Jak fungují kontejnerové terminály v Česku a jak jezdí kontejnerové vlaky v Evropě, o tom je nejnovější díl podcastu Cesty Zdopravy.cz. Pozvání do našeho studia přijal Martin Hořínek, jednatel dopravce Metrans Rail a provozní ředitel a člen představenstva společnosti Metrans. Zároveň je de facto prezidentem sdružení nákladních dopravců na železnici ŽESNAD.CZ. V Česku provozuje Metrans dva velké hub terminály – jeden v Praze-Uhříněvsi a druhý v České Třebové, kde se kontejnery nejen vykládají, ale i překládají na vlakové linky do dalších destinací. Menší terminály Mentransu v Nýřanech, Ústí nad Labem, v Lípě nad Dřevnicí a v Havířově jsou pak cílové, kde si kontejnery vyzvedávají zákazníci. „Terminálů máme v Evropě 21 a máme železniční dopravce, kteří jsou ve všech zemích, kde máme terminály. Pravidelné linky pak spojují naše terminály a jezdí do všech velkých přístavů nebo do velkých průmyslových center, jako je německé Porůří,“ říká v podcastu Martin Hořínek s tím, že týdně má celá skupina Metrans na evropské síti 670 vlaků s kontejnery. Páteřní linkou z Česka je pro Metrans relace Praha-Hamburk, která vyjela poprvé v roce 1992. Dnes jede mezi Českem a Hamburkem v průměru osm párů kontejnerových vlaků každý den.

Ředitel českého a slovenského Alstomu, někdejší šéf Českých drah a také profesionální basketbalový trenér Daniel Kurucz je hostem nového dílu podcastu Cesty Zdopravy. Alstom má v Česku českolipskou továrnu, kde pro zahraniční závody zajišťuje především svařování ocelových a nerezových konstrukcí kolejových vozidel a také jejich lakování. „Máme teď v České Lípě pět velkých projektů. Třeba RER, který vozí lidi z Letiště Charlese de Gaulla do centra Paříže, vyrábíme také tramvaje pro Vídeň, regionální vlaky pro Francii a Německo a nově máme i tramvaje pro Austrálii,“ vypočítává Daniel Kurucz projekty, na kterých 1300 zdejších zaměstnanců aktuálně pracuje.  Česká republika rozhodně nepatří mezi země, kde by bylo možné vlaky Alstomu vídat zatím ve velkém. Poslední dobou se to však začíná měnit s dodávkami lokomotiv Traxx. Aktuálně jich v Česku jezdí více než 90, velkými zákazníky Alstomu jsou ČD Cargo, Metrans a Regiojet.  Alstom patří ale také mezi největší výrobce automatizovaného metra na světě a Daniel Kurucz v podcastu potvrdil, že zakázka na automatické metro D v Praze, a s tím související projekt automatizace linky C, ho velmi zajímají. „Podle našeho názoru to budou desítky miliard korun,“ odhaduje ředitel velikost zakázky na automatizaci pražského metra a očekává, že se o ni bude chtít poprat 5 až 6 velkých firem.  „Alstom je pionýrem v alternativních pohonech,“ tvrdí v podcastu ředitel Kurucz, a v případě vývoje vodíkových vlaků je to bezpochyby pravda. Alstom vsadil s vodíkem na zelenou Evropu a první vodíkové vlaky vozí v Německu cestující v pravidelném provozu úspěšně. Otázkou však je, zda nastupující energetická krize nezamíchá kartami úplně jinak. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Over the past 20 years, local and regional governments in the Los Angeles metropolitan area have invested significant resources in building rail transit infrastructure that connects major employment centers. One goal of transit infrastructure is to catalyze the development of high density, mixed-use housing and commercial activity within walking distance of rail stations, referred to as Transit Oriented Development (TOD). This project examines the quantity, type, and mix of economic activity that has occurred around newly built rail stations in Los Angeles over the past 20 years. Specifically, have the number of jobs or housing market characteristics changed near stations? We use establishment-level data on employment and property-level data on housing transactions to analyze changes in several employment and housing outcomes. Results suggest that new rail stations were located in areas that, prior to station opening, had unusually high employment density and mostly multifamily rental housing. There is no evidence of changes in employment density, housing sales volume, or new housing development within five years after station opening. Regressions suggest that a subset of stations saw increased employment density within five to ten years after opening.

Traffic congestion impedes our mobility, pollutes the air, wastes fuel, and hampers economic growth. While physical bottlenecks, overpopulation, weather, and construction can all lead to congestion, a key contributor to traffic congestion is road accidents - events that disrupt the normal flow of traffic. Reducing the impact of traffic accidents has been one of the primary objectives for transportation policy makers. In this talk, we present a novel machine learning framework to forecast how travel-time delays - caused by accidents - occur and progress in the transportation network. This research is conducted by correlating 4 years of historical traffic sensor and accident data archived under ADMS project developed - by METRANS and IMSC centers of USC - for Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro). Speakers: Ugur Demiyurek Associate Director, Integrated Media Systems Center USC Viterbi Dingxiong Deng Ph.

Presented by the METRANS transportation center based at USC and CSULB featuring Cen Feng Ng, assistant professor of economics at California State University Long Beach. Gasoline prices vary wildly throughout the world, with some countries imposing high taxes while others provide subsidies. After examining worldwide price differences in detail, this paper focuses on whether the differences in gasoline price affects border crossings between the U.S. and Mexico, which currently subsidizes gasoline. This paper finds that even though there is evidence that some U.S. residents may be incentivized to visit Mexico when the price difference is large, this is offset by the decrease in travel due to higher U.S. gasoline prices. Control variables include State Department travel warnings, the unemployment rate and other factors. The results also suggest that there is some substitution between modes, as an increase in gasoline prices is associated with an increase in pedestrian border crossings. Chen Feng Ng received her Ph.D. from UC Irvine in 2008, and her main fields of interest are urban and transportation economics. Her papers have been published in the Journal of Urban Economics and Transportation - as well as other journals. She is currently working on research related to highway design, gasoline subsidies, and the link between housing prices and consumption amenities.

Freight transportation has been immensely successful in meeting the needs of today’s urban economies, delivering an increasing number of goods to businesses and households while operating in congested, complex urban environments. More than one million deliveries are made every day in the Paris region. But this has come at a cost, as the environmental impact of urban freight is high. Truck and van trips make up 15% of urban traffic, but generate between a quarter and half of motor traffic pollution in cities. This is due to the old age of urban commercial vehicles and the predominance of diesel vehicles, the stops and goes that goods’ deliveries and pickups generate, the increased distances from distribution terminals to final destinations. In this presentation, three recent CO2 emission assessments for freight transportation at different scales will be compared, leading to a discussion on urban freight environmental challenges and the often unsuccessful efforts by local decision-makers to deal with them. SPEAKER BIO: Dr. Laetitia Dablanc, is a visiting scholar at the Sol Price School of Public Policy. She is a senior scientist from the French Institute of Science and Technology for Transport, Development and Networks (IFSTTAR). Her areas of research are freight transportation, freight and the environment, freight policies. She has authored many books and articles on urban freight issues. She received a PhD in transportation planning from Ecole des Ponts-Paris Tech, and a Master’s degree in city and regional planning from Cornell University. Professor Dablanc was initially trained in policy analysis and economics at Science Po Paris. With the financial support of IFSTTAR and ADEME, she is currently working on logistics sprawl issues and freight transport planning in U.S. and European mega-regions. She researched at the Georgia Institute of Technology before joining METRANS.
