The document analyzes the effects of quality incentives in public transport contracts in Stockholm, Sweden. It finds that the quality incentives studied did not reliably improve quality outcomes for commuter trains or buses. Only 4 out of 10 incentives showed the expected effect on quality, with only 1 being statistically significant. The results were inconclusive likely because the costs of improving quality were higher than the incentives. Higher quality may not be optimal if costs are greater than what passengers are willing to pay.

Funding Recommendations for Oregon’s Public Roads Network
This document proposes funding recommendations for Oregon's public road network. It recommends increasing the annual vehicle registration fee by 50% and establishing road concessions on two major highways connecting Portland. This would generate over $1 billion initially from the concessions and increase annual registration fee revenue. The funds would be used to improve road conditions and maintenance. Analysis suggests a 50% registration fee increase would decrease new vehicle purchases by only 0.59% and not significantly impact overall recovery in vehicle ownership. The proposals aim to fund road infrastructure through user fees while stimulating the local economy.

Speed Thrills But Kills_Group 2
This document analyzes the effect of increasing the speed limit from 55 mph to 65 mph on rural roads using econometric analysis of accident data from 1981-1989. The regression model estimates that the speed limit increase was associated with a 16.3% increase in total rural accidents. The model also considers the effects of seat belt laws and unemployment rates on accidents. While the analysis provides insight, the summary acknowledges limitations such as lack of additional relevant variables and serial correlation in the model.
Social-Cost Pricing in Freight Transportation
This document summarizes a Congressional Budget Office analysis of how taxing external costs of freight transport could shift shipping from truck to rail. The analysis found that taxing external costs under four policy options could increase rail shipping costs 12-16% and truck costs 19-19%, shifting 3-4% of ton-miles from truck to rail. This could reduce truck trips by 3-3.3 million and external costs by $2-2.4 billion annually while generating $26-70 billion in tax revenues.
Measuring the Dependence of Fuel Efficiency of Automobiles on Different Factors
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to develop a multiple regression model for measuring the miles per gallon (Efficiency) by using different independent variables. How much the efficiency in terms of miles per gallon is dependent on engine displacement, horsepower, vehicle weight, model year, number of cylinders, and filters? Which is the most important variable for increasing the efficiency of automobiles? The answers of these questions are the objectives of this paper. The results indicate that model year has positive effect on efficiency of vehicle while horse power, vehicle weight, and filters have negative impact on vehicle’s efficiency. Results also specify that vehicle weight has the maximum impact on miles per gallon while horsepower has the minimum impact.

Transport and Economic Growth
This presentation summarizes the relationship between road transport and economic development at the state level in India over the last three decades. It discusses theories that transport investment can boost economic growth through increased productivity and agglomeration effects. However, the empirical evidence presented finds little clear impact of roads on jobs or GDP growth locally. Studies also found no relationship between transport accessibility and productivity. The presentation concludes that while transport infrastructure is important, impacts on economic growth are limited and poorly understood, and other types of public spending may have larger impacts.
A travel behaviour change framework for the city of Cape Town.pdf
This document proposes a theoretical framework to guide the city of Cape Town's travel demand management (TDM) strategy. It categorizes different TDM measures and analyzes their observed impacts based on international evidence. Financial charges, like road pricing, are found to reduce single-occupancy vehicle use the most, by around 15% on average. Financial incentives and regulatory measures reduce use by around 5% each, while voluntary measures reduce use by around 2%. The proposed framework explains how to package, sequence, target and implement TDM measures strategically to achieve the city's goal of reducing single-occupancy vehicle traffic into the city center by 10% over five years.
Statistical benchmarking - what it can add to CQC
This document discusses using statistical benchmarking to evaluate the efficiency of authorities that maintain highway networks. It explains that benchmarking can identify potential cost savings by determining authorities' minimum possible costs given their characteristics, quality levels, and citizen satisfaction. The document outlines models developed to estimate cost frontiers for highway maintenance, street lighting, and winter services. Authorities performing above the cost frontier are deemed inefficient, and the analysis can estimate potential savings if they adopted best practices. However, the document notes the analysis does not explain why costs gaps exist or are a maximum potential saving rather than absolute. It concludes benchmarking should be used alongside other analyses to help authorities understand how to improve.
Sustainable transport - will it ever really count?
This document discusses sustainable transportation and provides indicators to measure sustainability impacts. It summarizes a European Transport White Paper that assessed four policy options for sustainable transportation across economic, social and environmental impacts. While the White Paper improved transparency, the modeling and indicators used still had limitations and did not fully consider social or implementation factors. A high-speed rail project was also discussed, noting questions around what the project's goals are in relation to sustainable transportation strategies.

Analysis of a financial incentive to encourage safer driving practices.
This document summarizes a study that analyzed the behavioral effects of a financial incentive program designed to encourage safer driving among motorists in Sydney, Australia. The study involved monitoring 148 motorists' driving habits over 5 weeks without incentives and 5 weeks with incentives. The incentives rewarded reductions in vehicle kilometers traveled, nighttime driving, and speeding. Results found that vehicle kilometers traveled decreased 10% overall, with 3/4 of participants reducing speeding. Exit interviews suggested incentives effectively reduced speeding but were more difficult to reduce overall driving. The final analysis focused on 106 motorists and found 61% earned money by changing their driving, with average payouts of $116.
goDCgo Year 4 Annual Impact Report
The document provides an evaluation of the impacts of the goDCgo transportation program between July 2014 and June 2015. It summarizes that through various services including ride matching, employer outreach, bikeshare promotion, and a website, goDCgo helped over 33,000 people shift to alternative transportation modes. This resulted in a reduction of over 33,000 vehicle trips and 509,000 vehicle miles traveled daily. The travel changes also reduced daily emissions and saved over 18,700 gallons of fuel per day.

Understanding the GDP impact of infrastructure investment - learning from tra...Institute for Transport Studies (ITS)
This document discusses methods for quantifying the GDP impact of infrastructure investment beyond traditional cost-benefit analysis. It outlines how transport projects can boost GDP through agglomeration effects and increased productivity as they reduce transport costs and improve connectivity. It describes several models used to estimate these wider economic benefits, including land-use transport interaction (LUTI) models and computable general equilibrium (CGE) models. While GDP impact analysis is increasingly used to prioritize projects, the document notes issues around additionality assumptions and limitations of models based on monocentric cities.Carbon Accounting & Decision Making | Jan Bebbington
The document outlines three generic approaches to decision making related to carbon accounting: indicators, indicators with evaluation frameworks, and monetized models. Indicators simply list relevant factors but do not specify their relative importance. Indicators with evaluation frameworks attach weights to different aspects. Monetized models convert all factors into monetary units. Examples of indicator frameworks for transportation and stormwater projects are presented, showing the factors considered and their assigned weights. The talk discusses the relative strengths and weaknesses of the approaches and how modeling impacts differs from assessing sustainability. It concludes by inviting questions and discussion.
E shuttle (final presentation)
This document summarizes a business plan for an electric shuttle service called E-Shuttle. E-Shuttle aims to provide convenient and sustainable transportation for businesses by reducing traffic, emissions and parking needs. It plans to start service in the Greater Toronto Area using electric vans. The business plan outlines E-Shuttle's services, technology, markets, customers, competitors, marketing strategies, operations, contracts, development plan and financial projections over 10 years. The plan shows how E-Shuttle can become profitable by expanding its fleet and client base while keeping lower operating costs than alternatives through its electric vehicles.
A Model for Life-Cycle Benefit and Cost Analysis
This document describes a model called the Indiana Highway Economic Evaluation Model (IHEEM) that was developed to provide the Indiana Department of Transportation with a uniform methodology for conducting economic analyses of highway investment projects. IHEEM uses a life-cycle benefit-cost analysis approach to evaluate projects. It incorporates both deterministic and probabilistic analyses. The model calculates agency costs and user benefits over an analysis period to determine metrics like net present value and benefit-cost ratio. An example application analyzing a highway expansion project is provided to demonstrate IHEEM's capabilities.
Wednesday 29 June, W15 - driving better local bus services - David Brown
The document discusses challenges facing local bus services in England, including rising costs and falling government funding. While some local governments are reducing supported bus networks, metropolitan areas generally try to avoid major cuts by raising concessionary fares or charging for services. The Competition Commission investigation found some local bus markets prevent competition and its potential remedies include market opening measures and local authority-led franchising. Making the most of existing bus powers and better targeting limited funding will be important to address decline while new policies and technologies may help lift the sector in coming years.

By Lee Schipper, Project Scientist, Global Metropolitan Studies, University of California-Berkeley and Project Scientist, Stanford UniversityTSMO & Reliability
The document discusses transportation system management and operations (TSMO) and travel time reliability. It outlines how TSMO focuses on optimizing traffic management, traveler information, incident management, and demand management using multimodal and technology-based approaches. Travel time reliability is defined in terms of variability in travel times and key measures like buffer time. Ways to improve reliability include incorporating TSMO strategies, providing better traveler information, managing incidents and special events, and implementing roadway performance strategies. The transportation landscape is changing due to trends in demographics, the environment, technology, and other factors. Agencies should respond by prioritizing performance-based projects, integrating data and technologies, and partnering with the private sector.
Efforts Of Singapore In Controlling Traffic Congestion & Pollution
Congestion pricing is proposed as the main solution to control traffic congestion in cities. It involves surcharging drivers during peak traffic periods to reduce demand. The objectives are to make drivers aware of the costs imposed by congestion and to pay for the additional congestion they create. Critics argue it is an additional tax and can negatively impact businesses. Electronic road pricing systems in Singapore have been successful in reducing traffic by 13% and increasing average speeds by 20% during operational hours.
Impact of Vehicle Class and Tire Pressure on Pavement Performance in MEPDG
The new Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) design and analysis procedures defines
the exact traffic loading by defining the specific number of each vehicle class and the use of axle load
distribution factors instead of the equivalent single axle load (ESAL). The number of traffic inputs (parameters)
in MEPDG was found to be 17024. This research aimed to evaluate the sensitivity of the predicted flexible
pavement distress to vehicle class and tire pressure in MEPDG. To evaluate the impact of vehicle (truck) class
on pavement sections, different cases of loading were analyzed. For each case, the MEPDG Ver. 1.1 was used to
evaluate the effect of tire pressure by solving each case for a tire pressure of 120 and 140 psi. The effect of the
traffic parameters on asphalt pavement (AC) rutting, base rutting, subgrade rutting, international roughness
index (IRI), longitudinal cracking and fatigue (alligator) cracking were investigated.
It was found that vehicle class distribution (VCD) would cause clear impact (comparable to the effect of
AADTT level) only if the major traffic is of specific class (very light or very heavy). If this is not the case, the
vehicle class distribution will not be a significant factor that affects the final design because most of the trucks
had similar impact on flexible pavement distresses. The impact of tire pressure is clear on longitudinal cracking,
fatigue cracking and AC rutting, and have no significant impact on both base and subgrade rutting.
Pricing Freight Transport to Account for External Costs
Presentation by David Austin, an analyst in CBO’s Microeconomics Studies Division, at the 91st Annual Conference of the Western Economic Association International.
Although freight transport contributes significantly to the productivity of the U.S. economy, it also involves sizable costs to society. Those “external” costs include wear and tear on roads and bridges; delays caused by traffic congestion; injuries, fatalities, and property damage from accidents; and harmful effects from exhaust emissions. No one pays those costs directly—neither freight haulers, nor shippers, nor consumers. The unpriced external costs of transporting freight by truck (per ton-mile) are around eight times higher than the costs for rail; those costs net of existing taxes represent about 20 percent of the cost of truck transport and about 11 percent of the cost of rail transport. This presentation examines policy options to address those unpriced external costs.

China’s low-carbon transition of transportation towards carbon neutrality
Mr. Hongbo Duan, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences
Opening session José Viegas
The document discusses transport policy and funding challenges faced by the International Transport Forum (ITF). It notes that the ITF is an inter-governmental organization with 54 member countries that focuses on global transport policy issues and provides comparative statistics and research. It states that transport policy is difficult due to its impact on people's lives and different stakeholder interests. A mix of policy tools is needed, including supply, regulation, pricing, and information strategies. Funding transport requires balancing long-term impacts versus short-term results and considering who benefits and pays for investments. Knowledge sharing across countries is important given the complex nature of these issues.

The document discusses transport policy and funding challenges faced by the International Transport Forum (ITF). It notes that the ITF is an inter-governmental organization with 54 member countries that focuses on global transport policy issues and provides comparative statistics and research. It states that transport policy is difficult due to its impact on people's lives and different stakeholder interests. A mix of policy tools is needed, including supply, regulation, pricing, and information strategies. Funding transport requires balancing long-term impacts versus short-term results and considering who benefits and pays for investments. Knowledge sharing across countries is important given the complex nature of these issues.

The document discusses a PhD project called S-City that aims to understand how information and communication technologies (ITS) can impact mobility and safety while addressing privacy issues. It outlines how ITS has the potential to enhance mobility through information, monitoring, localization, identification, authorization, and communication technologies. However, these applications raise privacy concerns regarding lack of control over personal information, risk of social exclusion, and compromising of privacy. Examples are given of privacy issues around data retention by transportation agencies and mobile phone tracking. The document argues that privacy is important for individuals' well-being and democratic societies, and that its loss can result in harm.
Session 69 Cees de Wijs

https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
