This document discusses improving transport demand management in cities. It notes that cities need efficient transportation of people and goods, reliable energy supply, low emissions and waste, and high quality of life. However, requirements are changing from isolated solutions to interconnected infrastructure systems. The document also quantifies the impacts of congestion in Mexico City, such as 5 million hours of lost productivity annually, and discusses using congestion charging effectively requires good public transport alternatives. It provides an example of a dynamic congestion charging system in Tel Aviv that guarantees speeds on the fast lane.

Transforming Cities Through Biking

WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cities

The document summarizes a presentation by Davis Wang, co-founder and CEO of Mobike, about transforming cities through biking. It discusses how China used to be the "Kingdom of bicycles" but cars increased, causing congestion and pollution. Mobike provides station-less bike sharing that allows bikes to be unlocked through a smart lock and mobile app. Within six months of launching, Mobike grew to serve over 10 million users across 12 cities and 151 nationalities, using big data to help transform cities.

SMART International Symposium for Next Generation Infrastructure: Estimating ...

SMART Infrastructure Facility

A presentation conducted by Dr David Cosgrove, Bureau of Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Economics (BITRE). Presented on Wednesday the 2nd of October 2013. The Australian Low Carbon Transport Forum (initiated by ARRB, BITRE and CSIRO) was organised to gather knowledge on options for transport emission abatement, with participation of government, industry, academic and other research organisations; aiming to identify options capable of significantly improving transport sector efficiency, estimate possible greenhouse emission reductions for each option, and examine any challenges to achieving their full potential. This interdisciplinary study analysed a wide range of prospects, covering vehicle and fuel technologies, infrastructure improvements and land-use planning, travel demand management, mode shifts and other behavioural change. A novel aggregation process was developed, to estimate the maximal benefits, by 2050, from a full package of measures acting together demonstrating that large reductions in expected emissions should be technically feasible, even with increasing population, without sacrificing access to transport services.

Stakeholder engagement is also an important part of using the evidence to discuss the most important issues.

Trolleybus Past or Future?

Eric Trel

This document discusses the past, present, and future of trolleybus systems around the world. It notes that trolleybuses still operate in 370 cities across 47 countries, transporting over 40,000 passengers daily. While sometimes seen as outdated, the document argues that trolleybuses can be modernized and integrated with battery technologies. It highlights cities that have successfully maintained their trolleybus networks and considers the environmental and economic factors involved in choices between upgrading trolleybus infrastructure versus transitioning to diesel or electric buses.

This document discusses challenges with last-mile logistics in cities and strategies for making operations more sustainable. Key points: - Last-mile logistics accounts for a large portion of emissions and congestion in cities. Amsterdam data shows 20% of vehicles are for deliveries, but 5% of trucks handle 65% of shipments. - The goal is to electrify urban logistics by 2025 through smarter planning and operations. This means utilizing smart vehicles, dynamic routing, optimized charging, and purchasing renewable energy. - Strategies include consolidation hubs, utilizing waterways for transport, electric vehicles, automation, and focus on sectors like construction. Open data, privileges for green vehicles, and collaborative planning

Implementing TOD [To Scale] [For All]

WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cities

The document discusses implementing transit-oriented development (TOD) on a large scale and for all populations. It presents examples of TOD from cities around the world like Medellin, Sao Paulo, Seoul, Mumbai, Cali, Ahmedabad, and Cape Town. The presentation emphasizes strategies for shifting away from car dependency through principles like increasing density near transit, mixing land uses, compact development, and connecting places by transit, walking and cycling. It also notes the risk of displacement when implementing TOD and the need for standards, evaluation, and political will to guide successful projects.

Intelligent mobility solutions - What's in it for me? (INFO GRAPHIC)

Alec Walker-Love

Stressful traffic and air pollution caused by transport are urgent issues in urban areas, costing the European economy over €100 billion per year and resulting in 400,000 premature deaths per year. IRIS Smart Cities advocates for a well-connected mix of mobility solutions and services like electric vehicles charged by solar power and digital services that make transportation choices easy and reliable. New mobility-as-a-service solutions can provide more sustainable door-to-door transportation options and reduce the expensive burden of car ownership for many city dwellers.

Future city logistics

Walther Ploos van Amstel

This document summarizes lessons learned from green city logistics projects in the Netherlands. It discusses issues with current city logistics like congestion and emissions. Amsterdam has an ambition for fully electrified urban logistics by 2025. This will require electrifying existing truck fleets and providing charging infrastructure. Transitioning to zero-emissions will be challenging for companies and require smart vehicles, drivers, planning, and purchasing of energy services. The document also discusses trends like increased use of hubs, waterways, and robots. Open data sharing and social innovation are seen as opportunities to improve road safety and coordinate planning between stakeholders in city logistics.

Impact of Urbanization on Logistics

Swati Singh

This document analyzes the trend of urbanization and the need for city distribution centers. It notes that urbanization is increasing globally, with more people living in cities. This trend will impact logistics and supply chain management by increasing traffic congestion. To address these issues, city distribution centers close to consumers' markets are needed, which can consolidate goods and enable more efficient transportation while reducing environmental impacts. Examples from DHL and other companies demonstrate how distribution centers have improved delivery efficiency and truck utilization. The roles of both the private sector and local authorities in managing city distribution are also discussed.

The document discusses the relationship between universities and the city of Manchester. It notes that Manchester is projected to add 110,000 jobs over the next decade, especially in science, digital, and culture industries, helped by its status as the largest university campus in Europe. Devolution agreements have given Manchester greater powers over transport, planning, skills, and health, with the goal of making it a center of the Northern Powerhouse through connectivity, science, culture and governance. An interim mayor will be elected in June to begin implementing these powers as Manchester moves toward directly electing a mayor by 2017.
