8 Guangzhou led the way in a process of regulating, containing and eventually banning motorized 2 and 3 wheelers Cities throughout China followed suit
9 Guangzhou Case Study
10 In the early 1980s, owning a motorcycle was equivalent in status terms to having an expensive imported car today. In 1978 the number of motorcycles registered in the Guangzhou urban area was only 3,833. Most of the owners were overseas Chinese who had returned from Southeast Asian countries.
11 Motorcycle ownership grew rapidly in the 1980s, as Guangzhou s economy thrived as one of the coastal open areas. By 1982 the number of motorcycles registered in the Guangzhou urban area had increased to 8,892. By 1988 the number of registered motorcycles exceeded 100,000 for the first time; a growth rate of around 40% per year over a decade.
12 During the early 1990s motorcycle taxis emerged. The number of motorcycles increased dramatically.
13 By 1992 the number of motorcycles registered in Guangzhou s urban area exceeded 200,000. By 1995 the figure had reached 361,000; a growth rate averaging 20% per year since In 1997, the number of motorcycles registered in the Guangzhou urban area reached their historical peak of 401,655.

15 Guangzhou 1984: negligible cars and motorcycles. 94% of trips: walk, bicycle, bus walk bicycle bus ferry official car & shuttle bus motorcycle taxi 35% 30% 25% 20% 25% 30% 20% 15% 10% 5% 10% 5% 5% 5% 0% walk bicycle bus ferry car motorcycle taxi By 2003 motorcycles accounted for more than one quarter of non-walking trips

22 Progressive implementation of the ban Oct. 1991: from 7:00am to 7:00pm motorcycles not registered in the city were not allowed to operate within the eight Guangzhou urban districts. Only 500 motorcycle registrations would be accepted each month. 1995: No new motorcycle registrations accepted March 1998: stopped processing motorcycle scrapping, updating of registration information, or claims for loss of registration markings 1999: Motorcycles not registered in the urban area totally prohibited from operation within the city
23 Progressive implementation of the ban Nov. 2000: motorcycles and three-wheelers registered outside the respective areas were prohibited from operating within an additional four areas outside the main Guangzhou urban area: Panyu District, Huadu District, Zengcheng City, and Conghua City 2001: working group set up on banning motorcycles Jan. 2002: Guangzhou City Motorcycle Scrapping Management Regulation came into force. Motorcycles registered more than 15 years ago must be scrapped, except for motorcycles which met current emission standards Dec. 2002: registration of new motorcycles in two adjoining districts (Panyu and Huadu) and cities (Conghua and Zengcheng) halted
24 Progressive implementation of the ban Feb. 2003: Mandatory scrapping date for motorcycles and three-wheelers adjusted to 10 yrs and 8 yrs respectively Apr. 2003: Any motorcycle registered before 1 Jan must be scrapped immediately. Motorcycles registered between 1990 and 1993 must be scrapped by 1 Oct Mar. 2004: "Announcement on Restricting Motorcycles Running on Road Sections in Some Urban Regions", restricting motorcycles in the downtown area, applied in 3 phases.
25 Progressive implementation of the ban The first phase from 1 May 2004 banned motorcycles each day from 9:00am to 4:30pm, and again from 8:30pm to 5:00am the next day.
26 Progressive implementation of the ban The second phase, from 1 January 2006, banned motorcycles from running on Dongfeng Road for 24 hours each day. The third phase, from 1 January 2007, banned all motorcycles from the urban area, 24 hours each day.

42 Complementary measures Public transport: More than 50 short bus routes were introduced to help meet demand previously served by motorcycle taxis
43 Route 401: Small streets; urban villages; 1-3km long; 1 yuan fare
44 Route 403
45 One of the small buses used to meet demand previously served by motorcycle taxis
46 Complementary measures Compensation for motorcycle scrapping
47 Compensation for scrapping The Guangzhou City Compensation Incentive Plan for Motorcycles Scrapped or Moved Out of Urban Areas," required payment of compensation for each motorcycle which was scrapped. By May 2006 more than 5,000 motorcycles had already been scrapped, and the total compensation paid exceeded 6.27 million yuan (US$920,000); around US$180 per motorcycle. Compensation was calculated according to whether the motorcycle was used for less than 10 years, or between 10 and 13 years. (For motorcycles older than 13 years, no compensation was paid.) For motorcycles used for less than 10 years the compensation was calculated according to the cost when it was bought (according to the receipt) minus the average depreciation over a ten year period, with a minimum of 1,260 yuan (~US$150 by earlier exchange rate) Incentive for owners to scrap motorcycles sooner rather than later.
48 Complementary measures Employment support for displaced motorcycle drivers Several special labour fairs were held to provide support to people previously employed as motorcycle taxi drivers or elsewhere in the motorcycle sector to find new jobs.
49 Complementary measures Special enforcement measures In motorcycle gathering places, collective combat operations were mounted, including the use of plain-clothes as well as uniformed policemen and officials, mobile equipment inventory, ambushes, and other methods to seize illegal vehicles

56 Results of the ban
57 Environmental, security, safety and pedestrian amenity improvements Noise pollution, especially in narrow alleyways and at night, was greatly reduced, and significant reductions in carbon monoxide, particulates and nitrogen oxide emissions were reported. Crashes significantly declined in January to August 2007 (when there were no motorcycles) compared to the same period a year earlier. Crashes declined by 17.5%, deaths by 2.2%, injuries by 20.4%, and property losses by 42.3%. In Guangzhou from January to August 2007 there were 52,141 criminal cases, a decline of 15.3% compared with the corresponding period a year earlier. Snatch theft cases declined by 44.3% over the same period. The quality of the walking environment throughout the city has been greatly improved.
58 Traffic and mode split impact Traffic speeds have rapidly deteriorated over the last two years But the motorcycle ban may not be the main contributor
59 Half shifted to buses. And although nearly 20% of motorcycle riders shifted to cars, the same percentage shifted to bicycles, and nearly 10% walked. pedestrian 9% metro 2% other 2% car 18% bus 51% bicycle 18% Short term motorcycle mode shifts following the ban from 1 January 2007
60 Concluding remarks Banning of a major mode, widely seen as successful and supported by communities, despite probable adverse impact on congestion Draconian but not crude Same approach being taken in nearly all Chinese cities, and even in many counties Local industry not necessarily an obstacle
