Urban Structure and Public Transport Fare Structure Urban structure and public transport fare structure: Comparison between polycentric and multipolar structures Eurocities DATTA 2nd Workshop Namur / January 8-9, 2009 Caroline Lemoine and Frédérique Prédali Eurocities DATTA 2nd Workshop Namur 1 Introduction What is IAURIF ? Planning agency for the Ile-de-France region International comparisons and (regional and local) studies Consulting This paper is based on a report for our partners (Regional Council and the transport authority, STIF) Is the Ile-de-France pricing system still adapted to its urban structure? Eurocities DATTA 2nd Workshop Namur 2 Urban structure and public transport fare structure: Comparison between polycentric and multipolar structures An overview of key characteristics of metropolitan areas and their fare structure To show how public transport fares are intrinsically linked to a corresponding urban typology Eurocities DATTA 2nd Workshop Namur 3 Contents Urban region structures : definitions of polycentric and multipolar concepts brief description of each metropolis Public transport fares : pricing schemes Commuting patterns Eurocities DATTA 2nd Workshop Namur 4 Urban region structures: definitions and examples Many concepts have been used to describe urban region structures and the literature on this topic is still not consolidated. “polycentric” metropolitan areas They all used to be monocentric but the urban sprawl of the dominant city has led to the integration in the metropolitan area of smaller cities. Examples : Montreal MMA, Greater London, Berlin-Brandeburg and the Paris region “multipolar” metropolitan areas In contrast, this structure of urban region do not have one dominant central city but several interacting main cores. All urban nuclei are of similar size.

Main city cores do not reach one-million inhabitants. The densities of the main cities are twice higher than the densities of the whole region. The gap between the main city density and the whole region density is higher in polycentric metropolis rather than in multipolar ones. The ratio in the case studies can vary between 2 for London, to more than 20 for Ile-de-France. Eurocities DATTA 2nd Workshop Namur 6 Density and urban distribution of population The Parisian metropolitan area has a high density, in particular in Paris city whereas the density of Berlin decreases regularly in function of the distance from the centre. Unlike other studied metropolis, the density in London is quite homogeneous whatever the distance from the centre is. The maximum density is located further away from the centre than for Paris and Berlin’s examples.

Eurocities DATTA 2nd Workshop Namur 13 Urban region characteristics : Rhine-Ruhr Eurocities DATTA 2nd Workshop Namur 14 Urban region characteristics : Amsterdam Eurocities DATTA 2nd Workshop Namur 15 Pricing approach : Distance-based fares structures can be of three types : • Kilometric : the price is calculated on the real distance travelled, users are unable to know it beforehand ; • concentric zones or ‘ring’ zones : the centre of the zones is usually the main city. Travelled distance is taken into account in an imperfect but simple way, that way users can easily understand how it works. Flat rates are applied inside each zone so distance for orbital trips is not considered ; • cell zones also called “combs zones” or matrix of zones because of the method used to calculate the price of radial and orbital trips : the transport perimeter is cut out in polygonal zones of similar size and price depends on the number of crossed zones.

  • Report of Activities 2008 Ok
    PRESIDENT’S FOREWORD Welcome to European Cities Marketing! ECM is a network of people who are driven by a desire to improve the level of tourism to our cities and who are open to sharing those experiences. It is about the friends that we have made and those working in city tourism that we have not met yet. After focusing on keeping all existing projects on track in 2007, it was time in 2008 to chart a course for the future. It was necessary for us to look and determine who we are and what we do and develop strong communication tools. I invite you to read the following report and discover in more detail the activities of European Cities Marketing. An organisation like ours will only get stronger with the support of all our members! Your support is the motivating factor that gives European Cities Marketing a unique culture that has driven success. Best regards, Frank Magee, President European Cities Marketing ECM MEMBERS IN 2008 Tourism and Conventions organisations from the cities and regions of: Aachen, Aarhus, Aberdeen, Aix en Provence, Amsterdam, Antwerp, Athens, Avignon, Barcelona, Basel, Belfast, Belgrade, Bergen, Berlin, Bern, Biarritz, Bilbao, Bologna, Bolzano, Bratislava, Bruges, Brussels, Budapest, Catalunya Tourism, Copenhagen, Cordoba, Coruna, Cracow, Cyprus, Dijon, Dresden, Dublin, Dubrovnik, Edinburgh, Espoo, Finland Convention Bureau, Florence, France Congrès, Friuli Venezia, Geneva, Genova, Ghent, Gijon, Girona, Gothenburg, Graz, Hamburg, Heidelberg, Helsinki, Innsbruck, Istanbul, Jyvaskylä, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Lausanne,

  • St. Julie's Canonization 1969
    Annals from the Archives St. Julie’s Canonization 1969 From left to right: Sisters Mary Linscott, Loretto Julia Carroll and Francois de St. Joseph Van Den Eede at the Canonization on June 22, 1969 SND New England Archives, 2013.91 ——No doubt the excitement experienced by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur during the months leading up to the long anticipated canonization of their Foundress in 1969 grew with every passing day. After all, it had been 63 years since Julie’s Beatification in 1906. Once the date—June 22, 1969—was announced, the sisters in New England began planning the trip, scheduling time to attend the canonization, as well as take part in a pilgrimage tour of many of the sites important to Julie’s life. One of the sisters selected to attend the canonization was Sr. Agnes Marguerite McGee, who kept a travel journal from 1957 to 1973. She began the journal while a member of the Notre Dame General Chapter in 1957. Hopes were high at the 1957 Chapter that Julie’s cause, which had been delayed for decades, would receive the final push needed to set a date in the near future for her canonization. After the Beatification in 1906, the Congregation expected Julie’s canonization to occur within a couple of decades. By 1923, though, when there seemed little chance of Julie’s cause being recognized, the sisters began another push with the hope of advocating that their Foundress be named a saint. As part of that effort, they submitted to the Vatican the cure of a man from Namur named Homer Rhodius.
