Urban passenger mobility   Jari Kauppila Economiste | Chef de l’unite statistiques Eurostat Workshop on Passenger Mobility Luxembourg, 17 June 2014

International Transport Forum at the OECD An inter-governmental organisation with 54 member countries focussing on transport A think tank for global transport policy issues An annual summit of Ministers

Annual Summit 2014: Transport in a Changing World Ageing society By 2050, the global population 9.1 billion people (6.9 billion today) 22% of the population will be over 60 (11% today) Urbanisation Over 70% of the world’s population living in cities (50% today) Urban mobility presents a growing challenge Traffic congestion, pollution, safety, inaccessible and unreliable mobility options Attitudes to mobility Are consumer attitudes towards transport options changing? Mobility options continue to change significantly in emerging and developing countries, with shifts from person-powered to motorised vehicles How can demand in these situations be managed to curb longer-term issues?

Transport Outlook: Urban module Objective: Simulate urban context > how translates to transport and emissions By type of urban agglomeration, simulate travel/mobility/emissions by mode, at the urban level Outputs of the model: Urban bus and rail VKMs and urban car and motorcycle fleet Using MoMo model (IEA) - calculate fuel consumption and Co2 emissions at a global level under different fuel price and technology penetration scenarios Availability and comparability of data an issue

IRTAD cities Creating a road safety expert network at city level Assess the feasibility for a safety database at city level Nine cities in the pilot: Barcelona, Bogota, Chicago, Paris, New York, Copenhagen, London, Lyon, Lisbon Passenger-km is the most relevant exposure data to assess the safety level in a city The main challenge is to agree on a methodology to collect data on passenger-km for different modes (pedestrians, cyclists, public transport, cars) Discussing methodological issues regarding the collection and analysis of traffic safety data is already seen as an added value

Workshop on Urban Transport Data In preparation for the 2014 Summit on Transport in a Changing World (to be organised in the fall 2013 or early 2014) Platform for data providers and users to share experience on methodology, interpretation and limitations of urban transport data Comparison and discussion of practices - goal of facilitating a better understanding of the urban transport in general Looking also for innovative solutions Potential participants: Public transport operators (UITP), city and national representatives, research institutes (eg. TERI, Brookings etc), Transport NGOs (eg. CAI-Asia, ITDP, EMBARQ), “big data” providers (eg. Google, INRIX, Open Street Map)

Conclusions Our analysis is only as good as our data Good quality data and analysis are the key support sound policy and decision making Need for (better) passenger mobility data – especially at urban level Harmonization of methods and definitions Providing more detailed metadata on methods and definition used in existing surveys Creating a network to discuss related issues already an added value
