Cities are the growth engines for their national economies, but are also facing major challenges
Siemens Megatrend-Study

Megatrends Globalization & Urbanization

Global players / trade volume increase 2030: 60% of population in cities Urban infrastructure as key success factors for cities

Sustainable Urban Development

Cities are competing globally to make their urban areas attractive to live and to invest in

Demographic Change
65+ generation will nearly double by 2030 (from 7% to 12%) Need for adequate infrastructures as well as health- and elder care

Competitiveness

Sustainability
Environment Quality of Life

Climate Change
Cities responsible for ~80% GHG and ~70% of world energy consumption Need for resource efficiency and environmental care Challenge to balance between competitiveness, environment and quality of life

% of respondents mentioning as top priority

Overall high investments in all urban infrastructure areas expected, Transportation (and logistics) perceived to be biggest challenge and top priority to attract investors Impact of urban mobility: on city competitiveness - Nr. 1; on quality of life - Nr. 1; on environmental protection - Nr. 2 with regard to CO2 (Nr. 1: Building )

The hotspots for sustainable urban mobility need for an intelligent integration of measures

Airport & Airport link

Park & Ride hubs & interurban traffic

3 major levers for sustainable mobility

1. Modal shift - road to rail - Efficient transition points - Intermodal information - Public transport - 2. Intelligent mobility management - Intelligent traffic mgmt. - Tolling systems - Smart card solutions - 3. Technological innovation - Road: e.g. E-Mobility, Hybrid buses - Rail: e.g. Lightweight construction and regenerative breaking energy, electronic train control systems -

Leading positions based on availability of alternatives, good governance and application of green tech

Stockholm Index leader in transport High density of city combined with excellent walking and cycling lanes: 68% of people cycle or walk to work (despite low average temperature) Small, but very well integrated public transport network: Only 7% of commuters using private vehicles Very effective connection of suburbs and peripheral areas: 75% of rush-our travels into city center by public transport Real-time Information for travelers with regard to arrival times for buses and trains Income from city tolling/tax re-invested into new mobility technologies: Use of cars reduced by 20% Continuous green innovations: e.g. adaptive traffic management (traffic lights / road signs), buses with alternative fuels (50% by 2011, 100% by 2015)
