    Delays and Timetabling for Passenger Trains CARL-WILLIAM PALMQVIST FACULTY OF ENGINEERING | LUND UNIVERSITY 2019 317 Travel by train has increased steadily for the last 30 years. In order to build trust in and shift even more traffic to railways, more trains must arrive on time. In practice, many train delays are caused by small disturbances at stations, which add up. One issue is that the scheduled dwell times are simply too short. Another is that punctuality falls quickly if it is either warm or cold. A third is that interactions between trains rarely go as planned. One suggestion for how to reduce delays is to paint markings that show where passengers should wait. Another is to remove switches, so that remaining ones can be better maintained. A third is to make railways more resilient to the weather variations of today, and to the climate changes of tomorrow. Cost-effective improvements can also be made with timetables. More of the planning can be automated, so that planners can focus more on setting appropriate dwell times and on improving the timetabling guidelines. This way, many more trains can be on time.

Projektledare: Madeleine Nilsson, [email protected], Region Skåne. Projektledare för Skånes del i OECD TR Megaregion Western Scandinavia 1 Foreword Region Skåne and the City of Helsingborg, together with partners in Western Sweden and the Oslo region, have commissioned the OECD to conduct a so-called Territorial Review of the Megaregion Western Scandinavia. A review of opportunities and potential for greater integration and cooperation between the regions and cities in Western Scandinavia. This report is a brief summary of the supporting data submitted by Skåne to the OECD in December 2016 and mainly contains regional trends, strengths and weaknesses. The report largely follows the arrangement of all the supporting data submitted to the OECD, however, the policy sections have been omitted. All the data sets have been produced by a number of employees of Region Skåne and the City of Helsingborg. During the spring, corresponding reports have been produced for both Western Sweden and the Oslo region. The first study mission was conducted by the OECD in January 2017, where they met with experts and representatives from Skåne and the Megaregion. In late April, the OECD will be visiting Skåne and the Megaregion again with peer reviewers from Barcelona, Vienna and Vancouver for a second round of study mission. The OECD’s final report will be presented and decided upon within the OECD Regional Development Policy Committee (RDPC) in December 2017, and subsequently the OECD Territorial Review Megaregion Western Scandinavia will be published.
