As Barcelona’s main public transport operator, TMB’s mission is to provide the public with transport options in the city of Barcelona and ten municipalities within its metropolitan area. TMB operates two scheduled transport networks – the bus network and the metro network – in addition to a variety of leisure transport services: Barcelona Bus Turístic (a sightseeing bus service for tourists), Tramvia Blau (“Blue Tram”, a heritage tram service) and Telefèric de Montjuïc (a cable car service). Transports de Barcelona, SA (TB) manages the surface network and ferrocarril Metropolità de Barcelona, SA (fMB) is responsible for the underground network (the metro). Projectes i Serveis de Mobilitat, SA is the company that manages the Montjuïc cable car. TMB’s objectives can be summarised in three points: — To satisfy people’s mobility needs, allowing them to reach their destinations more quickly and in greater comfort. — To provide a public service that is accessible for everyone. — To improve the quality of life within the Barcelona metropolitan area, bringing the various areas closer to each other. 2011B TM Management What is TMB? 7 Summary Grant bus service contractor f or TMB, as part of the metropolitan and Plan public passenger Other public sector, transparency and good transport for the 36 licences Indirect management corporate governance are priority objectives. municipalities Direct management The owner of the share capital of fMB and TB is the AMB, a public administration comprising Functions Transports de Barcelona, SA 36 municipalities that is responsible for of the territorial and urban development, transport AMB f errocarril Metropolità de and mobility, the environment, economic Barcelona, SA promotion and strategic planning.

Successfully achieving this strategic vision Moreover, TMB’s aim is to become a competitive and benchmark is the objective under which the balanced scorecard management public transport and mobility company in Europe, emphasising its model, a management system with an integrated vision of the international projection and viability. The continuing volatility of the business, was implemented. This model measures the management economic situation will once again preclude the strategic directives, of the business supported by four major strategic pillars or upon which the objectives for the coming year will be based, being perspectives: 1) customer/public satisfaction, 2) process performance able to consider any real growth in terms of activity. and innovation, 3) human resource development and growth, and 4) financial results. The effects of the general economic crisis are significant for TMB because public administrations are not in a position to increase their contributions at the same rate as the public transport system requires, forcing the adoption of measures to contain and internalise costs in order to guarantee its viability and quality. Specifically, for 2012, TMB will apply a spending rationalisation plan structured into three blocks: 1) rationalisation of the metro and bus services, 2) measures that affect contracted services and miscellaneous expenses and 3) reduction of salary costs. 2011B TM Management TB M ’s Strategic Lines 10 Summary 1) The perspective of the customers/ 3) The people perspective public Without people excellence cannot be achieved in the other The ultimate strategic objective must perspectives.

  • Bolstering Community Ties and Its Effect on Crime
    Bolstering community ties and its effect on crime: Evidence from a quasi-random experiment Magdalena Dom´ınguez and Daniel Montolio∗ Work in progress - Do not cite without permission This version: February 2019 Abstract In this paper we study the effect of bolstering community ties on local crime rates. To do so, we take advantage of the quasi-random nature of the implementation of a community health policy in the city of Barcelona. Salut als Barris (BSaB) is a policy that through community-based initiatives and empowerment of citizenship aims at improving health outcomes and reducing inequalities of the most disadvantaged neighborhoods. Based on economic and sociological literature it is also arguable that it may affect other relevant variables for overall welfare, such as crime rates. In order to test such a hypothesis, we use monthly data at the neighborhood level and a staggered Differences-in-Differences approach. Overall we find that BSaB highly reduces crimes related to non-cognitive features as well as those where there is a very close personal link (labeled as home crimes), with responses ranging from 9% to 18%. Additionally, female victimization rates drop for all age groups as well as the offense rates of younger cohorts. We argue that such outcomes are due to stronger community ties. Such results provide evidence in favor of non-traditional crime preventing policies. Keywords: crime; community action; differences-in-differences. JEL codes: C23, I18, I28, J18. ∗Dept. of Economics, University of Barcelona and IEB: [email protected] ; [email protected] We are grateful to Elia Diez and Maribel Pasarin at the Barcelona Public Health Agency (ASPB) and IGOP researchers Raquel Gallego and Ernesto Morales at Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB) for their insightful comments on the program.

Specifically, 1,204,000 is approximately the number of boardings per contract area a winter's day in Stockholm. Since the capacity and frequency of the metro service are already quite good in this city, this thesis does not focus on improve that. Its aim is to know the assessment made by metro users of the crowding produced during rush hour. This evaluation is performed by two questionnaires, one shorter that is carried out on board and one longer, online. But before starting with the surveys, this work introduces some general information about public transport in Stockholm and it distinguishes capacity and crowding concepts. Any human behavior begins with the attitudes and perceptions that people show to any particular aspect, from which and through their preferences, they define their behavior acting in one way or another. And once they have made their decision and have chosen to use a service, they will be able to evaluate it by their satisfaction level.

  • Global PPP/PFI Outlook H2 2011: Volumes up Despite Low Activity
    Infrastructure journal - Research & Analysis - Infrastructure Journal: Global PPP/PFI Outl... Page 1 of 14 Muhabbat Mahmudova 21 September 2011 Global PPP/PFI Outlook H2 2011: Volumes up despite low activity Over the first eight months of 2011, an array of interesting projects and related developments were recorded in the global public-private partnerships (PPP) market. Admittedly, there was also a mixture of disappointing economic data, a number of policy and regulation announcements across several jurisdictions, sovereign-debt problems in Europe and a US downgrade – all of which shaped the global economic climate in general and affected the performance of PPP market as we approach the end of the current calendar year. The current scenario, a harbinger for the remaining months in 2011, is that debt is scarce and expensive with regional disparities, the secondary market has come under pressure and M&A activity has suffered. Furthermore, the uncertainty over future liquidity in the debt markets will persist for some time yet as governments introduce financial regulations tailored to their macro prudential concerns. Different regions do not operate in a homogenous market, and each country within the region prioritises and supports PPP infrastructure in a different way and through different policy priorities. However, despite geographic location, successful PPP projects will have to be better tuned to changing market conditions; assets should be structured to a workable format that investors can take on. Hard economic reality made it a necessity for many governments to fund investments in social infrastructure and transport, and the need to involve the private sector has become more acute.

  • Sevilla in the First Decade of the Century: Urban Transformation for a New Urban Model
    Boletín de la AsociaciónSevilla inde the Geógrafos first decade Españoles of the century: N.º 70 - urban2016, transformationpágs. 527-532 for a new urban model I.S.S.N.: 0212-9426 SEVILLA IN THE FIRST DECADE OF THE CENTURY: URBAN TRANSFORMATION FOR A NEW URBAN MODEL Manuel Jesús Marchena Gómez Enrique Hernández Martínez Departamento de Geografía Física y Análisis Geográfico Regional. Universidad de Sevilla [email protected] I. INTRODUCTION During the first decade of the 21st century, Seville received a strong boost from public and private investments that translated into numerous infrastructure, urban development and econo- mic projects which, under the banner of the new General Urban Development Plan (2006), gave rise to a notable urban transformation that is worth analysing in depthActions favoring public space (pedestrianization in the historic center), new mobility projects with new public trans- port (metro, tram) and investing in cycling (cycle lanes, rental system), very definite industrial developments (new Heineken-Cruzcampo, Airbus and Abengoa factories, Renault expansion, port expansion), as well as examples of signature architecture (the “setas” at Encarnación) and the city’s new (and only) skyscraper (César Pelli Tower). The fundamental question that needs to be asked is whether this catalog of elements that make up this urban process are part of a consciously formed city model, what are the aspects upon which this model is based and moves forward and what are the internal inconsistencies and contradictions that could arise. The second key question we should ask in times of economic crisis and the almost total absence of investment is up to what point cities can prolong the profitability time of these urban renewal projects.
