Prof. Allan Larsen was the principle supervisor of the Ph.D. student, while Associate Prof. (previous) Kim Bang Salling and Associate Prof. (previous) Alex Landex and Railway Section Leader Steen Nørbæk Madsen from Rambøll Denmark acted as co-supervisors. The title of the thesis is \Phase-based Planning for Railway Infrastructure Projects". The thesis is based on three academic papers and two conference papers. Two aca- demic papers have been published in international peer-reviewed journals which are ISI- indexed. The third academic paper is under review. The two conference papers are published/presented in a national peer-reviewed conference (Trafikdage 2013). All papers are co-authored. The thesis consists of seven chapters. The first six chapters (1-6) are the introduction to the included papers which are attached after chapter (6). In the introduction chapters, the first two chapters (1, 2) introduce railway infrastructure, present railway planning problems and the current planning challenges in real practices in Denmark. Following chapter (3) explains the concept of phase-based decision support system and illustrates the application of proposed Operations Research (O.R.) optimization models to solve the current planning challenges. Finally, the next three chapters (4-6) discuss the pros and cons for different railway maintenance planning strategies, highlight the contributions of the thesis, and conclude the main findings. The project was funded by the Danish Railway Sector Association (BaneBranchen). The Ph.D. studies were conducted between January 15th, 2013 and April 20th, 2017. viii | Ph.D. Thesis Rui Li | SUMMARY Maintenance for railway infrastructure is expensive and it often connects to a large cost investment. The maintenance work, which is implemented in track possessions, can also cause inconvenience to train operators and passengers. Therefore, Planning for mainte- nance and track possession is important in terms of economy and rail operations. This study presents two types of Phase-based Decision Support System (PDSS), i.e. Func- tional Phase-Based Planning Approach (F-PBPA) and Process-Oriented Phase-Based Planning Approach (PO-PBPA). They are used for decision support for the planning of the railway infrastructure maintenance activities at the strategic planning level. The objective is to achieve better economy, as well as improve cost efficiency. F-PBPA consists of five main phases: Data Collection, Technical Optimization (TeO), Economic Optimization (EcO), Constrained Optimization (CoO), and Evaluation. In this thesis, two railway planning problems are formulated in Mixed Integer Linear Program- ming: Railway Preventive Condition-Based Tamping Scheduling Problem (RPCBTSP), which is presented in Papers 1-2, and Railway Track Possession Scheduling Problem (RTPSP), which is presented in Paper 3. The proposed models are tested based on the real data collected from two Danish railway corridors. A comparison of the results obtained by using the proposed PDSS with the result obtained from the literature (RPCBTSP) and the current practice (RTPSP), shows a cost reduction for both scheduling problems. The proposed PDSS (F-PBPA) represents a step forward in solving railway scheduling problems. It can help Infrastructure Managers (IMs) gain a better understanding of the application of optimization in railway planning tasks. There are three optimization phases, TeO, EcO and CoO, that can be performed in sequence. First carries out a technical optimization (EcO), in which the minimal maintenance work can be identified by pure technical conditions. This is followed by an economic optimization (EcO), which results in an economic plan covering the same technically defined maintenance needs x while minimizing the costs. Finally, constrained optimization (CoO) includes additional constraints and it allows the railway expert to adjust input parameters, thereby to obtain alternative maintenance plans. PO-PBPA contains another systematic phase based process. With a focus on Life Cycle Cost (LCC), PO-PBPA can guide IMs, step by step, to estimate the total project cost for railway projects and to identify the solutions that are economically advantageous. Paper 4 suggests a new LCC framework for IMs to consider costs at the strategic planning level, and Paper 5 considers costs at the project planning level. The case studies show that LCC has influence on the decisions regarding the choice of the track possessions. Similarly, it appears that decisions may change compared to today's practice if other LCC elements are included into the cost estimation, e.g., passenger loss due to delay. A phase-based process such as the proposed PDSS, has great potential to support railway IMs to improve maintenance planning in practice, and reduce the overall costs without affecting railway infrastructure quality. | Ph.D. Thesis Rui Li | RESUME´ (DANSK) Vedligeholdelse af jernbanen er forbundet med store omkostninger for infrastrukturforval- teren, og udførelsen af vedligeholdelsesarbejder kan betyde sporspærringer der kan være til gene for togoperatører og passagerer. Planlægning af vedligeholdelse er s˚aledesvigtig b˚adeaf hensyn til økonomi og drift. Denne afhandling præsenterer to typer fasebaserede beslutningsstøttesystemer, hhv. funk- tions fasebaseret planlægning (F-PBPA) og procesorienteret fasebaseret planlægning PO- PBPA. Disse anvendes til beslutningsstøtte p˚astrategisk niveau til planlægning af pro- jektbaserede vedligeholdelsesaktiviteter, til at opn˚abedre økonomi for vedligeholdelsespro- jekter samt en forbedret omkostningseffektivitet.

  • AMPS Best Practices
    DRAFT 10/10/2014 1 Boulder Access Management and Parking Strategies Project Overview and Best Practices Research 2 Introduction to AMPS Access Management and Parking Strategy WHAT IS AMPS? The Access Management and Parking Strategy (AMPS) will update current access and parking management policies and programs and develop a new, citywide strategy to align with city’s sustainability goals. The City of Boulder’s parking management system has a long history. Parking meters were first installed on Pearl Street in 1946. Over the past decades, Boulder’s parking system has evolved into a nationally recognized, district-based, multi-modal access system (autos, transit, bicycling and pedestrians) along with parking in order to meet city goals, support the viability of the city’s historic commercial centers and maintain the livability of its neighborhoods. The goal of AMPS is to evolve and continuously improve Boulder’s citywide access and parking management strategies and programs tailored to address the unique character and needs of the different parts of the city. WHAT ARE THE ISSUES? Although the city of Boulder is a national leader when it comes to parking and access management, more work is needed to create a state of the art system that addresses new challenges: • Boulder has one of the highest bike and transit use rates in the country, but more work is needed to meet our sustainability objectives and climate commitments • Current regulations are out of date with respect to how much parking should be provided on certain sites considering

Baggrund og formål Passagerpulsen har i august og september 2019 fokus på stationer. Herunder blandt an- det passagerernes oplevelse af tryghed på stationerne. Dette notat indeholder en opgørelse over passagerernes tilfredshed med trygheden på tog- og metrostationer. Dataindsamlingen har fundet sted i forbindelse med dataindsam- lingen til Passagerpulsens Nationale Passager Tilfredshedsundersøgelser (NPT) i perio- den januar 2016 til og med september 2018. Notatet skal ses i sammenhæng med Passagerpulsens to øvrige udgivelser i september 2019: Passagerernes oplevelse af tryghed på togstationer1 Utryghed på stationer2 Notatet kan for eksempel anvendes til at identificere de stationer, hvor relativt flest passa- gerer føler sig trygge eller utrygge med henblik på at fokusere en eventuel indsats der, hvor behovet er størst. Vi skal i den forbindelse gøre opmærksom på, at oplevelsen af utryghed kan skyldes forskellige forhold fra sted til sted. For eksempel de andre personer, der færdes det pågældende sted eller de fysiske forhold på stedet.

  • Master Thesis
    Master Thesis Use patterns and climate impact of electric scooters under Danish conditions Environmental and Resource Management University of Southern Denmark Bjarke Slater Christensen: 425674 Balázs Tamás: 422786 June 2nd, 2020 Esbjerg, Denmark Supervisors - Knud Sinding. Associate Professor, Department of Sociology, Environmental and Business Economics at University of Southern Denmark. - Massimo Pizzol. Associate Professor, Department of Planning at Aalborg University. Contains: 151,781 characters, 53 figures and 8 tables. Equivalent to 73.4 standard pages Abstract After the first electric scooters were seen on the streets of Santa Monica in 2017 the rental business has spread to many bigger cities around the world. This paper explores the history of the electric scooter and examines the rental business model and the laws and regulations under which it operates in Denmark. Transportation patterns of electric scooter users are explored using mobility data from the company VOI and questionnaires conducted with a community of electric scooter enthusiasts. The results indicate different use patterns for rented and privately owned electric scooters, where privately owned scooters are used mainly for commuting and rented scooter for rides in the evening and night-time. A life cycle analysis from North Carolina State University was modified to reflect Danish conditions, showing emissions of 75.5 g and 33.2 g CO2-eq per passenger kilometre for rented and privately owned electric scooters respectively. Manufacturing and collection/distribution are the two main determinants of the greenhouse gas emissions, while the results are highly sensitive to the lifespan of the electric scooter.
