Abstract: Abstract Contemporary cities are areas with diverse functions on which economic and social activities are concentrated. The concept of a Smart City as a progressive city of the future assumes sustainable urban development based on innovative technologies, the application of which is aimed at increasing the functionality of cities by economical, effective and ecological management. The purpose of intelligent technologies used in the city is to support the residents and provide them with comfortable, economical and safe lives. This concept covers economic, infrastructural, organizational and social issues. One of the elements of the Smart City concept is smart mobility in the sense of safe, effective and efficiently integrated management systems of transport, logistics, public transportation, bicycle traffic and parking—due to the use of intelligent transport systems, which constitute a wide collection of various tools based on information and telecommunications technology. The aim of the paper is to present selected ITS solutions that increase the efficiency and integration of the urban transport system.
