13 EU White Paper

14 Italy s case Limited Traffic Zones (LTZ) 13

15 A typical Italian town... 14

16 applies Z.T.L. for traffic management Based on Italian road traffic provisions codice della strada Each community is entitled to spatially define Z.T.L areas and to apply time-based regulations for entering these zones The regulations for entering the zones may include categories and levels of vehicle classes, emission classes and commercial elements such as entrance fees 15

17 and enforces systematically! Z.T.L. is either enforced manually by the police, or By means of a fully automated consisting of ANPR cameras installed at the access points into the zones and a network linking these stations with the back office And enforced system vehicle licence plates are validated systematically, checking whether entry permit complies with procedures and road traffic provisions are respected a fine is issued to vehicle owners in case of non-compliance 16

18 Leading supplier for 32 Italian cities with 301 checkpoints 17

19 How a typical Z.T.L checkpoint looks like? Not very spectacular Single- or multi-lane surveillance with fully automated number plate recognition systems (ANPR cameras) Cremona Bergamo 18

20 Define Z.T.L. rules to achieve transport policy goals According to vehicle and vehicle emission class, based on the number plate Variable, according to defined week days or day- and night-time For certain access zones only For single or repeated access (per day/week/month) Either free of charge or for a fee (City toll, congestion charge) Timely or spatial confined restraints (major events for instance) Access coupled with real time air quality (limit exceedance of PM 10 for instance) Exemptions possible (for disabled persons for example, or e-vehicles) 19

21 The legal basis for Z.T.L. Italy is the sole European country providing a legal basis on national level to introduce zones limited to traffic in urban areas and to enforce infringements (penalties/fines) Codice della Strada (road traffic provisions), as the basic legislative piece. Regulates next to speeding, incorrect parking, passing red traffic lights, drink driving also the disciplinary proceedings for accessing a Z.T.L without authorization Homologation of Z.T.L systems on basis of centralized certification assures respect of Data Protection Directive (95/46/EC) No discriminatory treatment of residents and foreigners (cross-border enforcement). 20

22 Benefits of Z.T.L. for a city Reduction of motorized private transport, less congestion, time-reliable accessibility for eligible motorists More available parking lots for local residents and increased use of public transport Reduced air pollution and noise; residential environment of improved living conditions Attractive ground zones by dismantled traffic infrastructure and restoration measures Experience in Italy with Z.T.L systems has shown access zones into city centres regarded positively in most respects and not perceived as a limitation in mobility Manufacturing, maintenance and operating costs commonly pay off the first year of operation, on the sales of entry permits and the penalties imposed for not having any 21

23 Z.T.L. vs Parking management Coexistence or contradiction? Both traffic control systems (Z.T.L. and Parking Management) cover different fields of application (traffic in flow <-> parking). A Z.T.L. does not replace Parking management and vice versa Combination of both measures is useful A Z.T.L. with a reasonable framework considers city-specific initial prerequisites and entry requirements a fine is issued to vehicle owners in case of non-compliance Parking management in Italy follows a categorization of parking areas ( colour theory ) not marked parking space -> usable for all with a valid entry permit yellow marked parking space -> reserved for the category of residential neighbours Blue marked parking space -> Short-term parking zone (payable) 22

24 From business case to solution 23

25 From business case to solution 24

26 Considerations 25

27 Considerations Assumption: Conventional challenges are valid Scarcity of resources, Urbanization, new technologies, Two topics through all perspectives; environment & volume (scale of infrastructure, traffic volume) Traffic infrastructure shapes mobility. Mobility shapes quality of life. Traffic infrastucture is the basis of an integrated single market. Level of Service & Pricing High/Adequate service of (traffic) infrastructure has a value. Pricing as the finetuning tool. Challenges do not stop at institutional boundaries and national borders. 26

33 Applications. Single Access Charge Day Pass Ticket Access Restriction Time Based Charge Low Emission Zone Any passage counts e.g. peak hour charging. Cut peak traffic. First access per day into the zone is charged. No through traffic in zone. Access permissions for selected users. Restricted access. The longer the stay, the higher the charge. No long time parkers. Charge up to the emission class Shift to green transport. Reduction of traffic volume, congestion, pollution, travel time. Increase of accessibility of the zone, income for the municipality. 32

46 Our Mission: We make your traffic flow. Better traffic control. Our toll collection systems around the world intelligently guide traffic. They increase road safety and reduce traffic obstructions. At the same time, they enable usage-based charging of tolls via pre-paid or post-paid models. Higher quality of life in cities. Urban road user charging, limited access zones, low emission zones and dynamic parking prevent traffic jams and unnecessary driving. They also reduce noise pollution. In urban transportation areas, we support road user charging and urban access and parking. Greater safety and environmental protection. Incident detection systems, video-based traffic sensors and multi-functional telematics platforms improve road safety. They help using existing infrastructure more efficiently and lower environmental impact. Our on-board units consume very little energy and produce half as much CO 2 during production and packaging than comparable products. 45

54 Situation/Challenges for cities 53

55 Situation. Cities and communities in transition and competition. Centre Regions/ Interurban areas. Are we different?. What are our strengths?. What do we want?.. What are we opting for? Commuter belt/suburbs Centre Migration into cities, urbanization: Centralization and withdrawal Commuter of infrastructure belt/suburbs from regions Rather a fact than a possible development Infrastructure scarcity, limitations of city spaces Exploding, growing, shrinking cities Competition: Position as business location; attractiveness triggered by economic situation and labour market Criteria for quality of life and infrastructure (Mercer study); power and water supply, communication, public transport, fluent traffic, airport, spatial and traffic planning, interaction of private/public sector Disparity of mobility: Basis and engine of economy, social cohesion Traffic, emissions, limitation of quality of life 54

56 Strategy, what to do. Regulative framework for local road user charging and access schemes.. City as a system; energy management, water, waste, assisted living, traffic management. Aspects; political, functional (system), environmental, human, economic. Role of the government is to operate the system and to organize smart technology.. MOBILITY o To decouple growth of cities and resource consumption o To use digital data o Incenting people to use environmentally friendly modes o Cross-regional land use planning o Three tuning levels for decision makers Manage supply Manage human demand Make infrastructure adoptive. Short distances. Trip planning reliability. To contribute to a cleaner environment. Willing to pay for adequate level of service and better quality of life Local Empowerment: Self-definition, Positioning Fiscal powers for road user charges.. leads to improvement of the price/ performance ratio of the public service.. user acceptance through transparancy and use of funds (... As important as revenue neutrality OECD/ITF 2010) 55
