Tis is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. A hedonic model for estimating the efects of transit systems on real estate values is specifed and calibrated for the city of Naples. Te model is used to estimate the external benefts concerning property values which may be attributed to the Naples metro at the present time and in two future scenarios. Te results show that only high-frequency metro lines have appreciable efects on real estate values, while low-frequency metro lines and bus lines produce no signifcant impacts. Our results show that the impacts on real estate values of the metro system in Naples are signifcant, with corresponding external benefts estimated at about 7.2 billion euros or about 8.5% of the total value of real estate assets. 1. Introduction lower environmental impacts produced by less use of private cars, investments in transit systems, especially in railways Urban transit systems play a fundamental role for the social and metros, may generate an appreciable increase in property and economic development of large urban areas, as well as values in the zones served; this beneft should be explicitly signifcantly afecting the quality of life in such areas.

  • Particulate Matter Concentrations in a New Section of Metro Line: a Case Study in Italy
    Computers in Railways XIV 523 Particulate Matter concentrations in a new section of metro line: a case study in Italy A. Cartenì1 & S. Campana2 1Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering, University of Naples Federico II, Italy 2Department of Industrial Engineering and Information, Second University of Naples, Italy Abstract All round the world, many studies have measured elevated concentrations of Particulate Matter (PM) in underground metro systems, with non-negligible implications for human health due to protracted exposition to fine particles. Starting from this consideration, the aim of this research was to investigate what is the “aging time” needed to measure high PM concentrations also in new stations of an underground metro line. This was possible taking advantage of the opening, in December 2013, of a new section of the Naples (Italy) line 1 railways. The Naples underground metro line 1 before December 31 was long – about 13 km with 14 stations. The new section, opened in December, consists of 5 new kilometres of line and 3 new stations. During the period December 2013– January 2014, an extensive sampling survey was conducted to measure PM10 concentrations both in the “historical” stations and in the “new” ones. The results of the study are twofold: a) the PM10 concentrations measured in the historical stations confirm the average values of literature; b) just a few days after the opening of the new metro section, high PM10 concentrations were also measured in the new stations with average PM10 values comparable (from a statistical point of view) with those measured in the historical stations of the line.

  • Hirenet Networks
    Page 1 of 56 Expanded Job Site Broadcast Network “Expanded Network” (As of 2/1/2004) Job opportunities entered in either the AutoHire automated hiring system or the CareerShop.com job board may be distributed to the “Expanded Network” of job sites if you are a subscriber to the Network. While a subscription fee must be paid to distribute jobs to the network there are no added membership or posting fees imposed by the individual job sites. That is, they are provided as “free sites” to network subscribers. Following is a list of the job sites included in the “Expanded Network”. The list of job sites totals over 4,000 according to the following table. Despite the list of 4,000+, we promote the service as a 3,000+ job site service in our marketing because the job site list is forever changing. Not all job posting links are in place at all times (lost links) and not all jobs submitted will be posted (no-post situations). There are many factors that cause “lost links”. The most common of which results from changes in the job site posting specifications. Often these changes are not immediately made known to network administrators. This results in loss of service for such sites until knowledge of the failure is known and the situation is corrected. There are also many factors that cause “no-post situations”. Some of the more common circumstances occur when the job site requires data that is not provided in the job posting, or if the job site eliminates certain job postings based on content provided (i.e.
