Abstract
The main purpose of the paper is to identify the factors determining the implementation of sustainable and smart urban mobility (SSUM) solutions. The authors conducted deep desk research of European Union strategic documents, national and local plans of sustainable and smart mobility in cities, enriched with scientific literature review and practical case studies of implemented projects. Based on the results of desk research, literature review, STEEPVL analysis was used to classify factors and the method of mind mapping to visualize main results. The main results of the research is identification and classification of factors determining the implementation of SSUM solutions into seven dimensions: social, technological, economic, environmental, political, values and legal factors. Moreover, selected examples of failures in the implementation of smart and sustainable mobility solutions are presented. The study results may contribute to identifying the driving forces of its SSUM success and potential inhibitors. Thanks to STEEPVL analysis, the large number of identified factors was sort out and classified into seven groups. The outcomes of the study may comprise introduction to the complete STEEPVL analysis which involves verification of the factors by experts, characteristics of the factors, assessment of their importance and predictability as well as development of scenarios of SSUM development. The study has practical implications as the research results provide decision-makers and academic researchers with valuable insights into fundamental aspects that drive cities to undertake smart mobility initiatives.
