This research explores the application of the Cross-Impact Balances (CIB) method in identifying the factors that need to be included in the strategic planning process for the adoption of smart mobility solutions in new cities within developing countries. Cities in developing countries are facing several urban problems including traffic congestion, high population density, poverty, lack of affordable housing, inadequate infrastructures, economic downturn, urban sprawl, and urban decay. Such problems have a significant impact on urban mobility systems. Smart mobility systems use emerging technologies to arrive at solutions to many of these problems by creating connected and sustainable transportation systems that can move people more efficiently and safely. The Cross-Impact Balances method, known for its ability to assess interdependencies and uncertainties in complex systems, is employed as a decision support tool. The research investigates the descriptors influencing smart mobility success in developing cities, considering aspects such as infrastructure readiness, regulatory environments, technological disparities, and socio-economic dynamics. The paper presents the approach and outcome of the application of the CIB method, allowing for a comprehensive analysis of the interconnected factors and their potential impacts on the strategic planning process. The paper recommends to use the resulting factor with considerable priority, based on the outcome of the CIB method, to arrive at the strategic planning framework (the goals, objectives, and broad strategies), to achieve the vision of establishing new cities that could be characterized to have smart mobility systems.
