This document discusses Ohio's Smart Mobility Initiative and Smart City Challenge. It envisions Ohio leading in smart mobility and city technologies, driving job growth in transportation. Key benefits are listed as safety, enhanced mobility for the elderly and disabled, support for urbanization, and environmental sustainability. Columbus, Ohio is proposed as an ideal test bed city due to its growth, multi-modal transportation infrastructure, workforce, and business environment. The proposal seeks $60 million in funding to implement initiatives around citizen, jobs, freight, tourist and green mobility with a focus on data.
