1 / the right development Comments on cooperation models in the Netherlands Indlæg om samarbejdsmodeller i Holland på Vejforum 2017

2 / introduction

3 /what we stand for Technology solutions Simplicity is the soul of quality

4 /domains Mobility Industry Energy Public Safety & Security

5 / the right development Back to comments on cooperation models in the Netherlands Indlæg om samarbejdsmodeller i Holland på Vejforum 2017

6 / setting the scene To set the scene, we are talking about a country that: is shaped by the river deltas of the rivers Rhine, Meuse and Schelde is characterised by a high population density and corresponding density of socio-economic regions struggles with an infrastructure that time by time cannot cope with the traffic streams, on the road, fairways and railways

7 / setting the scene A country that builds on traffic management, given the: massive traffic flows with wide spread rush hour periods critical mix of modalities (bicycle, motor car, heavy traffic, busses, trams, train, inland barges and pleasure crafts) waterway crossing at critical places heavily used railways and rail way crossing at critical (urban) places

8 / setting the scene Now in who is responsible for traffic management?

9 / index After some decades on implementing traffic management in the Netherlands new approaches are needed! A new approach in public-public collaboration A new approach in public-private collaboration

10 / the right development Sustainable traffic management a (new) approach in public-public collaboration

11 / collaboration in traffic management Let us first have a look at barriers for traffic management that triggered sustainable traffic management

12 / barriers for traffic management Barrier n o 1. Administrative borders administrative borders turn road network into a jigsaw puzzles although high level polices might be similar, every administration tends to detail out ( colour ) these policies from their own perspective for their own area of responsibility altogether the variety of policies might be counterproductive for traffic optimisation

13 / barriers for traffic management..a phenomenon for metropolitan areas all over Europe Stockholm Metropole Amsterdam Metropole Greater Manchester

14 / barriers for traffic management Barrier n o 2. Interwoven (layered) road network motorways, rural roads, urban roads, all together they form a coherent road network in a metropolitan region, within a city, a regional road network functions like a waterbed traffic optimisation can only be done by taking the coherent road network in consideration, whatever the geographical scope we take

15 / barriers for traffic management Barrier n o 3. misalignment between policy demands and dayto-day operations Copied from Dreamstime.com how to configure a traffic light controller such that it both prevents deadlocks and grid locks and contributes to the (new) policy objectives? same for rerouting traffic? saturated corridor or network grid lock dead lock

16 / barriers for traffic management Sustainable Traffic Management, an approach to overcome these barriers

17 / sustainable traffic management Sustainable traffic management starts with a shift in paradigm Shift the focus from traffic optimisation to how to utilise the network of motorways, avenues and streets optimally?

18 / sustainable traffic management Utilisation differs from optimisation Not every traffic jam is an issue Maximum speed is not always the desired (harmonic) speed Not every route is a route to be used for rerouting..

19 / sustainable traffic management Utilisation needs to be approached from three directions Policies TM strategy Service levels Services TM tactics OPERATIONS TM scenarios instruments Technologies

20 / collaboration in traffic management on strategic level Strategic collaboration can best be explained via an example

21 / collaboration in traffic management on strategic level

22 / collaboration in traffic management on strategic level Urban regions interlinked via a strategic road network (part of the Trans-European Network)

23 / collaboration in traffic management on strategic level urbanised regions Natural tension between various interest economic centres Do we give preference to the economy (and thus economic centres and ports), cities (an thus urban areas), nature,? main, brain and green ports

24 / collaboration in traffic management on strategic level If economy prevails, then we will start with the corridors that interlink the economic centres and ports

25 / collaboration in traffic management on strategic level Following this reasoning, we end up with a scheme that expresses the relevance of the corridors (relevance 4) (relevance 3) (relevance 2) Strategic road network corridors interlinking socio-economic regions corridors that interlink economic core areas and main, brain and green ports on European level (relevance 1). weakest links from traffic management perspective

26 Regional scheme for Zuid-Holland / collaboration in traffic management on strategic level Ring road of Rotterdam and Traffic node The Hague

27 / collaboration in traffic management on strategic level You might recognise this for the Danish situation (example for Greater Copenhagen)

28 / collaboration in traffic management on strategic level Now, let us step from a national via a regional scheme to a local scheme

29 / collaboration / what in is traffic the added management value of on traffic strategic control? level..underlying spatial-socio-economic considerations Safeguard throughput on motorways Zones where traffic can be buffered when necessary from network perspective Safeguard quality of environment in inner city Prevent grid locks in residential areas Spread traffic over the entrances to the city Source: city of Venlo

30 / collaboration in traffic management on strategic level As such, coordinated network wide traffic management is a matter of collaboration and commitment

31 / sustainable traffic management Utilisation needs to be approached from three directions Policies TM strategy Service levels Services TM tactics OPERATIONS TM scenarios instruments Technologies

32 How starts best from the triple helix / collaboration in traffic management on tactical level

33 / collaboration in traffic management on tactical level An example

34 / collaboration in traffic management on tactical level Possible solutions? Network-wide coordination of measures! Deploy measures jointly and coherently to prevent above limitations (e.g. coordinated ramp-metering, intersection control, etc.) Use buffer-space elsewhere in the network Deploy measures jointly and consider network effects

35 / collaboration in traffic management on tactical level An example for adaptive traffic management to prevent congestion on a motorway Source: Why Traffic Management Works by Prof. dr. Serge Hoogendoorn

36 / collaboration in traffic management on tactical level..using ramp metering and controlled intersections 1 of 2 Source: Why Traffic Management Works by Prof. dr. Serge Hoogendoorn

37 / collaboration in traffic management on tactical level Possible solution? Network-wide coordination of measures!

38 / collaboration in traffic management on tactical level Utilisation needs to be approached from three directions Policies TM strategy Service levels Services TM tactics OPERATIONS TM scenarios instruments Technologies

39 / public private collaboration in traffic management Here, new ways of public private collaborations come in place

40 Four levels of support to a vehicle driver / public private collaboration in traffic management Traffic Manager Intervene electronic stability control autonomous cruise control lane departure warning collision avoidance Automotive OEM Inform travel times traffic jams (location & lengths) weather obstructions Service Provider Warn & Advice traffic conditions conditions road surface weather conditions route guidance speed alert driving & rest times Instruct (directive) traffic control at intersections and junctions dynamic speed limits opening / closure of traffic lanes hard shoulder usage, rush hour lanes diversions ADAS IVIS ATM Autonomous driver assistance Information and guidance Traffic management

41 Support that has a geographical scope / public private collaboration in traffic management driving direction vehicle dynamics direct surroundings x kilometre ahead (e.g. 2 km) regional network

42 Now, who is responsible for the ten kilometre gap in driver assistance and guidance? Level Range Driving tasks Products Local vehicle level Up to 100 m Operational (maintaining & tuning speed, headway, heading) / public private collaboration in traffic management ACC, LDWA, BLIS Traffic controllers, ramp metering Downstream traffic flow level Network levels 0,1-10 km Tactical (choosing speed, headway, lane) 10 km and more Strategic (route choice) Static navigation Variable Message Signs, Dynamic Traffic Signs Navigation plus RDS-TMC or TPEG, navigator bound traffic information Variable Message Signs

43 Conflicts of interest / public private collaboration in traffic management Braess paradox

44 / public private collaboration in traffic management Better informed on the road (roadmap ) as an answer to this conflict of interest

45

46

47 Talking Traffic (strategic partnership) / public private collaboration in traffic management Information services C-ITS Traffic Light Controller

48 / sustainable traffic management Utilisation needs to be approached from three directions Policies TM strategy Service levels Services TM tactics OPERATIONS TM scenarios instruments Technologies

49 / collaboration in traffic management on tactical level Collaboration on strategic level boils down up to operational level Operational monitor, (de)activate scenarios, support incident management, etc Tactical translate strategy into scenarios

50 / collaboration in traffic management on tactical level DVM Exchange, protocol developed and maintained in public private partnership to enable dynamic interaction between traffic management systems Network management system Device management system Road side devices

51 / collaboration in traffic management on tactical level Next step: multi-domain.. multi-area..as a service Policies TM strategy TM tactics Service levels Services OPERATIONS TM scenarios instruments Technologies

52 Rationale / collaboration in traffic management on tactical level There is a significant amount of pubic control centres. How can we enhance efficiency and effectiveness?

53 icentre, again a strategic partnership Focus group I Service goals and KPIs / collaboration in traffic management on tactical level Focus group II Operations and operators Public authorities Focus group III Data and information Focus group IV Technology and (ICT)systems Focus group V-VII Context and commercial proposition

54 Multi-domain.. multi-area..as a service Tunnel management Bridges and lock management City surveillance Crowd management& Safety Single domain multiple domains (integrated) Single management area multiple management areas Own centre & operations Centre & Operations as-a-service Road traffic management Parking management

55 / sustainable traffic management Utilisation requires collaboration and commitment on all levels (strategic, tactical, operational) (public-public, public-private) Policies TM strategy Service levels Services OPERATIONS TM tactics TM scenarios instruments Technologies

56 / setting the scene So from 2017on..who is responsible for traffic management?

57 / index After some decades on implementing traffic management in the Netherlands new approaches are needed! A new approach in public-public collaboration A new approach in public-private collaboration
