    Railway and Transport Strategy Centre The Operator’s Story Case Study: Guangzhou’s Story © World Bank / Imperial College London Property of the World Bank and the RTSC at Imperial College London Community of Metros CoMET The Operator’s Story: Notes from Guangzhou 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 Guangzhou, China. These notes are based upon 3 meetings on the 11th March 2016. This document will ultimately form an appendix to the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’ piece. 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. 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. This mini case study does not attempt to provide a comprehensive picture of Guangzhou Metropolitan Corporation (GMC), but rather focuses on specific topics of interest to The Operators’ Story project. The research team thank GMC and its staff for their kind participation in this project. Comments are not attributed to specific individuals, as agreed with the interviewees and GMC. List of interviewees Meetings include the following GMC members: Mr.

  • The Rise of Qianhai, China
    RESEA R CH TECHNICAL PAPER November 2014 THE RISE OF QIANHAI, CHINA: AN OPPORTUNITY OR A CHALLENGE? EXECUTIVE SUMMARY There is no doubt China has the world’s fastest-growing economy and its currency (RMB) has grown significantly over the past years in terms of the volume utilised for trade settlement, finance and investment. According to the latest survey compiled by the Society of Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications (SWIFT), a global provider of secure financial messaging services, RMB payments worldwide have almost tripled in value over the past two years. As of September 2014, the RMB was ranked seventh in the top 20 global payments currencies. Looking forward, due to the increasing usage in Hong Kong, China and other offshore centers, it is predicted to be mature enough to become a reserve currency within the next five years. In order to cater for expanding settlement volumes, and support the future development of new products and services denominated in RMB, Qianhai in Shenzhen will play a unique role in fostering RMB internationalisation by accelerating the circulation of RMB funds across the border. In an effort to explore the opportunities and challenges Qianhai poses, Colliers will comment on the positioning of Qianhai in relation to Hong Kong and other factors, such as the Shanghai Free-Trade Zone (SHFTZ), and the latest development policies, such as the newly announced 15% corporate tax and its subject beneficiaries. Competition is inevitable but characterised by the Central Government supported incentives and policies, Colliers believe the position of Qianhai as a “special zone”, will provide more opportunities rather than challenges in and beyond the Pearl River Delta region.

  • By S. Zhang Et Al
    Reply to comments on “The Challenge to NOX Emission Control for Heavy-duty Diesel Vehicles in China” by S. Zhang et al “Black” means the comments from reviewer and “Blue” text are our responses. We are deeply grateful to the referees of this paper for the very helpful comments. These comments are fully understood by the authors and individually responded to. Our responses to the comments are listed below. Reply to comments from Anonymous Referee #1: Overall Comments: My overall comments are favorable. I thought the paper presented interesting results of the use of a vehicle emission model to infer the dominant sources of vehicle pollution in Macao, as well as the potential use of traffic information linked to an emission model and air dispersion model to inform environmental and transportation policy. My major comment on the content of the paper, is that the authors need to provide more information into how the emissions and air quality concentrations were estimated are estimated. For example, the paper is unclear on how the vehicle split by link is estimated, how the speeds are estimated and applied in the vehicle emission model, and how the ‘fleet average’ emission rates in Table 4 are estimated. Also the comment Printer-friendly version Discussion paper discussion on the air dispersion modeling is very limited. We appreciate the referee’s favorable comments. According to specific comment on the method and data details, we try out best to inform the readers of the estimation of fleet split and speed profiles (e.g., Equations 3, 5 and 6, see Page 7), the development of local emission factors (e.g., Page 9 to Page 10).

  • 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.
