It acts as a strategic think tank with the objective of helping shape the transport policy agenda on a global level and ensuring that it contributes to economic growth, environmental protection, social inclusion and the preservation of human life and well-being. The International Transport Forum organises an annual summit of Ministers along with leading representatives from industry, civil society and academia. The International Transport Forum was created under a Declaration issued by the Council of Ministers of the ECMT (European Conference of Ministers of Transport) at its Ministerial Session in May 2006 under the legal authority of the Protocol of the ECMT, signed in Brussels on 17 October 1953, and legal instruments of the OECD. The Members of the Forum are: Albania, Armenia, Australia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Canada, China, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, FYROM, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Korea, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Mexico, Moldova, Montenegro, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, the United Kingdom and the United States. The International Transport Forum’s Research Centre gathers statistics and conducts co- operative research programmes addressing all modes of transport. Its findings are widely disseminated and support policymaking in Member countries as well as contributing to the annual summit. CASE STUDIES A compendium of case studies related to seamless transport has been developed as an input to the Summit 2012. Forum Member countries and inter-governmental and professional international organisations were asked to submit examples of good practice in seamless transport. The case studies have not been substantively edited by the International Transport Forum and they reflect the author's opinions alone. The case studies can be downloaded from: www.internationaltransportforum.org/2012.

The Marmaray Project is a commuter rail system designed to unify Istanbul’s two independent rail transportation systems, and it will connect Halkalı on the European side with Gebze on the Asian side of the city. With the beginnings of rail construction in the 1870s, the waters of the Bosphorus separated the Oriental Railway on the European side from the Anatolian and the Baghdad Railway, preventing a direct connection between Europe and Asia.

  • Press Release NCC to Construct Public Transport Hub by E18 and Arninge
    Press release August 2, 2019 NCC to construct public transport hub by E18 and Arninge Station NCC has been commissioned by the Swedish Transport Administration to construct a weather-protected pedestrian walkway over European route E18 and the Roslagsbanan light rail line connecting the new Arninge Station with Arninge retail park. The assignment also includes redevelopment of the Arninge interchange, several new bus stops, bus lanes and water and wastewater works. The contract is valued at SEK 355 million. Arninge Station will become a public transport hub for the northeastern municipalities in Stockholm County and connect the Roslagsbanan light rail line, and the new Arninge station, with bus rapid transit (BRT) to Stockholm, Norrtälje and Vaxholm and local bus routes to Åkersberga, Vallentuna and Danderyd Hospital. Parking for bicycles and park- and-ride facilities will be build adjacent to the Arninge travel hub. NCC’s assignment includes the construction of a weather-protected pedestrian walkway over European route E18 and the Roslagsbanan light rail line, including elevators and escalators for easy and safe access to bus stops adjacent to the E18 and local buses as well as to the new Arninge station on the Roslagsbanan light rail line. “We are looking forward to a productive partnership with the Swedish Transport Administration and will place great emphasis on minimizing disruption during the construction phase. The contract encompasses the construction of new infrastructure, which will benefit public and sustainable transportation, as well as water and wastewater works, and is well aligned with the expertise we possess,” says Ingegerd Simonsson, Regional Manager NCC Infrastructure.

  • Loan 2915-Prc: Jiangxi Fuzhou Urban Integrated Infrastructure Improvement
    LOAN 2915-PRC: JIANGXI FUZHOU URBAN INTEGRATED INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENT BUS RAPID TRANSIT (BRT)/ NON-MOTORIZED TRANSPORT (NMT) DESIGN, IMPLEMENTATION AND OPERATION SUPPORT I. INTRODUCTION 1. Sustainably supporting rapid urbanization is a key development challenge for the PRC, where 300 million people are expected to move to cities by 2020. Such mass migration will require a major expansion of second-tier cities such as Jiangxi Fuzhou to relieve pressure on existing urban centers and provide economic opportunities for vast numbers of people now engaged in agriculture. Major investments in urban infrastructure, transport, and related services will be necessary to accommodate development in second-tier cities and support sustainable urbanization and inclusive growth. 2. Fuzhou is a prefectural level city in Jiangxi Province. It has a total population of 3.8 million, of which 1.0 million is urban. The Fuzhou urban district where the project is located has a current population of about 500,000 and is expected to grow to 750,000 by 2020. In 2012, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) approved a loan to support the city (i) inclusive growth and balanced development by promoting sustainable urbanization and (ii) resource efficiency and environmental sustainability by promoting efficient and sustainable urban transport. 3. The project includes the following five main outputs intended to substantially improve the urban transport system in Fuzhou. Output 1: Bus rapid transit system Output 2: Urban transport hub Output 3: Fenggang River greenway Output 4: Station access roads Output 5: Institutional strengthening and capacity building 4. Output 1: Bus rapid transit system. The BRT corridor will extend 12.2 km from the north of Fuzhou through the central business district to the urban transport hub at the new railway station (output 2).

  • Marmaray Project - Turkey
    MARMARAY PROJECT - TURKEY Istanbul is a city where historical and cultural values must be preserved and at the same time modern railway facilities have to be installed to decrease the environmental impact of public transportation and increase the capacity, reliability and comfort of the railway systems. The Project provides an upgrading of the commuter rail system in Istanbul, connecting Halkalı on the European side to the Asian side with an uninterrupted, modern, high-capacity commuter rail system. Railway tracks in both sides of Istanbul Strait will be connected to each other through a railway tunnel connection under the Istanbul Strait. The line goes underground at Yedikule, continues through the Yenikapı and Sirkeci new underground stations, passes under the Istanbul Strait, connects to the Üsküdar new underground station and emerges at Sögütlüçesme. The entire upgraded and new railway system will be approximately 76 km long. The main structures and systems; include the immersed tube tunnel, bored tunnels, cut-and-cover tunnels, at - grade structures, three new underground stations, 37 surface stations (renovation and upgrading), operations control centre, yards, workshops, maintenance facilities, upgrading of existing tracks including a new third track on ground, completely new electrical and mechanical systems and procurement of modern railway vehicles. The idea of a railway tunnel under the Istanbul Strait was first raised in 1860. However, where the tunnel under the Istanbul Strait crosses the deepest parts of the Strait, the old-fashioned techniques would not allow the tunnel to be on or under the seabed, and therefore the design indicated a "floating" type of tunnel placed on pillars constructed on the seabed.
