Preface Preface The purpose of a Rail Accident Investigation Branch (RAIB) investigation is to improve railway safety by preventing future railway accidents or by mitigating their consequences. It is not the purpose of such an investigation to establish blame or liability. Accordingly, it is inappropriate that RAIB reports should be used to assign fault or blame, or determine liability, since neither the investigation nor the reporting process has been undertaken for that purpose. The RAIB’s findings are based on its own evaluation of the evidence that was available at the time of the investigation and are intended to explain what happened, and why, in a fair and unbiased manner.

  • A Study on Connectivity and Accessibility Between Tram Stops and Public Facilities: a Case Study in the Historic Cities of Europe
    Urban Street Design & Planning 73 A study on connectivity and accessibility between tram stops and public facilities: a case study in the historic cities of Europe Y. Kitao1 & K. Hirano2 1Kyoto Women’s University, Japan 2Kei Atelier, Yame, Fukuoka, Japan Abstract The purpose of this paper is to understand urban structures in terms of tram networks by using the examples of historic cities in Europe. We have incorporated the concept of interconnectivity and accessibility between public facilities and tram stops to examine how European cities, which have built world class public transportation systems, use the tram network in relationship to their public facilities. We selected western European tram-type cities which have a bus system, but no subway system, and we focused on 24 historic cities with populations from 100,000 to 200,000, which is the optimum size for a large-scale community. In order to analyze the relationship, we mapped the ‘pedestrian accessible area’ from any tram station in the city, and analyzed how many public facilities and pedestrian streets were in this area. As a result, we were able to compare the urban space structures of these cities in terms of the accessibility and connectivity between their tram stops and their public facilities. Thus we could understand the features which determined the relationship between urban space and urban facilities. This enabled us to evaluate which of our target cities was the most pedestrian orientated city. Finally, we were able to define five categories of tram-type cities. These findings have provided us with a means to recognize the urban space structure of a city, which will help us to improve city planning in Japan.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE the Disability Resources Centre
    DISABILITY RESOURCES CENTRE (INC.) 3rd Floor, Ross House 247 Flinders Lane MELBOURNE 3000 Ph. 9671 3000 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE The Disability Resources Centre welcomes Tram Stop Upgrades 9th May 2018 The DRC congratulates the Victorian Government on the announcement to upgrade the existing tram system, making it more accessible for people with disabilities. We are pleased that new island platforms will enable people with wheelchairs and mobility aids to travel independently to several Melbourne hospitals, cultural centres and places of education. The Disability Resources Centre (DRC) is a member-driven organisation that is managed and staffed by people with disabilities. We promote the rights of people with disabilities through individual and systemic advocacy. We are currently conducting an Accessible Public Transport project investigating the major transport issues faced by Victorians with disabilities. Throughout our consultation process we have recorded several examples of people with disabilities being unable to access essential services or popular destinations due to inaccessible trams. A mother living in a regional area shared that she regularly travels by train to Melbourne for hospital appointments with her son, yet there is no accessible public transport from the CBD train station to the hospital. She recalled being unable to exit the tram at the hospital, not knowing where the next accessible stop would be and whether she would arrive in time for the appointment, after travelling hours to get there. The new raised platforms will enable them to take the full journey from home to the hospital on public transport reducing the uncertainty, stress and cost they currently face.

  • What to Do in Hakodate
    What to do in Hakodate It has been said that Hakodate is one of Japan's most popular tourist destinations. The following guide contains brief descriptions of many of the places of interest and restaurants to help you decide whether or not Hakodate deserves such high praise. These recommendations are not exhaustive but are places that we believe will be of interest to the AAMAS conference attendees. Internet Links There are of course many ‘offline’ and ‘online’ guides to Hakodate to which we strongly recommend you refer. Here are some Internet links (both in English and Japanese), for those of you that wish to discover more about the city. Hakodate City Home Page (English) http://www.city.hakodate.hokkaido.jp/kikaku/english/ Wikipedia; Hakodate (English) http://wikitravel.org/en/Hakodate Hakodate – Southern Hokkaido Tourist Guide (English) http://www.hakodate-kankou.com/f/index_e.html Hakodate Information Network (Japanese) http://www.hakodate.or.jp/ Hakodate Town Navi (Japanese) http://www.hakonavi.ne.jp/ Japan Rail Hakodate (Japanese) http://www.hakodate.or.jp/jr/default.htm Hakodate Bus Web Site (Japanese) http://www.hotweb.or.jp/hakobus/ Gourmet Hakonavi (Japanese) http://gourmet.hakonavi.ne.jp/ Hakodate YuShokuCho (Japanese) http://homepage2.nifty.com/matuisi/ In this PDF version of the Hakodate guide, you will find Internet links to many of the places that are mentioned.

  • Improving Disabled Access to the Tram System in Melbourne, Victoria
    GFS-0812 Improving Disabled Access to the Tram System in Melbourne, Victoria An Interactive Qualifying Project submitted to the Department of Infrastructure and the Faculty of Worcester Polytechnic Institute in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science by ____________________________________________ Alexander Christakis ____________________________________________ Katie Flynn ____________________________________________ Jennifer Himottu 28 April 2007 ____________________________________________ Professor Holly Ault, Advisor ____________________________________________ Professor Guillermo Salazar, Advisor This report represents the work of three WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its web site without editorial or peer review. Abstract This project assisted the Department of Infrastructure of the Victorian government in improving the accessibility of the tram system for disabled passengers in Melbourne, Australia. A systematic rating system for assessing future stops to upgrade to conform to accessibility standards was proposed and applied to three target routes. Criteria were defined by reviewing the current state of accessibility and interviewing stakeholders. The proposed approach will help to effectively focus project effort and funding to critical areas in the future. ii Acknowledgements This project was a great undertaking and the first time WPI was able to work with the DOI of the state of Victoria. Therefore, we would like to thank the several people that helped and encouraged us throughout our project and made our stay in Melbourne even more enjoyable. We would first like to thank our project liaison Dr. Jim North, also known to us as ―Doctor‖, ―Professor‖, ―Gunslinger‖, ―The Scotsman‖ and ―Boss Jim.‖ He went above and beyond his duties as project liaison and drilled into our heads the idea of ―Scottish Rules.‖ All the information we needed, as long as we asked, we received.

  • MULTI-CRITERIA DECISION MAKING to SELECT the BEST MONORAIL ROUTE Dr
    [Abdulkareem, 5(5): May, 2018] ISSN 2349-4506 Impact Factor: 3.799 Global Journal of Engineering Science and Research Management MULTI-CRITERIA DECISION MAKING TO SELECT THE BEST MONORAIL ROUTE Dr. Imzaem Abdulkareem*, Dr. Ammar A. Shubber & Eng. Asseel Sabah Assist. Professor, Building and Construction Engineering Department, University of Technology, Baghdad, Iraq. Lecturer Doctor, Building and Construction Engineering Department, University of Technology, Baghdad, Iraq Engineer, Building and Construction Engineering Department, University of Technology, Baghdad, Iraq DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.1255758 KEYWORDS: tram route, best route selection, criteria weighting, multi criteria decision-making. ABSTRACT The primary goal of any route selection is to find the best one with adopted conditions that meet the predetermined selection criteria. Manipulating spatial data of multiple criteria using Geographic information system (GIS), GPS, and Civil 3D programs is presented in the paper. A case study in Baghdad City, in which the best tram route was chosen, was applied. Six alternative routes were proposed. A multi criteria decision-making (MCDM) methodology was adopted to decide the best alternative. The study proved that a GIS based system combined with (MCDM) techniques may be a suitable tool for transforming geographical data into a decision and can be applied in tramway route planning and design. INTRODUCTION Any public transportation infrastructure development project should begin with the recognition of an existing or projected need to meet the present and growing demand in the future. This problem will result in a series of actions, starting with searching out and screening geographic areas and specific locations. Routes that satisfy the screening criteria are subject to detailed evaluation [1].
