Cooperative transportation management vision or illusion?

Megatrends the toughest questions of our time

Demographic change World population will continue to grow rapidly (up 26% by 2030). In addition, societies in both developed and emerging nations will continue to age.

Urbanization Today, half the worlds population lives in urban areas. The number of megacities with more than ten million inhabitants has increased tenfold in the last 50 years.

Climate change Climate change is a fact. It is a serious man-made environmental challenge, threatening humanity as well as the biosphere. Innovations are the strongest levers to combat its negative consequences.

Globalization Global economic growth is unequally distributed among the worlds individual regions. Globalization leads to growth and prosperity in those countries that participate in this process.

Megatrends pose urgent challenges to cities

Demographic change Climate change

Urbanization Globalization

Increasing mobility Traffic congestion on city streets in Western Europe will increase 188% by 2010

Growing demand for health- and elder care Urban air pollution causes an estimated 130,000 premature deaths each year in developing countries (Source: WHO) Growing demand for safety and security Malfunctions of critical infrastructures pose high risks to urban economies: in 2003 3-day power outage in New York City caused loss of 1 bn USD

Increasing scarcity of natural resources Cities directly or indirectly account for 60% of world's water use

Growing need for environmental care Cities cause 80% of the greenhouse gases, but they cover only 0.4% of the earth's surface

50 % of the passengers travel during 25 % of our operating hours

Massive differences in demand between the morning/evening rush hours and the rest of the time. Market growth further accentuates this disparity between different periods of the day. The concentration of transport volumes at specific times of the day is not a phenomenon specific to public transport. It is also a feature of road traffic.
