Given the increasing migration of populations from rural to metropolitan areas, it is imperative to make urban mobility more efficient in order to mitigate traffic, pollution and degradation of the quality of life. In this paper, we propose a system that attempts to influence drivers to follow a certain route by means of an incentive. The proposals are put forward based on predefined urban traffic network indicators in need of optimization, such as the carbon dioxide emissions in a specific route or another equally compatible with our model. Our hypothesis is that influencing drivers’ behaviours can lead to the optimization of such indicators. The accumulated incentives are registered in a Blockchain network in order to ensure the unchanging and reliable registration of route proposals accepted by drivers. Additionally, we describe an application developed as a proof of concept and as a basis for future work.
