  • Development of the Urban Form in Helsinki and Stockholm Metropolitan Regions
    PLANNORD Stockholm, The 7th Nordic Planning Research Symposium, August 20th – 22nd 2015 Mika Ristimäki & Panu Söderström Finnish Environment Institute (SYKE) Development of the Urban Form in Helsinki and Stockholm metropolitan regions Backround In recent decades, the Helsinki and Stockholm city regions have been among the most rapidly growing areas in Europe. In addition to the peri-urban area surrounding a dense core area, the areas of impact of both cities include several smaller towns, various development corridors and extensive rural areas. How has the urban form of metropolitan areas been structured from the core to the fringes? How should their development be guided? Answering these questions requires international reference data so that solutions that have been successful elsewhere can be utilised in planning and decision-making, and detrimental effects can be prevented. In order to succeed, the comparison of city regions requires comparable data, applicable methods and identifying the similarities and differences of the administrative and planning systems of the studied regions. In many ways, the Stockholm metropolitan area is an important point of comparison for Helsinki. In terms of its many dimensions, urbanisation in the Stockholm region has been found to be more advanced than in Helsinki, which is why the solutions implemented in Stockholm with regard to urban form should be evaluated in relation to the development of the Helsinki region. A comparative study of the urban form in Helsinki and Stockholm was originally published in the form of a collection of articles in Finnish (ed. Söderström, Schulman & Ristimäki 2014). The publication explored the development of the city regions through GIS and statistical analyses, literature reviews and expert interviews conducted in the regions.

  • Localisations of Logistics Centres in Greater Stockholm
    Department of Real Estate and Construction Management Thesis no. 182 Real Estate Economics and Financial Services Master of Science, 30 credits Real Estate Economics MSs Localisations of Logistics Centres in Greater Stockholm Author: Supervisor: Gunnar Larsson Stockholm 2012 Hans Lind Master of Science thesis Title: Localisations of Logistics Centres in Greater Stockholm Author: Gunnar Larsson Department Department of Real Estate and Construction Management Master Thesis number 182 Supervisor Hans Lind Keywords Logistics, Stockholm, location, localisation factors, warehouse, terminal, logistics centres, logistics parks, future, scenario. Abstract This study examines how and on what basis logistics centres are located in Greater Stockholm. Its purpose is to formulate a possible future scenario regarding localisations of logistics centres in Greater Stockholm in 10-15 years. Goods transports, distribution, property characteristics, market trends, investment decisions, localisation factors, potential challenges, public plans, transport infrastructure and logistics locations have been investigated in order to form a conclusion. There is a wide range of previous research on most fields mentioned above. Yet there is a gap regarding a picture of them from a market perspective applied to Stockholm’s future. The research method is qualitative, involving 31 interviews (34 respondents) representing logistics companies, goods holders, property developers, investors, consultants and municipalities; as they are making the decisions of tomorrow, i.e. “choose” the locations. The qualitative approach has been complemented with descriptions of infrastructure, regional plans and reports in order to consolidate and complement facts and opinions from the interviews. Together they provide the basis for a final analysis and discussion followed by a possible future scenario of Greater Stockholm’s major logistics locations.

  • How Improved Rail Infrastructure Will Affect Property Values in Northern Stockholm
    Department of Real Estate and Construction Management Thesis no. 93 Department of Transport Science, division of Transport and Logistics. Civil Engineering and Urban Management (CSAMH) Bachelor of Science, 15 credits Name of track How improved rail infrastructure will affect property values in northern Stockholm. - A study in value capture and the development of public transport in the northern regions of Stockholm. Authors: Supervisors: Alexander Pikosz Hans Lind David Tiberg Stockholm 2011 Karl Kottenhoff Bachelor of Science thesis Title: How improved rail infrastructure will affect property values in northern Stockholm. Authors: Alexander Pikosz, David Tiberg Departments: Real Estate and Construction Management, Transport Science Bachelor Thesis number: 93 Supervisors: Hans Lind, Karl Kottenhoff Keywords: Public Transport, Real Estate, Polycentric, Monocentric, Property Value, Value Capture, Norrortsbanan, Urban Center, Regional Focal Point, Financing Railroad Abstract This report aims to determine the economical benefits of improved public transport in some of Stockholms northern suburbs that are strategic locations for further urbanization. The correlation between public transport (PT) and property values will be explored. How will the PT scenarios that are suggested here increase the value of real estate in the regional focal points? How can the financial winners by this improvement be prepared to take part in financing the PT solutions? Denna uppsats syftar till att fastställa de ekonomiska fördelarna av förbättrad kollektivtrafik i norra Stockholmsregionen. Det kommer att undersökas i vilken utsträckning det föreligger ett samband mellan tillgänglighet till kollektivtrafik och fastighetsvärden. Hur kan de olika kollektivtrafiklösningarna komma att påverka fastighetsvärdena i de regionala kärnorna? Hur skulle nyttotagarna av en sådan investering kunna vara med att finansiera den? 2 Acknowledgment After finishing the Bachelor thesis at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm we would like to thank all of those who have helped us in the process.

  • 3. Riks- Och Mellankommunala Intressen
    3. Riks- och mellankommunala intressen Riksintressen Vissa områden i Sverige är klassade som riksintresse. Lagreg- ler angående riksintressen finns i 3 och 4 kapitlet. miljöbalken. Att en miljö eller ett objekt är av riksintresse innebär att det har så speciella förutsättningar att det bedömts vara av bety- delse för landet som helhet. I ett område av riksintresse får områdets värde eller betydelse inte påtagligt skadas av annan tillståndspliktig verksamhet. Riksintresset väger alltid tyngre än ett eventuellt motstående lokalt allmänintresse och områ- den av riksintresse ska prioriteras i den fysiska planeringen. Riksintresse kan gälla för såväl områden som är skyddsvärda pga sina speciella natur- och kulturvärden, som för områden som är av betydelse för ett speciellt nyttjande (till exempel kommunikationer, energiproduktion, energidistribution etc.). Riksintressenas syfte är att säkerställa en användning eller att bevara någonting för framtiden. Ansvarsfördelningen mellan olika myndigheter framgår av förordningen om hushållning med mark och vattenområ- den (SFS 1998:896). Enligt förordningen ska Trafikverket lämna uppgifter om områden som Trafikverket bedömer vara av riksintresse för kommunikationer enligt 3 kapitlet. miljöbalken. Förordningen anger vidare att det är Riksantik- varieämbetet som bedömer om ett område är av riksintresse för kulturmiljövården. Områden av riksintresse pekas ut i en process där såväl statliga centrala myndigheter som länssty- relser och kommuner är delaktiga. De utpekade riksintressena ska hanteras i kommunernas översiktsplanering. Länsstyrel- sen bevakar att kommunerna tillgodoser riksintressena i sin planering. Riksintressen som berör Danderyd redovisas nedan samt på karta Riksintressen på sidan 23. E18 I Stockholms län är merparten av det statliga befintliga väg- nätet av riksintresse. Inom Danderyds kommun är E18 klassat som riksintresse.
