Background
Challenge
Working method
Results so far
Next steps

3. Background Region of Stockholm 2 million inhabitants
Constantly growing

4. The challenge - Planned roadwork

5. Existing knowledge, expertise and applications
Projects

6. Existing cooperations in the Stockholm region
Metropolitan group

7. + What is Mobility Management during construction? ”Hard” measures
Instruments
Travel planning
Measures for behavioural change
”Hard” measures
Improved public transport
Optima-zation of sustainable transport
MM during construction
MM for new PT
MM for events
MM for wokplaces
MM for bottle necks
MM for new residential areas +

8. Example application: Road 155
Reconstruction for improvements for traffic safety, public transport and accessibility for the harbour area. New pedestrian- and cycling-lanes
Objective for MM: Increased PT-share, decreased share of car traffic
MM-Measures:
Reserved bus-lane, ride-sharing and heavy transport (also after construction has finished)
Increased parking areas for P+R
Increased service frequency for busses
Information; announcements,
workplace-meetings, newsletter
Personal travel advice campaign
Results:
- 10% car traffic
+ 3% PT trips

9. Example: Calculation of potential
Gärdshemsvägen to Göteborgsvägen, E45 through Trollhättan
Increase from two to four lanes, improved cycle-lanes, etc
MM-measures:
Local travel plans for companies
Individualised marketing
Estimated costs due to disruptions: 4,5 million SEK
Estimated costs for MM- measures: 1,8 million SEK

10. What is missing?
Routine for Mobility Management during road construction in the National Transport Administration`s quality management system
Principles for and agreements about financing
Knowledge about effects and benefits of Mobility Management during road construction
General expertise at all involved actors

Trace 1: New routines
Literature studies
Interviews
Workshops and meetings
Trace 2: National decisions
Internal + external info

Draft for process for Mobility Management during road construction
Assessment of the need of MM
MM study
Cooperation agreement
Planning of MM-measures
Evaluation
Implementation of MM- measures

13. Step 1: Assessment of the need of MM
MM study
Cooperation agreement
Planning of MM-measures
Evaluation
Implementation of MM- measures
Assessment
Identification of likely disruptions
Size
Concerned means of transport
Timetable
Identification of stakeholders
Types (Residence, workplaces, trade, etc)
Target population (leisure travel, business travel, business travel, freight, etc.)
Conclusion
Proceed with MM
Only awareness raising
No measures at all

14. Step 2: MM study MM study Travel survey:
Assessment
Cooperation agreement
Planning of MM-measures
Evaluation
Implementation of MM- measures
MM study
Travel survey:
Target groups, travel habits, potential for change
Structural analysis
Current situation, weaknesses, additional measures
Description of measures
Analysis of travel survey and structural analysis, MM-measures
Efficacy analyses
Traffic, CO2, economics, costs
Organization
Timetable, responsible actors

15. Step 3: Cooperation agreement
Assessment
MM study
Planning of MM-measures
Evaluation
Implementation of MM- measures
Cooperation agreement
One responsible actor
Several responsible actors

16. Trace 2: National decisions
