Efficiency improvements in the transport of people and goods within the internal market and with the wider world, enhanced deployment of intelligent transport systems, the greening of the sector and its infrastructures and by that mitigating its negative impact on climate change are key elements of TEN-T policy. Short-to medium-term capital investment in transport infrastructure and systems generates considerable direct and indirect employment and economic growth. Additionally, technological and systems innovation can be expected to foster the development of supporting business ecosystems specialising in the servicing and management of ICT and addressing sustainability challenges. End of 2019 the EU presented the European Green Deal, a new growth strategy that aims to transform the EU into a fair and prosperous society, with a modern, resource- efficient and competitive economy where there are no net emissions of greenhouse gases in 2050 and where economic growth is decoupled

Depart- ment of Transport and Economics, KTH, Stockholm. ISBN 10: 91-85539-24-4. Abstract Incidents in the road transport system can have large negative consequences for the society and the business community. The basic aim of vulnerability analysis is to identify scenarios that i) would lead to severe consequences, and ii) have some likelihood of being realized in the future. The Thesis proposes two main approaches to vulnerability analysis. The first significant component of the analysis is to identify important links in the road net- work, i.e., links where a disruption would lead to severe consequences. The second component is to identify exposed users, i.e., users for which the consequences of a disruption would be particularly severe. Paper I introduces the concepts of importance and exposure and how they can be operationalized in terms of increased travel time when road links are closed.

    ReportReport onon thethe CurrentCurrent StateState ofof CombinedCombined TransportTransport inin EuropeEurope EUROPEAN CONFERENCE OF MINISTERS TRANSPORT EUROPEAN CONFERENCE OF MINISTERS OF TRANSPORT REPORT ON THE CURRENT STATE OF COMBINED TRANSPORT IN EUROPE EUROPEAN CONFERENCE OF MINISTERS OF TRANSPORT (ECMT) The European Conference of Ministers of Transport (ECMT) is an inter-governmental organisation established by a Protocol signed in Brussels on 17 October 1953. It is a forum in which Ministers responsible for transport, and more speci®cally the inland transport sector, can co-operate on policy. Within this forum, Ministers can openly discuss current problems and agree upon joint approaches aimed at improving the utilisation and at ensuring the rational development of European transport systems of international importance. At present, the ECMT's role primarily consists of: ± helping to create an integrated transport system throughout the enlarged Europe that is economically and technically ef®cient, meets the highest possible safety and environmental standards and takes full account of the social dimension; ± helping also to build a bridge between the European Union and the rest of the continent at a political level. The Council of the Conference comprises the Ministers of Transport of 39 full Member countries: Albania, Austria, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (F.Y.R.O.M.), Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Moldova, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, the Russian Federation, the Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine and the United Kingdom. There are ®ve Associate member countries (Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand and the United States) and three Observer countries (Armenia, Liechtenstein and Morocco).

  • Zero-Emission Ferry Concept for Scandlines
    Zero-Emission Ferry Concept for Scandlines Fridtjof Rohde, Björn Pape FutureShip, Hamburg/Germany Claus Nikolajsen Scandlines, Rodby/Denmark Abstract FutureShip has designed a zero-emission ferry for Scandlines’ Vogelfluglinie (linking Puttgarden (Germany) and Rødby (Denmark), which could be deployed by 2017. The propulsion is based on liquid hydrogen converted by fuel cells for the electric propulsion. The hydrogen could be obtained near the ports using excess electricity from wind. Excess on-board electricity is stored in batteries for peak demand. Total energy needs are reduced by optimized hull lines, propeller shape, ship weight and procedures in port. 1. Introduction The “Vogelfluglinie” denotes the connection of the 19 km transport corridor between Puttgarden (Germany) and Rødby (Denmark), Fig.1. This corridor has been served for many years by Scandlines ferries, which transport cars and trains. Four ferries serve two port terminals with specifically tailored infrastructure, Fig.2. The double- end ferries do not have to turn around in port, which contributes to the very short time in port. Combined with operating speed between 15 and 21 kn, departures can be offered every 30 minutes. After decades of unchal- lenged operation, two developments appeared on the horizon which changed the business situation for Scandli- nes fundamentally: 1. New international regulations would curb permissible thresholds for emissions from ships in the Baltic Sea: Starting from 2015, only fuels with less than 0.1% sulphur, i.e. a 90% reduction compared to present opera- tion, will be permissible for Baltic Sea shipping. Starting from 2016, Tier III of MARPOL’s nitrogen oxides (NOx) regulations will become effective.

On its peninsula in the north-west cor- ner of Europe, and with its northern boundary abutting on the Polar world, it forms a backwater to the main stream of Continental communications. The southern boundary of Sweden lies in the same latitude as the boundary between Scotland and England, and as Labrador and British Columbia in America; while its northern boundary lies in the same latitude as the northern half of Greenland and the Arctic archipelago of America.

  • Healthy Migrant Perspectives on Disability and Mobility in a Nineteenth-Century Population
    Healthy migrant perspectives on disability and mobility in a nineteenth-century population Johan Junkka, Lotta Vikström and Erling Häggström Lundevaller CEDAR Working Papers 2021:19 Centre for Demographic and Ageing Research Healthy migrant perspectives on disability and mobility in a nineteenth-century population Johan Junkka Centre for Demographic and Ageing Research (CEDAR), Umeå University, Sweden Lotta Vikström Centre for Demographic and Ageing Research (CEDAR), Umeå University, Sweden Erling Häggström Lundevaller Centre for Demographic and Ageing Research (CEDAR), Umeå University, Sweden Abstract The strong association between weak health and immobility suggests why there is insufficient knowledge on how disability affects human migration, historically and today. Swedish parish registers digitized by the Demographic Data Base (DDB), Umeå University, enable this study to investigate a 19th-century population of more than 35,000 including a group long hidden in research and society because of disability. First, rates and regressions demonstrate that disability impeded the migration of both men and women albeit with variations by disability type and over time. During industrialisation the overall migration risk was increasing, but not in case of disability. Second, spatial analysis shows that disability limited the distance migrants crossed, especially in the pre-industrial period and among women. During industrial time, migrants’ distance and destinations became less determined by disability. We address healthy migrant perspectives and lock-in mechanisms to discuss the disability differences in migration.
