Özet:

In recent years, the developments in information and communication technologies have made a diverse change necessary to include the economy of the cities we live, the socio-cultural structure and the administrative dynamics. In this context, the existence of an innovative, technology-based and data-based transport system to enhance the mobility of cities should be assessed in the framework of sustainability. Intelligent Transport Systems (AUS) is a systematic approach to organizing, managing and directing transport and related factors (instruments, infrastructure, user and decision center) with the help of electronic and informational systems. The AUS, which is commonly formed by the merger of many sub-systems, affects our lives in many areas, from passenger information systems to travel planning, from dynamic cross-control to fleet management and control. The main objective of AUS is to relieve the burden of users (drivers, passengers and pedestrians), if necessary decision makers, and to improve the economic, environmental and social impacts of transportation. In this study, taking into account the National Intelligent Transport Systems Strategy Certificate prepared by the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure (UAB) in 2014, the services that municipalities in Turkey offer in the field of public transport have been evaluated within the framework of the AUS. A total of 81 municipalities, including the majority of the city, have been evaluated on traffic management, passenger information, accessibility and mobile applications, which services they offer under these main titles have been examined. When the results are seen, it appears that the vast majority of the municipalities have serious infrastructure and services in the point of passenger information and electronic payment systems. On the other hand, while some municipalities have been effective applications on accessibility and mobile applications, it has been open to development with general reputation.

Özet:

Advancement in information and communication technologies has considerably affected the economy, socio-cultural structure and administrative dynamics of the cities we live in. In this context, the existence of an innovative, technology- and data-based transportation system should be considered within the scope of sustainability in order to increase the mobility of cities. In this context, Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) provides a systematic approach to regulating, managing and directing transportation and related factors (vehicles, infrastructure, users and decision makers) with the help of information and communication systems. ITS, which generally consists of many sub- systems, affects our lives in many areas from passenger information systems to travel planning, dynamic junction control to fleet management. The main objective of the ITS is to alleviate the burden of both users (drivers, passengers, pedestrians) and decision-makers to improve the economic, environmental and social impacts of transportation. In this study, ITS applications in public transportation in Turkey are assessed based on the National Intelligent Transportation Systems Strategy Document prepared by the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (UAB) in 2014. A total of 81 municipalities, 30 of which are metropolitan, have been evaluated in terms of traffic management, passenger information, accessibility and mobile applications. When the results are examined, it is seen that the majority of municipalities have sufficient infrastructure and provide services in terms of passenger information and electronic payment systems. On the other hand, although some municipalities have effective applications in terms of accessibility and mobile applications, they are generally open to development.
