Gothenburg implemented a city delivery concept called "Stadsleveransen" to address congestion problems from freight deliveries in the city center. Stadsleveransen includes a consolidation center that handles small shipments and performs last mile deliveries using electric vehicles and cargo bikes. Regulations like time windows and vehicle size limits, coupled with incentives like improved infrastructure, have reduced the number of trucks and negative impacts of deliveries in the city area. Stadsleveransen engages stakeholders through a local freight network to continuously improve the urban freight system.

It outlines RMS' assets and notes constraints like limited road space. Plans include major road projects, improving public transit like trains and buses, using technology to manage traffic, and non-build solutions to ease congestion on key corridors and support Sydney's development into a sustainable, globally connected city.
This document discusses the characteristics and benefits of walkable cities. It defines a walkable city as one where residents can access destinations using public transit or by walking. The key features of walkable communities include having destinations within walking or biking distance, sidewalks and crossings that make walking safe, and a mix of businesses and homes. Benefits include more active and healthier residents, transportation choices, and a safer environment for walking and biking. Specific strategies to create walkable cities include redevelopment agencies, developing a multifunctional downtown, making the downtown more pedestrian-friendly, preserving historical structures, waterfront development, office development, and improving mass transportation and alternative transit options like walking and biking.

The document discusses cycling infrastructure and promotion in the UK. It provides examples of cities and national parks receiving £94 million in funding to improve cycling routes. Articles announce the largest single cash injection for cycling and plans to make roads safer. Quotes from officials urge building safer cycling routes to benefit cyclists as well as reducing congestion and encouraging alternative transport use. The document suggests this approach could work for sustainable transport overall if local projects impressed people and localism felt real through engagement with local authorities.
This document summarizes Colin Buchanan's career and influential publications "Traffic in Towns" and "Transport in Cities". It discusses how Buchanan established an analytical framework for transport planning in "Traffic in Towns" that considered land use, major road separation, environmental standards, accessibility and cost-benefit tradeoffs. While some criticized aspects of "Traffic in Towns", its overall framework and many policy recommendations remain applicable today. The document then introduces "Transport in Cities", noting how urbanization, technology, economic and environmental factors pose new questions. It outlines scenarios around these trends and concludes that while "Traffic in Towns" was remarkably insightful, "Transport in Cities" aims not for answers but an updated framework for thinking about transport
The document summarizes operational traffic modelling that was done for the Sydney CBD and South East Light Rail project. It discusses how the modelling approach aimed to forecast traffic patterns and congestion with the light rail system and other transport changes. The summary evaluates whether the modelling accurately predicted traffic volumes and hotspots by comparing forecasts to what actually occurred. While some predictions matched reality closely, others differed more. The document concludes key lessons are that models are useful planning tools but cannot replace on-ground observation, and developing accurate models is challenging given changing travel behaviors.

Stephen O’Malley argues that attracting and retaining talented people depends on urban enjoyment and lifestyle. As more people globally become wealthier, they will choose locations based on pleasure as well as productivity. Examples of cities that attract talent through public spaces and culture are given, such as Amsterdam, Barcelona, Hamburg, and Lyon in Europe. In the UK, Covent Garden and the South Bank in London also attract talent through business and culture. Improving walking and cycling infrastructure and reducing barriers could enable more local trips by sustainable transport. Currently, 45% of peak trips are less than 5km but routing and parking difficulties discourage active travel. It is argued that incremental improvements rather than radical changes are needed to build more livable places and

This document discusses transit oriented development (TOD). It explains that TOD brings compact, mixed-use development within walking distance of high capacity transit like rail or bus rapid transit. This allows people to access jobs, services, and opportunities with short commutes by walking, biking or public transit rather than personal vehicles. TOD is described as creating more sustainable, livable communities that promote public health and reduce environmental impacts. The document provides examples of Wendel's work on TOD projects and outlines their approach to responsible design focused on connectivity, density, mixed uses and other principles.

Transportation and energy in the sustainable cityFahmy At
The document discusses the challenges of increasing urban transportation needs and calls for more efficient solutions. As urban populations and transportation energy consumption doubles by 2050, there is a need for affordable, high-capacity systems. Improving transportation efficiency is critical to mitigate negative climate, air and noise pollution, congestion impacts. Planning policies should reduce private car dependency and design urban forms needing less mobility. Individual lifestyle changes to depend less on cars are also important. Limiting car use 30 years ago could have safeguarded the environment from pollution and greenhouse gases. Cities cannot solve transportation by building more roads but need greater public transit, cycling and walking. Sustainable policies should minimize transport needs, increase low-impact modes, and reduce emissions and resource demands
