be advanced with ICTs in a contemporary city. In fact, their
imaginary cities were greener, connected with high-speed
Internet providing smarter and more accessible services to
citizens but above all, wireless.
If they were public managers they would
focus efforts on developing a web portal aimed at improving
access to information on public transport in order to
mitigate the consequences of heavy urban traffic; promoting
of electronic payment systems for public transport and
connecting wirelessly urban territories. The discussion
ended by officially granting of certificates at a special
ceremony.
