Abstract
This report begins a detailed investigation into the challenges and possibilities of combining
security and sustainability in Smart transportation systems, with a particular focus on
Manchester. The research seeks to comprehend the complex task of using smart technologies
in transportation, taking into account environmental care, technological progress, and city
growth. The methods used include an extensive review of existing literature, visits to relevant
sites, interviews with experts, and comparisons with London and Oslo's transportation
systems. The main findings expose the complex nature of security problems, the obstacles to
sustainability, and the room for innovation in smart transportation. The report provides
specific insights into Manchester's vision for Smart Transport, the views of its residents, and
observations from real-world situations. It also proposes strategies and recommendations
inspired by successful examples and adapted to fit Manchester's individual needs. The
conclusions emphasise the complex relationship between technology, security, sustainability,
and the well-being of the community, outlining a plan for other cities aiming to develop
intelligent, strong, and compassionate transportation systems. The report also acknowledges
its limitations and suggests areas for further study, underlining the continuous development of
this field. As a scholarly work, the report adds valuable insights to the discussion on Smart
transportation, offering practical guidance for those involved in policymaking, city planning,
transportation management, and academic research.
