1 Urban Transport Service Level Benchmarking in Urban Transport for Indian Cities Ahmedabad Bhubaneswar Hubli-Dharwad Kohima Mysore Surat An Initiative of the, Government of India Presented by Prof. H.M. Shivanand Swamy

2 Urban Transport Service Level Benchmarking A comprehensive framework to measure and monitor urban transport performance in India - established in 011 by the Ministry of Urban Development, GOI Identifies problem areas and areas of excellence An ongoing process Collects data for comparative purposes Review of best practice in the activity to form basis for defining level of service

3 Urban Transport Service Level Benchmarking A mechanism for introducing accountability in service delivery of urban transport comparing service performance levels against set targets or good practices. Useful for assessing performance trends and setting targets Inputs to land use transport strategy formulation Assessing investment outcomes To showcase achievements / good practice Envisaged as an annual activity to be presented as a annual budgeting exercise 5

4 Preparatory Study for Benchmarking Study Area Delineation 1 Mark the Municipal limits of the city- (a) 1 3 Mark the village / town boundaries in Urban Development Authority area (b) Digitize the contiguous built-up area adjoining the municipal limits (c) Select the villages/ towns that correspond to step 1. (b & c= d) Define the Study area i.e. Municipal area + Area selected in step 4 (a + d) Bhubaneswar Study area :179 sq.km 6

5 Preparatory Study for Benchmarking Selection of network inventory Digitization of roads Classification of road into four levels Arterial and sub arterial and all roads where PT is plying 7

6 reparatory Study for Benchmarking election of Public Transport Routes 1 Identification of corridors with Headways<60mins Less than 10 min- Survey all the routes 10-0 minutes- 5% of the randomly selected routes 0-60 min- 5% of the randomly selected routes All routes that ply on the selected road for inventory 8

7 Preparatory Study for Benchmarking Selection of Public Transport Stops 1 Selection of bus stops for calculating average waiting time 3 Out of the total number of bus stops (N), a sample of (n) bus stops (depending on city size) is selected to calculate the avg. waiting time :- 1. > 4 million - 10% million -5% 3. <1 million-50% A reco survey was conducted in Ahmedabad. it was observed that waiting time is not always half of headway Relation between headways and waiting time was established through this surveys for 1. <10 mins. 10-0mins mins Headways Constant < >

8 Data collection Secondary Data Collection Data sources like annual reports, websites, etc for secondary data collection Focus of data collection was on updated information for the indicators using data that is dynamic in nature. Necessity to cross check data to avoid misinterpretation and to identify valid reason for change in number Primary Data Collection Road inventory Survey Level of Comfort Surveys Speed and Delay Surveys NMT at Transit Stations Lux Survey Land use along Transit corridor 10

9 Adapting Indicators for Hill Cities Why do we need to look at Hill Cities differently? Geographical constraints Steep slopes, landslides, heterogeneity of climate, land use pattern and scarcity of buildable land Scale and Size Size of these cities maybe smaller but the scale is much larger as it is driven by both residents and visitors Functionality specific features of these areas tend to reflect on the different time frame for the local mobility, economy and also the social characteristics 11

10 Adapting Indicators for Hill Cities Issues Reasoning Service Coverage of public transport is defined by: - Network length - Area covered at 500 m Cannot take coverage as 500m from stops due to topography m in plain cities is equivalent to what in hill cities? *it takes 6 minutes for 5km/hr (Naismith rule) 1

11 Adapting Indicators for Hill Cities Research background methodology to compute basis for Hill Cities Developing a base Survey required for computation Base information required to collect for all hill cities 1. Contours. Generate Elevation from Contours 3. Generate Slopes from Elevation. 4. Using Path distance tool and applying Tobler s hiking function (vertical factors) to calculate the cost in terms of time. 1.Public transport user survey. Average walking speed Interpretation of 500m buffer 13

12 Adapting Indicators for Hill Cities Computation Result from survey Calculation for computation Sample size 1% of ridership-0nos 75% of bus users use walk as an access and egress mode 45 % of the bus users are walking 10 minutes 3% of the bus users are willing to walk upto o minutes to a bus stops Average walking speed is.3 km/hr m = 30 m i.e. It takes 6 minutes to walk 30m in hill areas. Willingness to walk = 0 mins = 750m i.e. Coverage of public transport is 750m instead of 500m because people walk more on hilly areas. 14

13 Adapting Indicators for Hill Cities Pedestrian Infrastructure facilities Issues Reasoning Presence of high number of footsteps that provides connectivity An important means of access particularly for areas that are not accessible by road. Footpath along the road may not always be possible because of limited right of way..therefore, footsteps become important to consider somewhere in the benchmarking process as these are important access points and are also considered as local roads. 15

14 Modified Indicator within Focus Areas Pedestrian Infrastructure facilities Hill Cities Methodology Survey required for computation Step 1: Identify steps that connect to PT 50 metre length either side of the stops Survey 75% Step : Identify steps that connect level 1 & level roads(connecting commercial and Institution and residential) - Survey 50% Step 3: Classification of footsteps Identify steps that provide connectivity to more than 10 households- survey 5% 1. Footstep survey 1. Quality of footsteps. Pedestrian interview Sample 70 nos
