6 6 1 ARE ECO-LANES A SUSTAINABLE OPTION TO REDUCING EMISSIONS IN A MEDIUM-SIZED EUROPEAN CITY? Tânia Fontes, Paulo Fernandes, Hugo Rodrigues, Jorge Bandeira, Sérgio Pereira, Asad J. Khattak, Margarida Coelho University of Aveiro, PORTUGAL Old Dominion University, VA, USA.

7 1.1 Objectives 7 To develop an integrated microscale modeling platform calibrated with real world data to assess the impact of future TMS in an urban area; To evaluate the introduction of eco-lanes in different types of roads in a medium-sized European city and its effects in terms of emissions and traffic performance.

8 1.2 Study area: Aveiro, Portugal 8 Aveiro

9 1.3 Overall methodology 9 BASELINE SCENARIOS Road configuration INPUT Data collection Vehicle dynamics Microsimulation traffic model Microsimulation traffic model Traffic volumes MODEL OUTPUT Microscale emissions model Calibration and Validation Microscale emissions model Data output Average speed model Traffic signals Evaluation of eco-lanes: Traffic Emissions volumes Speed Travel profiles time AOV Travel Network times Modal distribution performance

12 Frequency Frequency 1. 6 Evaluation VSP distribution Observed Estimated VSP Modes VSP Modes FREEWAY S-C URBAN (S-C) Kolmogorov-Sminorv % CI no significant differences

13 1.7 Conclusions 13 Eco-lane: No significant impacts on network performance. Freeway - majority of passengers can reduce their travel (=5%) and (-3% CO 2, -14% CO, -8% NO X ); Urban corridor - reduction of emissions => only if the AOV 1.50; Arterial road - no significant time savings advantage; Incorporation of green vehicles in the HOV => little impact on the corridors performance.

14 14 2 Emissions impact of road traffic incidents using Advanced Traveller Information Systems in a regional scale T. Fontes, A. Lemos, P. Fernandes, S.R. Pereira, P. Fernandes, J.M. Bandeira and M.C. Coelho University of Aveiro, Centre for Mechanical Technology and Automation (TEMA) / Department of Mechanical Engineering, Aveiro - Portugal

25 25 4 Modelling Futures: Room for improvement... Validation of scenarios / ex-post analysis (are we predicting well?) Scripting language / APIs (Trade off: Time vs. results) National/regional database on model parameters (micro and macro), fleet data, OD patterns... Data resolution (interoperability) for model integration (traffic and emissions to Air Quality - GIS Interface; external optimization models) Real time data availability (considering the requirements for input to new modelling procedures)
