SUTRA [ Sustainable Urban TRAnsportation ] The Genoa case history Few remarks about the 24 -hours simulation 1. 24 -hours simulations “ 24 -hour” Private O/D matrix : derived from two peak-hours matrices (6: 30 - 9: 00 a. m. and 5: 00 - 8: 00 p. m. ) and adapted on the base of reliable traffic flow daily profile: 24 -hr Pr O/D matrix = 3, 30 * AM-peak-hour + 3. 15 * PM-peak-hour “ 24 -hour” Public O/D matrix: data not so precise as in previous case, (as suggested by Public Transport Agency), the two peak-hours matrices (6: 30 -9: 00 a. m. ; 5: 00 -8: 00 p. m. ) added and result multiplied by a factor 4: 24 -hr Public O/D matrix = (AM-peak-hour + PM-peak-hour)*4 Fifth framework programme of the European Community Environment and sustainable development ARPAL

Genoa – Baseline scenario (CO emissions)
SUTRA [ Sustainable Urban TRAnsportation ] The Genoa case history TREM: result analysis 1. 24 -hours simulations 2. VISUM Assignment 3. TREM simulations “Validation” of the TREM results: spatially disaggregated traffic emission through a comparison with “CORINAIR” emission coefficient: spatially aggregated (top-down approach) traffic emission Use of averaged emission coefficients developed by ANPA (Italian national Environmental Protection Agency) for typical Italian urban driving cycles. Comparison at “elementary data”: • Selected vehicle class (e. g. , pre-ECE, <1. 4 l) • Selected emission (e. g. , “hot”, “cold”) Fifth framework programme of the European Community Environment and sustainable development ARPAL

SUTRA [ Sustainable Urban TRAnsportation ] The Genoa case history Transportation system response to CSs: 1) Variation in time spent to cover a kilometer -In conditions of traffic congestion -In traffic Jams The “linear” town reacts in a more rigid way to exogenous pushes than the distributed town, this reflects in time spent to cover a km of network Fifth framework programme of the European Community Environment and sustainable development - Total 2) Ratio between Lisbon and Genoa ARPAL

SUTRA [ Sustainable Urban TRAnsportation ] The Genoa case history Concentration of pollutants in CSs: Geometry of the AQ stations network is projected to measure hot spot data, therefore city level averages are generally underestimated -Next refining will be analysis of values in a smaller monitored area Fifth framework programme of the European Community Environment and sustainable development ARPAL
SUTRA [ Sustainable Urban TRAnsportation ] The Genoa case history q Conclusion and Outlook: ü SUTRA has offered a unique opportunity to: • • • develop, calibrate and validate an “integrated transport & impact assessment modelling suite”; compare the obtained results with previous experiences; investigate future and city specific scenarios. 1. 24 -hours simulations 2. VISUM Assignment 3. TREM simulations 4. ISC simulations 5. VADIS simulations 6. Scenario analysis 7. Conclusions & Outlook ü A particolar attention has been done to “put and keep the results in context”, being both Genoa partner (Municipal Transport Office and Regional Environmental Agency) local operative Authorities ü Among the main trade-offs of the SUTRA project: • implementation of an operative transport model (that became the local standard); • synergy bewteen transport and environmental Authorities, as well as other UE partners; • disaggregation and detailed studies of local “hot-spot” for the main transport related pollutants ( recent EU “air quality” directives) Fifth framework programme of the European Community Environment and sustainable development ARPAL
