BERGANTIN INSTRUCTOR CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES INTRODUCTION TO TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING Module 1 CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES INTRODUCTION Highways, railroads and different kind of transportation have all played a major role in the development of the society ever since. Till today, these modes of transportation have all continued to provide and be a critical aspect of a developing civilization. CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES INTENDED LEARNING OUTCOMES 1. Define transportation and its importance 2. Learn the different modes of transportation, its characteristics. CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES TRANSPORTATION Defined as the movement of people and/or goods from one place to another. CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING Defined by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) as: “the application of technology and scientific principles to the planning, functional design, operation and management of facilities for any mode of transportation. Its main purpose is to provide the safe, rapid, comfortable, convenient, economical, and environmentally compatible movement of people and goods.” CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES General Phases of Transportation Engineering CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES General Phases of Transportation Engineering Planning Maintenance Design Operations Construction CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES General Phases of Transportation Engineering Planning Maintenance Design Operations Construction CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES General Phases of Transportation Engineering Planning Maintenance Design Operations Construction CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES General Phases of Transportation Engineering Planning Maintenance Design Operations Construction CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES General Phases of Transportation Engineering Planning Maintenance Design Operations Construction CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM may be defined as a planned network of elements or physical components that play different roles in the transportation of goods and persons from one place to another. CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES A Transportation System consist of: Flow Entities units that traverse the fixed facilities. Fixed Facilities Control System physical components consists of vehicular of the system that are control and flow fixed in space and control. constitutes the network of links and nodes of the transportation system CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM It is a continuous planning, a part of overall regional and national transportation structure. The prime determinant of trip generation activity is land use. Planning involves short term and long term goals. CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Transportation System Short Term Long Term less complex, comprehensive optimum operation and strategic transportation planning CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES System Approach System Engineering different collaboration from organizing and scheduling the different branches involved and complex strategies to solve the strategies for the achievement of problem and development of an objective. procedures. clear evaluation of the tackling the problem considering combinations of all the elements all the facets of it of problem. working as per predetermined sequence scientific decision CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Elements of Long Term Transportation Planning demand forecast economic, social and environmental changes evaluation of the whole system in terms of the advantages and disadvantages CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Transportation System Diverse Characteristics Multi-modal: Covering all modes of transport; air, land, and sea for both passenger and freight. Multi-sector: Encompassing the problems and viewpoints of government, private industry, and public. Multi-problem: Ranging across a spectrum of issues that includes national and international policy, planning of regional system, the location and design of specific facilities, regulatory, institutional and financial policies. CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Transportation System Multi-objective: Aiming at national and regional economic development, urban development, environment quality, and social quality, as well as service to users and financial and economic feasibility. Multi-disciplinary: Drawing on the theories and methods of engineering, economics, operations research, political science, psychology, other natural, and social sciences, management and law. CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Major Disciplines of Transportation Transportation Geometric Design Pavement Design Traffic Engineering Planning deals with physical deals with the Focus on the safety Development of a proportioning of structural design of of the public, the transport model other transportation roads, both efficient use of which will accurately facilities bituminous and transportation represent both the concrete resources, and the current as well as mobility of people future transportation and goods. system CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Transportation System Other Important Discipline Public transportation - Public transportation or mass transportation deals with study of the transportation system that meets the travel need of several people by sharing a vehicle. Financial and economic analysis - Transportation facilities require large capital investments. Therefore it is imperative that who ever invests money should get the returns. Environmental impact assessment - the depletion of fossil fuels and the degradation of the environment has been a severe concern of the planners in the past few decades. Transportation; in spite of its benefits to the society is a major contributor to the above concern. CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Transportation System Accident analysis and reduction - one of the silent killers of humanity is transportation. Several statistics evaluates that more people are killed due to transportation than great wars and natural disasters. Intelligent transport system - with advent to computers, communication, and vehicle technology, it is possible in these days to operate transportation system much effectively with significant reduction in the adverse impacts of transportation. CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Different Modes of Transportation Roadways - from the name itself, this is a mode of transportation on land. Roadway systems include a large variety of interconnected ways to transport different kind of goods and people. This includes small streets, to feeder roads, small roads, providing ways for all vehicles and pedestrians. Railways - these are steel tracks that are constructed on the ground, used by the trains. Railways have been used for a very long time to transport large amount of goods and people from and to different places in the world. Railways are more advantageous for places that are way too far, an example of this is the PNR, or the Philippine National Railways. PNR provides trips from Northern Manila to Bicol. CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Different Modes of Transportation Waterways - this mode of transportation utilizes canals, rivers, lakes up to oceans for the movement of goods and cargo, and large number of people. Transportation using waterways is possible through ports, terminals along lakes and rivers. Though it is the slowest type of transportation, it is the most efficient since the relative amount of power to the amount of loads, goods and services waterway transportation provide is much lower. Airways - the fastest and safest, provides more comfort, but cost so much more than the other ways of transportation. Pipelines - this mode of transportation is specifically designed for goods such as water, crude, oil and petroleum gas. CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Functional Classification of Highways Highways are classified based upon two primary functions: Mobility - continuous, high speed travel Accessibility - direct access to abutting property CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Current Transportation Challenges Congestion Safety Infrastructure CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Current Transportation Challenges Congestion Safety Infrastructure the worsening traffic 334 reported At the beginning of 2009, the in Metro Manila now accidents per day, country’s road system totaled 205,778 costs P3.5 billion in with one resulting in kilometers (km), national roads lost opportunities per fatality, 56 being comprised 14.4%. About 72% of day, highlighting the non-fatal, and 276 national roads are paved with asphalt need for new and leading to damages and/or concrete; only 22% of local modern infrastructure to property (2019) roads are paved. The coverage and to ease congestion. quality of the Philippine road system may be characterized as poor. CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Total Length of Roads in the Philippines (Paved and Unpaved) CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES CE 310 – Principles of Transportation Engineering TECHNOLOGICAL INSTITUTE OF THE PHILIPPINES Transportation Funding In 2017, the Duterte Administration launched the ambitious $180 billion “Build, Build, Build” (BBB) Program 75 projects valued at $48 billion as flagship projects – rail, airport, road, and bridge projects across the nation. Only two projects had been completed, and that only 21 projects were expected to be completed by 2022. Out of the 73 transport and mobility projects, 32 will be funded by development aid.
