  • Chapter 11 RAIL TRANSPORT in CHILE
    Chapter 11 RAIL TRANSPORT IN CHILE Raimundo Soto 1 Extensive reform was completed in the rail sector in Chile and different models were used, including full privatisation and concessions. Both types of reforms achieved significant efficiency and welfare gains and reforms have improved the industry operations, particularly in freight. Motivation for the reforms was to reduce subsidies: that issue remains, particularly in the passenger sector. 11.1 INTRODUCTION Railways played a significant role in social life in Chile for almost a century. Between 1860 and 1950 railroads were an exemplar of modernisation, integration and economic development. By 1950, however, the industry had started to decline, unable to compete with more efficient means of transportation (buses and trucks). By the mid 1970s railroads were bankrupt, surviving through government subsidies. Two decades later, passenger services had almost disappeared (accounting for less than 1% of total traffic). Freight operations, on the contrary, had been privatised and revitalised, and concentrated on small profitable market niches usually in remote areas of the economy (Thompson & Angerstein 1997). This paper reviews the Chilean case and analyzes the current standing and operations of the industry, focusing on the reforms, public sector involvement, regulation, market entry, vertical integration, externalities and political factors. The Chilean economy underwent a massive restructuring in the mid 1970s. This included opening to foreign trade, complete market deregulation, inflation control, macroeconomic stabilisation and, most importantly for our study, a complete reallocation of government subsidies. In this economic turnaround, despite the waste and inefficiency associated with the publicly-owned railroad monopoly, no specific reforms were devised for railroads.

  • The Operator's Story Appendix: Santiago's Story
    Railway and Transport Strategy Centre The Operator’s Story Appendix: Santiago’s Story © World Bank / Imperial College London Property of the World Bank and the RTSC at Imperial College London 1 The Operator’s Story: Notes from Santiago Case Study Interviews – February 2017 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide a permanent record for the researchers of what was said by people interviewed for ‘The Operator’s Story’ in Santiago. These notes are based upon 11 meetings between 16th and 20th May 2016. This document will form an appendix to the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’. Although the findings have been arranged and structured by Imperial College London, they remain a collation of thoughts and statements from interviewees, and continue to be the opinions of those interviewed, rather than of Imperial College London or the World Bank. Prefacing the notes is a summary of Imperial College’s key findings based on comments made, which will be drawn out further in the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’. Method This content is a collation in note form of views expressed in the interviews that were conducted for this study. Comments are not attributed to specific individuals, as agreed with the interviewees and Metro de Santiago. However, in some cases it is noted that a comment was made by an individual external not employed by Metro de Santiago (‘external commentator’), where it is appropriate to draw a distinction between views expressed by Metro de Santiago themselves and those expressed about their organisation.

It has a high concentration of higher education and research activity. Its universities and other Development higher education institutions have made significant progress in widening access to education. But challenges remain: the Bío Bío Region continues to suffer from brain Bío Bío Region, Chile drain as well as higher than average unemployment and poverty rates. How can the Bío Bío Region promote new business formation and the development of the existing small and medium-sized companies?

This joint OECD and World Bank review explores a range of helpful policy measures and institutional reforms to mobilise higher education for the development of the Bío Bío Region. It is part of the series of the OECD reviews of Higher Education in Regional and City Development. These reviews help mobilise higher education institutions for economic, social and cultural development of cities and regions.

  • Regulation of Digital Platforms
    Disruptive Technologies: Regulation of Digital Platforms Chapter 3 Transport Platforms Abstract This chapter deals with digital transport platforms focusing on ridesourcing or ride-hailing platforms. It provides details of some of the leading active platforms in the country and information on its users and drivers. It presents an estimation model on the efficiency gains granted by the platforms’ technology, which on average imply cost savings of 33%, significantly higher than the 2% derived from savings due to the absence of regulation. Finally, the chapter delivers a set of proposed regulations for the sector. 3.1 Introduction People move within their city to carry out multiple activities, requiring different forms of mobilization (hike, bicycle, car, etc.). These may both be collective or individual, and of public or private access (see Table 3.1). The options of mobilization affect people´s quality of life, and, because of their impact on the use of private and public spaces -such as streets or parking lots – they affect society as a whole. The transport system that moves people and cargo is a critical factor in the modern economy. It allows participation in social activities, economic exchanges, and the spatial distribution of goods. In turn, it generates social costs, such as congestion and pollution. The challenges related to mobility are multiple and complex, which in public transport include rates, waiting and displacement times, exclusive routes, comfort, and safety, etc.; while in the private sector consider road pricing costs, road space rationing, congestion, and access to parking lots, among many others.

  • Planning in Santiago Chile, 1997-2012
    Citizens, Complexity and the City Lessons from citizen participation in urban (transport) planning in Santiago Chile, 1997-2012 By Lake Sagaris A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Geography and Planning University of Toronto © Lake Sagaris, 1 June 2013 Citizens, Complexity and the City Lessons from citizen participation in urban (transport) planning in Santiago Chile, 1997-2012 Lake Sagaris Doctor of Philosophy Department of Geography and Planning,University of Toronto, 2013 Abstract Twentieth century, citizen “revolts” against highway projects have influenced thinking about public transport (Toronto, Vancouver, New York), governance (Portland), and cycling (The Netherlands) to this day. Less is known about how these emerge in developing countries, and what they can tell us about citizens’ role in innovation to achieve more socially just, good and livable cities. Using a complexity-based approach, this dissertation explores lessons from an anti-highway movement in Santiago, Chile (1997), which challenged authoritarian planning paradigms inherited from the Pinochet regime (1973-1990). In 2000, these leaders of diverse communities founded a citizen institution, Living City (Ciudad Viva), which today is a prize-winning, citizen-led planning institution. Participation is recognized as important to community development, health and urban planning. Nonetheless, a rich literature notes many limitations. Is improving participation just a matter of “getting the process right”?
