Tis is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. A hedonic model for estimating the efects of transit systems on real estate values is specifed and calibrated for the city of Naples. Te model is used to estimate the external benefts concerning property values which may be attributed to the Naples metro at the present time and in two future scenarios. Te results show that only high-frequency metro lines have appreciable efects on real estate values, while low-frequency metro lines and bus lines produce no signifcant impacts. Our results show that the impacts on real estate values of the metro system in Naples are signifcant, with corresponding external benefts estimated at about 7.2 billion euros or about 8.5% of the total value of real estate assets. 1. Introduction lower environmental impacts produced by less use of private cars, investments in transit systems, especially in railways Urban transit systems play a fundamental role for the social and metros, may generate an appreciable increase in property and economic development of large urban areas, as well as values in the zones served; this beneft should be explicitly signifcantly afecting the quality of life in such areas.

Hundreds of surficial and deep boreholes have been drilled, with the collection of about 3000 samples of soils, scums, slags, and landfill materials.

  • Sustainable Growth Management at Naples International Airport, Italy
    Environmental Impact IV 233 SUSTAINABLE GROWTH MANAGEMENT AT NAPLES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, ITALY MICHELE MIEDICO Naples International Airport, Italy ABSTRACT Naples International Airport is a perfect example of a “City Airport” as it is only 5 km away from the city centre. Managed by Gesac, in 2017 passenger traffic amounted to 8.6 million, with a rate of growth 3 times the European and Italian average. With the objective of sustainable growth, Gesac is currently adopting an integrated action plan, backed by a significant investment programme. Specific devices are used in the terminal to manage water consumption, which resulted in a 25% savings of potable water in the last year, despite the growth in passenger traffic. Like a small city, the airport produces 1,200 tonnes of waste. Sorted waste collection, which was 62% in 2017, has set a target of 65% for 2018 to be achieved by door-to-door waste collection. In order to reduce energy consumption, Gesac adopted a smart management system of lights and air conditioning in the passenger terminal and has begun the construction of a new power generation plant designed to produce enough energy to meet the aerodrome’s electric, thermal and refrigerating needs. These activities are included in the Airport Carbon Accreditation program, developed by the Airport Council International (ACI) to reduce emissions worldwide. Gesac is scheduled to obtain certification for the highest level (3+“Neutrality”) by 2018. Aircraft noise is a main issue in the sustainable growth domain. In 2005, Naples International Airport was the first airport in Italy to install a noise monitoring system and to control the noise abatement procedures and, consequently, to reduce its initial footprint by more than 26%, and the population exposed by 52%.
