Transport System of UkraineVision of future

and present

Proposed by Group 3

Page 2: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Introduction

For modern people in Ukraine as in the whole world it’s impossible to refuse private cars or the automobile for transporting, that carry loads to

any place you want.

How to combine the needs of society and defense of environment?

What will happen if we just satisfy our wants ?

Why system is unsustainable?

The transport sector is a major growing source of greenhouse gas emissions.1

Constant growth of fuel consumption demand2

Complete dependence on non-renewable resources3

Lack of individual responsible behavior inpersonal movement and consumption.4

Lack of legislation and long-term planning.5

Our vision of transport system in future

Minimized environmental damageMinimized environmental damage

Minimized dependence on non-renewable resources and widespread using of

renewable resources

Efficient transportation, that we all need

Good quality of roads and another traffic communications

Page 14: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Mechanisms1

Traffic green time

Page 15: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Smart traffic regulation

Mechanisms1

Page 16: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Mechanisms1

Extra lanes for public transport

Special circular roads

for big transit vehicles

Public transport will have bigger

capacity (like two-stored buses)

Regulation of public transport movement, time intervals will be

strictly defined

•It will help to reduce quantity and prevent jams

Page 17: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Mechanisms1

Solving of parking problem

Unauthorized parking lead to traffic jams.

Transport damages environmental greatly while standing

BIG PROBLEM!“In the Bible there are a lot of stories from present times: even Noah was looking for

place to park during 40 days”

Robert Orben

Page 18: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Minimized dependence on non-renewable resources2

Petrol and diesel fuels are used in great amounts.

The oil use in Ukraine increases2% a year

High dependence of Ukraine oil market on foreign fuel supplies

Page 19: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Mechanisms2

Implementation of underground, overland and overhead rail transport which use electricity

Using accumulation of solar energy

Hatch of car roof issolar battery

for air condition

Electricity can be obtained from renewable energy sourcesRail transport is separated of automobile roads and it helps to discharge them

Page 21: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Public transport will use renewable resources like hydrogen fuel, ethyl alcohol, biofuel

•In the world there extends the use of biomass fuel –biodiesel and ethyl alcohol which have lower emission per energy unit

•Biodiesel can be produced from vegetable product (soy, sunflower) and also waste materials of animal fat. Now in many countries for practical use it is mixed with diesel fuel

•In Brazil ethyl alcohol made of sugar-cane forms about 40% of total fuel used by automobiles

Mechanisms2

Improving technologies of car constructingFor last 25 years we preferred large, heavy and fast automobiles, that damaged the environment

To limit emissions we must persuade customers to buy cars with law fuel use

If transport means become lighter and smaller then in the nearest 10-15 years amounts of fuel use may reduce on 20%.

Page 22: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Good quality of roads and development another traffic communications3

“Accidents happened because of using TOMORROW cars by PRESENT drivers on YESTERDAY roads withTHE DAY AFTER TOMORROW speed”

Vittorio De Sika

Mechanisms• Use of flexible and fair tax system: cheap vehicles – low tax, expensive cars –high tax. That money could be spent to renew our roads.

• Reduce quantity of trucks in city centers

• Encourage people to walk by foot and use a bicycle + building special roads for bicycle

• Legislative mechanisms like increasing of road taxes (for roads repairing) for non-economical vehicles which pollute atmosphere.

Page 23: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Governmental measures

Effective tax policies and discount system.

§ For example when buying heavy and non-economic car the consumer pays much more than buying small economic car.

§ Implementation of new technologies of car building must be stimulated by government.

Page 24: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Indicators

How can we measure progress towards sustainability?

-emissions of transport-percentage of people using public transport, which is

easier to make ecologically clean (the more people really use it the better is transport system)

-average fuel use for one car a year-percentage of renewable energy use-the quantity of cars per area unit-percentage of area under asphalt coat (these lands

do not breathe, do not product oxygen)

Page 25: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Indicators

- total passenger and cargo turnover by air, ship, road, rail transport

- average distance for people to get to their jobs.- quantity of accidents per year

- number of basic services (schools, shops…) within walking distance

- portion of population with access to Internet connection

Page 26: 22.02, Group 3 — Concept of sustainable development in built environment

Conclusion

If we don’t change present situation it’s going to be… very bad.

So, think about sustainable development of transport in Ukraine
