Study Notes
Transport Planning Process
- Evolution: Transport planning has developed over 40 years, lacking clear theoretical foundations.
- Chicago Area Transportation Study: Influenced the current model for transport planning used today.
- Key Objectives: Initial focus is on estimating expected vehicle and passenger volumes over two decades to inform capacity increases.
- Stages of Transport Planning:
- Problem Definition: Identify issues and objectives.
- Diagnosis: Examine problem origins from various perspectives.
- Projection: Forecast future conditions, often challenging.
- Constraints: Consider financial, political, and environmental limits on alternatives.
- Options: Explore potential methods to achieve objectives.
- Formulation of Plans: Develop different transport packages.
- Testing of Alternatives: Model performance of each solution against objectives.
- Evaluation: Assess cost-effectiveness through analysis.
Transport Planning Model (TPM)
- Components of TPM:
- Trip Generation: Estimate trips in a zone, including productions and attractions.
- Trip Distribution: Allocate trips between zones.
- Modal Split: Determine trip distribution by transport mode.
- Trip Assignment: Assign trips to the road network based on origin-destination data.
Urban Transport Challenges in the Philippines
- Urbanization Rate: Philippines had 63% urban population in 2005, expected to reach nearly 70% by 2015.
- Population Growth: Significant growth from 48.098 million in 1980 to 76.504 million in 2000.
- Metro Manila Growth: Experienced 4.89% growth rate from 1960 to 1970, now at 2.04% from 2000-2007.
- Urban Challenges: 33 highly urbanized cities face severe transport issues, with an expected urbanization rate of 77% by 2030.
Factors Influencing Urbanization and Transport
- Urban Density: Key for understanding city function and how transport productivity may evolve.
- Geographical Factors: Location of resources drives transport routes and economic utility.
- Political Policies: Influence transport development and integration.
- Military Influence: Impacts transport infrastructure and policy support.
- Technological Advances: Foster new transportation modes and system improvements.
- Competition Among Modes: Encourages innovation and efficiency among transport modes.
Modes of Transportation
- Categories:
- Land: Road, rail, pipelines.
- Water: Shipping.
- Air: Aviation.
Funding for Urban Transport
- Motor Vehicle User's Charge (MVUC): Fund established under Republic Act No. 8794 for transport infrastructure projects.
- Local Funds: Lack of local transport data impedes project identification.
- Performance-Based Grants: Effective local grant management enhances transport funding accountability.
Environmentally Sustainable Transport (EST)
- Commitment to EST: Philippines promotes sustainable transport aligning with the UNFCCC agreements.
- Data Needs: Need for comprehensive data on vehicle registrations, public transport operations, and traffic accidents for planning effectiveness.
- Traffic Accident Data Systems: TARAS and MMARAS track and analyze road accidents to support safety planning.
Transport Investment and Efficiency
- Investment Levels: Identifying sources and utilization of finances is crucial for local government units (LGUs) capacity in urban transport projects.
- Data Integration: Essential for understanding budget allocations and improving transport systems.
