36 A Mobility plan in Ile de France

37 The legal framework: Air quality Act (1996) Every cities over inhabitants have to develop an urban mobility plan. Goals of urban mobility plans. Decrease car traffic Increase the use of public transport, bicycle and walk Redesign structural roads and traffic management giving priority to public transport, bicycles and walk Manage parking Improve use of rail for freight Organize urban deliveries

38 Planning April 1998: Diagnostic April 1999 to October 2000: develop urban mobility plan April 1999 to May 1999: survey among inhabitants May 1999 to October 2000: thematic groups involving all stakeholders October 2000 to July 2000: enquiries with all local authorities November 2000: taking into account the remarks from local authorities December 2000: Urban mobility plan approval

39 Urban mobility plan contents: 4 major goals (1) Maintain the city s way of functioning Mininize nuisances without limiting the region s economic development Developing a new land use in urban areas Reconcile a land use respecful of every citizen and urban mobility. Create urban nodes besides the CBD Organize mobility outside the dense central area. Give the street back to the citizen Implement short terms actions that will improve everyday life and public area of the citizens.

40 Urban mobility plan Contents : The 5 year plan (2) Reducing car use: - 3 % veh/km for the Paris region, with - 5 % for Paris and inner suburb and - 2 % in outer suburb A new modal shift: Car use in outer suburb less than 85 % Increase use PT by 2%. Modal shift in PT use for work and school trips (1/3 of the trips mode by public transportation) Increase by 10% of walking Trips by bike doubled Increase by 3% modal share of rail for freight

41 Actions taken (1) : PT quality of service Improve off-peak frequency Increase of transit span Offer New services during the week-end Collaborate with the taxi services

42 Actions taken (2) : Mobilien Network (BRT network) Add on to the Paris metro and commuter rail radial networks by connecting the suburbs focusing on the beltway (express services in the outer edge of the urban area) High linkage between the rail and the BRT systems «Rail like» quality of service

43 Mobilien network: quality of service for the inner metropolitan area Reliability and special focus on problematic sections Frequencies of 10mn or less throughout the day High service span with service at night and on the weekend User information at stops and on board Accessibility for disabled users

44 Mobilien network: quality of service for the outer metropolitan area between urban nodes Express service between urban nodes Use of the express ways Information to users at the stops Regular frequency Service throughout the week (even on the weekend)

45 Nodes Exchange nodes between BRT and rail networks Rehabilitation of the adjacent land for walking, biking and bus connections Ease transfers: good planning of connecting paths, adjusted time tables, user information.

46 Promote walking and biking Good for air quality, excellent for health! Slow transportation, demanding in terms of effort: ensure a direct and short path Walking Promote walking for school trips Focus on vulnerable users: kids and seniors. Width and accessibility of the sidewalks Crossing of intersections Biking Bikepath: dedicated ways or shared with buses. Ensure parking in apartment complexes, office buildings, schools and other public places.

47 Parking Pivotal tool to enforce modal shift. Use of car per week / distance between parking place and home Source: Sareco (2008)

48 Freight Vital to the economy: 15 to 20% of the traffic. 50% of freight trips within the Ile de France Region start and end in the region. 3% weight increase in trips made by waterways or rail Taken into account in traffic and parking management

49 Exchange nodes: example of «la Defense»

50 Exchange Nodes: example of «La defense» enterprises (14 of the 20 biggest french companies) jobs inhabitants Suburban rail: 3 lines ( RER A, lines L and U of Transilien network), Metro: Line 1 Tramway: Line 2 Bus: 15 lines of bus Company shuttles

51 Exchange Nodes Level - 4 : RER A Level -3 : Metro line 1 Level -2 : Exits, Large room with shopping mall, Parkings. Level -1 : Bus stops and Tramway

52 Place of residence of workers Source : EPAD, 2006

53 Use of transport means of workers 84,6 % of workers coming to La Défense by public transport 13 % by car or motorbike 2,4 % biking and walking Source : EPAD, 2006

54 Main targets to 2020 to meet the goal of decreasing GES by 20 % Ending saturation on congestionned part of rail network Replace Rolling Stock Facing Urban growth Developping public transport supply for periphery-to-periphery trips

55 Urgent needs: saturation of rail network (metro et RER) Some lines are overloaded: Load > 95 % on three metro lines. Line 13 : Load > 111 %. Solutions : investment in rolling stock (higher capacity by train) or automation (higher frequency). Automation of line 1 : + 25% of capacity.

56 Urgent needs: replace rolling stock Lifetime of rail rolling stock between 35 and 40 years. Metro: more than 85 % of rolling stock has been put in operation before RER RATP: average age of rolling stock 23 years. RER SNCF: only 1/3 rolling stock have less than 20 years. Two programs have already been launched : New Automotrices for Transilien network (SNCF): put in operatin between New rolling stock in metro : 3 lines (MF 2000) and line 1 (MP 05).

57 Funding development of new infrastructures and enhancement of current network New infrastructures : + 13 % of metro network distance, RER/trains and tramway km (1650 km currently). Cost from now to billions. Only 2,67 billions financed by «Project Contract ».

58 Funding enhancement and replacement of rolling stock Costs from now to 2020 : 8 Billions. Only 800 Millions financed by «Project Contract ». Especially for new lines: 800 M. Only rolling stock for CPER projects is considered.

59 Funding future operation Additional operation costs on new infrastructures M /year in Bus supply enhancement M /year in 2020.

60 Funding needs Investment cost Additional operation cost in 2020 New infrastructures 18 Billion 0,3 Billion / year Rolling stock for new infrastructures Replacement of Rolling Stock 0,8 Billion (only CPER projects) 8 Billion Bus supply enhancement 0,25 Billion / year (étude STIF / GART: 2007)
