Abstract

The emergence of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) offers innovative solutions through advanced technologies, including real-time traffic management, vehicle monitoring, and connected vehicle communications. These systems enhance traffic flow, improve safety, and reduce environmental impacts, presenting a promising avenue for sustainable urban mobility. This chapter investigates the causes of traffic congestion, its environmental repercussions, and the effectiveness of both traditional and intelligent management strategies, ultimately highlighting the need for integrated approaches to enhance transportation efficiency and sustainability. Additionally, the study considers two case studies, such as Intelligent Transport Systems in Singapore and Smart Waste Management in Barcelona to illustrate the practical applications and impacts of these strategies in real-world urban environments.
