Selecting Rapid Transit Modes January 22 & 23, 2008, Skhirat, Morocco Sam Zimmerman, Senior Urban Transport Specialist World Bank

Selecting a Rapid Transit Mode Process Considerations Options

Buying a new auto. 1.Do I need a car 2.How will the family use it? 3.How much money do I have to spend? 4.What are my options? 5.What are they like? Cost? Size? Features Comfort? Repair record? 6.Opinion of wife, wife’s brother? 7.Decision ???

Why should buying a $500M++ public transport line or highway be different?

Identify Viable Alternatives Alternatives Analysis Establish Goals and Objectives; Establish Goals and Objectives; Transportation, Quality of Life Evaluate Current Problems, Future Challenges Future Challenges Evaluate Alternatives Decision on Mode and General Alignment Go!

Basic Principals Alternatives Analyses follow metropolitan strategic planning; a corridor has been identified as a top priority for: a new high performance & capacity public transport (rapid transit) link, a high performance & capacity general traffic highway link (e.g., a new expressway) possibly both

Basic Principals The inputs to AA are the short list of alternatives passed from earlier metropolitan strategic planning or strategic “thinking” Consider them in the greater detail of AA

Basic Principals AA’s are about finding the best alternative to solve transport and related problems in a particular metropolitan corridor or sub-area.AA’s are about finding the best alternative to solve transport and related problems in a particular metropolitan corridor or sub-area. AA’s are not “feasibility studies,” where the “feasibility” of a single solution is evaluated without looking at other, potentially more cost-effective and desirable options.

1.Make sure that everyone understands the process from start. Alternatives Analysis, not “Feasibility Study” 2. Identify the information needed for proper analysis; Collect it early 3.Understand the problems first Alternatives Analysis Guidelines

Symptom: Traffic Congestion

Beijing Is More Highway Capacity Needed?

Is Metro Enough? Bangkok Manila

Not just huge single-mode investments - Significant new highway capacity - Metros, LRT and suburban rail Include: better management and operations lower cost investments Multimodal packages 4.Consider the right alternatives

Rapid Transit

Roads, NMT Streets

Better Management

5.Develop complete, objective and reliable decision information Transport system performance and benefits Quality of life criteria –Air quality –Noise –Social equity Economic and financial

6.Make the case: Support the decision Develop champions –Decision makers –Civil society –Citizens

Summary 1. Make sure that everyone understands AA 2.Understand the problems needing solution 3.Consider the right alternatives 4.Develop complete, objective and reliable information to support decision making 5.Be prepared to make the case
