A Framework for Integrating Transportation into Smart Cities (Policy Brief)

In recent years, economic, environmental, and political forces have quickly given rise to “Smart Cities” — an array of strategies that can transform transportation in cities. This research provides a smart cities framework that can be employed to: 1) understand what a smart city is and how to replicate smart city successes; 2) the role of pilot projects, metrics, and evaluations to test, implement, and replicate strategies; and 3) understand the role of shared micromobility, big data, and other key issues impacting communities.
