translocation.

Can you really "infest" what is essentially a form of non-transport though? At best they'd all just teleport themselves to KFC leaving the rest of us free to teleport ourselves to wherever else we want to go.
