Evaluation of Smart Mobility Indicators in Latin-American Cities
Major metropolitan cities in Latin America are facing transportation crises in terms of congestion, long travel times, pollution, accidents, and user safety. Similarly, to cities in developed countries, many cities in Latin America have implemented smart mobility programs to address these problems. In recent years, worldwide models have been developed to evaluate these programs, but most of these models use indicators and metrics that do not consider the mobility problems in Latin America. This research identified eight specific mobility challenges in Latin America and proposed new indicators with their metrics that allowed evaluating these challenges and the current state of smart mobility in the region. In addition, seven indicators with smart features were identified. The evaluation of the proposed indicators shows that the best positioned cities in Latin America in terms of mobility are Buenos Aires and Santiago de Chile. It also shows that the proposed model to evaluate mobility does not coincide with international rankings that evaluate mobility and transportation in Latin America, which makes it necessary to develop models that evaluate the reality of smart mobility in the region. This work will provide useful information for the development of a new mobility model with a more realistic and data-driven comparative assessment of mobility challenges and smart mobility programs in Latin American cities.
