“…High levels of congestion, delays from inefficient services, commuter frustration and increased carbon emissions are some of the factors prompting authorities to modernise and digitise transport using intelligent systems [53]. These use innovative modelling systems to provide users with more information, increasing the quality of interactions between transport services [54].…”

“…For example, a DT could be queried to provide information on geometric deformities in a 3D representation of a bridge [58]. The work of [54] builds on the potential for simulations and argues that key to enabling DTs is using mathematical modelling to analyse the transport network and develop proposals for optimizing the network, to justify investments in transport infrastructure. Interestingly, survey respondents specifically from the highways and autonomous vehicle sector all agreed with the statement that 'A digital twin must have some form of computational or machine intelligence to generate insights based on incoming information, as opposed to just the human generation of insights'.…”

This research explores the existing definitions, concepts and applications surrounding the efficient implementation and use of digital twins (DTs) within civil infrastructure systems (CISs). The CISs within the scope of this research are as follows: transportation, energy, telecommunications, water and waste, as well as Smart Cities, which encompasses all of the previous. The research methodology consists of a review of current literature, a series of semi-structured interviews and a detailed survey. The outcome of this work is a refined definition of DTs within CISs, in addition to a set of recommendations for both future academic research and industry best practice.

“…Hence, Chandra et al (2017) stated that the main objectives of ITS are to evaluate, develop, analyse and integrate new technologies and concepts to achieve traffic efficiency, improve environmental quality, save energy and time and, at the same time, improve the safety and comfort of drivers, pedestrians and other traffic users. According to Rudskoy et al (2021), the three basic functions of ITS include transport modelling, regulation and monitoring of traffic lights, planning and management of the transport network. They claim that using these means significantly helps ITS in solving the following tasks (Rudskoy et al, 2021):…”

Barriers related to the implementation of intelligent transport systems in cities - the Polish local government’s perspective

Intelligent transport systems (ITS) are undoubtedly an opportunity for the sustainable development of smart cities today. ITS is based on advanced transport technologies that help minimise the emission of harmful substances to the environment. Smart mobility and ITS are related to the use of ICT. The implementation of technologically advanced ITS is associated with several benefits, barriers and difficulties. However, transport, ITS and smart mobility (as a component of a smart city) are indicated as the most desirable option for sustainable urban transport systems. The article aims to identify barriers related to the implementation of ITS in cities from the point of view of people responsible for the organisation of urban transport representing the local government of selected voivodship cities in Poland. The goal formulated in this way allowed to identify the following research question: what are the problems and barriers of implementing ITS in the city from the local government’s perspective? To achieve the paper’s aim, the author based their analysis on a qualitative technique of collecting empirical data. Ten individual in-depth interviews were conducted with representatives of local governments (vice-mayors and members of urban transport organisers) in voivodship cities, which represented six Polish macro-regions. Research results and findings indicate the main categories and subcategories of barriers related to the ITS implementation. The identified barriers are grouped into the following categories: economic, social, organisational, technological and legal. The contribution is twofold: first, in the presentation of the theoretical and practical barriers to ITS in juxtaposition; and second, in identifying the intelligent transportation impact, which affects the provision of being a smarter city. The findings can positively influence as important factors for local governments to focus on intelligent transport.
