The paper focuses on urban transport challenges related to the Sustainable Development Goals defined by the United Nations. Smart city is a possible way to face these challenges in order to increase sustainable development and quality of life in urban areas. Following the European approach, transport, Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and energy constitute the smart city pillars. An integrated planning process produces decisions about infrastructures and services related to each pillar and their interactions. The paper analyses an evaluation framework for supporting the integrated planning process, with a specific focus on decisions concerning urban transport infrastructures and services. The framework allows analysts to assess the potential decisions' effects, with particular attention to urban mobility. Transport System Models (TSMs), useful to simulate effects of planned decisions, are the core of the framework. By adopting technological solutions (ICT tools), it increases the TSM's accuracy level. This is possible with Intelligent Transport Systems (ITSs) that integrate information and data deriving from ICT tools with TSMs. The evaluation framework extends the analysis to energy effects, taking into account energy issues connected to freight and people mobility needs. Then the framework supports transport and energy decisions by means of ex-ante and ex-post evaluations. The presented study cases represent a framework of different urban application contexts.

“…The paper describes the main regulatory and planning instruments for urban areas operating in Italy and the UK, starting from the comparison of the two planning processes [5]. The definition of standards to regulate the relationships between private and public spaces followed different approaches in the two countries: Italy followed a top-down process by the introduction of standards at national level that are considered as a lower-bound values for the local planning process.…”

The paper describes the main regulatory and planning instruments for urban areas operating in Italy and the UK. The relationships between private and public spaces followed different approaches in the two countries. Italy followed a topdown process by the introduction of standards at national and regional levels. UK followed a bottom-up approach, where the national level provides a framework within which local communities can produce their own local plans. The preliminary study presented in this paper makes a comparison of Italian and British standards relating to open spaces.

This paper focuses on sustainable mobility city planning as a process that innovates and develops cities.The indications laid down by the European Union (UE) urge us to review urban spaces in order to transform degraded areas into smart areas and, therefore, restart a process of rebalancing and sustainability, with the goal of transforming cities into smart cities. The planning activity supports the social, economic, and technological change processes. The regeneration of disused areas creates opportunities for sustainable growth. This paper presents the issue of urban regeneration. A project of an urban distribution center, in a city logistics system, is designed for a disused railway area, located near the harbour in Reggio Calabria. The case study has tested the application of a model of urban regeneration, through the design of innovation zones, according to European Union strategies to encourage the development of a smart city.
