| Abstract | At the beginning of the 21st century, smart cities became a favourite concept worldwide. There are many reasons why cities should be redesigned and continuously evolved into smarter ones. Of course, the realization of a smart society requires the cooperation of all stakeholders and various organizations. The concept of smart cities includes transport and transport systems management, smart urban and micromobility, logistics, smart infrastructure construction, etc. Noteworthy is also mobility to create connected transport systems that allow flexibility and efficiency. There is increasing emphasis on creating 'walkable neighbourhoods, i.e., safe walking and cycling infrastructure, preferably completely free of vehicles, with a regulated public ecosystem in interconnected areas, with quick access to a public or micro-mobile provider. Introducing walkable neighbourhoods and making; therefore, the city more liveable is one of the most talked-about methods of transforming a city into a smart city. The notion of walkability and walkable neighbourhoods has recently become an emergent narrative in city planning. Improving walkability in cities is very important and must ensure citizens safe walking environments, sidewalks and excellent and secure cycling infrastructure to meet most of their daily needs by foot, bicycle or local transport a few minutes from home. This study investigates smart mobility concepts, walkability, and walkable neighbourhood principles through a comprehensive literature review, representing essential dimensions of the smart city concept. This study aims to describe the conceptual framework for a better understanding and define the idea of walkable neighbourhoods that are fundamental to creating a liveable, smart city. |
