1 Young thinking on future Smart Transport Ideas and illustrations by Students at Thorildsplan College Fariba Daryani, City av Stockholm, Sweden

2 Major challenges concerning traffic and transport Congestion, queues, delays Environment and climate burdening Growing towns and cities more travellers New smart solutions required How are we to get more people to walk, bike or use public transport? Does everyone have to travel at the same time? Unga idéer om

3 Travellers of the future Unga idéer om

4 Assignment - Smart Transport - Walk-friendly city - Challenges to planners Unga idéer om

5 Ideas about Smart Transport - increase the efficiency of transport systems - reduce the need to travel - increase access in urban areas - alter travel habits - reduce congestion - facilitate changes from car runs to other means of transport - create walk-friendly communities - get more people to move about on foot Unga idéer om

6 Unga idéer om

7 Categories Entries received can be put in the following categories: Smarter public transport More walking and biking Smarter road traffic Intelligent goods transport Better town planning The individual in traffic Unga idéer om

8 More walking and biking Unga idéer om

9 More walking and biking Ready, steady, go - Many people need to alter their travel habits, make it easier by using Intelligent transport system - Make the city more pedestrianfriendly - Make use of shortcuts. Open public buildings to facilitate shortcuts - Web-pages showing optimal pedestrian routes - With lit tunnels, flowers and shrubs etc, information on web, 3D mapsthey all increase accessibility - More comfortable journeys, less stress, proper use of time Unga idéer om

10 More walking and biking - Move all motor traffic to belowsurface tunnels! All motor traffic underground - Today s roads and streets could be used by buses, bikes and pedestrians - Traffic will flow better - Those who walk or bike will be rid of private cars in traffic - Greater safety fewer accidents - We want more people to use stairs instead of escalators - Entertaining sounds are activated by stair users. Lighting goes on when pedestrians approach Ungas Unga Så nyttjar idéer idéerviom om ungas idéer för att skapa Smarta SmartaTransporter Transporter

11 More walking and biking Moving walkways, along streets - It takes time, getting to bus stops and metro stations - Today, that time is not included in Stockholm Public Transport s journey planner - Moving walkways above pavements for faster pedestrian traffic! - Roofs to keep off poor weather - For local public transport ticket holders Ungas Unga Så nyttjar idéer idéerviom om ungas idéer för att skapa Smarta SmartaTransporter Transporter

12 More walking and biking Inviting footpaths - More people need to walk, even longer distances - Special footpaths are needed with: Dry walking surfaces (proper drainage) Good lighting Park benches Roofed-over resting spots Bridges at roads Unga idéer om

13 More walking and biking Weather-protected bikeways/pedestrian ways - Perspex over bikeways/pedestrian ways - Heat pumped in, in winter - Nice and warm. More people bike and walk - Doors at crossroads are only opened when the pedestrian light goes green - Bike rental at metro stations Unga idéer om

14 Better town planning The new pavement - Pedestrian streets one floor up - Walkers and bikers don t have to contend with drivers - Drivers don t have to contend with pedestrian crossings - A completely new dimension of town planning - Simpler if it s put into effect from the outset when new towns are built Ungas Unga Så nyttjar idéer idéerviom om ungas idéer för att skapa Smarta SmartaTransporter Transporter

15 Pedestrian/bikeways parallel with new public transport Unga idéer om

16 Pedestrian/bikeways parallel with new public transport Vantör link road pedestrian Bridge and trolleybus - Pedestrian bridge to link Hagsätra and Fruängen - Glassed-in pedestrian/ bikeways above ground, area for meeting and take a break - Trolleybuses underneath - Encourages population concentration and reduces segregation - Walk- friendly city Ungas Unga Så nyttjar idéer idéerviom om ungas idéer för att skapa Smarta SmartaTransporter Transporter

17 Pedestrian/bikeways parallel with new public transport Seatway - The journey from Bredäng metro station via Kärsön to Brommaplan takes 53 minutes today. With our system it will take 5 minutes at 70 km/h. - Pedestrian/bike tunnel 26 metres above the surface. This offers great views for both pedestrians and bikers and allows vessels to pass below Ungas Unga Så nyttjar idéer idéerviom om ungas idéer för att skapa Smarta SmartaTransporter Transporter

18 Pedestrian/bikeways parallel with new public transport Seatway - Maglev (magnetic levitation) carriages on a lower storey - Pedestrians and bikers on an upper storey - Major time winner - Reduce segregation between the two town centre Ungas Unga Så nyttjar idéer idéerviom om ungas idéer för att skapa Smarta SmartaTransporter Transporter

19 Pedestrian/bikeways parallel with new public transport Western suburb ring line - Links Vällingby and Tensta - Floating tram/metro: Alternates between abovesurface and underground, depending on terrain - Walkways and bikeways round the whole area, even parallel with tracks and through tunnels Ungas Unga Så nyttjar idéer idéerviom om ungas idéer för att skapa Smarta SmartaTransporter Transporter

20 Pedestrian/bikeways parallel with new public transport Edsviken line - A Kista to Mörby tram route using a bridge system would facilitate travel between the two suburban towns - Trams as well as pedestrian ways/bikeways on the bridge --A bridge on which pedestrians and bikers will have a lot of room and an appealing environment.

21 What the young consider needs to be done more walking and biking Almost everyone has access to pedestrian transport each of us is a walker; so town planning should give priority to pedestrian traffic and pedestrians Walking, as a compliment to public transport, presents a positive, sustainable alternative to other forms of transport Better conditions for walking and biking. Weather protection and enjoyment are aspects often brought up A wish to relocate motor traffic underground, and underline pedestrian ways, bikeways and public transport New means of travel, closely related to walking and biking Innovative walkways and bikeways parallel with all new public transport particularly on bridges Interest in walking is linked to other means of transport and communications politics; for example congestion charges and free public transport Special routes and short cuts for pedestrians Smarter use of existing transport facilities Many people need to alter their travel habits More comfortable journeys, less stress, proper use of time Unga idéer om

22 How do we move on? Use ideas in planning and strategy work Display the suggestions in various forums in order to stimulate debate and produce more new ideas Further collaboration with groups of children and adolescents Exchange of ideas with other major urban areas Unga idéer om
