Towards Sustainable Urban Areas by means of SUMP
Quality of life citizens can be expressed by prosperity, well-being and other indicators:
Wellbeing : satisfaction with lifeProsperity: consumption goods and services
Individual characteristics: health, living, education, free time, employment, mobility, etc.Environment: safety, equity, social participation, nature, good governance, air quality, clean soil, clean water, noise, etc.
1111
Towards a new mobility pattern as mobility is indispensible
Promote sustainable ways of transportationProvoke citizens, groups and entrepreneurs to chose STReward sustainable transportation (tangible/visible)Allow ST to dedicated areas as exemptionStimulate, fiscal or financial (user/polluter principle)Force enterprises /institutes to choose for ST of employees and goods (permitting, ordinance,..)Forbid/restrict car access (times and places)Authorities should be a shining example
1212
Urban planning and Noise
Intensification urbanisation (80% rule, less car use)Speed up actions proposed by European Union regarding curbing fossil fuelled cars by 2030 and 2050Improve availability and quality of Public TransportFacilities for quiet and clean vehicles such as
Free parking placeFree electric charging polesBetter access to facilities
Limited parking space (housing, offices)Sustainable good deliveries (clean, quiet, energy friendly)
1313
Road design
Quiet road surface
Positioning lanes, service- and biking/walking lanes
Optimised for less annoyance (road network)
Neighbourhood design
Car restricted/free
PT stops at short distance, nodes to connect
Quiet Areas and Green
Orientation and lay-out of sensitive buildings
Closed façades
Double façades
Sensitive rooms at the back (quiet) side
Urban planning and Noise II1414
Conclusions
We cannot stop car mobility, no way to ban the iron horse at all, it’s valuable for economy, quality of life, etcIt’s hard to change human behaviour [INTERNOISE2010]
should pull and push?educate and socialisation
Urbanization helps a little (80% and less car use)Sustainable Urban Mobility is a must! SUMP’s(Plug-in) Hybrids and Electric Vehicles are allowed to enter urban areas; Conventionally fuelled cars are presumably prohibited as from 2050 (EU), are there ways to speed up?
