1 Seite 1 Public Transport as a Necessity for Active Transport Manfred Breithaupt Urban Transport Consultant to GIZ

2 Active Transport requires an attractive Public Transport System and its Integration with NMT By: Manfred Breithaupt Urban Transport Consultant to GIZ

3 Traffic concentrates on few arterial roads China: Does anyone today want to head in the same direction?

4 Challenges in developing cities we have to get from In most cities, mobility is dominated by personal motorized transport.

5 Source: Bicycle Innovation Lab to there City Govt. must strive for car independent lifestyle Adopt Sustainable Transportation Policy and strategies

6 We have it all on this photo

7 Main Components of Sustainable Transport or Active Transport Public Transport with priority over all other modes on the road Non-motorized transport Creating/conserving public space PT Integration (its various modes) and integration with NMT (TDM measures... not part of active transport definition) Do you see these factors here?

8 Livable Cities & Urban Life We want to create liveable cities Mercer Quality of Living Survey 2015 Top 10 (worldwide): Vienna, Austria (1st) Zurich, Switzerland (2nd) Auckland, New Zealand (3rd ) Munich, Germany (4th) Vancouver, Canada (5th) Düsseldorf, Germany (6th) Frankfurt, Germany (7th) Geneva, Switzerland (8th) Copenhagen, Denmark (9th) Sydney, Australia (10th) Source: VBZ Zurich, 2009, Vienna Zurich Munich

9 ..and what is their success story? Examples: Vienna (#1 Quality of living Index) Public Transport and NMT (PT and NMT not for poorer cities, but smart solutions, promoting growth and attractiveness. Proven to be a success factor for high income and successful cities) Integrated Transport Policy: PT, NMT and IMT Modal Share of PT 36% More than 2/3 of journeys are done by PT and NMT (which is the case for all so called livable cities such as Zurich, Munich, Berlin, London.) Vienna top ranked in quality of living surveys conducted by the British consultancy firm Mercer Source: M. Breithaupt, 2009,

15 Public Transport priority Is PT prioritized over other modes?

16 Segregated lanes Bogotá s ramped pedestrian bridges work quite well with virtually no noncompliance. Key features meters wide Aesthetically attractive Clean and well-maintained

17 Promotion of public transport system and a comfortable and supporting NMT network First Last Mile Strategic Plan, Document, Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority

18 An effective public transportation system depends upon its ease of access First Last Mile Strategic Plan, Document, Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority

19 Without an attractive Public Transport System NMT improvements (at least in larger cities) will not bring the intended shift from car based travel (they complement each other) Key issues in NMT Promotion: (1) Coherence: Connect all important origins and destinations Integration with public transport (2) Directness: Direct routes and avoidance of detours (3) Safety: Segregated bicycle lanes (4) Comfort: Smooth pavement (5) Attractiveness: Avoid deserted and isolated routes

20 In many of the developing cities, access trips to PT systems is still a major challenge Footpath condition in Bangalore, India Bus Station in Delhi, India

21 Adequate signaling VIKAS MARG Source: CSE Coherence consistent, continuous, and adequate amenities The infrastructure forms a coherent unit and is linked to the origins and the destinations of cyclists That s why we need: Consistent quality Different design Continuity Few changes in the design and width Complete routes No interruptions

26 Can elderly and people with special abilities use such NMT facilities?

27 Can elderly and people with special abilities use such NMT facilities?

28 Achieving modal integration Without solving this we will not achieve the intended shift from car based travel (PT and NMT complement each other)

29 What needs to be integrated? Feeder services Other mass transit systems Pedestrians Bicycles Taxis, shared transport, bicycle- and motorbike taxis

30 Integration: With PT. Integrated Transfer Stations

31 Integrated Information & Timetable planning

32 Achieve modal integration between bicycles trips with MRT and Bus Systems

33 Why should we focus on integrating bicycle trips with PT stations? Provides 6 times more spatial coverage compared to walking Reduces costs incurred by the users to reach the stations Complements feeder routes Can reduce demand in some stations if properly implemented 3000 m. 500 m. With bicycle On foot 1000 m m.

34 Calle 76 Calle 100 Virrey Calle 85 Héroes

35 Integrate bicycle parking with MRT stations e.g. parking a bike at TransMilenio Américas Terminal

36

37 Assess potential of public bike sharing schemes in and around MRT stations

38 Expand public bike sharing systems in and around MRT stations

39 Induced Bicycle Traffic Cycling in Copenhagen increased by 100% from 1990 to 2000 MODAL SPLIT: 37% go to work on bicycle 23% use car 33% use public transport
