1. Measure 26 Strategic Traffic Management 13.6.2012 Katerina Oktabcova Usti nad Labem Municipality

2. Background and Objectives • Intensive traffic on local roads and development of motor transport requires application of regulatory measures • necessary to address issues of sustainable development and seek complex transport solutions for the city • Objectives: • regulation and segregation of motor transport in order to avoid safety risks for the population • Improve traffic flow and safety level • reduce the environmental impact of traffic, such as emission of harmful gases, noise and vibrations • Introduce priority for public transport • support walking and cycling modes • Contribute to better quality and cleaner life in the city • Measure target: • develop a traffic management strategy and implement measures to restrict traffic in the city centre

3. Measure overview • Tasks • 11.3.4 Strategic Traffic Management • Finished in M34 • RTD task • Analysis of current state of traffic management, application of intelligent transport systems and transfer of traffic data in the city • 3.8 Strategic Traffic Management • Finished in M35 • DEMO task • Feasibility study of implementing optimised traffic management scheme and ITS development to meet requirements for sustainable urban transport development

4. Task 11.3.4 Strategic traffic management analysis • Analysis of the current management scheme for individual functional areas: • Management and organization of road safety; • Traffic information and data transfer; • Parking of vehicles; • Public transport; • Freight transport; • Transport surveillance systems; • Payments system; • Management and maintenance of transport infrastructure • Identification of issues, needs and requirements

5. Task 3.8 Strategic traffic management scheme • Proposal of the architecture of the ITS systemand suitable traffic management scheme forÚstí nad Labem: • Traffic management via variable traffic marks and traffic light signals • Traffic management in emergencies • Information and data transfer • Parking navigation • Preference for public transport and data provision • Management of goods transport and freight vehicles • Traffic surveillance systems • System of payments within the transport system • Maintenance of transport infrastructure

6. 3.8 Strategic traffic management • Proposal for intelligent telematic systems for the city: • Development of the traffic light system: • Detectors enabling priority of way for PT • Interacting with the current traffic flow • Integrate foreseen traffic situations (for example higher intensity before a football match, etc.) • Improve the information system: • Electronic notice boards • Proposal for specific solutions for individual localities in the city • Proposalof a central traffic control station with integrated telematics and traffic regulations

7. Proposal for the architecture of the management system and organisation of traffic in Ústí nad Labem

8. Results • New traffic management scheme would enable integration of all the existing subsystems and continuous real-time sharing of information • The proposal defines an integrated traffic management system gathering, processing, storing and sharing information among the relevant bodies in the city with centralized management. • Desirable solution for administrators of roads, units of the IRS and road users (drivers, pedestrians, cyclists and PT passengers) • Especially required during emergency situations – in the city usually due to unfavorable weather conditions (floods, ice and snow) • Strategic traffic management would also provide improved conditions for development of non-motorised transport (pedestrians and cyclists) and for PT services.

9. Budget and costs • Subcontract: • Develop the detailed technical solutions and methodology for strategic traffic management in the city (experts in remote control station engaged) • Budget 60 000€ • Actual costs 61 038€

10. Evaluation • Processing final evaluation data • Indicators • Traffic flow peak/off-peak • transport model • Average vehicle speed peak/off-peak • transport model • Average vehicle time peak/off-peak • transport model • Total fuel consumption • transport model • average consumption according to vehicle types • Emissions • CO, Nox: transport model • CO2, Particulate: impossible to obtain by transport model
