Transportplanlægning og transportpolitik

This volume is a valuable source of ACT information for developing holistic research methods and global policies for making progress towards the SDGs.

What if urban planning and design were to prioritize rather than merely accommodate the unbuilt environment? Territorial Urbanism Now! calls for a paradigm shift in the conception of urban transformation. It urges us to favor sustainable systems in order to collectively tackle the challenges of climate change. Until now, urban planning and design professionals have integrated green and active mobility systems in the residual spaces available. In the reverse approach envisioned here, these systems become structuring elements of the territory, supported by a much more frugal built environment. The contributions by urbanists, artists, architects, and landscape architects in this publication come from research, practice, and teaching. Paola Viganò, Eric Luiten, Eva Pfannes, Stefan Rettich, Susanne Eliasson, Davide Curatola, Tommaso Pietropolli, Elena Andonova, Julio de la Fuente, Ward Verbakel, Beatrice Galimberti, Lilli Licka, Hannes Gröblbacher, Johannes Bernsteiner, Stefan Devoldere, Sandra Guinand, and Stefan Bendiks not only introduce a much-needed paradigm shift, but also show us the premises for its realization.

Mobilities are an essential issue in contemporary societies, which have recently been reexamined as a result of calls for ecological transition, on the one hand, and the impact of the global Covid 19 pandemic, on the other. The original contribution of this book is that it starts from the polysemic meaning of mobility, paying attention to different scales of perception and action, the lived spaces in which mobility occurs, and the ¿alternative¿ character of so-called sustainable mobilities and the actors who display or engage in such practices. The concept of mobilities is thus considered in relation to urban spaces and sustainability, based on the analysis of French case studies from a European perspective and using multidisciplinary social sciences approaches.

A unique journey around the UK's National Cycle Network and one journalist's quest to investigate the state of our country's cycling.At 42, the National Cycle Network (NCN) is just a few years older than cycling journalist Laura Laker. Half of the UK population live within a mile of the 16,000+ mile-long network but many of us don't even know it exists. Post-lockdown Laura sets off around the NCN on her pink e-bike to determine the state of the nation of the country's unifying cycling network. Despite the threat of carbon emissions, our roads are still geared to drivers and it remains a challenge to navigate the UK on two wheels. What has gone right - and wrong - with this piece of national infrastructure? Why is it run by a charity whose CEO once admitted it's 'a bit crap'? Could it be because it is dependent on the mercy of landowners, councils and, in one case, a caravan park proprietor outside of Oban? Laura lifts the lid on this maddening, patchy, and at times dangerous cycle infrastructure, and the similarly precarious politics and financing that make it what it is. Along the way she includes visits to the Lakes, heads down to Cornwall via her hometown of Wiveliscombe in Somerset, travels from Bristol to Bath and along the Thames Path, and makes trips to Scotland and Wales. On her mission to pin down what the NCN is and what it means to those she meets en route, she also speaks to high-profile travelling companions, including Chris Boardman and Ned Boulting. The NCN could be our salvation, but right now it can't even save itself. Join Laura as she experiences the NCN first-hand to understand how it came to be and explores the future of our nation's cycling.

Mobilität prägt die Gesellschaft und damit unsere Beziehungen und sozialen Strukturen. Um ihre Bedeutung und ihr Potenzial zu verstehen, muss man Mobilität als interdisziplinäres Gefl echt von Beziehungen begreifen. Dieses Buch beleuchtet Mobilität aus verschiedenen Blickwinkeln und zeigt auf, wie sie die Gesellschaft auf der Mikro- und Makroebene formt. Die Gesichtspunkte werden in einer Fülle von Beiträgen - von visuellen bis hin zu wissenschaftlichen Essays - von Expert:innen aus verschiedenen Bereichen vorgestellt.Die Gestaltung des Buches ermöglicht es dem Leser, praktische und visionäre Verbindungen herzustellen und unsichtbare Beziehungen zwischen Mobilitäten und Aspekten unserer sich entwickelnden Gesellschaft zu erkunden. Um dies zu erreichen, denken die Herausgeber über einen neuen Weg nach, die Gesellschaft mit einem Blick auf Mobilitätsfragen zu betrachten und die gegenwärtigen mentalen und physischen Hürden der Gesellschaft zu überwinden.Dieser Designansatz zur Untersuchung der Gesellschaft lädt die Leserschaft auf eine vielseitige Reise durch die Ströme von Waren, Menschen, Materialien, Ideen und Vermögenswerten sowie deren Interaktion ein. Es entkleidet die Welt von ihren einseitigen und unverrückbaren Eigenschaften und erforscht auf kreative Weise die weicheren Mobilitätsformen, die die Gesellschaft auf ökologischer, globaler und menschlicher Ebene formen.

Mobilities in Remote Places explores the meanings, challenges, and opportunities of remoteness as practiced and experienced by those who live and work in some of the world's most remote communities.

Mit dem Ludwigs-Main-Donau-Kanal gelang es, die Europäische Wasserscheide zu überwinden und eine schiffbare Verbindung von der Nordsee zum Schwarzen Meer schaffen. Innerhalb von zehn Jahren wurden 100 Schleusen, über 70 Dämme sowie zahlreichen Brücken und Brückenkanäle errichtet. Friedrich Schultheis schildert hier detailreich den Fortgang der Bauarbeiten von den ersten Planungen bis zur Einweihung im Juli 1846. 26 Doppelseitige Illustrationen von Alexander Marx geben einen Eindruck von diesem Meisterwerk der Technikgeschichte.

ir Transport and Regional Development Methodologies promotes a better understanding of how the air transport related problems of core regions and remote regions should be addressed to enhance both economic competitiveness and social cohesion in Europe.

Air Transport and Regional Development Policies is one of three inter-connected books related to a four-year European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) Action established in 2015. This book focuses on policy implications related to air transport and regional development.

For over seventy years, private cars have dominated public space in German cities. In the Free Street Manifesto, a creative-academic alliance fundamentally challenges this status quo, highlighting the forgotten and unrecognized characteristics of streets and the opportunities they present. In doing so, the alliance focuses on a communal spatial resource that we, in times of climate change, digitalization, and social inequality, urgently need to learn to use differently. Through images, comics, graphics, and succinct scientific insights, the Free Street Manifesto points the way to a future full of exciting possibilities-and demonstrates that our streets should be more than just a route from A to B.

Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject Economy - Transport Economics, grade: 1.0, Zeppelin University Friedrichshafen, language: English, abstract: The congestion problem could be alleviated by switching to more space-efficient means of transport such as local public transport. The majority of cities lack incentive systems that encourage individual users to switch. This paper addresses this problem and discusses the possibility of introducing a price mechanism within the framework of a congestion charge. In the second chapter, transport economic models and the urban modal split are used as the basis. In the second half of the second chapter, congestion is considered as an expression of a collective action problem and possible counter-mechanisms. With regard to the research question, attention is paid to the congestion charge. In the third chapter, the case study method is used to analyse the three cities Stockholm, London and Singapore that have already introduced congestion charges. From the different price models as well as effects on the demand for transport services, recommendations for action for the application in German cities are developed in the fourth chapter. The last chapter contains a critical discussion and a conclusion.

This book analyses the strategies used by public authorities to expand the UK aviation industry in relation to growing political opposition and the negative impacts on local communities and climate change.

The management of World Heritage Cities and sites is a challenging task. Getting visitor flows and the enormous traffic under control and implementing urban development projects in ways that preserve the integrity and authenticity of cultural heritage requires a high level of expertise, backed by the support of civil society and politics.This book is the result of the 2018 Conference of the Organization of World Heritage Cities, held by the Regional Secretariat for Northwest Europe and North America in Amsterdam, with the theme "Heritage & Tourism: Local Communities and Visitors - Sharing Responsibilities". The contributing expert authors - from Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Europe - draw on a range of disciplines to offer wider perspectives, stimulating dialogue among the spheres of heritage, sustainable tourism, and spatial planning. An updated chapter offers perspectives on sustainable tourism also after the COVID-19 pandemic.

In keinem anderen Land Europas gibt es so viele städtische Bahnen wie in Deutschland. In diesem Band stellen wir Ihnen nicht nur die vier klassischen U-Bahnen (Berlin, Hamburg, München und Nürnberg) vor, sondern auch alles andere, was an den Eingängen mit einem weißen U auf blauem Hintergrund gekennzeichnet ist, also jene Stadtbahnen, die einst langfristig zu echten U-Bahnen ausgebaut werden sollten: Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Köln, Bonn, Düsseldorf, Duisburg, Essen/Mülheim, Bochum, Dortmund, Bielefeld und Hannover. -//- Germany has more urban rail networks than any other country in Europe. This book introduces you not only to all the conventional metro systems (Berlin, Hamburg, Munich and Nuremberg), but also to those networks which at their station entrances boast a white U on a blue background, i.e. the systems that were originally designed to become proper metros in the long term: Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Cologne, Bonn, Düsseldorf, Duisburg, Essen/Mülheim, Bochum, Dortmund, Bielefeld and Hannover.

The performance of many railway networks and the quality of service offered is becoming more and more critical. The main issues to be addressed are the increasing traffic volumes and making the best use of the available capacity, at the same time resolving train scheduling and management problems.This is an updated, revised and extended edition of 'Railway Timetable & Traffic', published in 2008. It describes the state-of-the-art methods of railway timetabling and optimisation, capacity estimation, train operations analysis and modelling, simulation, rescheduling and performance assessment. The intention is to stimulate their broader application in practice and to highlight current and future research areas. It is directed at academics, Masters and PhD students, as well as professionals from the railway industry. It will also be of interest to the public authorities that tender, monitor and perhaps fund railway service provision. The overall aim is to improve the attractiveness and efficiency of the train services which can be offered to the public.The key to achieving a higher efficiency and quality of train operations is an awareness of the impact of availability, reliability and robustness of the subsystems on train processes. A deeper insight into the probability of incidents and the propagation of train delays depends on a thorough analysis of real world railway operations and the feedback obtainable. This leads to an optimisation of the timetable and a network-wide improvement in traffic management performance. This know-how should increase the efficiency of the railway system, making it more attractive for regular, occasional and new customers, and ensure that the railways continue to innovate. They will then be able to make the maximum contribution possible to the transport needs of the future.

Hermed foreligger 4. udgave af den kommenterede lov om fragtaftaler. Strukturen er ændret lidt i forhold til de tidligere udgaver af lovkommentaren, så den er blevet nemmere at bruge som opslagsværk.Siden sidste udgave af lovkommentaren har Danmark tiltrådt en tillægsprotokol til CMR-konventionen omhandlende elektroniske fragtbreve ogkommunikation. Tillægsprotokollen er indarbejdet i CMR-loven, hvorfor nærværende lovkommentar indeholder helt nye bemærkninger til elektroniske fragtbreve og kommunikation.Fremstillingen vil primært sigte mod at redegøre for gældende dansk ret, men vil, ligesom tidligere udgaver, medtage såvel udenlandske retsafgørelse, som referencer til udenlandske forfattere. Gennemgangen af udenlandsk retspraksis er ikke udtømmende, men baseret på en gennemgang af domme optrykt primært i European Transport Law, Nordiske Domme i Søfartsanliggender samt retspraksis, der fremgår af udenlandsk retslitteratur. Domsgennemgangen er afsluttet ultimo april 2017, idet det bemærkes, at den seneste udgave af Nordiske Domme i Sjøfartsanliggender er årgang 2013.IndholdForordLov om fragtaftalerKapitel I.
