Transcript of Integrated Mobility: Connecting EVs to Everything Else
Integrated Mobility in the City of Pasadena
How electric vehicles, technology, and alterna:ve transporta:on all fit together in a 21st century City

What’s On a Street?

bikes
des:na:ons
people
skateboards
cars
parking
buses
drivers pets lanes
police
trucks
signals
boxes
lights
bike parking
stripes
driveways
places

Streets…
• Dictate our op:ons • How we travel • Our routes • …but are oOen ignored

A Person Typically… Des:na:on
Time
Cost
Social
Work
Play
Work • Car • Bus • Rail
Play • Car • Carpool • Bike
Social • Car • Carpool • Rail
MODE
Electric Vehicles are…
• Another mode • Not a car

And will have to fight for its slice of the modal pie

…why fight? SOV Car

…when we can balance

The Car…
• Has a designated role in the American lifestyle
• Is op:mized for the present infrastructure
• Has innate benefits

Re-‐think…
• The streets • The modal balance • The policies • The data collected

EVs won’t work…
• If they’re looked at individually • EVs work when complimented with other mode choices and correct density/land uses
www.thealannote.com
Pasadena • The City of Pasadena currently has
– The Metro Goldline – Many TOD sta:on sites – Trip Reduc:on Ordinance – ARTS Bus – EV Charging Sta:ons – Suppor:ve BIDs – Pasadena Sustainability Plan (Green Team)
www.thealannote.com
…to become EV ready • The City of Pasadena is implemen:ng – Bicycle Master Plan – Complete Streets LOS – Upgraded ITS – Streetcar – EV infrastructure plan
www.thealannote.com
Bicycle Master Plan • Will inform residents the best routes to bike
• Set clear design standards for bicycle infrastructure
• Let bicycling become more predictable and a^rac:ve for casual user
www.thealannote.com
Complete Streets LOS • Go beyond assessing level of service for cars
• Puts the car on the back burner
• Priori:zes buses, pedestrian, bicyclist
• Creates smarter intersec:ons and more balanced streets
www.thealannote.com
Upgraded ITS • One cannot compute the LOS of new modes without upgraded infrastructure to get accurate inputs
• Will priori:ze bikes, peds, cars, buses once LOS is determined
• Rebalance the streets
www.thealannote.com
Streetcar • Fixed route transit that compliments bus and light rail
• Increases density • Fixed route, easy to predict transporta:on mode that integrates with bicyclist
• Economic development benefits
www.thealannote.com
EV Infrastructure Plan • One cannot throw charging sta:ons in the wind
• Strategic and coordinated efforts between DOT and Public Works must occur to ensure safety, effec:veness, and installa:on
• Once EVs are established, charging sta:ons can act as business catalyst
www.thealannote.com
There is not an EV Ready City …in America • Sea^le, WA has made lots of noise with Ecotality
• San Diego, CA is on board • Richmond, VA is finding the right partners • San Fransisco, CA has made EVs mainstream
www.thealannote.com
…but none • Has :ed it together to ensure that EVs are an op:on and not a primary mode
• Pasadena is on track
www.thealannote.com
What does it take? • A new perspec:ve on data • A new set of policies • Public – Private Partnerships • Correct Demographics • Correct densi:es • Correct Land Uses

If all of this doesn’t happen… • EVs have a good chance of becoming a commodity vehicle like the Neighborhood Electric Vehicles, and Segway
www.thealannote.com
If that happens…we won’t fix any mobility problems
