Abstract How to improve traffic efficiency has become a challenge for the planning, design, construction of smart cities. The large-scale adaptation to digital networks and mobile platforms provide smart solutions to urban management issues such as transportation services, traffic congestion and road navigation. The aim of research is to demonstrate how digital media is effectively integrated into the implementation of efficient intelligent transport management systems (ITMS). Case studies analyse DiDi, a mobile app which provides transportation services such as ride-hailing and ridesharing in China’s urban cities, and Amap, a location-based digital mapping solutions provider for smartphone users. Analysis shows that digital networks play a crucial economic role by producing robust, agile, interactive data that improves users’ awareness of traffic conditions, from drivers to passengers and travellers. Findings demonstrate that innovative network-based features and capabilities such as interactivity and real-time response enable users to plan for smoother journeys to destinations, suggesting that urban mobility is increasingly dependent on technological solutions to provide services accessible to all. Other emerging smart cities should emulate China’s urban mobility design model utilising digital platforms to reduce resource use and time wastage through better informed, better connected and more efficient interactive systems. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
