SOME PROBLEMS OF THE SYSTEM

• Barcelona has a hilly topography in some parts of the city. This results in users using Bicing mainly to make one-way downhill trips.

• The system needs a good service replacement of bicycles at stations in the high points.

29



MEASURES TO IMPROVE THE SYSTEM

• Introduce ELECTRIC BICYCLES (Dec’14)

• Service only for Bicing subscribers

• Fleet of 300 bikes

• 45 stations (32 in BSM’s car parks, 8 in private car parks and 5 on street)

• ELECTRIC BICYCLES for SPORADIC TRIPS (2014)

• A non-subscribers service (tourists…)

• Located at Central Bus Station

3. Legal mesures

TRAFFIC CODE REGULATIONS

• Regulates the use of the bike in the city taking into account the present situation

• Basically on the pavement and in pedestrian zones

• Regulation for the bikes on the public transport: It is allowed to carry bikes on the Tram, on the Underground during off peak

hours, and on the bus using a folding bike

• Adapting the existing reality of other widgets

55


4. Training educational

LOCAL POLICE TRAFFIC TRAINING AREA

The increase in the number of bikers means to be aware of everybody’s rights and needs, in order to compatibilize the public space use among different agents

56

Public Transportation

The new bus network


57


New bus network

59


Why?

60

The old bus network is the result of the expansion and extension of lines started more than a century ago.


Why?

61

• Duality between lines and other public transport

• Lack of logic in the network configuration

• Zig-zag paths that penalize regularity

• Low speed service

• Coverage varies depending on neighborhoods

• Loss of competitiveness with other modes of transport

• Loss of passage: 22 M validations decreased during the last years


The new bus network. New urban model: superblocks

62

New bus Network

• Easy to understand

• Not bus lines -> bus network axes


The new bus network. Main features

63


The new bus network

64

•Easy to understand and use

•Fast: Straight paths and stops gap

•Priority for the bus: Bus lanes and new traffic light settings

•More frequency

•More connected: Networking with other public transport

1. Readability

2. Effectiveness

3. Efficiency


The new bus network: exchange bus stop

65

Punts d’intercanvi


The new bus network: exchange bus stops I

67

• Interchange bus stops: Located on the intersection of axes. Transfer point with other bus lines, underground, tramway...

• Key to good functioning of the bus network: Best information for users

Urban Freight Distribution

Measures in progress: 1. Infrastructural

1.1. Urban consolidation centers (UCC) 2. Managament

2.1. Multipurpose lane 2.2. Night deliveries

3. Related to new technologies 3.1. App “Area DUM”


79


1. Infrastructural

SOME PROBLEMS OF THE URBAN LOGISTICS

• The urban configuration of some parts of the city, makes difficult the circulation of vans and trucks.

• Pressure over public space due to tourism and commercial areas makes difficult cohabitation between vehicles and pedestrians.

• Traffic vans and trucks is a problem in the pedestrian areas and generates constant maintenance of the pavement.

80


1. Infrastructural

There are different historical centers in the city

81

Pedestrian areas Barcelona, 2012. Information source: CartoBCN – Barcelone Guide. Open data Barcelona city Council.

Pedestrianization 2012

82

1. Infrastructural 1.1. Urban consolidation ceters (UCC)

• The transhipment point reduces the traffic of vans and trucks in the historic centers.

• The distribution is made by electric or assisted cargo-bikes, with less urban impact caused by its volume and no-emissions.

• This system doesn’t have the restriction of the “time windows”.

85

Studied sites for future candidate transshipment points in Ciutat Vella.


2. Managament 2.1. Multipurpose lanes

Dynamic demand over fixed offer. • These lanes allow to optimize

the use of public space. Operators can discharge into pedestrian areas before 11 a.m., and later using the multipurpose lanes when it is not the rush hour.

• The different utilizations of these lanes can be: Traffic or bus in peak hours, load and unloading areas during off peak and parking at night.

86


2. Managament 2.1. Multipurpose lanes

Different tecnologies: Vertical dynamic signaling and bright beacons on the pavement, or static (ordinary) vertical signposting.

87


2. Managament 2.2. Night deliveries

Management measures try to shift loading and unloading operations to off peak periods (specially at night).

The cost increase due to higher salary of labour, is balanced by the productivity achieve of using larger vehicles in less congestioned traffic conditions

88


3. Related to the new technologies 3.1. App “Area DUM”

Existing problems:

• Lack of available data

• Control of occupancy

• Difficulties to meet special demands

An App for smartphones is being implemented to assist the manual enforcement. It will allow:

• Get more reliable data

• Get a better enforcement of the loading/unloading areas

• Fit better the time for those users which request more than 30 minutes for their operations
