Eidgenössisches Departement für Umwelt, Verkehr, Energie und Kommunikation UVEK Bundesamt für Raumentwicklung The Success of the Swiss Freight Transport Management By Ueli Balmer Deputy Head Transport Policy Section Swiss Office for Spatial Development

2 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Starting Point Rapid Growth of Freight Transport Modern Production Methods Single Market Growth happens mainly on roads Limits to transport growth Protection of people and environment Lack of Space and financial resources Consequence Growing Congestion Problems Need to look for Alternatives

3 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Driver for Rail Freight Policy: Transit Traffic

4 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / The Swiss Policy New Rail Infrastructure Heavy vehicles fee Railway reform Transfer to Rail Improve efficiency

5 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / HVF: Objectives Polluter pays Principle Environmental Protection Transfer to Rail

6 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Design of the Fee Vehicles with admissible Weight > 3.5t For Use of all Roads Performance-related Distance Weight (Vehicle and Trailer) Emissions (Situation since 2008) Euro 0/1/2: 1,8 €Cts/tkm Euro 3: 1,65 €Cts/tkm (from 2009) Euro 4-6: 1.5 €Cts/tkm

7 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Implementation Introduction HVF (Rate 1.0 Ct/tkm) Replacement of flat Fee (similar Eurovignette) Increase Weight Limit from 28 to 34t Raise HVF Rate to 1.5 Ct/tkm Increase Weight Limit to 40t Raise HVF to 1.65 Ct/tkm

8 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Use of Revenue Revenue 2006: 800 Mio € 1/3: Cantons 2/3: Confederation/Public Transport Fund New Rail Links across the Alps Rail 2000 Noise reduction High speed links

9 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / New Rail Infrastructure

10 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Rail Reform and Supplementary Measures Rail Reform: Improve efficiency Debt Relief Federal Rail Free access (increase competitiveness) Supplementary Measures: Support Shift Subsidies for Unaccompanied Combined Transport (UCT) Rolling Motorway Strict Control of HGV on the Road

11 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Impacts - Overview Impacts on Transport Impacts on Costs Effects on Transport Industry Effects on added value Effects on employment Regional Impacts Effects on Environment

12 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Impacts on Transport Driving Performance new/old regime

13 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Impacts on Transport Road Tonne Kilometers

14 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Impact Transport Rail Tonne Kilometers

15 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Impacts on Transport Modal Split

16 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Impacts on Costs Balance HVF/Productivity Gain

17 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Effects on Transport Industry Vehicle Fleet: modernisation Heavier trucks mainly in bulk transportation (cement, gravel) No shift to light vehicles <3,5tonnes Euro 3-5 vehicles (38% of the fleet) perform 56% of mileage Additional costs: low Over all 0,11% In sectors with intensive transport activities generally minor High productivity gains in bulk transportation Higher cost increase for building site and retail business % of cost increase could be transferred Rail: Situation slightly better Advantages in transportation of light goods Disadvantage in bulk transportation

18 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Added Value Road Transport New Regime Old Regime in Mio. SFR

19 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Employment Road Transport Comparison new/old regime Employment New Regime Old Regime

20 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Changes in Employment Road/Rail Compared to old regime Employment Goods Transport RoadGoods Transport Rail

21 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Comparison Added Value Road Rail in Mio. SFR Goods Transport RoadGoods Transport Rail

22 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Impacts on peripheral regions

23 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Additional costs for peripheral regions 25€/Employee (in comparison to others) Additional Charge in SFR per Employee in 2005

24 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Impacts on Environment (Aggregation effects Road/Rail)

25 Freight Transport Management / Barcelona/Ueli Balmer / Conclusions Road Transport Efficiency Gains (less vkm, more tkm) Employment stable (instead of growth) Cost effect partly balanced out by higher weight limit Cost increase could mainly be transferred Rail transport Situation slightly better than with old regime Share maintained (ca. 40%) Employment: positive (ca. 900 more than with old regime) Effect on inflation: marginal (0,11%) Effect on Environment: Positive Balance
