The Impact

- The project for the south of the Bergamo motorway ring road is the result of a commitment to problems of mobility which Wwf Italy has intensified in recent years. As a result of an initiative taken by the Bergamo Wwf, a master plan was studied for the area in 2007 to identify possible measures to lessen the impact of the road infrastructure by means of forestation and redevelopment with vegetation. The proposal has involved municipal and provincial administrations so that they can learn the contents and concretely implement this green project. As a result of further study of the project conducted by one of the municipalities concerned, the Region of Lombardy granted funding for a contract tender entitled ‘10,000 hectares of new woodland and multi-functional parkland', to be used to implement an initial lot of the project. The work planned and recently started will be completed by the end of 2010 and will constitute the start of a long process of environmental and landscape redevelopment which should be followed by other intervention in the agricultural area of Plis del rio Morla and Rogge.

AbstractThe paper presents the results of the impact of the Tri-City Ring Road on small endorheic catchment basins. Particular attention was paid to pollution discharged from the road to the surface water, as well as changes in hydrological conditions in the vicinity of the road. In the study, surface water samples were analysed in terms of their electrolytic conductivity, pH and content of major minerals. GIS was also used to study transformation of local catchment areas as a result of the road construction, determining their relevance to local conditions of drainage. Moreover, the main directions of transformation of surface waters of the small endorheic wetlands caused by runoff water from the ring road were discovered. Research results have shown a strong influence of the road functioning on surface water properties and changes in hydrological conditions of the studied catchment basins.

The case examines one of the most significant infrastructure projects in southeastern Europe during a time when the legal and financial environment for project financing was in its infancy (early to mid-1990s). Athens needed a ring road to support its bid to host the 2004 Olympic Games. The road was technically—as well as logistically—complex, involving 33 municipalities and construction that involved a major metropolitan area (Athens) populated by more than 3.5 million inhabitants. The case examines the economics of the project, how private-public partnerships (PPPs) are structured, and the broader field of infrastructure finance.

The procedure for selecting the mechanism of return on investment in infrastructure projects implemented in the road complex with the use of public-private partnership (PPP) mechanisms is proposed. The procedure contains an algorithm for adjusting routes to determine the amount of expected effective demand. The algorithm for adjusting cargo delivery routes eliminates the subjectivity of the estimates obtained and the possibility of manipulating the parameters of PPP projects when determining the expected effective demand for travel. To determine the effectiveness of the proposed procedure in this paper, a comparison is made with the method of calculating the value of the expected effective demand by the method of expert assessments. The problem is solved on the example of the project to improve the technical level and operational condition of the Novokuznetsk Ring Road.

Magetan Regency Government built north-ring-road in order to alleviate traffic congestion in urban center area. However, the ring-road attracted people to utilize the surrounding area. The area utilization was estimated influencing the form and the structure of Magetan Urban Area. In this respect, this research is aimed to explain the relationship between north-ring road development and the change of form and spatial structure of Magetan Urban Area by using a quantitative approach and a descriptive method in its practice. As the result, the form of Magetan Urban area is compact-square with linear form in the several parts of the urban area. The structure of Magetan Urban Area is sectoral which characterized by the main activity in urban center and swept away following the main road. The development in the periphery area was caused by the increase of activities in urban center. However, the development did not change the urban form, but it contributed to the larger size of the urban form. The development of north-ring road only impacted to the development in the several villages surrounded the road, so it did not change the form and the structure of Magetan Urban Area directly.

One of the most important areas of development in Ukraine is the road sector. It belongs to the strategic sectors of the national economy, and the public road network is a significant component of Ukraine's infrastructure potential. The length and condition of road affects not only the safety and quality, mobility and employment, accessibility of educational and other services, but also causes changes in the temp and flow of capital in Ukraine, and is a necessary prerequisite for recovery competitiveness of the country's economy as a whole. Three international transport corridors pass through Ukraine, which are combined with four national transport corridors. They all pass through the Kyiv region. An urgent problem for Kyiv today is the construction of a Large Ring Road (hereinafter referred to as the "LRR") around Kyiv city, which should relieve the flow of transit transport through the capital of Ukraine, reduce harmful emissions from exhaust gases, and preserve the city roads from being destroyed by excessive vehicles, that are now creating a global city problem.

Abstract Thessaloniki is the second largest city in Greece and its transportation system (development and operation) is hampered by the city’s geographical position and surrounding relief. Specifically, the city has been developed and expanded through the years along the coastline, the sea boundary on the southwest, and a second physical boundary, a forest, on the east side. The Thessaloniki Ring Road (divided in western and eastern part) was constructed in the early ‘90s, in order to relief the road network of the city centre from the transit traffic and confront the gradually increasing congestion. The absence of alternatives other than road transport and the increase of car ownership over the years led to an increase of motorized traffic. So even that this Ring Road had been designed to serve 30,000 vehicles daily it became to serve more than triple traffic just before the impacts of the economic crisis on transport and mobility have been made visible. The Western Internal Ring Road of Thessaloniki (WIRRT) has length of 8.4km. It has three lanes per direction separated by a median and no emergency lanes. The traffic increase and moreover the existence of eight at grade intersections along the WIRRT degrade the provided level of service. For the elimination of these intersections an upgrade project is underway for implementation that includes the construction of five grade separated intersections and several interventions on the adjacent road network. This paper presents in brief the methodology and the results of the project’s Cost-Benefit Analysis, which assessed the expected socioeconomic benefits, emerging mainly from minimising the delays for users due to the elimination of the at grade signalised intersections.
