Social The social role of transport has Formation of settlements caused people to live in Size and pattern of settlements permanent settlements and has Growth of urban centers given chances of sustainable Political developments. Regarding political Administration of an area role, large areas can now be very Political choices in transport easily governed with the help of good transportation system. The Environmental environmental effects are usually Safety Pollution viewed negatively. Energy Consumption Information from Prof TV Matthew’s lecture Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING Urban Transportation Studies for Metro Manila ü Urban Transport Study for the Manila Metropolitan Area (UTSMMA, 1973) ü Metro Manila Transport, Land Use and Development Planning Project (MMETROPLAN, 1977) ü Metro Manila Urban Transportation Integration Study (MMUTIS, 1999) ü Metro Manila Dream Plan (2014) Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING Urban Transport Study for the Manila Metropolitan Area (UTSMMA, 1973) The project was implemented from March 1971 to September 1973 with the assistance of the Government of Japan’s Overseas Technical Cooperation Agency (OTCA), the precursor of today’s Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). Being the first comprehensive study for a metropolitan area that was yet to be formally consolidated and called Metro Manila, UTSMMA set the stage for future transport studies for the metropolis. Among the study’s main recommendations is one proposing for a mass transit system restricted to railways. A Rapid Transit Railway (RTR) network was recommended in the form of subways in the inner area bound by EDSA, and elevated in the suburban areas. Brief descriptions of the proposed lines are as follows: Line 1 (27.1 km) – from Construction Hill to Talon via central Quezon Boulevard, Manila downtown and the International Airport Line 2 (36.0 km) – from Novaliches to Cainta via Manila downtown and Pasig Line 3 (24.3 km) – Along Highway 54 (C-4): half a circle route about 12 km from Manila downtown Line 4 (30.1 km) – From Marikina to Zapote via Cubao, Manila downtown and the Manila Bay area Line 5 (17.6 km) – From Meycauayan to Manila downtown running between Line No. 2 and PNR PNR improvement (56.4 km) – From Bocaue to Muntinglupa via Tutuban Station https://d0ctrine.com/2014/09/03/urban-transport-study-in-manila-metropolitan-area-utsmma-1973/ Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING Metro Manila Transport, Land Use and Development Planning Project (MMETROPLAN, 1977) It identified three main strategies to address issues on traffic congestion and public transport requirements, namely: Cordon pricing, Bus lanes, and LRT Short-term recommendations focused on bus and jeepney operations, recommending that: Standard buses (non-airconditioned) be designed for more standing passengers and charge a fare affordable by the poor; Premium buses (including Love Bus) be designed for seated passengers and charge a higher fare; this may be used to cross-subsidize Standard bus operations; Metro Manila Transit Corporation (MMTC) bus operations should operate missionary routes, which are generally unprofitable routes. In reference to private bus companies, the project states that “properly regulated competition” provides best course of action for the foreseeable future; Jeepneys are suited for low demand but high frequency service “Heavy Rapid Transit (HRT) would provide public transport passengers with much faster journey, but by 1990 would attract only 2.5% of motorists and would have negligible impact on traffic congestion. Partly because of this and partly because of its very high capital cost, it would be hopelessly uneconomic: the annualized capital costs would be higher than the estimated benefits in 1990…passenger flows are not high enough to exploit its full capacity…and the large savings in time for public transport passengers are not given a high value in Manila, and are not high enough to persuade motorists to change mode. https://d0ctrine.com/2014/09/03/urban-transport-study-in-manila-metropolitan-area-utsmma-1973/ Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING Metro Manila Transport, Land Use and Development Planning Project (MMETROPLAN, 1977) Metro Manila Module 1: INTRODUCTION Dream Plan (2014) TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING It identified 3 major urban problems in Metro Manila Traffic congestions Natural disasters (flood, earthquake, typhoon, landslide, etc.) Affordable housing, slum/squatter areas Shift from radial/circumferential to ladder form High density residential areas in city center → suburban Development of peri-urban/suburban areas Development of subcenters Recovery of green space Redevelopment/retrofitting of city center areas Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING The Metro Manila population is estimated at 12 CAPACITY EXCEEDANCE million but swells during the daytime, to about 15 million. https://businessmirror.com.ph/2018/03/18/when-can- Metro Manila Dream Plan, JICA 2014 Comparison on the Left Side and Right Side Application of the Bus Lane Images from Google commuters-find-light-at-the-end-of-the-mrt-3-tunnel/ https://tjpalanca.com/posts/2015-05-16-mrt-capacity-conundrum/ Figures from 2020 Tom Tom Index from CBPRD Congress Report Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING INTER-OPERABILITY OF EXISTING SYSTEMS Constraints on Space/Land Different Technical Use, Technical, Financial, Poor Asset Specifications Preservation/Maintenance Varying Operators and Legal Matters DPWH DGCS (Design, Guideline, Criteria, AASHTO Provisional Standards and Standards AREMA Manual for Railway Engineering NSCP Volume 2 Source: JICA Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING LOSS/LACK OF MANPOWER AND CONTRACTORS https://www.bworldonline.com/content.php?section=Economy&title=lrt-6-delayed&id=133241 https://www.thedailystar.net/frontpage/bangladesh-budget-2018-19-jobs- https://www.compareremit.com/money-transfer-guide/contribution-of-the-ofw- there-not-right-skills-1588234 to-the-philippines-economy/ http://pagba.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Challenges-in-Procurement.pdf Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING SAFETY AND SECURITY https://rappler.com/nation/pnr-cctv-fences-safety https://cnnphilippines.com/news/2019/12/30/rizal-day-bombing-security-pnp.html https://www.philstar.com/opinion/2019/09/11/1950878/ metro-manila-subway-along-flood-fault-lines https://www.gmanetwork.com/news/news/nation/720259/trains-damaged-in-14-stone-throwing-incidents-in-december-2019-says-pnr/story/ Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING ALIGNMENT AND ROW ISSUES https://www.interaksyon.com/breaking-news/2018/06/21/129137/is-the- proposed-mega-manila-subway-aligned-with-west-valley-fault/ https://r3.rappler.com/business/industries/208-infrastructure/62118- smphi-tro-mrt-lrt-common-station-denied https://rappler.com/business/right-of-way-issues-delay-mrt7-completion https://www.philstar.com/business/2019/10/21/1961816/tugade-says-no-more-change-alignment- subway- project?fbclid=IwAR3QT9r7AODcjqwm6juHh44iMguWf8KYLvGDY5HnMEAPvgAn9kPRM9Rxp4I Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING HIGH COSTS (DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION, O&M) https://www.adb.org/news/philippines-adb-sign- loan-milestone-malolos-clark-railway-project https://www.interaksyon.com/politic https://governance.neda.gov.ph/govt-faces-higher-cost- s-issues/2018/10/30/136927/dalian- for-mrt-3-om-with-use-of-china-made-trains/ mrt-3-trains-controversy-installation/ Cost and Capacity (PPHPD) for Railways https://www.gmanetwork.com/news/money/econo https://news.abs-cbn.com/business/04/02/19/metro-manila- my/397806/psa-data-shows-subsidy-to-metro-rail- subway-project-may-face-higher-cost-delays-analysts systems-reach-p8-billion-in-2012/story/ Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING INTANGIBLE CHALLENGES Behavioral challenges Traffic in Metro Manila and other cities are often traced back to commuters and drivers lack of discipline Most of the traffic management measures operate on a regulative level, one of the 3 pillars supporting our institution (1. regulative 2. cultural-cognitive 3. normative) In 2017, 84% of Filipinos said they were planning to purchase their own car in the next 5 years. Available data from 2011 to 2018 from the Chamber of Automobile Manufacturers of the Philippines Incorporated (CAMPI) showed that car sales shot up by 28.9% in 2015. The main reason why people choose to private vehicle mode is that it offers departure-time and destination-choice flexibility Slide and information from Engr. J. Rodriguez Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING INTANGIBLE CHALLENGES Mismatch between Design and Practice There will be problems when big vehicles that are intended as high-capacity modes behave like a local mode, stopping everywhere to pick up and unload passengers. Similarly, there are problems when an arterial road is used as a collector or local road where vehicles can stop anywhere. Summary from JICA Report on Project for Capacity Development on Transportation Planning and Database Management Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING INTANGIBLE CHALLENGES Non Implementation of Plans Failure to implement plans over three decades have spawned severe traffic congestion, heavy air and water pollution, lack of affordable housing and swaths of blighted zones. These problems are compounded by the region’s vulnerability to natural hazards (flooding, landslides, and earthquakes). Nearly all roads have reached saturation point – leaving little wiggle room for traffic management to ease the situation.

Trains operate following a schedule, at speeds varying from 50 to Characteristics of light rail transit are as follows: 200 km/h (30 to 125 mph). Characteristics of commuter rail are as capability for operation in mixed traffic, generally follows: resulting in a narrower car body and articulation in order providing more seating and less standing room, for the longer to operate in a traffic street environment distances involved can provide much higher speeds and passenger having (in most cases) a lower frequency of service volumes than a streetcar/tram having scheduled services (i.e. trains run at specific times can be cheaper to construct by using the ability of LRVs rather than at specific intervals) to turn tighter curves and climb steeper grades serving lower-density areas, typically by connecting suburbs to the city center sharing track or right-of-way with intercity or freight trains not fully grade separated (containing grade crossings with crossing gates) Module 1: INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING Railway Classification METRO / SUBWAY RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEM HIGH-SPEED RAIL system of transportation that suspends, guides and propels passenger rail transport that operates significantly faster than the vehicles, predominantly trains, using magnetic levitation from normal speed of rail traffic.
