  • Applying Life Cycle Assessment to Analyze the Environmental Sustainability of Public Transit Modes for the City of Toronto
    Applying life cycle assessment to analyze the environmental sustainability of public transit modes for the City of Toronto by Ashton Ruby Taylor A thesis submitted to the Department of Geography & Planning in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada September, 2016 Copyright © Ashton Ruby Taylor, 2016 Abstract One challenge related to transit planning is selecting the appropriate mode: bus, light rail transit (LRT), regional express rail (RER), or subway. This project uses data from life cycle assessment to develop a tool to measure energy requirements for different modes of transit, on a per passenger-kilometer basis. For each of the four transit modes listed, a range of energy requirements associated with different vehicle models and manufacturers was developed. The tool demonstrated that there are distinct ranges where specific transit modes are the best choice. Diesel buses are the clear best choice from 7-51 passengers, LRTs make the most sense from 201-427 passengers, and subways are the best choice above 918 passengers. There are a number of other passenger loading ranges where more than one transit mode makes sense; in particular, LRT and RER represent very energy-efficient options for ridership ranging from 200 to 900 passengers. The tool developed in the thesis was used to analyze the Bloor-Danforth subway line in Toronto using estimated ridership for weekday morning peak hours. It was found that ridership across the line is for the most part actually insufficient to justify subways over LRTs or RER. This suggests that extensions to the existing Bloor-Danforth line should consider LRT options, which could service the passenger loads at the ends of the line with far greater energy efficiency.

  • Operational Transitions in Railway Infrastructure
    Operational transitions in railway infrastructure I II Master thesis Operational transitions in railway infrastructure Maurits de Hek 4468384 MSc. Transport, Infrastructure & Logistics Keywords: Train operations, railway infrastructure, human factors, transitions, train service disruptions, automatic train protection, vertical track alignment, train dispatching, power supply system Hardinxveld-Giessendam 03-09-2020 Graduation committee: Prof. R.M.P. Goverde – TU Delft Dr. J.H. Baggen – TU Delft Dr. M.L.C. de Bruijne – TU Delft Ing. F. Bokhorst – ProRail III IV Preface Terwijl de kinderen in mijn straat hun ongewoon lange schoolvrije periode gebruikten om de sloot voor mijn huis uit te baggeren, wat de buurt vervulde met een enorme moeraslucht, en visten naar rivierkreeftjes, die daar niet horen te zitten, zat ik op mijn kamer te schrijven aan mijn afstudeerrapport. Dag in, dag uit herhaalde dit tafereel zich. Soms had ik de neiging om me bij hen te voegen, zeker als de zinnen met moeite uit mijn vingers kwamen. Het feit dat dit rapport af is en voor u ligt, is daarom niet te danken aan mijn eigen kracht, maar door de gemeenschappelijke inspanning van velen die mij de afgelopen maanden ondersteund hebben. Dit rapport is tot stand gekomen dankzij de onbezoldigde hulp van vele mensen. Mijn meest nabije begeleiders, John Baggen, Frank Bokhorst en Mark de Bruijne wil ik hartelijk bedanken voor hun grote inzet en betrokkenheid bij het afstuderen. Eveneens wil ik Rob Goverde bedanken voor de taak die hij op zich heeft genomen als voorzitter van de afstudeercommissie. Jullie aanbevelingen en aanmoedigingen hebben mij geholpen om dit rapport te brengen tot waar het nu is.
