Redesigning transportation in residential areas - for liveable neighbourhoods with low energy

consumption

Two projects supported by

PRO.MOTION – Sustainable mobility at home

ADD HOME – Mobility Management and Housing


PRO.MOTION - Redesigning transportation in residential areas with low energy consumption

ADD HOME - Mobility Management for housing areas - from car-dependency to free choice

• runs from Nov. 2007 – Oct. 2010• has 18 partners• concentrates on applications and training for

energy agencies, municipalities and housing related companies

• runs from Dec. 2006 – Nov. 2009• has 6 partners• deals with framework analysis/best practise as well

as demonstrations and training for energy agencies, municipalities and housing related companies

PRO.MOTION and ADD HOME – in a nutshell


• High potential – many transport related decision are taken at home!

The idea behind PRO.MOTION and ADD HOME

Source: Municipality of Graz – mobility behaviour of people living in Graz 03/04



• High effect – large energy saving potential within the topic of housing and mobility!




• High effect – large energy saving potential within the topic of housing and mobility!

• High suitability – many car-trips can easily be substituted by PT, cycling and walking!



• Equal conditions for modal choice at home

• Reduction of traffic performance of individuals

• Ownership at offers, processes and services for sustainable mobility

• Residential areas with high living quality:

Green spaces, space for social activities/exchange and sound neighbourly relations

The PRO.MOTION and ADD HOME objectives


• Improve accessibility by infrastructure and organisational measures

• Raise awareness and correct subjective perception

• Create ownership and motivate people to change habits

and…

• Use a bottom up approach: working groups with residents, housing companies, transport providers, etc…

The PRO.MOTION and ADD HOME approach


• Inhabitants• Construction companies• Property management companies• Tenant associations• Public Transport Providers• Management / Energy Agencies• Technical staff of local and regional authorities• Decision and policy makers at local, regional

and national level• Spatial planners and architects• Future personnel working in the field of mobility

and housing

The target groups


PRO.MOTION• Surveys on mobility behaviour and specific

mobility demands at application sites• Establishment of stakeholder groups• Setting up LA strategies in Ile-de-France and

Midi-Pyreenes

ADD HOME• Best Practise databank on existing good

actions for sustainable mobility housing projects

• Analysis on legal preconditions for sustainable transport solutions

Concept phase and analysis


Surveys on “Mobility patterns and behaviour” and

“Mobility needs and wishes”. The results are:

• Registration of mobility behaviour and patterns before applications begin at each site

• Knowledge of specific demands for mobility services and accessibility of the inhabitants of all 14 sites

• Knowledge of attitudes to foreseen actions of PRO.MOTION

• Identifying the target groups within each complete sample

→ The results show a heterogeneous picture and each application have different conditions concerning mobility patterns and mobility demands.

PRO. MOTION concept phase

Anna, I would rather present some details on the results than talking about what has been gained in general. But we can do this after sending the presentation and bringing the most topical one to San Sebastian then....


A state of the art survey on integrating MM in LA21 showed:• LA21 is a source of inspiration in participation/counselling • Success is depending on a strong policy aimed for

sustainable transport and interaction of transport planning and urban projects

• Mobility management is poor in LA21 due to– the approach: knowledge of offers, demand and

participation differs from other projects / programmes– municipalities lack tools on MM in residential areas– LA21 does not include systematic approaches like

travel plans or marketing approaches like mobility agents

→ PRO.MOTION will result in a specific guide with recommendations for municipalities and place MM in the framework of LA21

PRO. MOTION concept phase


Analysis of building codes, spatial planning laws, legal

settings for construction and renovation subsidies…

Some good examples:

• Berlin: no obligations on car parking spaces

• SI / BG: max. distance between flat/house and next PT stop

• DE: mandatory bicycle parking facilities for all constructions and definition of number, access and configuration

• SI: priority list for transport planning concerning modes of transport: walking, bicycling, PT, motorised transport

• AT: gratification on building bicycle parking facilities and integration of CarSharing offers

ADD HOME analysis

Some suggestions for improvement:

• Car parking spaces

Introducing a max. No. of parking spaces / unit

Deregulation of mandatory car parking spaces

• Bicycle parking facilities

Copy/paste of German/OÖ example to building codes

Definition of quality standards

• Spatial development

Constructions only inside the catchement area of PT

Definition of quality standards

• Subsidies for construction and renovation of houses

Integration of positive criteria for bicycle parking facilities, proximity to PT stops, dense residential areas, CarSharing

Cancel mandatory car parking spaces

ADD HOME analysis


The ADD HOME Code of practise – Best Practise

The project performed an online-survey on good examples in the

fields of:

• Public transport in residential areas

• Cycling and walking in residential areas

• Car-related services and measures in residential areas

• Mobility information, organisation and co-ordination

• Mobility issues in the context of car-free or car-reduced and ecological housing

• Miscellaneous

63 Case Studies are documented!

Among PRO.MOTION’s / ADD HOME’s applications are:

Infrastructure planning / organisational measures:

• bicycle paths to neighbouring city districts, Riga, LV

• B+R and P+R facilities, Györ, HU

• CarSharing in residential areas, Genoa, IT

Change of people’s perceptions and awareness

• city-wide car pooling scheme in Sofia, BU

• educational programmes in schools in Martin, SK

• Neighbourhood events on mobility effects, Bregenz, AT

Motivate to test sustainable transport means / services

• competition for design of a PT-stop in Graz, AT

• participative workshops creating solutions to sustainable transportation goals in DK and Spain

• PT tickets & CarSharing offers for tenants, Bielefeld, DE

The application projects


PRO.MOTION and ADD HOME include training for

their target groups to transfer gained knowledge in 19

sessions:

• Target group tailored: meet the needs of the respective audience

• Mix the target group: some trainings gathering all stakeholders

• Give theoretical and practical input: teach background and experiences

• Integrate practical sessions: use the gained knowledge and start planning own projects

• E-learning: establish self-study materials for further education online

PRO.MOTION and ADD HOME training events

→ Look up where the next training takes place!http://www.add-home.eu/Vorlage.phtml?ID=743&id=743


PRO.MOTION

• Recommendations for planners, developers, construction companies and tenants on

– how to improve sustainable transport using MM

– how to save energy on transport at home and to demand MM offers

ADD HOME

• ADD HOME training events

• Guidelines for followers on ADD HOME demonstrations and training events

• ADD HOME final brochure
