Intelligent appraisal for sustainable urban mobility planning

Rapid development of information and communications technology changed our world for the better in the last couple of years. It has also opened the door ahead of new possibilities in order to organize large social systems like urban transportation more efficiently. However, exploitation of these opportunities in this smarter world is still at a low level. A major reason for this could be that smarter planning of urban transport requires smarter appraisal tools to aid policy making. The objective of this paper is to give an overview on the limitations of current transport appraisal practices and on the way ahead in providing a more intelligent decision-making framework for Sustainable Urban Mobility Planning.
