Smart Solutions for Big/Small Cities

Abstract

This chapter deals with smart solutions for urban traffic in the big/small cities using radio-frequency identification technology (RFID). The current state of mobility of the population has an increasing trend, which is mainly reflected in the growth of individual car transport. The automotive industry supports this trend by developing and producing cars for all segments of the population. The traffic, especially in the cities, is oversaturated by the transport and it is the cause of the frequent collision situations. As a result, there is an increase of problems such as imbalance between the need of the transport services and actual road permeability, road congestion by private transport and freight transport, increasing transport time losses, and negative environmental impact of transport, but one of the main problems is increase in the number of accidents on the road and speed and quality of transportation; as a result we get frequent collapses on the roads and increased accident rate, even in smaller towns. Awareness raising of drivers will contribute to the quality of urban logistics, which will allow faster transportation of goods and services, as well as move to other road users while ensuring mobility of all road users and improving overall city logistics with significant economic.
