  • The Urban Rail Development Handbook
    DEVELOPMENT THE “ The Urban Rail Development Handbook offers both planners and political decision makers a comprehensive view of one of the largest, if not the largest, investment a city can undertake: an urban rail system. The handbook properly recognizes that urban rail is only one part of a hierarchically integrated transport system, and it provides practical guidance on how urban rail projects can be implemented and operated RAIL URBAN THE URBAN RAIL in a multimodal way that maximizes benefits far beyond mobility. The handbook is a must-read for any person involved in the planning and decision making for an urban rail line.” —Arturo Ardila-Gómez, Global Lead, Urban Mobility and Lead Transport Economist, World Bank DEVELOPMENT “ The Urban Rail Development Handbook tackles the social and technical challenges of planning, designing, financing, procuring, constructing, and operating rail projects in urban areas. It is a great complement HANDBOOK to more technical publications on rail technology, infrastructure, and project delivery. This handbook provides practical advice for delivering urban megaprojects, taking account of their social, institutional, and economic context.” —Martha Lawrence, Lead, Railway Community of Practice and Senior Railway Specialist, World Bank HANDBOOK “ Among the many options a city can consider to improve access to opportunities and mobility, urban rail stands out by its potential impact, as well as its high cost. Getting it right is a complex and multifaceted challenge that this handbook addresses beautifully through an in-depth and practical sharing of hard lessons learned in planning, implementing, and operating such urban rail lines, while ensuring their transformational role for urban development.” —Gerald Ollivier, Lead, Transit-Oriented Development Community of Practice, World Bank “ Public transport, as the backbone of mobility in cities, supports more inclusive communities, economic development, higher standards of living and health, and active lifestyles of inhabitants, while improving air quality and liveability.

Ribalaygua3, & J.M Urefia2 IDepartment of Transportation, 2Department of Urban planning, 3 Department of Graphic Designj Castilla-La Manchu University, Spain Abstract This paper studies the effects of high-speed railway stations, mainly on urban development of small size cities. For this purpose, we have analyzed twelve European cases and they have been sorted into different groups depending on the station location related to the city. Three categories have been defined: central station, edge station, and external station. As a result of this, for each group of European stations advantages and disadvantages, in terms of urban development and mobility, have been detected. This report will help planners to define some criteria to design and locate new high-speed railway stations in small size cities. 1 Study targets Up to now, the main target of new high-speed lines has been connecting two big population areas which size justifies the public investment required for its construction. But also, small and medium size cities are generally included in interior points of these lines. In these small cities, the new infrastructure is perceived as an important tool for the economic development and urban dynamism, and this is why local authorities must find the way to adapt the city to its new situation, in order to get the maximum benefit from it.

  • Horsecars: City Transit Before the Age of Electricity by John H
    Horsecars: City Transit Before the Age of Electricity by John H. White, Jr. Horsecars were the earliest form of city rail transit. One or two horses propelled light, boxy tram cars over tracks buried in the streets. Only the tops of the iron rails could be seen; the rest of the track structure was below the surface of the pavement. The rails offered a smooth, low-friction surface so that a heavy load could be propelled with a minimal power source. The cars moved slowly at rarely more than six miles per hour. They were costly to operate and rarely ventured much beyond the city limits. There was no heat in the winter nor air-conditioning in the summer. Lighting was so dim that reading was impossible after sunset. Horsecars were in all ways low-tech and old wave, yet they worked and moved millions of passengers each day. They were indispensable to urban life. The public became enthralled with riding and would not walk unless the cars stopped running. Horsecars were a fixture in American city life between about 1860 and 1900. Even the smallest city had at least one horsecar line. Grand Street, New York, at Night, 1889. From Harper’s Weekly. Basic Statistics for U.S. Street Railways in 1881 Millions on the Move 415 street railways in operation 18,000 cars The earliest cities were designed for walking. Everything clustered around 100,000 horses 150,000 tons of hay consumed each year the town square. Churches, shops, taverns, schools were all next to one another. 11,000,000 bushels of grain consumed each year Apartments and homes were a few blocks away.

On August 27, 1863 service began on Woodward Avenue, on September 12, 1863 service began on Gratiot Avenue and on November 25, 1863 service began on Michigan Avenue. All of the lines converged at Jefferson and Woodward Avenues. 1892 ‐ On August 22, 1892 the Detroit Citizens Street Railway succeeds the Detroit City Railway and begins to offer electric powered streetcar service along Jefferson Avenue. Electric streetcars replace the horse‐drawn trolley on Woodward and Mack by the end of the year. 1895 ‐ Due to the improved power electric streetcar service expands into the suburbs. 1900 ‐ 1950 1900 ‐ The population of Detroit is 285,704 and the land area of the city is 28.3 square miles.

  • The Future for Interurban Passenger Transport
    The future for interurban passenger transport M a d r i d Bringing citizens closer together 1 8 t h International Symposium on Transport Economics and Policy The future for interurban passenger transport Bringing citizens closer together Economic growth, trade and the concentration of population in large cities will intensify demand for interurban transport services. Concurrently, the need to manage environmental impacts effectively will increase. How successful we are in coping with demand will depend on our ability to innovate, to manage congestion, and The future to improve the quality of transport services. Technological and regulatory innovation will shape the future of transport. The Symposium brought together leading transport researchers from for interurban around the world to explore the future for interurban passenger transport. A first set of papers investigates what drives demand for interurban passenger transport and infers how it may evolve in the passenger future. The remaining papers investigate transport policy issues that emerge as key challenges: when to invest in high-speed rail, how to regulate to ensure efficient operation, how to assign infrastructure to transport different types of users, and how to control transport’s environmental footprint by managing modal split and improving modal performance.

  • TCQSM Part 8
    Transit Capacity and Quality of Service Manual—2nd Edition PART 8 GLOSSARY This part of the manual presents definitions for the various transit terms discussed and referenced in the manual. Other important terms related to transit planning and operations are included so that this glossary can serve as a readily accessible and easily updated resource for transit applications beyond the evaluation of transit capacity and quality of service. As a result, this glossary includes local definitions and local terminology, even when these may be inconsistent with formal usage in the manual. Many systems have their own specific, historically derived, terminology: a motorman and guard on one system can be an operator and conductor on another. Modal definitions can be confusing. What is clearly light rail by definition may be termed streetcar, semi-metro, or rapid transit in a specific city. It is recommended that in these cases local usage should prevail.

  • Electric Railways
    This PDF is a selection from an out-of-print volume from the National Bureau of Economic Research Volume Title: The Transportation Industries, 1889-1946: A Study of Output, Employment, and Productivity Volume Author/Editor: Harold Barger Volume Publisher: NBER Volume ISBN: 0-87014-050-7 Volume URL: http://www.nber.org/books/barg51-1 Publication Date: 1951 Chapter Title: Electric Railways Chapter Author: Harold Barger Chapter URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c3191 Chapter pages in book: (p. 112 - 122) Chapter 5 Electric Railways The term 'electric railways' includes Street and interurban railway systems and city subways but does not cover the electrified divisions of steam railroads. The industry carries vast numbers of short distance passengers. Although they have numbered ten to twenty times those carried by steam railroads, neither the revenues nor the employees of electric railways have ever exceeded one-fifth the corresponding figure for steam railroads. The first streetcars were drawn by animals. Cable systems were installed as early as 1873. Electric traction, introduced in 1884, had superseded all other types of motive power by 1907. The electrification of existing Street railways was accompanied, espe- cially during the first decade of this century, by the construction of interurban roads and city subways.1 The industry reached a peak in passengers, revenues and em- ployees shortly after World War I. Thereafter the competition of the motorbus -andprivate automobile bit deeply into electric railway operations. The story therefore resembles that of steam railroads, except that electric railways started much later and rose more rapidly to prominence, and after their peak — declinedmore sharply.2 See Census of Street and Electric Railways, 1902 and 1907.
