  1. Case Study Germany:From Transport Management to Mobility Management CEDR PG Capacity and Service to Users Dr. Fritz Bolte Bundesanstalt fuer Strassenwesen (bast) / (Federal Highway Research Institute) Berne, July 6th, 2006

  2. From Transport Management (TM)to Mobility Management (MM) • Transport Policy Goals • Conventional/traditional TM Tools • What Effects? Some results • New Challenges • Other Modes, New Shareholders • New Strategies, new Tools • Basis for new Strategies • “Visions”, Basis for Co-operation

  3. Transport Policies Objectives • Road & Traffic Safety • Transport Economy • Environmental protection • Adequate use of Road network • Balanced Cost allocation to Road users • Accessibility of Cities & regions • ......

  4. Traditional Tools of Road Authorities • completion and widening of roads and networks • regulation of network use • dynamic traffic management • variable direction signs systems • variable message signs • temporary use of hard shoulders, ramp metering • dynamic lane allocation and • traffic information

  5. Enlarging Road network Traffic loads grows faster than road network

  6. Regulation of Network Use Example: Prohibitions for Lorries during Weekends

  7. Dynamic Traffic management on German Motorways Variable Direction Signs Stretch Control Intersection Control Temporary Use of Emergency Lanes Ramp Metering

  8. Limited roadside implementations of dynamic regulations • (only) traffic and accident hot spots equipped • limited information contents (HMI)

  9. Stretch Control, Measures • Lane Allocation/Blockage • Different Regulations for individual Lanes • Overtaking Regulations • Warnings • Safeguarding Roadwork & other Hazards • Flexible Speed Regulations

  10. Text Information Signs?

  11. New Design of Info Panels

  12. Solution • Information Channel „from loop to Radio“ • Coded Locations • Coded Events • International Standards • Permanent traffic Message Transmission

  13. Structural Scheme of RDS-TMC Services

  14. Synergy ... ... and In-Vehicle Information ... of Roadside Regulations ...

  15. System Architecture

  16. Road Pricing as Tool • Route Choice • Demand Management • Travel Times • Modal Choice • Migration to less polluting Vehicles

  17. What Effects? Some results

  18. Site Experience: Motorway BAB A5 Bad Homburg-Frankfurt (Hessia) Accident Rates Accident Cost Rates Reduction Reduction Reduction Reduction Reduction [U / Mio Fzkm] of 1 % of 3 % of 27 % of 29 % of 23 % 0,50 [DM/Tsd Fzkm] 60 55,01 0,40 54,50 50 0,41 47,89 40 0,34 0,33 0,30 0,30 37,08 30 Unfallrate 0,20 0,21 Unfallkostenrate 20 0,15 0,10 10 0,00 0 before after before after before after before after before after Accidents with Accidents with Accidents with Equipped Motorway Uneqiupped Motorway minor (for comparison heavy Injuries gemäß damages damages Ref.: Hess. Landesamt für Straßen- und Verkehrswesen Hessisches Landesamt für Straßen- und Verkehrswesen

  19. Mass Accidents & Environment Priorities • Rain • Snow, Ice • Rain, Hail, Snow Storm • Blinding Sun • Fog Ref.: Leibnitz,Ch,; Pöppel-Decker, M.: Massen- und Serienunfälle auf BAB 1997 und 1998;BASt-interner Bericht

  20. Recent horizontal research project on ITS impacts on Traffic safety (Ref.: Siegener 2000)

  21. Recent horizontal research project on ITS impacts on Traffic safety Results: • Reduction of accidents and especially of mass accidents – those are accidents with at least six vehicles involved – is the main objective and impact of traffic control systems. • 25 % reduction of all accidents in the area of stretch control systems • 54 % reduction of mass accidents • Reductions are caused by better speed and gap behaviour of drivers and a higher attentiveness • Where accident rates are already low traffic control systems have little additional safety effects Ref.: SIEGENER: “Accident experience in the area of traffic control systems under special consideration of traffic loads”, commissioned by BMVBW/BASt, Karlsruhe 2000

  22. Some remaining „Un-Safety“ Reasons • Systems not area-wide installed • Sub-optimal Traffic & Environmental Monitoring (Coverage, time delays, undetected problems) • Signs activated after occurrence of problems • Human misbehaviour (insufficient rule compliance, wrong decisions) • Technical vehicle problems • Time delayed rescue actions

  23. New Challenges • Increasing Traffic Loads on Roads • Increasing Environmental Sensitivity of Citizens and Politicians • Increasing distributed production • Transport costs as productivity Factor • Global Competition

  24. Traffic Development (ADT)

  25. Further Shareholders, new Technologies • Police: enforcement • Public Transport Operators • Public and Private Service Providers • New Vehicle and Electronic Technologies (IVS, ITS, C2C, C2I) • Communication Industry • Traffic Participants and their Associations

  26. Intelligent Vehicle Systems (IVS) • navigation systems • automatic control of vehicle aggregates • systems supporting parking manoeuvres etc. • Driver monitoring • longitudinal or lateral vehicle cruising control, collision warning systems, stop-and-go support (ADAS) • environmental warning systems • pre-crash systems (belt conditioner, airbag activation) • rescue alerting systems

  27. New Strategies, new Tools • Pre and on Trip Information • Principle: User has to decide and has final responsibility • Demand Management: Intermodal Information, Road Pricing, Parking management, Congestion Charging (UK,S) • Co-ordinated Actions by RA, Police, PT Operators (Access to operational Data networks) • Trans-Network Operation (all network categories) • Influencind Route selection by RDS-TMC

  28. Basis for new Strategies • Agreements on co-operation between responsible Actors • Agreements on Strategies • Provision of day-to-day co-operation • Joint data basis or access to data • Expoitation of new data sources (FCD, xFCD, FPD, Road User reports etc.) • Sophisticated traffic monitoring techniques on the basis of fused current and historic data • ...

  29. Common Task Automobile Industry Broadcasters Mobility Management Road Auth. Police Commercial Info- Services Telematic- Industry End User

  30. Basis for Co-operation and Expoitation of new promising Management Strategies and (ITS) Tools • „Joint Vision of Traffic 2010“ • Business Cases for all actors concerning their core / kernel Businesses • „win-win Situation“ • .... • Lot of work need be done:Let´s do it!
