  • An Assessment of Park & Ride in Gothenburg
    HANDELSHÖGSKOLAN - GRADUATE SCHOOL MASTER THESIS Supervisor: Michael Browne Graduate School An assessment of Park & Ride in Gothenburg A case study on the effect of Park & Ride on congestion and how to increase its attractiveness Written by: Sélim Oucham Pedro Gutiérrez Touriño Gothenburg, 27/05/2019 Abstract Traffic congestion is with environmental pollution one of the main cost externalities caused by an increased usage of cars in many cities in the last decades. In many ways, traffic congestion impacts the everyday life of both drivers and citizens. In this thesis, the authors study how one solution designed to tackle congestion, the Park & Ride service, is currently used in the city of Gothenburg, where it is referred as Pendelparkering. This scheme allows commuters to park their car outside the city and then use public transport to their destination, thus avoiding having more cars in the city centre and reducing congestion. The goal is to know to what extent it helps solving the problem of congestion as well as how it can be ameliorated to make it more attractive. In order to do so, an analysis of the theory on Park & Ride and traffic congestion is performed, including a benchmark of three cities using the system and different views on its effectiveness in reducing congestion. Then, an empirical study relating to the City of Gothenburg is realized. The challenges around Park & Ride and the way different stakeholders organise themselves to ensure the service is provided in a satisfying way are thoroughly investigated. Interviews with experts and users, on- site observations and secondary data collection were used as different approaches to answer these questions.

Lynx often utilise their large prey for several days and therefore a special behaviour can be observed around a kill site. The aim of this study was to investigate behavioural characteristics of lynx around killed reindeer and examine factors that might affect the behaviour.

  • Göteborgsregionens Infarter
    Designprogram Göteborgsregionens infarter GÖTEBORGSREGIONENS INFARTER Ett samarbetsprojekt mellan Vägverket och de fem kommunerna Ale, Göteborg, Härryda, Mölndal och Partille. FÖRORD Denna bok ersätter den tidigare upplagan av Göteborgsregionens infarter ”Designprogram”. Boken presenterar resultatet av ett gränsöverskridande sam- arbete där ett stort antal aktörer satt sig tillsammans och tagit ansvaret för att förbättra trafikantens möjligheter till positiva upplevelser i den vägmiljö som går under namnet Göteborgsregionens infarter. Bakgrunden ligger bl a i ett princip- beslut att s.k. fula och störande miljöer ska åtgärdas. Dessa miljöer har inte alltid varit prioriterade i den allmänna vägplaneringen, trots att de har en väldigt stor betydelse för totalupplevelsen för bilföraren och dennes passagerare. Kunskaper om detta har under senare år medfört att man inom vägplaneringen mer och mer månar om att visa upp vackra och för orienterbarheten viktiga och betydelsefulla delar av stadslandskapet. Det har också inneburit att man i många projekt väljer att förbättra utformningen av den vägnära miljön. Ett antal personer har varit delaktiga i detta arbete med att diskutera och planera för mer attraktiva infarter. Denna bok är tänkt att tjäna som en vägledning och inspirationskälla, tillsammans med dess fem detaljstudier: Belysning, Rondeller, Bullerskydd, Portaler och Vägutrustning. De tar fasta på en helhet och ett försök till en arkitektonisk samordning mellan Göteborgsregionens infarter. Håkan Wennerström Vägdirektör Vägverket Region Väst

  • Draft Concept Paper: World Heritage Site Manager Workshop, Denmark 21 24 April 2009 Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit
    Draft Concept Paper: World Heritage Site Manager Workshop, Denmark 21 24 April 2009 Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit The Heritage Agency of Denmark has generously decided to host a workshop on the Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit (EoH). Representatives from all the Nordic sites are invited to attend. Nordic World Heritage Foundation will in cooperation with the Danish authorities organize this workshop in April 2009. The workshop is a result of the recommendations from the Periodic Reporting process. 1. Background and objectives The European Periodic Report was submitted to the World Heritage Committee at its 30th meeting in Vilnius 2006. The Nordic Baltic sub-regional report, annexed to the regional report, identifies a number of challenges for the implementation of the World Heritage Convention in the sub-region. Periodic Reporting is widely recognised as an important tool to strengthen and maintain the integrity and credibility of the World Heritage concept. The Periodic Reporting process has so far been successful in developing international cooperation and in providing an account of the status of World Heritage sites. This workshop follows the recommendations from the meeting between the Nordic and Baltic States Parties in 2007 (see Annex I Recommendations from the meeting on Periodic Reporting, Helsinki 3-4 May 2007 no: 6, 7 & 12). The World Heritage Committee will examine the Periodic Reporting follow-up activities for the European region at its 34th session in 2010. The Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit contains twelve practical tools. Although it has been developed with a focus on natural properties, the initiative also has potential value as a tool to assist site managers of cultural properties.
