Abstract : Bangalore, India's rapidly expanding technology hub, faces severe traffic congestion, road safety issues, and environmental concerns due to rising population and vehicle density. This research explores sustainable mobility solutions through smart transportation systems, traffic engineering strategies, and last-mile connectivity improvements. Leveraging IoT, AI, and 5G-enabled intelligent traffic management, Bangalore can enhance real-time traffic monitoring, optimize road usage, and reduce accidents. A comparative analysis with cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Singapore, and Barcelona highlights effective smart traffic management and public transport integration models. The study emphasizes the need for seamless multimodal connectivity, digital infrastructure, and policy advancements to improve urban mobility. By implementing smart mobility strategies, Bangalore can reduce congestion, lower emissions, and enhance the commuter experience, contributing to a more efficient and sustainable transport system.

Keywords : Last-Mile Connectivity, Urban Mobility, Public-Private Partnerships (PPP), Smart City Transportation, Digital Mobility.
