This document discusses electric vehicles and clean energy initiatives in Washington D.C. It provides statistics on electric public buses and taxis in the city. It also outlines goals in the Clean Energy DC plan, including having 50% of buses and private fleets be zero-emissions by 2030. The document discusses developing a Transportation Electrification Roadmap to provide policies and timelines to meet goals like 25% of vehicle registrations being electric by 2030. It provides updates on the roadmap process, like releasing a request for applications and developing stakeholder engagement.

The document summarizes the winners of the 2014 British Parking Awards. It lists the winners in various categories like Best New Car Park, Best Surface Car Park, Exceptional Customer Service, Parking Technology, Young Parking Professional of the Year, and Parking Person of the Year.

The document discusses plans to develop Airport West and Essendon Fields into a major jobs hub, with an expected growth of 16,000 new jobs. Community leaders believe the area is well-positioned to become a leading technology precinct due to its mix of industry and residential areas. However, improvements to public transportation such as a new train station are needed to support the large workforce as congestion becomes a problem. A draft report outlines opportunities to guide the area's development while adapting to economic growth.

Dublin Port Masterplan

Dublin Port is preparing a Masterplan from 2011 to 2040 through a public consultation process running from April to November 2011. The Masterplan aims to create a framework for future projects, facilitate planning applications, and reintegrate the Port with the city. Volumes are projected to grow from the current 28.9 million gross tonnes to 60 million gross tonnes by 2040. Dublin Port will need to build additional capacity in advance of demand to handle the projected volumes but not too far in advance. The priorities for Dublin Port are to provide infrastructure for private sector customers, develop commercial relationships to maintain competitive forces, generate appropriate returns on investment, manage costs, and distribute surplus cash through dividends.

This document discusses smart infrastructure in waterfront cities, using the city of Gdynia, Poland as a case study. It first provides theoretical background on waterfront cities and infrastructure, and the benefits of smart infrastructure. It then discusses general conditions in the EU, Poland, and the Tricity region. The case study section examines Gdynia's past and ongoing smart initiatives focused on infrastructure. Proposals are made for local, city, and regional adaptation and adoption for the EU, addressing infrastructure in water, shoreline, and upland areas.

This document discusses the success of Qualifications Based Selection (QBS) procurement in Ontario. It summarizes: 1) Metrolinx, Ontario's regional transit agency, issued requests for proposals for two engineering projects using QBS which evaluates proposals based on qualifications rather than price alone. 2) This was the result of discussions between Metrolinx and Consulting Engineers of Ontario who advocated for QBS and provided research on its benefits from Calgary's experience. 3) The success of these pilot projects and Metrolinx's commitment to evidence-based decision making means that more engineering projects in Ontario will likely use QBS in the future.

Zeeland Public Schools

The Zeeland Public Schools is seeking a $20.275 million bond proposal on May 4th to fund growth initiatives including constructing the first phase of a new elementary school, upgrading technology district-wide, improving security, and renovating facilities. The funds would not require an increase in taxes. Public input was gathered to determine the district's needs, which were originally estimated at $27 million but have been reduced by $7 million. Additional details on funding breakdowns and public forums are provided.

This document discusses issues with transport funding, project selection, and project delivery in Australia. It argues that transport funding levels have increased but are still below long-term averages. Project selection is too influenced by politics and ideology, prioritizing roads over rail and rural over urban. Many projects experience delays and cost overruns due to changing political priorities between governments. Project delivery is inefficient, with most recent toll road PPPs going bankrupt and megaprojects routinely exceeding costs. The document calls for independent decision making on infrastructure, more transparency, and national policies to bring more consistency and effectiveness to transport planning.

Stephen O'Malley, Future of Town Centres

Place North West

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 summarizes Neil du Preez's proposal for Mellowcabs, an electric three-wheeled vehicle designed for urban passenger and cargo transport. It notes that 80% of urban trips are short and emissions from urban transport are high. Mellowcabs aims to provide a low-cost, efficient, and emissions-free solution. Prototypes have been developed and road tested. Partnerships have been secured with Uber and logistics companies for pilots in multiple countries. The proposal outlines the market opportunity and competitive advantages of Mellowcabs.

Bus Karo: Electric Bus Trial in DTC

WRI India

Electric Bus Trial in DTC The Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) conducted an electric bus trial from March to June 2016. An electric bus was provided by BYD Auto Industry of China through their local partner. The key benefits of the electric bus included zero emissions, lower operating costs of Rs. 12.06/km compared to diesel, and a driving range of over 250km per charge. Over the trial period the electric bus covered nearly 13,000km with an expenditure of Rs. 17.10 per km. The electric bus requires much lower maintenance than diesel buses and has safety benefits as its batteries are fire-safe. The trial received positive media coverage highlighting the benefits of electric buses.

Islington council presentation on Wharfdale Road bridge

william perrin

The document discusses a proposed pedestrian and cycle bridge called the Wharfdale Road Bridge that would connect King's Cross Station to an area of Islington. It presents the results of a business case analysis for the bridge which found a benefit-cost ratio of 0.52:1, below the thresholds for funding. Alternative projects in the area have much higher benefit-cost ratios. The council supports the bridge but also wants to investigate making York Way two-way to improve pedestrian safety and access.

Delivering Dublin's Future Cycle Network

Kevin Baker

The document discusses building a cycle network in Dublin. It notes that only 10% of planned cycle routes have been completed after 7 years of work. At this pace, it would take 280 years to finish, but completing routes 25 times faster in 25 years is possible. Several challenges delay projects, including lengthy approval processes, stakeholder objections, and a lack of priority and funding. The document argues for enabling cycling through building safe, connected infrastructure to create a positive feedback loop of more riders and faster network delivery.
