The combination of public and shared transport is necessary for clean and smart mobility. Shared economy is a concept of social change in the 21st century. This paper is focused on above mentioned issues. It describes levels of the smart city concept and principles and forms of shared economy in transport and shared mobility. .

Summary

Introduction

Transport is one of the key factors for the development of every society. Transport is not a goal itself, but it is only a means of economic development and opportunity for achieving social and regional cohesion. Road transport, which creates negative externalities, is one of the biggest violators of sustainable development This is due to the company's increased transport requirements due to the globalization process. The Slovak Republic set a global objective of transport policy in line with the sustainable development principles The primary goal of Smart Cities is to find a concept that will provide cities with a sustainable model of development, excellent quality of life, safety and maximum energy efficiency. All of this can be achieved only with the use of modern technologies. If one definition is to be chosen, we are inclined to the following [6]: "quality of life is the mental aspect of life as a health, social relationships, the quality of the natural environment, existing living conditions and personal well-being" [8, 9, 12]
