Penang, the thriving arts and culture hub of Malaysia, is aspiring to become a vibrant smart state by 2030. With the Penang Smart Mobility Micro-Simulation Model Development project of the ASEAN Australia Smart Cities Trust Fund (AASCTF), the City Council of Penang Island will be able to assess the potential impacts of developer plans and transport interventions so as to protect Penang's historic center, ensure inclusive mobility, and cultivate a strong sense of place.

This flyer presents an overview of the AASCTF project, including how the simulation model was developed in two stages and the simulation study workflow. For more detailed information on the project, see the 'Read Also' sidebar on the right side of this page.

AASCTF is financed by the Australian Government through the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, managed by the Asian Development Bank, and implemented by Ramboll.
