Abstract

"Non-smart" cities are particularly challenged today, if we consider transportation problems, meanwhile smart cities are able to find solutions to these problems. In spite of this, the concept of smart city is still undefined, even if there is abundant research on this concept and on the components of the smart city. This study aims to explain the manner in which a smart city offers a sustainable economic development and transportation, as well as a high quality life for its inhabitants. The perception of individuals on the current public transportation in Bucharest represents the main objective of the case study. According to our research, the inhabitants from Bucharest are highly unsatisfied with the public transportation, which results in their desire for better transportation and in solutions proposed for this reason. As a solution, we propose the implementation of a TOD.
