1 Green Transit The Belgian way 11/12/2009 Belgium Embassy Washington MW 1
2 Green transit in Belgium Mobility in Belgium : figures In 2006, mobility in Belgium translated into more than 144 billion people/kms, or about 8,750 miles/inh. About 350,000 people commute to Brussels every day (10,5 million inh.). Transportation of goods represents yearly 95,000 MNS T /km. Transportation is worth about 66 billion, or 22% of all national expenditures, and 12% of household expenditures. For the years , the statistics of passengers/mile and tonnes/mile have grown at a pace of more than 2 % per year. 11/12/2009 Belgium Embassy Washington MW 2
3 Green transit in Belgium Mobility in Belgium : challenges Taking into account the size of the territory and the density of the population, congestion increase threatens mobility. Permanent need for new big infrastructures but rarity of space. Potential destruction of green areas. CO2 increase due to transportation increased with 29% between 1990 et 2005, whereas but Kyoto framework mandates a7.5 % decrease. Pollution in respect with the fine particles due to the automobile dieselization. Belgium s highly populated regions encounter huge hurdles respecting the European air quality standards. Security issue, with one thousand death and wounded in Federal system, district/states type political distribution. 11/12/2009 Belgium Embassy Washington MW 3
4 Green transit in Belgium The Federal Public Service Mobility The Ministry s strategies are dedicated to sustainable mobility, in the framework of the 1992 Rio Conference. The Ministry i makes proposals relating to mobility and transportation within ihi the Interdepartment Sustainable Development Committee (CIDD) and reports on the implementation of the two federal plans. Establishes harmonized policies between the federal and regional (state) levels with a view to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, in co operation with the Health Department. Contribute yearly to editing the National Communication on Climate Change and the Belgian Report on Demonstrable Progress under Article til 3.2 of the Kyoto Protocol. Other contributions include the Clean car Guide, and the Study Emissions of road traffic in Belgium /12/2009 Belgium Embassy Washington MW 4
5 Green transit in Belgium Scientific Policy Department BELSPO s 2005 (third) Science for a Sustainable Development ( ) - SSD research program has transportation and mobility as one of 8 priority research areas, financing i project like ADICCT (Assessing and Developing Initiatives of Companies to control and reduce Commuter Traffic), BMW (Behaviour and Mobility within the Week), ESTIMATE (A behavioural analysis and examination of environmental implications of multimodal transportation choice), MOBLOC (Mobilities and long term location choices) and ISEEM (Development of an integrated spatio-economic-ecological modeling framework for the analysis of overall impacts of sustainability policy measures), to the tune of ,000 each. 11/12/2009 Belgium Embassy Washington MW 5
6 Green transit in Belgium Federal Planning Bureau The FPB, through an agreement with the Federal Department of Mobility, is developing transportation indicators, constructing transport satellite accounts ands modeling tomorrow s transportation. The PLANET model is a long term transport model for Belgium aiming to construct a business asusual scenario for medium to long term passenger and freight transport, to simulate the effects of transport policy measures and to provide a social cost benefit analysis of these measures. LIMOBEL attempts to develop a fully operational modeling tool to study the impact of transport policies on the economy and on emissions, produce long term projections (up to 2030) of passenger and freight transport and establish a baseline scenario that will be compared with alternative policy scenarios for more sustainable transport. In the alternative policy scenarios packages of instruments will be considered, including pricing instruments, regulation and infrastructure measures. 11/12/2009 Belgium Embassy Washington MW 6
7 Green transit in Belgium 1. Manage demand Fédéral Council of Sustainable Development (CFDD Opinion on Transportation 2004) 2. Internalize external cost ( polluter payer /"roadpricing" roadpricing 3. Alternatives to car/plane (mass transit, bike, intermodality ) 4. Transportation Energy efficiency improvements 5. Act on city/town planning 6. Adop a national strategy of sustainable mobility 7. Develop and use mobility knowledge 8. Develop a new mobility model (schools, companies, consumers ) 9. Road safety 10. Break the vicious circle 11/12/2009 Belgium Embassy Washington MW 7
8 Green transit in Belgium Non transportation solutions > Flexitime ±46 % of the commutes occurring during the morning and evening hours happens between the domicile and the working place. When a business or a government agency converts to active mobility / flexi time, there is an immediate shift towards the use of more sustainable public transportation modes. Promotion of compressed workweeks, flexible work schedules, teleworking and telecommuting. The sustainability requires that the external impacts of transportation on people and the environment be taken into account when deciding to invest in new capacities or to use the infrastructure : reduction in the number of accidents, pollution decrease, reliability, security and affordability of the mobility offered. 11/12/2009 Belgium Embassy Washington MW 8
9 Green transit in Belgium Rivers «Diversion modes» > Inland navigation The inland navigation development agenda is inspired by the NAIADES (NAvigation Intérieure) in Europe. Within Europe, Belgian waterways are important with a capacity of 1,850,000 T and 1,500 boats representing 15% of the European fleet. In Belgium, in 2005, more than 168 millions de tons on the equivalent of 8 billion T/km were carried along a network of 1,500 km of waterways. The average increase the last five years was an average of 5 to 8 % per year. One inland vessel carries the equivalent of 40 trucks. Road transport accounts for 72,6% of transport of goods in Belgium. The sector employed in 2007, people and counts vehicles. One solution to reduce the foot print would be to promote the Long and Heavy vehicles (véhicules longs et lourds or VLL), also called «écocombis, EMC (European Modulair Concept), gigaliners, super ou mega trucks». Other states in Europe have studied this possibility pilot projects). Navigation and rail will be the main beneficiaries of the shift from road traffic to other transport modes, eg. unclustering orbital highways. 11/12/2009 Belgium Embassy Washington MW 9

11 Green transit in Belgium Antwerp Improvements > Public transport Redevelopment of city boulevards Extension of tram lines 11/12/2009 Belgium Embassy Washington MW 11
12 Green transit in Belgium Hasselt Attractiveness > Free rides The Flemish government launched a framework in the 90s middle and then Mayor of Hasselt, current Governor S. Stevaert, turned the Hasselt mobility into a showcase for freemass transit With the no fare policy, the use of public transportation immediately increased by % and has remained high, having grown 10 fold in the first decade. Passenger 1996 : 360,000 (100%) Passengers 2006 : 614,844 (1319%) 11/12/2009 Belgium Embassy Washington MW 12

14 Green transit in Belgium Rail Transformation > Reviving the rail The offer RER (réseau express régional or express regional network) must be constantly reviewed to meet the need or gain new customers. A study, horizon 2015 was launched with the 3 Regions. The national railroads, SNCB, as for its investment plan supported by the Federal Government, plans an increase of passenger traffic of 3,8% per year. This should increase the total number of passengers by 25% compared with As in the past it has increased its intake of container by 7%, it will have to increase its container traffic by 8% on the period The reduction of the infrastructure congestion is a priority to answer to the national and international needs. Infrabel will have to increase the quality, availability and reliability of its rail network between so that the number of in country travelers, of international travelers and freights (T/km) increases respectively by 25, 34 et 35%. Regarding the freight, the growth will be linked to the growth on corridors linked to the Antwerp and Zeebruges harbors. The companies must put in place an environmental policy in view of obtaining a EMAS or ISO14001 certificate for all the activities. iii 11/12/2009 Belgium Embassy Washington MW 14
