| Abstract | Smart cities that use technology and data for efficiency optimization, sustainability, and well-being of citizens face a lot of challenges. Because all of the aforementioned challenges share a common characteristic of complexity, achieving success will need careful preparation and coordinated effort. This research presents a novel approach utilizing deep learning models to address issues about road congestion, specifically by offering secure routes for pedestrians and cyclists. The Global Positioning System (GPS) data stored in the cloud is used as input for the proposed work. In the proposed work, the flow of vehicles, their speed, and the occupancy have been predicted. The need for deep learning to resolve the traffic problem is that deep learning methods are highly efficient when compared to statistical techniques as they provide more than 90% of accuracy in forecasting. The novel approaches used in this paper are integrated Recurring Neural Networks (RNN)-Long Short Term Memory (LSTM)- Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to form RLC (RNN-LSTM-CNN) models. The system encompasses appropriate methods for improving the transportation system’s efficiency by mitigating environmental impacts. The implementation of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) along with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) are used to analyze historical traffic flow data by predicting future traffic conditions by optimizing traffic signal timings, traffic flow, and public transportation schedules to reduce idling time and fuel consumption, leading to lower emissions by predicting Electric Vehicle (EV) charging demand patterns, optimize charging stations’ locations and driver routes, and manage energy distribution more efficiently. The proposed Deep Learning-based models perform better when compared to the other methods and hold the potential to transform urban mobility, making it more efficient, safer, and environmentally friendly in the smart cities of the future as it provides higher forecasting accuracy when compared to the statistical and machine learning models.Performance analysis of the proposed work provides a minimum absolute mean error of 17.6, mean absolute precision error of 0.066 and the root square mean error of 28.80 when comparing with the state of the art traffic prediction systems. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2025. |
