智慧城市技术的吸引力在于它承诺通过授权利益相关者做出有效和明智的决策来丰富居民的生活，并帮助缓解复杂的问题。通勤交通问题是世界各大城市普遍面临的一个问题。解决方案是困难的，部分原因是我们的许多物理基础设施是为一个不同的时代设计的，当时没有人能想象每天有多少汽车行驶在街道上，部分原因是像公共交通和采用汽车共享，骑自行车和步行这样的选择被许多人视为“交易”，使他们的通勤不那么方便。具有讽刺意味的是，通常情况下，短途步行或乘坐公共汽车会比开车更快，更容易，更便宜。不幸的是，人们普遍缺乏对这些选择的有效性的认识。例如，考虑田纳西州的纳什维尔市。在过去的十年里，该市的交通拥堵几乎翻了一番，预计未来将以更快的速度增长-最近的一项研究发现，它是2009年前25个拥堵城市。
The allure of smart city technologies lies in its promise to enrich the lives of residents by empowering the stakeholders to make efficient and informed decisions and help alleviate complex issues. One such issue that is universally faced by large cities of the world is the problem of commuter traffic. Solutions are difficult, partly because so much of our physical infrastructure was designed for a different era—when no one could imagine just how many cars would hit the streets each day—and partly because options like mass transit and adopting car shares, biking, and walking are seen by many as “trading down” making their commute less convenient. The irony is that very often, a short walk or bus ride would be far faster, easier, and cheaper than driving. Unfortunately, there is a general lack of awareness among people about the effectiveness of these options. For example, consider the city of Nashville, TN. The traffic congestion in the city has nearly doubled over the last decade and is expected to grow at an even faster rate in future—a recent study found it to be the top 25 congested cities in
