Häll Department of Science and Technology (ITN), Linköping University, Norrköping, Sweden Abstract This paper concerns operational planning of door-to-door transportation systems for the elderly and/or disabled, who often need a more flexible transportation system than the rest of the population. Highly flexible, but very costly direct transportation is often offered as a complement to standard fixed route public transport service. In the integrated dial-a-ride problem (IDARP), these modes of transport are combined and certain legs of the passengers journeys may be performed with the fixed route public transport system.

  • Bergensbanen Mot Nye Høyder
    Jernbane- magasinetNR. 1/2020 Vi kjører en av verdens flotteste togturer, og skal sørge for at Bergens- banen blir enda mer ettertraktet. ARNE FOSEN, konserndirektør Vy tog Bergensbanen mot nye høyder Jernbanedirektoratets ferske perspektiv- analyse viser at fjerntrafikken minst vil doble seg når både Ringeriksbanen og dobbeltspor mellom Bergen og Voss er bygd. VESTFOLDBANEN BANE NOR NTP Raskere og billigere Kutter kostnader Mer ut av hver krone Det aktuelle bildet Tøft over fjellet Uvær, mye snø og rasfare førte til at Bergensbanen i februar ble mer stengt enn på lenge. Ved Hallingskeid gikk det et stort snøras som tok med seg både snøoverbygget og kontaktledningsanlegget øst for Kleven bru. De ublide vær- forholdene og rasfaren gjorde at banen ble stengt i mer enn to døgn. Og kort tid etter kjørte et tog seg fast i store snømasser ved Upsete vest for Myrdal stasjon. En stor redningsaksjon ble satt i gang, og toget ble etter hvert frigjort fra snø- massene. Det ble likevel stående inne i Gravhalsen tunnel gjennom hele natten mens snørydding og annen rydding etter raset pågikk. Godstoget på bildet passerer Ustaoset kort tid etter at banen igjen var klargjort for togtrafikk.

Norland Ida Christine Riege 3 Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to explore the possible opportunities the Northern Jæren region has for future developments with regards to residential housings, and the location of industries. The compact city concept has become a symbol of sustainable urban development, and the concept is prevalent throughout the thesis. Firstly, the thesis will explore the background for choosing the theme, and how the concept of a compact city has grown in importance with regards to sustainability.

  • Ulriken Tunnel
    www.aplitop.com APLITOP Case Study TITLE Ulriken Tunnel USER AND COMPANY Company: AZVI Norge Web: www.azvi.es Location: Bergen (Norway) Name: Joan González Pi Position: Surveying Manager / BIM Manager E-mail: [email protected] Main activities: The Azvi Group is divided into four business areas: construction, concessions, real estate developments and rail transport. It has a presence in Europe, America and the Middle East. PROJECT CHALLENGES Azvi has signed the contract with Bane NOR (Norwegian public railway infrastructure manager) to carry out the rehabilitation of the old Ulriken railway tunnel in Bergen, within a period of 29 months. This tunnel was built in the 1960s and runs parallel to the new Ulriken tunnel. The rehabilitation will consist of the widening of the tunnel section, at different points along the 7.6 km length. In order to carry it out, 38,000 m3 of rock must be excavated. In the central 6.2 km of the tunnel, it will be necessary to blast more than 100 sections without dismantling the track. This is a great challenge for Azvi, for which it has designed an innovative technical proposal, which has been highly valued by Bane NOR. The project is totally designed in a BIM environment, which information is available mostly in IFC and XML formats. The rehabilitation consists of expanding the tunnel section and subsequently covering it, leaving a space between the waterproofing and the rock to be able to drain the leaks from the mountain. By having several layers, the tunnel section is a challenge for the control of the execution of the work.
