  24. Sustainable Transport • Objective: reduce the usage of private cars • Urban Planning: • mixed land use • high density land use to reduce trip lengths • Economic incentives to use desired transport modes in variable pressure: • improvement of public transport (new or better systems) • P+R • HOV lanes • bus lanes • usage charges (parking, area, roads) • removal of road space

  25. Private Transport Initial Public Transport Potential Final Modelling Park + Ride - Principle

  26. Modelling Park + Ride - Method • Define P&R interchange sites • for each city centre zone add a virtual private transport link at the P+R site with impedance = f(PuT price, PuT travel time, ...) and connect zone to the other end of the virtual link • Determine P&R demand • perform private transport assignment and determine proportion of demand using virtual P&R links • Split P&R demand off private transport demand • add a zone to each P&R site and connect to both private and public transport • subtract P&R demand from private demand • add back private transport leg (up to P&R zone) • add public transport leg (from P&R zone) to PuT demand • Assign changed public and private transport demands separately

  27. High Occupancy Vehicles • Focus in SUTRA: car pools • Incentives for participating in a car pool: • Availability of dedicated HOV lanes • Reserved parking spaces at convenient locations • Exemption from road pricing • Typical usage similar to Park & Ride • car pool members start their trips separately, • meet at an agreed place, • share one vehicle for remaining leg

  28. HOV - Method • Approach similar to Park & Ride • Define HOV as a new transportation system • Add HOV incentives to network, e.g. additional lanes reserved to transportation system HOV and closed for car etc. • Define HOV meeting places (zone + virtual link) • Adjust demand • Determine HOV demand • Split off HOV demand from private transport demand • Add back individual legs to private transport demand • Form HOV demand from shared legs • Reassign changed demand to network

  29. Road User Charging (1) • traditional approach: route choice depends on travel time • considering toll: route choice depends on travel time and costs problem: drivers have different sensitivity to costs („value of time“)

  30. Road User Charging (2) : Value of Time impedance CritR of a route R consists of a time component tR and a cost component cR. time and cost are connected through a VT [€ / h], [$ / h], ... CritR

  31. CritR Road User Charging (3) : Methods “traditional” toll assignment TRIBUT constant VT for all users randomly distributed VT bi-criterial mono-criterial

  33. Modelling of City Structure Changes • Conventional Demand Modelling • based on structural data (residents, work places, educational facilities, shopping facilities) • based on behavioural data (homogenous groups, trip chains, OD groups) • SUTRA Demand Modelling • „common“ „hypothetical“ scenarios • dedicated demand modelling beyond the project scope • derivation of the scenario demand from the analysis case.

  34. Demand Modelling Details • Trip generation • change of the sum of all trips in the demand matrices based on population and mobility rates • Mode share • individual treatment of the demand matrices • Trip distribution • sensitivity factor: small ... strong reduction of long distance trips • form factor: change of the ratio of trips between the zones.

  35. Common Scenarios Definition

  36. City Specific Input Data • original trip matrix • original distance matrix • parameter for the desired trip generation • Population • Mobility rates • parameter for the desired trip distribution • Sensitivity factor • Form factor

  41. Indicator Summary (1) • Definition of indicators in Deliverable D08/A: Sustainability Indicators • Processing of transport model output to determine totals • ... for Private Transport • vehicle-km • vehicle-hrs • additional vehicle-hrs due to congestion • vehicle-hrs in traffic jams • ... for Public Transport • passenger-km • passenger-hrs • passenger-hrs in overcrowded vehicles • ... disaggregated by transport systems

  42. Indicator Summary (2) • Selection of a primary demand segment • ... is required for the calculation of cold flows • ... has to be defined before reading the network description to select only the required data

  43. Indicator Summary (3) • Reading of link data • journey times for private transport • speeds for private transport • disaggregated by link and transport system • Aggregation to network level indicators • vehicle-km, vehicle-hr • additional vehicle-hr due to congestion • vehicle-hr in jam • passenger-km, passenger-hr • passenger-hr in overcrowded vehicles

  44. Indicator Summary : City Comparison

  46. Cold Flows (1) • „Cold Flows“ = Flows of vehicles operated under cold engine conditions • 5 Pollutants • CO2 • CO • HC • NOx • FC • 3 vehicle categories • vehicles driven by petrol engine with catalyst • vehicles driven by petrol engine without catalyst • vehicles driven by Diesel engine

  47. Cold Flows (2) • Each trip starts with a cold engine • Three Vehicle Categories in the Primary Demand Segment only (due to computation time) • All other Private Transport demand segments: driven by Diesel engines • Default values for vehicle shares in the Primary Demand Segment can be modified

  48. Cold Flows (3) • Shares of vehicles in a link producing CO2 from a petrol engine with catalyst under cold conditions
