• WEASTFlows partnership meeting

Lille 12th December of 2013

Action 1 – Infrastructure assessment


Reminder on key objectives

of deliverable 2

Application form A1:

• Analysis of the sustainability of the existing

transport axis

• Analysis of the potential connections/

synergies between the partners regions

considering their economic features and logistics

flows


Methodology

Work based on GIS technology :

• Grid methodology Cross analysis of the GIS infrastructure database

• Identification, selection and analysis of indicators to characterize the sustainability of north-west european freight transport infrastructures

Quantitative analysis of infrastructure

• Cross analysis of Action 2 and Action 4 results (level of use and flows analysis)

Actions 2 and 4 results’s analysis


Focus on deliverable 2 –

The grid analysis


Methodology


What is a grid analysis?

• Grid methodology Cross analysis of the GIS infrastructure database

From a NUTS3 division… …to a grid

A division on squares of

800 km² (about 500 miles)

corresponding to the area

of the smallest german

Nuts3.


Advantages and aims of a grid

analysis : weastflows case

GR

ID A

NA

LYSI

S ADVANTAGES

Transcend administrative boundaries

Provide an homogeneous data repository

Allow to compare and combined easily the data

AIMS

Show the infrastructures concentrations

Pre-identified bottlenecks

Highlight the continuities and discontinuities of the infrastructure network

Make the cross data analysis easier


Grid analysis : first results

Inland waterways concentration



Railways concentration



Roads concentration


Focus on deliverable 2

Quantitative analysis


Methodology


Why define indicators?

To complete the map approach with quantitative data

To compare and analyze the area of interest with objective data

To highlight objectively strengths and shortcomings of the network

in terms of sustainability

For which area?

North West Europe area

Regional level (areas of interest)

• Identification, selection and analysis of indicators to characterize the sustainability of north-west european freight transport infrastructures



Methodology for indicators

selection

• The starting points to define and select the indicators are:

• the suitability of the indicators to highlight the potential

sustainability (or not) of the existing infrastructure network

• the atlas map

• the availability and the accessibility of the data in the GIS

(easy to collect and easy to load)


Partnership work

Step 1: Dublin workshop: presentation and discussion about a first

selection of indicators

Step 2: feedback from partners strongly involved in Action 1 (MWRA,

LOOM, Mobycon, SEStran, TUDOR) to highlight:

• The lack of indicators regarding the first selection

• The relevancy of the indicators selected

Step 3: AURH finalization of the indicators list


Indicators synthesis

Type of object Analysis objectives Indicators

Network (inland waterway,

railway, road)

• Accessibility and connexion • Continuities and

discontinuities • Infrastructure gauge

• Part of main european network (TEN-T) • Network electrification • Part of motorways, dual carriageway and

freeway (roads) • Number of lanes (roads) • Load gauge (railways) • Number of tracks (railways) • CEMT class (inland waterways) • Number of locks (inland waterways)

Nodes (Airport, port,

railway terminal)

• Accessibility and connexion • Intermodality

• Level of intermodality • Accessibility to strategic network (road,

railways and inland waterways) • Numbers of major european nodes • Ferry connexions (port nodes)


Example of area of interest’s identity

card


Next step


Work on progress:

Reception of Loom and SEStran data’s

Implementation in the GIS Database

Next step:

Crossing and analysis of the data

• Cross analysis of Action 2 and Action 4 results (level of use and flows analysis)



• Grid methodology - finalized Cross analysis of the GIS infrastructure database

• Identification and selection of indicators to characterize the north-west europe freight transport infrastructures – on process


• Cross analysis of Action 2 and Action 4 results (level of use and flows analysis) – to pursue


Work on progress


October 2013 : new TEN-T map
