Abstract The Smart Cities improve the quality of life of its citizens and creates new opportunities for development of a country. The Smart city technologies signifies the top priority for most of the communities within a country. Many industries have Smart cities under their purview of understanding and are engaged in research for the infrastructure needed for setting up smart cities since they support configurations to manage traffic control, transportation management, building management, energy monitoring, pollution monitoring, location and route monitoring, etc. In this paper we discuss a strategy to integrate the public transportation facility provided by Riyadh metro, an element of Smart City into the Riyadh Smart City (RSC) application. The Riyadh metro tracking will be based on location based services where the passenger is delivered the services in which they may be interested in, throughout their journey. This web application will provide the passengers with the information about the active areas within their point of access so that they can make selection with respect to their requirement even though they are travelling. In the future this application could be integrated with the RSC application in the cloud. The challenges and implications faced throughout the integration process would be studied further.

1 Introduction The fast progress in the field of communication and technology has given rise to the incredible Smart City Applications. These technologies support the upcoming research areas and enhanced livability, workability, and sustainability of different cities. These are commonly supporting infrastructures to manage traffic control, transportation management, building management, energy monitoring, pollution monitoring, location and route monitoring, etc. In this paper we discuss a strategy to integrate the public transportation by Riyadh metro, an element of Smart City into the Riyadh Smart City application (RSC) [1]. In our future work we will integrate the new RSC application to the cloud and discuss the challenges and implications faced throughout the integration. Metro Railways are an excellent means of public transportation that not only offers safe travelling services to public within a city but they can provide use of mobile devices, internet and many types of LDS (location-dependent-services) [2]. LDS services commonly are represented by geographic coordinates. The longitude, latitude are geographic coordinated that support the navigation and transportation services. Many projects have been launched to dev
