Getting smart about urban mobility – Aligning the paradigms of smart and sustainable
Abstract
'Smart' and 'sustainable' may be opposing or complementary adjectives for mobility. Dichotomous discourses risk prevailing around the notion of smart urban mobility. The paradigms of smart and of sustainable need to be strongly aligned. Affordable, effective, attractive and sustainable must characterise smart mobility. A sociotechnical approach is needed if truly smart urban mobility is to be realised.
