4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The study analyses, collects and elaborates the social, environmental and economic impacts detected in Romania through the implementation of SEE-ITS demonstration activities. In order to have a clear and wide view of the concrete and possible impacts of such applications, two main analyses have been conducted: An Area Type Evaluation And a Transfer of impacts. The Area Type Evaluation aims to assess the social, economic and environmental impacts of an ITS on different territorial level: pilot and/or local level, regional and national level. It shows how the benefits tested and detected during demonstration activities would be absolutely relevant in case of a large deployment of ITSs. Thousands of travelling hours would be avoided using the already available (from a technological point of view) systems for traffic management, for example. The natural consequence would be a reduction of accidents, of social costs, and an increase of safety levels. But also the implementation of a Web Application for cyclists and pedestrians would impact not only on these categories, but on also on the whole Modal Share of a city or region, reducing the use of private cars, and thus of the emissions and fuel consumption. An impact or benefit can be (or appear) as limited if considered as one single and punctual application, but is relevant and surprising if it assesses on city, regional or national level. In the second step of this study, the impacts of an ITS piloted within the SEE-ITS project have been transferred to our country in order to assess the effects and the benefits also in other countries, and therefore in other contexts and situations. This has allowed simulating a crossing test and check of the six ITSs piloted within project Demo-Activities, multiplying analysis and elaborations. The transfer of impacts helps the understanding of which ITS is more specific and consistent for the different countries. Deliverable D6.1.5: Impact assessment study of ITS applications in Romania 3

7 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. Purpose and Scope of this Report In the present activity the impact assessment of the ITS applications, conducted in task 5.3, will be transferred to other regions and scaled up at larger geographic areas. Thus, the activity explores the main options for achieving the objectives of the ITS services and analyses their likely impacts in the economic, environmental and social fields. The scope of this task is to evaluate the performance of the ITS piloted services at network level aiming at quantifying the benefits of the system when applied to larger areas. At the same time, the benefits of each individual ITS service will be transferred to each Demo activities. The network under study can be comprised of city streets and/or interurban roads, depending on the characteristics of the service to be examined, while the wider area extension can be local, regional or national. The results of this activity will provide input to activity 6.2 in which the advantages and disadvantages of each ITS system will be outlined and possible synergies and trade-offs will be examined. The examination of synergies will follow an area type evaluation, namely for each type of area level (local, regional, nationally) all possible interrelationships will be explored and analysed, setting the basis for further more technical procedural integration. Besides the importance of understanding the impacts of the ITS at network level, the results of this task are going to provide also inputs to the Cost Benefit Analyses, to be elaborated under WP Methodology The proposed methodology includes the scaling up of the impacts of the systems demonstrated under WP5 from local to regional and national levels. The scaling up process will follow the assessment methodology developed in the framework of the Compass4D project 1. More specifically the proposed statistical extrapolation/scaling up methodology will allow the scaling up of the results obtained by the demonstrations evaluation activities under 5.3. The statistical methods, used in several previous related studies (Zwaneveld and Arem 1997, Maccubbin et al. 2008, Chiara et al. 2009, Klunder et al. 2009), are based on the measurements of real world impacts/benefits coupled with transport-related statistics for weighting these benefits and obtaining scaled up ones to regional and national levels. The methodology requires as the first step, desktop research of statistical data at city, regional and national level related to the tested scenarios. These general data are the multipliers that allow assessing impacts on different levels as to transfer impacts of Demo activities in all the other countries. The second step is to collect through the activities of WP5 (5.3) major impacts/benefits, as resulted through the application of the ITS services per Demo Site. Due to the fact that not all the impacts are suitable for all the Demonstrators, an indication of the impacts to be 1 Deliverable D6.1.5: Impact assessment study of ITS applications in Romania 6

8 considered by each partner for the national pilot project is provided in the documents. Impacts are expressed in terms of percentage of reduction or increase and are referred to the measure unit with which are expressed the statistical data. The matching of statistical data on various levels with impact rates at urban level provides an assessment of the impacts on the Environment, Society and the Economy of the city, region or country for each of the 8 countries. Finally, an analysis of the impacts that are expected at national level in case of the application of the Demo activities performed in the other considered countries is conducted. In order to apply this activity, a validation of the expected impacts at country level of other Demo activities is performed by each partner together with ITS experts. Using the same mechanism previously described (matching between statistical data and impact rates) the forecasted impacts in view of a future implementation of all the considered pilots project are provided as conclusion of this document Organization of this Report Chapter 2 provides a brief description of the Demo activities performed in each participating country and groups them for commonly analysing and assessing the suitable impacts of each. Chapter 3 includes the guidelines and the methodology for developing the desk research and provides statistical data to be collected. Chapter 4 identifies the considered impacts at Environmental, Social and Economic level and defines a rate for each impact that is generally an expression of the percentage of reduction/increase (or a range of percentages) of one specific aspect/impact. Chapter 5 presents the local impact of the national demonstrator according to the evaluation performed in activity 5.3 and develops the scaling up methodology for the calculation of the impact at regional and national level. Chapter 6 analyses the impact that would be transferred in the other participating countries thanks to the application of the demonstrators implemented within SEE-ITS project activities by the other partners.

Thessaloniki Pilot-site: advanced travel information services The demonstration activities focus on advanced traveller information services based on optimal use of real time traffic data. The outcome of the data fusion combined with the use of Dynamic traffic assignment and simulation software for the estimation of traffic condition of the road network in the near future ensure the provision of the real time information regarding the traffic condition of the road network to the end users Patras Pilot-site: travellers information The demonstration activities focus on information provision to travellers, with optimal use of road and traffic data, on main local and regional corridors and in conurbations, data security and protection, and liability issues and European ITS cooperation and coordination. The demonstration area covers urban and peri-urban corridors and the activities foresee data security, protection & liability system design as well as the supply and installation of equipment, the development of standardized interfaces to traffic management based on DATEX and the development of driver information applications for the web Vienna Pilot-site: cooperative traffic management The demonstration activities focus on cooperative traffic management. The existing systems ( are merged with complete new mobility approaches in the area of cooperative systems. The demonstration shows hand-held systems presenting traveller information based on existing state-of-the-art TIS systems with having cooperative information from the Test field Telematics embedded. This is a big step towards Cooperative Traffic Management Solutions Timisoara and Danube Area Pilot-site: ITS deployment for road networks The Romanian Pilot is a multimodal traffic information solution/route planner that covers four different modes of transport. The pilot system brings together relevant traffic information from public transport; railway, road and inland waterway transport and provide multimodal routing strategies. The main objective of the pilot solution is to assist a traveller in selecting a multimodal trip. The system uses data from all modes of transport, combines them in order to provide accurate travel time and the best selection of modes of transport. Deliverable D6.1.5: Impact assessment study of ITS applications in Romania 8

10 The Romanian Pilot covers a trip on a selected corridor that starts in Timisoara, goes thru Bucharest and ends in Constanta 2.5. Hungary Pilot-site: intermodal travel planning services The Public Transport Route Planner for Cyclists (hereinafter as the TUK, Tömegközlekedési Útvonaltervez Kerékpárosoknak ) program package was created on commission of the Hungarian Transport Administration, within the framework of the project entitled "Southeastern European Programme SEE/D/0099/3.2/X. SEE-ITS" on a research trial (pilot) basis. It aims to demonstrate that it is possible to create such an intermodal route planning application for use with today's generally available mobile phones of average capacities that satisfies the following conditions: Capability to take the timetables of more than one mode of public transportation into account, including the transfer options among them so that in between two closely situated stops potentially bicycles should be used. Ability to perform route planning from its own database offline (without Internet access). The program is expected to make up its own data base from the GTFS format national timetables of the railway services (MÁV), Budapest public transport services (BKK) and the Danube ferries (altogether 297 MB), with the use of such effective data storage where the combined size of the database should not exceed 10 MB. The route search operation should not take longer than a few seconds even with the use of the national database. The TUK program package has been successfully completed; it meets the requirements, and thus proves that the task is technically feasible. The program package consists of the following components: TUKMobile: Android mobile phone application (main program) TUKAdmin: Operator desktop program to load the updated GTFS databases Server-side devices: Server modules running on the updating webserver Emilia Romagna Pilot-site: dangerous goods monitoring The pilot project pursues in-depth knowledge and aimed to assess the conditions of risk arising from emergencies due to accidents involving the transport of dangerous goods. The primary goal of the feasibility study is to assess the development of a centre for real-time monitoring of the transit of dangerous goods. To this end it is useful to determine points and directions of the transport network more related to the occurrence of events linked to the themes of the project. The goal is therefore Deliverable D6.1.5: Impact assessment study of ITS applications in Romania 9

17 4. EXPECTED IMPACTS 4.1. Demo-Sites Impacts Through activity 5.3 of WP5, major impacts/benefits of the ITS applications have been identified. In the table below the main impacts resulted from WP5 are shown. Due to the fact that the demonstration activities focus on different ITS service (see paragraph 1), the impacts are not all suitable for each demonstrator. For this reason in the following table it is shown the relation between SEE-ITS demonstrations and expected impacts (indicators).

22 6. TRANSFER OF IMPACTS EVALUATION 6.1. Impact assessment of other demo projects in Romania In this chapter, the benefits produced, estimated and evaluated from the demonstration activities under WP5 are being assessed for Romania. In order to assess the impact of the other demo systems, ITS Romania validated, and where necessary, modified the reference value of the original demo. Once the validation/modification performed, the impacts are assessed at local, regional and national level using the statistical datasets as provided in a previous section.
