3 1. Introduction 2
4 Increase of GHG Emission from Developing Countries Rapid increase of greenhouse gas emission from developing countries Transport sector is a dominant source of GHG emission in developing countries However Financial constraint of the government Complex and slow administrative procedure Lack of connection among several public transport modes Lack of human resources Political intervention Complicated land acquisition process 3
5 Research Objectives Potentials of Multi-Modal Centre (MMC) in developing countries Railway network in urban areas in some developing countries which is usually not utilized fully Intensive bus and paratransit network However, those are not managed in an integrated manner Research Objectives to propose a multi-modal transport centre (MMC) development which is affordable, implementable, effective and socially acceptable to alleviate traffic congestion and to reduce emission of GHGs by integrating railway, bus, other public transport services and non-motorized transport to conduct a case study taking a railway station in Colombo Metropolitan Area (CMA) as a example to examine economic, financial social and environmental viabilities 4
6 2. Transport in Colombo Metropolitan Area 5
7 Colombo Metropolitan Area Western Province Largest province in Sri Lanka including Colombo and the capital city of Sri Jayewardenepura Population: 5.8 million 3,694km 2 44% of National GDP Colombo Metropolitan Area Population: 3.68 million 996km 2 Colombo Municipal Council 0.55 million, 40km 2 6
8 Road Transport in Colombo Morning Traffic Congestion School Traffic 7
9 Railway in Colombo Deteriorated train 8
10 Bus Transport in Colombo Bus Terminal School Bus 9
11 Population Growth Patterns Population is increasing in the areas to the east of CMC, while the growth rate is less in the CMC area This can be explained by the changes in land use in CMC inner city area commercial activity is increasing and in the suburbs to the east, residential activity is increasing Annual Growth Rate Negombo Colombo and Coastal Area Decreasing Avissawella Colombo Suburbs Increasing Source: DCS Calculated by CoMTrans Inner-Coastal area 10
12 Urban Development Plans/Projects Concentration of mixed development projects in Colombo center Relocation of government agencies and Defence complex in Battaramulla Colombo Concentration of Many Mixed Development Project Battaramulla Relocation of Government Offices Source: UDA 11
13 Motorization Unit: 1,000 Passengers per day, Both Direction 2,500 2,000 1,500 Historical data for passenger flow at CMC boundary ( ) 1,679 1,697 2,066 Pubic Transport (Bus and Railway) are losing their modal share. Average Annual Growth Ratio (AAGR) % 1,000 1, % % 33% 42% Private Modes are significantly increasing. 4.2% 0 26% 42% * Private Bus Rail All modes: 2.2% * Total passengers at CMC boundary at all survey location was 2.1 million passengers per day (both direction). For the comparison purpose, survey locations surveyed in 85, 95 and 04 were selected. 12
14 Rapid Increase of Private Vehicles Number of Vehicles* in Western Province (in 1,000) AAGR = 8.0% The number of vehicles increased a factor of 2.5 in 12 years. Motorcycles and 3 wheelers showed significant surge in the number. *The number of motor vehicles with valid revenue licenses. 13
15 Travel Speed (Evening Peak Hour/ Outflow) Source: Travel Speed Survey by GPS tracking data ( ) CoMTrans 14
16 Estimated Current GHG Emission CO 2 Emission estimation in the Western Province Results of CO 2 emission in 2013 estimated by developed model is almost same as one estimated from fuel consumption data, which is divided proportionally by number of vehicle. Model Estimation Model Estimation Note: Vehicle emission: Estimated based on the fuel consumption of whole Sri Lanka in transportation sector of SLSEA by using the ratio of vehicle registration number in whole Sri Lanka and the Western Province Railway emission : Estimated based on the fuel consumption of railway of whole Sri Lanka by using the ratio of travel distance of railway in whole Sri Lanka and the Western Province Number of hybrid vehicle: 15,561 (Dec. 2013) 15
17 milion t-co2/year Estimation on Future GHG Emission GHG emission reductions by low carbon scenario options Infrastructure development/improvement : C2 scenario (Intensive public transport system development with ERP) will achieve the lowest emission. (0.93 Mton CO 2 reduction in 2035, 11.3% of BAU_SQ) Hybrid Vehicles: 0.38 Mton CO 2 reduction in 2035 from above option results Fuel Switch : 0.66 Mton CO 2 reduction in 2035 from above option results Bus/Truck regulation enforcement : 0.12 Mton CO 2 reduction in 2035 from above option results milion t-co2/year 10.0 CO2 emission by Transport Scenario 0.8 CO2 reduction by Scenarios 8.0 DN SQ 0.6 Hybrid car promotion 6.0 A1 A2 0.4 Fuel switch promotion 4.0 C1 C2 0.2 Bus/Truck regulation enforcement

21 3. Preliminary Development Plan of Multi-Modal Transport Centres 20
22 Development Concept of MMC Mode Integration 21
23 Mode Integration Pilot Project Mode integration between Bus and Railway services will be studied at a station in order to promote public transport for low carbon transport scenario. Physical / Operational Integrations will be considered. Physical Integration Relocation of; - Bus departure/ arrival, waiting area, shelters - Walkways, - Sings and marking, - Railway Station facilities/entrance, Creation of; - Non-fare box revenue generation facilities - Drop-off/pick-up area for para-transit modes etc. Mode Integration (Bus-Rail) Operational Integration Coordination of; - Fare / ticket integration, - Coordinated time table and operation hours between bus and railway services, - Bus route rationalization (feeder services), - Passenger information provision etc. 22

27 Situation Analysis on Ragama Station [Main/Puttalam Line] Positive Features / Potentials Current Access Mode Share: Bus 43.7%, Walk 46.7% Intersection of Main Line and Puttalam Line Sri Lanka Railway s lands are available. Potential for population growth Northern Expressway will be located nearby the city (Exact alignment: to be confirmed). The station is Located between Kandy Road and Negombo Road. UDA wish to development the city and around the station. Ragama Hospital is located nearby the station. Ragama Bus Terminal (For Colombo) Negative Features / Constraints Currently, only a small land is used for the bus terminal, and Bus Terminal for Colombo is 300 m away from the station It is necessary to find future bus passengers who use Ragama Station. 26
28 Ragama Station: Existing Condition Road in front of the Station Existing Railway Station Building Railway Facilities Existing Bus Stand (Land surrounding the railway station is used for bus stand) Boundaries of Railway Land Bus Stop next to the Station Station Buses, Cars, and Pedestrians are mixed around the station and the roads. Existing Bus Terminal (for Colombo Pedestrian s Direction) safety should be secured. 350m away from the Train Station Appropriate bus terminal and circulation should be introduced. Park Market 27
