1. Urban passenger mobility   Jari Kauppila Economiste | Chef de l’unite statistiques Eurostat Workshop on Passenger Mobility Luxembourg, 17 June 2014

2. International Transport Forum at the OECD
An inter-governmental organisation with 54 member countries focussing on transport
A think tank for global transport policy issues
An annual summit of Ministers

3. Annual Summit 2014: Transport in a Changing World
Ageing society
By 2050, the global population 9.1 billion people (6.9 billion today)
22% of the population will be over 60 (11% today)
Urbanisation
Over 70% of the world’s population living in cities (50% today)
Urban mobility presents a growing challenge
Traffic congestion, pollution, safety, inaccessible and unreliable mobility options
Attitudes to mobility
Are consumer attitudes towards transport options changing?
Mobility options continue to change significantly in emerging and developing countries, with shifts from person-powered to motorised vehicles
How can demand in these situations be managed to curb longer-term issues?

5. Transport Outlook: Urban module
Objective: Simulate urban context > how translates to transport and emissions
By type of urban agglomeration, simulate travel/mobility/emissions by mode, at the urban level
Outputs of the model: Urban bus and rail VKMs and urban car and motorcycle fleet
Using MoMo model (IEA) - calculate fuel consumption and Co2 emissions at a global level under different fuel price and technology penetration scenarios
Availability and comparability of data an issue

7. IRTAD cities Creating a road safety expert network at city level
Assess the feasibility for a safety database at city level
Nine cities in the pilot: Barcelona, Bogota, Chicago, Paris, New York, Copenhagen, London, Lyon, Lisbon
Passenger-km is the most relevant exposure data to assess the safety level in a city
The main challenge is to agree on a methodology to collect data on passenger-km for different modes (pedestrians, cyclists, public transport, cars)
Discussing methodological issues regarding the collection and analysis of traffic safety data is already seen as an added value

8. Workshop on Urban Transport Data
In preparation for the 2014 Summit on Transport in a Changing World (to be organised in the fall 2013 or early 2014)
Platform for data providers and users to share experience on methodology, interpretation and limitations of urban transport data
Comparison and discussion of practices - goal of facilitating a better understanding of the urban transport in general
Looking also for innovative solutions
Potential participants: Public transport operators (UITP), city and national representatives, research institutes (eg. TERI, Brookings etc), Transport NGOs (eg. CAI-Asia, ITDP, EMBARQ), “big data” providers (eg. Google, INRIX, Open Street Map)

9. Conclusions Our analysis is only as good as our data
Good quality data and analysis are the key support sound policy and decision making
Need for (better) passenger mobility data – especially at urban level
Harmonization of methods and definitions
Providing more detailed metadata on methods and definition used in existing surveys
Creating a network to discuss related issues already an added value
