Impression 4 Shifting more traffic to trains and ships Martin Burkert, Member of the Bundestag and Chairman of the Commitee on Transport and Digital Infrastructure Main Topic Dear readers! 10 Germany’s volume of traffic is increasing all the time. The Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan recently passed by the German government assumes that goods transport will have increased by 38 per cent by 2030 as compared with 2010. In this market segment, trains are the number one choice among modes of transport thanks to their high capacity, reliability and security, particularly on long connections and in seaport hinterland transport, whilst lorries can be used flexibly at pre and post-stages. There is generally a consensus on the importance of combined transport. In practice, however, we need to make further efforts to actually shift more traffic to trains and ships. Handling facilities are a sticking point. The funding that has just been extended is indeed important. However, money alone will not solve the problems. Considerable funds remained unspent in the last funding period. Moreover, the promotion of intermodal Sustainability transport must not be undermined by other measures. For example, I see the approval of “gigaliners” as 16 counter-productive. In addition, what we need from the business world is more innovation and investment, for example in more modern freight wagons. Achieving more transport in a way that is affordable yet low in emissions – that is the challenge facing our country.

  • Verkehrsverbund: the Evolution and Spread of Fully-Integrated Regional
    Verkehrsverbund: The Evolution and Spread of Fully-Integrated Regional Public Transport in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland By Ralph Buehler, John Pucher, and Oliver Dümmler Abstract: Throughout the world, urban areas have been rapidly expanding, exacerbating the problem of many public transport (PT) operators providing service over different governmental jurisdictions. Over the past five decades, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland have successfully implemented regional PT associations (called Verkehrsverbund or VV), which integrate services, fares, and ticketing while coordinating public transport planning, marketing, and customer information throughout metropolitan areas, and in some cases, entire states. A key difference between VVs and other forms of regional PT coordination is the collaboration and mutual consultation of government jurisdictions and PT providers in all decision-making. This article examines the origins of VVs, their spread to 13 German, Austrian, and Swiss metropolitan areas from 1967 to 1990, and their subsequent spread to 58 additional metropolitan areas from 1991 to 2017, now serving 85% of Germany’s and 100% of Austria’s population. The VV model has spread quickly because it is adaptable to the different degrees and types of integration needed in different situations. Most of the article focuses on six case studies of the largest VVs: Hamburg (opened in 1967), Munich (1971), Rhine-Ruhr (1980), Vienna (1984), Zurich (1990), and Berlin-Brandenburg (1999). Since 1990, all six of those VVs have increased the quality and quantity of service, attracted more passengers, and reduced the percentage of costs covered by subsidies. By improving PT throughout metropolitan areas, VVs provide an attractive alternative to the private car, helping to explain why the car mode share of trips has fallen since 1990 in all of the case studies.

  • Inefficiencies in Germany´S Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan Kilian Frey*
    Transport Research Arena 2014, Paris Inefficiencies in Germany´s Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan Kilian Frey* Federal Environment Agency, Dessau, Germany Abstract In Germany, a federal transport infrastructure plan (FTIP) is drawn up every 10 to 15 years as a basis for decision-making as to which infrastructure projects should be realized in the upcoming years. A point raised in relevant debates is that less economically efficient new construction of motorways in regions with light traffic is sometimes preferred by political leaders over economically more efficient upgrading of motorways in congested regions. This contribution gives background information on the FTIP and presents results of a study in which 199 planned motorway construction projects from the Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan of 2003 in Bavaria were analysed. Benefit-cost ratio and political prioritisation were examined. The study gives explanations for inefficient prioritisation and discusses possibilities how to increase efficiency. A reasonable prioritisation of projects and a long-term financing system for motorway infrastructure could help to improve the situation faster and would also be more cost-effective. This also leads to better environmental sustainability. Keywords: Inefficiencies ; federal highways construction plan ; incentives in infrastructure planning ; prioritisation of infrastructure projects ; environmental sustainability ; highway maintenance. Résumé En Allemagne, un plan fédéral des infrastructures de transport (FTIP) est établi tous les 10 à 15 ans en tant que base pour la prise de décisions quant aux projets d'infrastructures devraient être réalisés dans les prochaines années. Un point soulevé dans les débats pertinents, c'est moins rentable la construction de nouvelles autoroutes dans les régions à faible trafic est parfois préféré par les dirigeants politiques au cours économiquement plus efficace amélioration des autoroutes dans les régions congestionnées.
