  • Centro Di Ricerca Trasporti Università Degli Studi Di Genova
    Centro di Ricerca Trasporti Università degli Studi di Genova Impianti speciali: ruolo e caratteristiche Riccardo Genova Visita tecnica del 6 febbraio Mobilità e trasporti La progettazione di nuove reti di trasporto pubblico e la trasformazione di quelle esistenti realizzano gli obiettivi di sostenibilità attraverso: riqualificazione delle città e dei centri storici; impiego di veicoli per il trasporto pubblico a grande capacità di trasporto ed ecologici; riduzione della mobilità privata. Fondamentali per l’ottenimento di tali obiettivi sono l’integrazione modale e la fruibilità del trasporto pubblico Integrazione ed interoperabilità Lo scambio modale deve essere semplice ed immediato. Sono necessari: orari integrati; sistema unico tariffario. A tale scopo vengono istituite Agenzie per la Mobilità cui delegare le funzioni di: pianificazione; progettazione e controllo del TPL. Il concetto di interoperabilità non è da ricondursi al mero aspetto fisico (come i sistemi tram treno) ma a tutti gli strumenti di mobilità (biglietti elettronici, sistemi informativi) Accessibilità ed ultimo miglio L’accessibilità deve essere valutata come elemento di efficienza e qualità: esigenze di sicurezza e contrasto all’evasione mal si conciliano con la fruibilità degli impianti appesantendo i costi di gestione. Le moderne tecnologie consentono di conciliare gli aspetti legati al governo della mobilità (AVM-AVL, biglietto elettronico, informazione real time all’utenza su pannelli e paline, APP e servizi Open Data). Gli impianti speciali trovano applicazione per ultimo miglio, tragitti condivisi (anche nelle stazioni) con persone con difficoltà motoria e con passeggino, percorsi a profilo planoaltimetrico complesso. Tipologie di impianti Gli impianti speciali trovano impiego, per loro natura, sia per brevi spostamenti che per implementare veri e propri «assi attrezzati» ad elevata capacità di trasporto: ascensori verticali o inclinati; sistemi traslatori-elevatori; funicolari; funivie urbane o rurali; sistemi a spintore; sistemi a cremagliera; people mover.

I dati raccolti non sono certo esaurienti: sono i minimi sufficienti a evidenziare vistose anomalie o contraddizioni che spingono a suggerire come abbandonare “l’era dell’ignoranza ingiustificata” e come delineare una idonea riorganizzazione istituzionale e urbanistica.

Against the background of the related challenges worldwide, this year’s thematic emphasis for UNACLA is placed on urban mobility and an exchange of experiences for SNAPSHOTS establishing effective public transport systems as a key element for sustainable urban development. “ United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-HABITAT) P.O. Box 30030 00100 Nairobi GPO KENYA Tel: 254-020-7623120 (Central Office) [email protected] www.unhabitat.org Printed in Nairobi, Kenya 2011/2012 This publication was made possible through funding support from the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida). This illustrated report provides a rich collection of images of sustainable urban transport and mobility initiatives from cities around the world which are represented in the United Nations Advisory Committee of Local Authorities (UNACLA). The collection considers the current transport situation and challenges faced by each city - this includes high levels of energy consumption, carbon dioxide emissions, congestion, road casualties, urban sprawl, and social exclusion. The report also describes how these cities have implemented creative solutions aimed at improved urban planning, traffic demand management, public transit, non-motorized transport, streetscape design, road planning, low-emission vehicles, and logistics planning. The ultimate goal for each of these cities is to improve the quality of urban life for its citizens. The intentions of this report are to share, inform and hopefully inspire a wide variety of readers.
