The document discusses planning and development viability in the London Borough of Islington, which faces challenges of high development needs and limited space. It summarizes criticisms of viability assessments in the NPPF that argue sustainability should take priority over reducing developer costs. Three years later, a select committee still found viability loopholes were leading to inappropriate development. The document outlines experiences with viability assessments, including challenges with resources, expertise, methodology, transparency and outcomes. It proposes responses like adopting policies and guidance, managing transparent processes with joint working and review mechanisms to incentivize community acceptance of development plans.
Planning can shape markets in several ways:
1. Through plans, strategies and visions that articulate how places should change over time and encourage private sector actors to help implement and invest in that vision.
2. By considering the implications of land allocations and ensuring sufficient employment space is available to accommodate business expansion.
3. By reforming property rights to encourage developer behavior that meets policy objectives and development opportunities.
This document discusses EBRD's experience financing urban transport projects over the past 15+ years. Some key points:
- EBRD has invested €5 billion in over 300 municipal and urban transport projects since 1994.
- Projects are diversified across sectors and regions within EBRD countries.
- A typical challenge is poorly managed municipal transport companies with obsolete fleets and loss-making operations.
- EBRD's approach is to promote decentralization and use of public service contracts between municipalities and operators to define service standards and payment formulas tied to performance.
- Public service contracts aim to commercialize operations, incentivize efficiency, and provide long-term stable revenues for operators to rein
This document summarizes a research paper on transit-oriented development (TOD). It begins by defining TOD as compact, mixed-use development within 500-800 meters of transit stations to enable non-motorized transport. It then reviews literature on integrating transportation and land use, and discusses TOD's emergence in the US and Europe. Challenges to implementing TOD include transit design/location, community concerns, zoning not being transit-friendly, and higher development costs/risks. Strategies discussed to incorporate affordable housing in TODs include inclusionary zoning with density bonuses, and establishing a special purpose vehicle to coordinate agencies and facilitate public-private partnerships. The conclusion reiterates arguments for TOD as an alternative

Ppp case study in nigeria second niger bridge (world bank ppp mooc final pr...toju_philip
Over the years, infrastructure projects in Nigeria have been financed majorly by the Federal Government, with attendant responsibilities for operation and maintenance. In recent times however, competing priorities coupled with steady population growth has strained the amount of capital allocation by the Government available for infrastructure development. In order to meet its infrastructure needs and to catch up with developing countries in other parts of the world, this presentation identifies and proposes Public-Private Partnership (PPP) as an appropriate platform for funding infrastructure projects which would ordinarily have been funded through federal allocation using the proposed Second River Niger as a case study.
Implications of moving towards public transport based citiesTristan Wiggill
1. Public transport in South Africa costs around R30 billion annually, with most funding going to commuter rail and bus services that support spatially inequitable development patterns.
2. While policies aim to use public transport funding to address inequities, there are concerns that priorities still entrench low-density, inefficient spatial forms. Future options include accepting decline, optimizing low densities, or investing in higher densities and values.
3. Investing to enable higher urban densities could maximize both equity and efficiency through "urban economic efficiency" gains. Valuing these benefits could justify shifting priorities towards rail infrastructure to support integrated, high productivity cities. Building consensus around such a future requires evaluating options and collectively deciding on priorities

The document provides several examples of successful PPP projects in different countries and sectors.
This document provides a comparison of passenger transfer times at major international interchange stations. It finds that WMATA Gallery Place station in Washington D.C. is most similar to the planned Eglinton West and Eglinton-Yonge stations, with transfer times of about two minutes. London Woolwich Arsenal station, with four platforms across two lines, is most similar to Kennedy station but is still quite different. Transfer times range from under 10 seconds at some Singapore stations to over two minutes at larger, more complex stations.
This document provides a summary of a student project that aims to optimize land use along a proposed metro corridor in Zone N of Delhi through a transit-oriented development approach. The objectives are to examine the impact of the metro lines on zoning plans, prioritize land uses within metro station influence zones, and understand if higher floor area ratios can support the envisioned land uses. The methodology includes literature reviews, case studies, land use modeling, and stakeholder consultations. Key aspects analyzed are sustainable vs. unsustainable development near metro stations, land use transportation modeling, proposed development scenarios, and indicators to measure success. The project findings can help redefine sustainability and liveability through optimized compact mixed-use development around metro stations.

Delhi metro presentation(SCHOOL/COLLEGE)Aashna Sharma
The document summarizes the Delhi Metro rail system in India. It consists of 6 lines totaling 140 stations that span Delhi, Gurgaon, and Noida. Key points include that the lines are both underground and elevated, carry millions of daily passengers, and are more energy efficient than road-based transportation. Interchanges exist between metro lines and with Indian railway stations. The metro has faced some accidents during construction but has significantly improved transportation in the Delhi region.
This document discusses several key aspects of metro rail station planning and design, including:
1. Types of metro stations such as underground, on-grade, and elevated, as well as center and side platforms.
2. Design criteria for metro stations including passenger capacity, accessibility, construction feasibility, and life safety measures.
3. Coordination challenges between different disciplines during design and construction. International standards like NFPA 130 provide guidelines for fire protection and evacuation.
4. Interchange stations require special wayfinding signage due to their complex layouts with transfers between lines.

The document describes the development of a performance-based planning framework for the Chattanooga 2040 Regional Transportation Plan. Stakeholders advocated for both local, community investments and larger regional investments. Rather than prioritize one over the other, the framework balanced consideration of both community and regional needs. Goals and objectives were organized by community, community-to-region, and region-to-region scales. Performance measures were weighted differently for each scale. This allowed fairer evaluation and ranking of projects across modes and scales, leading to a balanced investment package addressing multiple priorities.
The document discusses methods for analyzing the costs and revenue generation of infrastructure projects such as shopping malls. It identifies key factors that determine initial project costs, including the project specification, location, procurement method, site characteristics, whether it is new construction or improvements, and tax liabilities. Revenue is generated through leasing land and facilities to businesses through lease agreements that can last 30 years or more. The main sources of funding discussed are land-based financing methods like leasing or selling public land, land pooling, land development fees, property taxes, and capital gains taxes.
The document summarizes key concepts regarding viability assessments for planning purposes. It discusses what viability means for development, how residual valuation models work, and factors like developer profit, land value, and policy requirements that affect viability. It provides examples of viability evidence required for different stages of planning and highlights guidance in the NPPF regarding ensuring plans are deliverable and do not threaten viability.
This document discusses opportunities to improve major transportation projects in the Bay Area through two initiatives:
1. Transit 2050+, a connected network plan that would establish a long-term vision and priorities for regional transit to guide project selection.
2. The Major Project Advancement Policy (MAP) used by MTC to sequence funding for large projects. The MAP could be strengthened over time through progressive stage gates to better manage risks and ensure policy alignment as projects develop.
Regional planning efforts should focus first on developing a service-based vision through Transit 2050+ before prioritizing individual projects to deliver that vision. Close coordination is needed between Transit 2050+ and the MAP to advance the right projects. Advocacy

The document discusses elements that should be included in a local digital strategy to address gaps in broadband and fiber connectivity. It outlines key topics a strategy should cover like mapping current coverage, stimulating demand, coordinating planning and permitting processes, reusing infrastructure assets, and setting goals for near-universal fiber coverage. Success is defined as securing a future-proof fiber network for 50 years that stimulates competition and supports economic growth through better connectivity. The document promotes a multi-disciplinary team approach to strategy development and notes the tools and experience the firm can provide.
This document outlines the strategy and approach for developing smart cities in India. It discusses developing smart cities through retrofitting existing areas of at least 500 acres, redeveloping existing urban sprawl of at least 50 acres, and developing new greenfield townships of at least 250 acres. Selection of cities for funding will be through a "City Challenge" competition. An integrated smart city development plan will be submitted first for initial funding, followed by more detailed project reports. Implementation will involve special purpose vehicles with participation from central, state and local governments as well as private developers. National and regional project management units will oversee the process.
The document discusses strategies for improving urban infrastructure and amenities in Indian cities. It notes that Indian cities currently lack basic services and face issues like unemployment, poor public transportation, and high levels of slum populations. To address these issues, it recommends increasing investment in public transit and affordable housing. It also emphasizes the need for improved governance, funding models, master planning, water and energy credit systems, affordable housing initiatives, and sector-specific urban development. Overall, the document calls for large-scale investments and reforms across multiple areas to develop world-class cities and accommodate rapid urbanization in India.
This document discusses public-private partnerships (PPPs) and their potential application in Ghana to help fund infrastructure projects.

India's NDCs include reducing emissions intensity by 33-35% from 2005 levels by 2030, achieving 40% electricity from non-fossil fuel sources, and creating a carbon sink of 2.5-3 billion tons through additional forestry and tree cover. The Climate Change Department of Gujarat coordinates policy and encourages green technology to build a sustainable, climate-resilient future for the state.
The document discusses barriers to adopting electric bus fleets globally and innovations that can help overcome these barriers. It notes that while electric buses have higher upfront costs, they are already cost competitive over the lifetime when maintenance is considered. Many cities around the world have started implementing electric buses through different models involving new stakeholders, procurement changes, technological advances, and public sector support. Overall the document argues that barriers exist but innovations are emerging that can help accelerate the transition to electric buses globally.
The document discusses key barriers to electric vehicle deployment in India and programs that Climate Policy Initiative (CPI) is undertaking to address these barriers. The major barriers include high upfront costs of electric vehicles compared to diesel, pricing risks due to evolving battery technologies, lack of long term financing for batteries, lack of credit for smaller electric vehicles, need for charging infrastructure development, and lack of institutional capacity. CPI's programs seek to address these through initiatives like battery service agreements, long term debt facilities for batteries, financing for auto rickshaws, pay-as-you-save models, and project preparation facilities to connect cities and investors.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.
Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

q Transit oriented development holds the poten?al to achieve
op?mal land use, and anain economic, social, and environmental
goals.
q Major barriers—current planning prac?ce does not enable TOD:
1. Not market responsive: The government-‐led planning process fail to
match the supply with the market demand, resul?ng in oversupplies of
housing and/or shortages of ameni?es.
2. Lack integrated urban and transit plans: rail transit plan is not
coordinated with urban master/regulatory plans, leading to lack of
developable lands around transit sta?ons.
3. Inflexible regulatory zoning: The regulatory plan is too rigid to allow for
up-‐zoning or changes of land uses in proximity to transit sta?ons.
