Enabling inclusive urban transport planning through civic artificial intelligence

We recommend enabling inclusive urban transport planning through civic artificial intelligence. To achieve this policy recommendation, we propose the following: (1) Encourage and provide resources for experimentation with new technologies that enable local community participation in urban transport planning; (2) Recognize the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to assist in complex urban transport planning decisions; (3) Acknowledge that AI is embedded in society, instead of treating it as a neutral technology; and (4) Foster community engagement in transport planning and evaluation, via a Civic AI framework that directly integrates preferences and feedback into planning.
