Digital pathways : towards efficiency of smart cities' mobility through digital transformation
| Resumo: | This dissertation investigates the impact of digital advancements on urban mobility in smart cities amidst rapid urbanization. It explores how they can enhance the efficiency of urban mobility systems, which are crucial for reducing energy consumption, emissions, and improving quality of life in response to the challenges posed by urban expansion. Drawing on a literature review and ten semi-structured interviews with experts, the study dives into the integration of digital technologies in urban mobility, identifying both opportunities and challenges. It connects theoretical insights with practical experiences, emphasizing the potential of digital technologies to enhance urban mobility in existing and emerging smart cities. Structured around the themes of smart city concepts, urban mobility complexities, and digital advancements, the dissertation analyses the interplay between technology, urban planning, and societal needs. The findings are intended to inform policymakers, urban planners, and technologists on effectively integrating digital technologies into urban mobility frameworks. It then underscores the importance of aligning digital advancements with robust infrastructure and comprehensive policy frameworks to tackle urban mobility challenges. It highlights the potential of these technologies to improve efficiency regarding travel time, safety, accessibility, sustainability, and cost. Nonetheless, the research then points two main limitations, indicating the need for further study, while simultaneously pointing towards a holistic urban mobility strategy that integrates digital innovation with structural and policy elements to meet the fast-changing needs of urban populations. |
