  • CHAPTER 5 Transport and Air Quality in Santiago, Chile
    CHAPTER 5 Transport and air quality in Santiago, Chile M. Osses1 & R. Fernández2 1Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Chile, Chile. 2Department of Civil Engineering, University of Chile, Chile. Abstract This chapter offers a review of the evolution of the transport system in Santiago de Chile during the period 2000–2010, and the implications of local transport policy on vehicle emissions and air quality. The chapter comprises five sections, starting with a general overview of the Metropolitan Region of Santiago and its population, as well as a description of the current transport system. The relationship between transport and air quality is analysed for the period 1991– 2001, describing car ownership and modal split trends, the technological evolution of vehicles, pollutant emissions from transport, and air quality trends. Finally, a critical review of Santiago’s transport policy is made, using the main programs of the 2001–2010 Urban Transport Plan for Santiago as a case study. The new public transport plan is included in this critical analysis (Transantiago), as well as a set of short-term strategies, road investment and car-use regulations, and non-motorized transport plans for pedestrians and cyclists in the city. Transport trends, however, show that Santiago is following the well-known car- public transport vicious circle that developed countries have gone through. This may offset the environmental effects from vehicle and transport improvements within the city. 1 Urban characteristics of Santiago The Metropolitan Region of Santiago, Chile, has a population of 6.1 million inhabitants, concentrating 40% of the whole population in the country. According to the latest census, the population of the Metropolitan Region of Santiago has grown by 15.3% during the last 10 years [1].

  • The Operator's Story Appendix: Santiago's Story
    Railway and Transport Strategy Centre The Operator’s Story Appendix: Santiago’s Story © World Bank / Imperial College London Property of the World Bank and the RTSC at Imperial College London 1 The Operator’s Story: Notes from Santiago Case Study Interviews – February 2017 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide a permanent record for the researchers of what was said by people interviewed for ‘The Operator’s Story’ in Santiago. These notes are based upon 11 meetings between 16th and 20th May 2016. This document will form an appendix to the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’. Although the findings have been arranged and structured by Imperial College London, they remain a collation of thoughts and statements from interviewees, and continue to be the opinions of those interviewed, rather than of Imperial College London or the World Bank. Prefacing the notes is a summary of Imperial College’s key findings based on comments made, which will be drawn out further in the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’. Method This content is a collation in note form of views expressed in the interviews that were conducted for this study. Comments are not attributed to specific individuals, as agreed with the interviewees and Metro de Santiago. However, in some cases it is noted that a comment was made by an individual external not employed by Metro de Santiago (‘external commentator’), where it is appropriate to draw a distinction between views expressed by Metro de Santiago themselves and those expressed about their organisation.

  • The Plan Regulador Metropolitano De Santiago: An
    Transactions on the Built Environment vol 23, © 1996 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3509 The Plan Regulador Metropolitano de Santiago: an integrated approach to urban transport planning? C.R. Rivasplata San Francisco Planning Department, 1660 Mission Street, San Francisco, California 94103, USA Abstract This paper reviews the urban transport component of the Plan Regulador Metropolitano de Santiago (Chile), a master plan for growth in the area. This planning document has important implications for transport planning in Santiago: it provides the groundwork for establishing linkages between land use zoning and transport investment decisions; it sets spatial limits to urban expansion; and it establishes a set of residential densities. One of the most difficult challenges for the Greater Santiago area is to develop a comprehensive master plan that will accommodate the transport needs of its 37 municipalities (comunas) and make the city a more desirable place to live. Some of the principal factors contributing to environmental degradation in Santiago, such as air pollution and traffic congestion, are caused by the inefficient provision of transport services. Therefore, it is important that this plan clearly define the role of urban transport in the economic development of the metropolis. This paper concludes that while the Plan plays a key role in the reduction of travel times, energy consumption and agricultural deterioration, it mistakenly proposes to satisfy increased travel demand through an expansion in road capacity and identifies roadway improvements that fall under the jurisdiction of individual comunas. However, many of these comunas lack resources and are unable to generate the revenues necessary to finance these improvements.
