Alexandria Toll Road in Egypt Future of Tolling Infrastructure in the Middle East Region Zeina Nazer, MSc P.E. MBA Secretary General ITS Arab IBTTA 79th Annual Meeting 13 September 2011 Berlin, Germany Agenda • The Middle East Context • Current and future tolling infrastructures in the region • Dubai Salik • Abu Dhabi Congestion Charging • BOT Toll road in Syria • Qatar- Bahrain causeway • Toll systems in Tunisia • Toll systems in Turkey • Conclusions and Recommendations The Middle East Context • The Middle East has some of the highest population growth rates in the world, with the UAE at the very top of that table. • Based on the World Bank figures, the population in MENA has grown from 127 million in 1976 to 450 million just 40 years later. It is set to double again by 2050. • There are over 22 separate economies in Middle East ranging from resource rich states in the Gulf to populous but resource poor states in Africa • The population explosion, concentration in cities, and generally undeveloped public transport systems, mean that the road systems in most of the major GCC cities have become heavily overloaded. This has an impact on economic efficiency. Governments in the region recognise this and are developing plans to tackle these challenges. Tolling in the Middle East So Far... Three models Manual Toll Plaza: Egypt King Fahd Causeway (Saudi Arabia – Bahrain) Tunisia Morocco Mixed: Open Road/ Automatic Card Payment/ Manual: Turkey OGS/ KGS/ Manual Qatar Bahrain Causeway Open Road – Multi-lane Free Flow (MLFF) Dubai Salik Current Toll Roads in the Middle East • Dubai RTA Salik – MLFF • Egypt – Cairo/Alexandria Toll Road (upgrade from Manual to ETC) • King Fahd Causeway linking Saudi Arabia to Bahrain (upgrade from Manual to ETC) • Tunisia Highways (more toll system on the South Highway tendered) • Turkey Toll Road – mixed manual/ ETC/ MLFF Future Road Pricing in the Middle East • Abu Dhabi Congestion Charging (Feasibility Study) • Qatar – Bahrain Causeway (40km) (design phase ETC) • Yemen – Djibouti Causeway (Feasibility Study) • BOT Toll Road in Syria (linking Lebanon to Iraq and Turkey to Jordan) (Feasibility Study) • Kuwait 4th and 8th Ring Roads (currently being upgraded) • Maghrebine Highway connecting Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia • Turkish Toll Roads (Additional Toll Roads planned) Dubai Salik Free Flow System • Increased demand on highways and road network. • Government constantly build larger roads, widening some to as many as 16 lanes. • Part funded by tolls: Dubai's Roads & Transport Authority (RTA) introduced the Salik electronic toll collection scheme in July 2007. • ETC has propelled Dubai towards regional leadership in the use of Road User Charging (RUC) to enable high-efficiency charging in the urban environment • Potentially, a best-in-class charging scheme when the system reaches full operational capability. Dubai Salik Free Flow System • Dubai Salik (MLFF) 4 toll gates opened in July 2007 with 4 additional gates opened in September 2008. More gates to be open soon. • Congestion Charging plans currently on hold. Dubai Salik Free Flow System Key objectives of Salik toll system are to: • Signal the cost of road usage • encourage the use of public transport and funding its upgrade; Dubai Metro Phase I opened on 09/09/09 recently modernised buses (improved schedule, bus stops and new vehicles) Abra water transport across Dubai Creek • Increase adoption of carpooling, • Increase operational efficiency of Sheikh Zayed road • Reduce CO2 emissions and noise by reducing stop-start traffic. “...Implementing RUC is perhaps the only sustainable approach to demand management and an effective measure to encourage the adoption of other travel modes from the addictive convenience of private motoring”. Dubai Salik lacks Public Acceptability A road user charging scheme needs: > Research and studies to identify a feasible business case, including clear social, environmental and economic benefits. > Public discussion in the media etc. to raise awareness of congestion problems and road pricing as a possible solution. > Legislation to enable charging and enforcement. > Complementary measures including: improved traffic management, public transport, car sharing, flexible working hours, etc. > Pilots to make solution more tangible to road users and to reduce procurement risk. > AND… a critical mass of stakeholder buy-in “ when Charging for an existing road government authorities should help road user recognize and measure the benefits of paying a charge. Abu Dhabi • Projects (Ongoing) - Develop tolling / cost recovery strategy - Develop and implement Abu Dhabi - Dubai Road (50Km) - Identify priority measures to reduce congestion, develop and implement Congestion Management Plan - Develop PPP guidelines and legal framework for PPP - Congestion Charging Feasibility in city of Abu Dhabi already completed Abu Dhabi Abu Dhabi Vision 2030 • Abu Dhabi Strategic Plan 2030 will provide an integrated road and transportation system that will facilitate people and goods movement while improving safety levels. • The plan will address the current congestion problems, accommodating future needs by increasing the share of public transportation, and decreasing the over-dependence on private vehicles including building MASDAR vehicle free city. • Abu Dhabi higher quality transit (paid for by public funds) and discounts for local residents – these serve to improve public acceptability for RUC planned for the future. Abu Dhabi Vision 2030 (Extract from Vision 2030 Exec Summary: Transportation (p15- 16)) • Abu Dhabi Strategic Plan 2030 will provide an integrated road and transportation system that will facilitate people and goods movement while improving safety. • The plan will address the current congestion problems, accommodating future needs by increasing the share of public transportation, and decreasing the over-dependence on private vehicles. • Abu Dhabi higher quality transit (paid for by public funds) and discounts for local residents – these serve to improve public acceptability for Road User Charging planned for the future.

  • Dubai 2020: Dreamscapes, Mega Malls and Spaces of Post-Modernity
    Dubai 2020: Dreamscapes, Mega Malls and Spaces of Post-Modernity Dubai’s hosting of the 2020 Expo further authenticates its status as an example of an emerging Arab city that displays modernity through sequences of fragmented urban- scapes, and introvert spaces. The 2020 Expo is expected to reinforce the image of Dubai as a city of hybrid architectures and new forms of urbanism, marked by technologically advanced infrastructural systems. This paper revisits Dubai’s spaces of the spectacle such as the Burj Khalifa and themed mega malls, to highlight the power of these spaces of repre- sentation in shaping Dubai’s image and identity. INTRODUCTION MOHAMED EL AMROUSI Initially, a port city with an Indo-Persian mercantile community, Dubai’s devel- Abu Dhabi University opment along the Creek or Khor Dubai shaped a unique form of city that is con- stantly reinventing itself. Its historic adobe courtyard houses, with traditional PAOLO CARATELLI wind towers-barjeel sprawling along the Dubai Creek have been fully restored Abu Dhabi University to become heritage houses and museums, while their essential architectural vocabulary has been dismembered and re-membered as a simulacra in high-end SADEKA SHAKOUR resorts such as Madinat Jumeirah, the Miraj Hotel and Bab Al-Shams. Dubai’s Abu Dhabi University interest to make headlines of the international media fostered major investment in an endless vocabulary of forms and fragments to create architectural specta- cles. Contemporary Dubai is experienced through symbolic imprints of multiple policies framed within an urban context to project an image of a city offers luxu- rious dreamscapes, assembled in discontinued urban centers.

    Transportation There are numerous options for public transportation services and most of the drivers speak some English, but their language may be limited. It is therefore very important you know exactly the address of where you are going so you can give them direction if necessary. Dubai Metro Recently opened, the Dubai metro is a wonderful asset to establishing a life in Dubai. As the city grew from the desert sands it spread over 50 Kilometers with countless districts, roads under construction and aggressive drivers. The metro enables people to calmly travel the breadth of the city, and explore the layout and opportunities in this exciting city. The trains are computerized, immaculately clean, comfortable, safe and inexpensive. The green line is not operational however the signage is in place. Currently, the end station is Ibn Battuta, not Jebel Ali. You can’t use the system (RTA) without a plastic travel card. There are 4 options available and all are explained on the internet. For general information look up, www.rta.ae You can also go to any station that is operating and take from the acrylic rack a well written booklet, “The Handy Guide to Using Dubai Metro” or ask the station personnel in blue uniforms. They will answer all of your questions. You pay a sum for the card, then add credit that gets automatically deducted when you “tag” your card upon entry to the trains. All stations have well maintained washrooms, lifts and access for people with special needs. No food or drink is allowed. Dubai Bus System The bus system is equally reliable however the routes change as the new metro stops become operational.

  • Dubai Tram: (A Safe and Smooth Transport for All) 591 Thousand Users for Completion of 6 “Roads” & “Salik” Apps Garages for Trucks
    The Official Monthly Magazine of Dubai`s RTA Issue No. 80 February 2015 Dubai Tram: (A Safe and Smooth Transport for All) 591 thousand users for Completion of 6 “roads” & “salik” apps garages for trucks Safety of Passengers Since its inception, the RTA adopted roads safety and paid much attention and care to it, as safety is one of the most important pillars of our business. The RTA vision includes both principles of security and ease and thus its vision is (A Safe and Smooth Transport for All). Commitment to the procedures of security and safety of passengers in mass transit is one of the most fundamental values that cannot be compromised or relinquished under any circumstances. Based on this well-established strategy, the RTA has adopted additional preventive measures to raise the level of traffic safety at intersections controlled by light signals on the path of Dubai Tram in which the tram movement overlaps with the movement of vehicles or in which the vehicle traffic parallels to the tram path in the same direction. These measures included preventing some turnings to the left towards the tram route at six intersections in the marina and Jumeirah Beach Towers. The RTA put other alternatives for these intersections including the use of nearby circumventions and junctions that lead to the required destination. Ensuring the safe use of the roads network and mass transit means requires cooperation from all the road users whether the vehicle drivers or pedestrians, by full compliance with the traffic rules as well as commitment to the signboards and speed limits, particularly on the roads adjacent to the tram route.

Salik Student No: 412112 Supervised by Professors Rumen Pozharliev and Willem Verbeke In partial fulfillment of the requirements To obtain a degree in MSc in Business and Economics (Specialization in Marketing) Erasmus School of Economics, Erasmus University Rotterdam June 2016 Abstract Better self-regulatory competency in children had been closely linked with better academic performance, better adjustment, and the ability to cope with frustration and stress, among many others. Self-regulation among (N=159) preschoolers aged 41.0 to 84.9 months of various socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds living in the Netherlands, the Philippines and United Arab Emirates were evaluated using W. Although significant difference on the performance on the marshmallow test was detected on age and income, there were no significant differences across ethnic backgrounds, income-to-needs ratio and body mass index (BMI). Correlation between performance index and ethnicity was also found to be significant. Pertinent policy implications of these findings were thoroughly presented towards the end of this paper.
