What do we mean by customised infrastructure?
Making exceptions from the traditional road design practices to facilitate
transport efficiency in a larger area, by enabling transport efficient
urban planning.

Custom infrastructure guidelines project
• There is a lot of pressure on the Swedish Transport Administration
from the municipalities.
• The Swedish Transport Administration in Stockholm: Not possible to
significantly reduce traffic congestion by building more roads.
Instead, we need to make the best of the current road system (and
optimise other transport modes).
• A project was initiated.

Master plan – grey = ”urban roads”

• The aim was to create guidelines for:
– Which roads needs to be separated to secure high capacity and
resilience in rush hour.
– Which roads can be customised to allow for a more transport efficient
transport system overall.

Background documentation
Transport system
• Which functions must the road section provide.
– Long-distance transports/commuting?
– Transports of dangerous goods?
– Connections to important ports and terminals etc.?
Urban development
• Strategic city plans
– Clear land use planning
– Strategic mobility planning
– A regional outlook

Choose direction in two steps (step 1)
Road administration should set rough boundaries for what can be
allowed from a national standpoint.
• Passability and accessibility must be secured for the largest roads.
• More detailed system analysis for complex networks.
• Transit-oriented development should lead to higher transport
efficiency

Choose direction in two steps (step 2)
Local impacts
• Health impacts (road noise and air quality)
• Social sustainability
• Potential for new housing
• Etc.

When these two steps of analysis have been carried out, a basic
direction can be decided on.
Costs and benefits needs to be calculated throughout the process.

Concluding remarks
• Early cooperation is needed
• It is not possible to make decisions without proper background
material
• Possibilities for positive effects on both local and national level
