Digital transformation in transport infrastructure energy efficiency: Smart cities and sustainable mobility

Abstract

In the context of today's rapidly changing urban environment, digital transformation and the concept of smart cities are becoming important components for sustainable mobility and efficient transport infrastructure. This article is a research study on the trends and prospects of the digital transformation of Russia's transport complex, as well as the role of smart cities in ensuring sustainable mobility in this context. It analyzes key aspects of the integration of digital technologies into transport infrastructure, including the use of the Internet of Things and autonomous vehicles. Advantages and risks of digitalization are discussed, including issues of cybersecurity and data privacy. The paper also highlights the importance of developing joint strategies and regulatory frameworks for smart-city development and sustainable mobility. This research suggests an important assumption that modern cities can achieve outstanding results in sustainable mobility and transport infrastructure efficiency through digital integration and smart city development.
