Currently, the development of urban slow traffic information services is lagging. Numerous issues, such as the lack of traffic information and deficient information dissemination, restrict the technical and economic development, of such systems. So it is critical and crucial to develop information services for urban pedestrian and bicycle systems. In this paper, a smartphone-based information platform is proposed to provide customized information services ubiquitously for walking and cycling commuters with various characteristics and demands. The platform can provide value-added services like smart tour by cooperating with mobile operators, or promote national information construction and development of related service industries especially for the countries and areas with big populations. Moreover, through taking advantage of portability, the platform is easy to apply to other information services offered by smartphones.
