The ever-increasing rate of urbanization and population growth in cities requires cities to provide quality transport services, create new transport infrastructure, quality logistics and maintain the overall standard of living in the city. As the population grows, so does the demand for transport and logistics, as does transport itself, including its negative effects. The negative effects of traffic in the city are mainly traffic congestion, air quality pollution by exhaust gases or vibrations and noise. Addressing the increase in traffic and logistics, especially in the city centre, can be very challenging due to lack of space. The problems that arise due to the growing population density of cities can be solved by a relatively new idea of smart city. Smart city represents the solution of these problems using modern computer technologies and acquired data. The aim of the article is an insight into the smart city approach in logistics and transport in the Czech Republic. The article uses resources from publicly accessible databases, such as Scopus database, Web of Science database and other sources of information in the context of smart city approach in transport and logistics.
