Abstract The presented article focuses on the area of sustainable transport within the Smart City concept. Mobility, created in connection with the Smart City concept, is a service integrating several other types of transport services into one complex platform. The article examined the current situation in this area and its future development in the Slovak Republic. The main motivation of the authors for focusing on the Smart City concept was the topicality of this issue and its usability for process optimization, cost savings, and the achievement of sustainability. Methods such as orientation analysis, content analysis of documents, or sociological questioning using the questionnaire survey technique were used in the analysis. Several research questions and a research hypothesis were defined. It focused on the operation of local governments in the implementation of the Smart City concept and their orientation on the aspect of transport. The main findings include the fact that 22 Slovak cities out of the total number of 39 analysed cities are interested in the application of modern technologies. Another finding concerns the availability of a strategy focused directly on the Smart City concept on the city's website. It can be argued that only five websites had such a strategy available. The output of the research presented in this article was the creation of recommendations aimed at the implementation of the Smart City concept regarding the support of sustainable transport in the Slovak Republic. Using these recommendations, local governments will be able to formulate their digital strategies more effectively, leading to the practical implementation of the Smart City concept.
