“…To facilitate evidence-informed planning, the final set of indicators developed for this study will be disseminated through the Australian Urban Observatory (AUO) [89], a digital planning platform measuring livability across Australian cities. Indicator frameworks populated with administrative and spatial data are now being made available via digital platforms such as the AUO as a convenient resource to support knowledge translation, with the government, academia and practices providing evidence to assist policy development towards integrated, collaborative land use and transport planning [21,39] in linking to smart cities and sustainable development that resolves city-wide issues relating to infrastructure, transport and governance [90][91][92]. In Australia, the AUO disseminates policy-relevant indicators available at varying degrees of disaggregation for Australia's 21 largest cities, where over three quarters of Australians currently live.…”

Confronted with rapid urbanization, population growth, traffic congestion, and climate change, there is growing interest in creating cities that support active transport modes including walking, cycling, or public transport. The ‘30 minute city’, where employment is accessible within 30 min by active transport, is being pursued in some cities to reduce congestion and foster local living. This paper examines the spatial relationship between employment, the skills of residents, and transport opportunities, to answer three questions about Australia’s 21 largest cities: (1) What percentage of workers currently commute to their workplace within 30 min? (2) If workers were to shift to an active transport mode, what percent could reach their current workplace within 30 min? and (3) If it were possible to relocate workers closer to their employment or relocate employment closer to their home, what percentage could reach work within 30 min by each mode? Active transport usage in Australia is low, with public transport, walking, and cycling making up 16.8%, 2.8%, and 1.1% respectively of workers’ commutes. Cycling was found to have the most potential for achieving the 30 min city, with an estimated 29.5% of workers able to reach their current workplace were they to shift to cycling. This increased to 69.1% if workers were also willing and able to find a similar job closer to home, potentially reducing commuting by private motor vehicle from 79.3% to 30.9%.

“…• Smart Mobility It refers to the development of a modern transportation system throughout the city' network that meets the needs of all users as citizens, and visitors. These innovative mobility solutions align with a plan focused on the availability of information and communication technologies (ICT) as well as local and international accessibility [26]. Smart cities have to be equipped with a range of intelligent transportation modes and initiatives like smart traffic management, intelligent parking, integrated multimodal transportation, which promotes urban mobility [24].…”

“…• Smart Infrastructure It highlights the improvement of infrastructure and the provision of city services that leverage technology, information and data to meet the needs of citizens and support their use of resources. By providing water, electricity, affordable housing, healthcare and educational facilities, and IT connectivity to improve the quality of life [23,24] • Smart Governance It integrates all the relevant stakeholders such as public organizations, businesses and civil society into the decisionmaking process by encouraging public participation through the use of e-government tools and new technologies initiatives like e-services [26]. These services are mainly provided through smart phones and other digital devices, making public services more affordable, transparent and efficient.…”

Life became digitalized and smartly controlled that requiring more energy usage. Smart cities and urbanization focus on the challenge of worldwide urbanization through the recognition of opportunities to integrate social, physical, environmental and technological infrastructure. Urbanization expands the need of all services including water, power, transportation, as well as other facilities. All those infrastructures should be delivered to citizen within a short period of time with very well controlled systems to provide more simple and comfortable life. Furthermore, stakeholders and citizens should be responsible and cooperative with government and organizations in order to achieve better solution for smart sustainable living approach. Although the smart urbanization has the potential to become a positive transformative force for every aspect of sustainable development in cities, there is a lack of knowledge using the smart and sustainable concepts in cities. Therefore, this paper aims to propose a framework which merges the sustainable aspects with the Smart city components. The paper started by an analytical study about smart cities fields and their needs, then a study for sustainability aspects, all this end with a framework tested by a questionnaire to propose guidelines and recommendations to be followed by city planners in order to achieve sustainability goals in smart cities for better impact on citizens.

“…However, implementation of the next generation of clean mass transit projects is severely lacking. There are plenty of demonstrations and projects to prove the efficacy of technologies that are viewed skeptically by the public in this country (Bamwesigye and Hlavackova 2019;Behrendt 2019;Fialová et al 2021;Freudendal-Pedersen et al 2019;Łukaszkiewicz et al 2021). Of course, with transportation, proper land use is another critical issue in United States.…”
