1 Indicators for Sustainable Urban NO2 Transport CO2 in Europe CO2 Overview and examples NO2 NO2 CO2 CO2 CO2 NO2 Henrik Gudmundsson PhD., Chief Advisor, CONCITO Expert Group Meeting on Planning and Assessment of Urban Transportation Systems September 2016, Kathmandu, Nepal
2 Henrik s Background Chief advisor in Cities and Transport at CONCITO Green think tank, Copenhagen 10 year as Senior Researcher in transport policy at Technical University of Denmark 18 year as head of section/researcher in the Danish Ministry of Environment Contributions to several European and national projects, expert groups, scientific publications etc. on sustainable transport New book: Sustainable Transportation - Indicators, Frameworks and Performance Management Springer 2016 (co-authors, Hall, Marsden, Zietsman)
3 Overview 1. The role of indicators in Sustainable Transport Assessment 2. The European Union Sustainable Transport policies 3. Examples of European assessment frameworks and indicator systems for urban transport City Statistics European Green Capital Award, CIVITAS indicators 4. Summary
4 Indicator systems are essential for Sustainable Transport Assessment Transport systems have multiple impacts of significance for Sustainable Development Complete knowledge and models of sustainable transport systems are not available; approximations are needed Policy goals and measures for sustainable transport need to be assessed ex ante, monitored in real-time and evaluated ex post? What is not measured and compared cannot be managed and improved
5 Definition and role of indicators Indicators are variables that are selected to represent key properties of systems and phenomena of policy interest Indicators are measurable using quantitative or qualitative values, but do not provide complete information on systems or phenomena Indicators are intended and used for descriptive, normative or prescriptive assessments of sustainable transport From Dublin Dashboard
6 Different applications of indicators Describe and Inform What is going on? Review and Explore How are we doing? Diagnose and Explain How did we get here? Plan and Decide What should we do? Account and Compare Who accomplished what? Improve and Learn How can we do better?
7 Frameworks are essential Indicators are embedded in frameworks that are conceptual and procedural constructs Frameworks organize how indicator systems are designed, managed, and applied Concept What to measure? Intention Why to measure? Frameworks provide focus and structure Procedure How to measure?
8 Some indicator framework types Type Features System Measuring transport system conditions and performance, State of repair, Traffic vol., Mode split Pillar Measuring according to Environmental, Economic, and Social impacts of transport Emissions, Costs, Access Goal Performance compared to specified goals and performance targets, reduce delay 10%, 0 fatalities Chain Measuring along causal chain, typically for environment policy PRESSURE STATE IMPACT Pressure, State, Response DRIVING FORCE RESPONSE
9 Provocative finding Political decision makers gather information and do not use it; ask for more information and ignore it; make decisions first and look for relevant information afterwards; and collect and process a great deal of information that has little or no direct relevance to decisions.

10 Different forms of knowledge use Types of use Instrumental use Conceptual use Symbolic use Tactical use Explanation To support decisions to act To serve as a signal Frame the perception and structuring of a problem with no direct use Reference without drawing any consequences; decisions already made Use as an excuse, e.g. to postpone action Non-use (self-explanatory) Sources: Gudmundsson & Sørensen (2013); Weiss, CH (1988)
11 European Union 28 member states Annual budget of 145 bill 508 million inhabitants 72,3% live in cities, towns and urban areas Urban transport in Europe: 23% of transport CO2 69% of traffic accidents Many cities exceed air quality limit values due to transport
12 EU: Complex institutional set-up!? European Commission proposes European policies and legislation Member States (Council) and the European Parliament adopts European legislation Member states implement European policies and legislation Various institutions monitor European systems, policies and legislation
13 Key European policy areas Exclusive competence Shared competence Competence to coordinate member states Competence to support member states Customs union Competition rules Monetary policy (for euro area Conservation of marine resources Commercial policy Certain international agreements Internal market Social policy Cohesion Agriculture and fisheries Environment Consumers Transport Energy Security; Justice Public health Research Development Humanitarian aid Economic policy Employment Social policies Improvement of human health Industry Culture Tourism Education Civil protection Administrative cooperation
14 Some EU Sustainable Transport goals Decoupling economic growth and environmental impacts Modernizing the EU framework for public passenger transport Reducing transport energy use and greenhouse gas emissions (new cars: 95 g CO2/km by 2020) Reducing pollutant emissions Shift towards environment friendly transport modes Reducing transport noise Halving road transport deaths by 2020 compared with 2011

30 Examples of good practices Copenhagen as World s best city for bicycles At least 50% will go to work or school by bike Number of seriously injured cyclists cut by half At least 80% of cyclists feel safe and secure A reduction of transport CO2 by 20% Aosta Green Logistics Cityporto Unloading goods to the city Distributing goods with low-carbon vehicles Streets, squares have greater appeal The service has created new job opportunities
31 CIVITAS Capital indicator set Focus: Hosted by: Coverage: Frequency - Type: Approach 28 indicators in Nine topic areas Comments: Sustainable Mobility Planning CIVITAS All European cities (intended) Voluntary Indicator set Based on literature review and interviews Focus on what cities need Discussed with six cities Travel Patterns; Accessibility; Speed and safety Walking; Cycling; Public Transport; Cars and parking Socio-economic impacts; Environmental impacts Not based in sustainable framework (TBL) Not applied in full in any city
32 Description for each indicator: Definition Purpose and goals How to gather data Example of city use
33 Interviews with advanced cities Edinburgh, Copenhagen, Paris, Lyon, Stuttgart and Zurich Similar indicators are used, but often not exact same Far fewer the 28 indicators are normal Main use of data is for planning, policy monitoring, sometime statutory reporting, not benchmarking Typical comment: Interesting set of indicators but who would pay for costs of extra data gathering?
34 Ranking indicators using 5 criteria C1: Relevance for one or more of the sustainability dimensions (environment, social, economic), or measuring key transport system features C2: Representation of all urban modes, especially SUMP compatible modes such as walking, cycling and public transport, but also motor vehicles C3: Alignment with data and indicators that many cities use already C4: Easy data collection, preferably with standard concepts and methods C5: Actionability and decision relevance for a city, including for urban planning, financial allocation, and communication C6: Support reporting for key European urban transport policy goals, such a GHG emissions, alternative fuels, traffic safety, congestion, ICT/ITS deployment
35 Indicators with highest scores Category Travel Patterns Accessibility Speed and safety Walking Cycling Public Transport Cars and parking Social impacts Environmental impacts Indicator with highest score Modal split Density (land use) Safety people killed and seriously injured Accessibility of outside built environment Extent of on-street cycle network Public transport service per capita Car ownership Citizen satisfaction with transport system CO 2 emissions from transport per capita
36 Summary EU No official European monitoring of urban transport (yet) Not mandatory set of indicators or index for Sustainable transport in European cities Several voluntary assessment frameworks are offered by the European Institutions and professional bodies General Sustainable Development/Quality of Life frameworks Specific sets of indicators for urban transport Assessment and scenario tools to support development of new plans Self-evaluation tools for sustainable urban transport plans Will the EU deliver an Urban Transport Scoreboard?
37 Limited integration across frameworks City Statistics (Urban Audit) Number of private cars registered Length of bicycle network (dedicated cycle paths and lanes) Reference Framework for European Sustainable Cities (RFSC) Transport system Number of personal cars per adult Bicycle lanes and paths proximity Percentage of pedestrian streets and walkways European Green Capital Award (EGCA) Length of cycle lanes (meter/inhabitant) Accessibility to public transport stops Population living within 300 metres of hourly public transport service Roads maintenance Investment in transport infrastructure Travel patterns and behavior factors Share of journeys to work by mode Traffic modal split for persons Share of journeys under 5 km made by private car (%) Modal split of freight transport Average time of journey to work (minutes) Congestion index Average length of journey to work by private car (km) People commuting in and out of the city Cost of a combined monthly public transport ticket Passenger transport prices in the central zone Cost of a taxi ride of 5 km to the centre at day time Satisfaction with level of public transport services Number of deaths in road accidents Satisfaction with level of public transport services Transport impacts Transport energy consumption Traffic light using LED Number of companies with Green Travel Plans Transport ton CO2/inhabitant Share of buses classified as low emission vehicles (%)
38 Communicative Frameworks CIVITAS ELTIS Program to promote cleaner, better transport in cities. Started 2002 Over 200 cities have been involved Good Practice exchange, guidance and research Urban Mobility Observatory Website and knowledge hub Started 2004 Training material, case studies, guidance on SUMP Urban transport News
39 Summary for European cities Cities need and use indicators but not always the same The need for indicators depend on purpose and applications Large variation in how much cites use indicators Limited interest in benchmarking and comparison New issues such as Smart City will require and allow new types of indicators
40 Advanced city example Website:
41 Challenge... If indicators are too simple -> They may be misinterpreted If indicators are too complex -> They may not be applied If indicators are too few -> They may be misused If indicators are too many - > They may be ignored High agreement regarding domains; Medium agreement about topics; Limited agreement about specific indicators What is the role for local, national, regional or global frameworks?
