  • Vienna's Path to Sustainable Transport, International Journal of Sustainable Transportation, 11:4, 257- 271, DOI: 10.1080/15568318.2016.1251997
    Vienna’s Path to Sustainable Transport by Ralph Buehler, John Pucher, and Alan Altshuler Abstract Vienna, Austria reduced the car share of trips by a third between 1993 and 2014: from 40% to 27%. The key to Vienna’s success has been a coordinated package of mutually reinforcing transport and land-use policies that have made car use slower, less convenient, and more costly, while improving conditions for walking, cycling, and public transport. During 32 in-person interviews in Vienna in May 2015, a wide range of politicians, transport planners, and academics almost unanimously identified the expansion of the U-Bahn (metro) and parking management as the most important policies accounting for the reduction in car mode share since 1993. Implementation of sustainable transport policies in Vienna has been a long-term, multi- staged process requiring compromises, political deals, and coalition-building among political parties and groups of stakeholders. This consensual approach to policy development has been time-consuming. Vienna has not been the first city to introduce any particular policy, but it has masterfully adopted successful policies from other cities. The continuity of Social Democratic governments in Vienna since 1945 has provided a crucial political basis for long-term implementation. The Greens have vigorously pushed for accelerating implementation of sustainable transport policies since becoming part of the ruling coalition government in 2010. The progressive political environment in Vienna has been essential to its increasingly sustainable transport system. Other major cities in Western Europe have also reduced the share of trips by car since 1990. Together with Vienna, they provide useful lessons for other cities throughout the world on how to reduce car dependence.

    Sofia, May, 2007 POREWORD In 1941 the National Assembly passed a bill (SG, 12.06.1 94 1) and in 1942 the King Boris 111 signed a decree (4.02.1942) for the foundation of a Higher Technical School (HTS) with two faculties: Civil Engineering and Architecture, and Mechanical Engineering. This laid the foundation of the higher education in the field of architecture, civil engineering and geodesy in our country. In 1945 HTS was transformed into State Polytechnics, wherefrom the Institute of Civil Engineering (ICE) derived in 1953. In 1963 ICE was renamed Higher Institute of Civil Engineering MICE). Ln its turn, HICE was renamed Higher Institute of Architecture and Civil Engineering (HIACE) in 1977. In 1995, with a resolution of the National Assembly, HIACE was transformed into University of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Geodesy (UACEG). During all this time the University realises a large- scale training and research activities. This Jubilee Scientific Conference is organised on the occasion of the ~55~anniversary of the higher education in architecture, civil engineering and geodesy in Bulgaria. It comprises almost all scientific fields covered in the University. More than 180 Papers wilI be presented and more than 276 authors Erom the country and abroad will participate in the conference. The international participation is significant, which we regard as recognition of the prestige of our University. Papers will be published on CD.
