Topic 19. Road solutions for the decarbonisation in Urban and Periurban areas

  • IP0288 - A new carpool lane on the A7 motorway
    Jérome SAURAT , Gilbert NICOLLE

    The A7 motorway to the south of Lyon is a major traffic artery, carrying more than 100,000 vehicles a day. This motorway regularly experiences congestion problems, particularly during the morning rush hour in the south/north direction. With this in mind, a lane on the left-hand side of the motorway has been reserved for vehicles with at least two occupants, public transport vehicles, taxis and very [...]

  • IP0295 - Approach to the mobility of the territory’s workers
    Alexandre STRAUSS , Elise SOUFFLET-LECLERC

    Following on from both the CRTE (contracts for success and energy transition) and the national policy aimed at decarbonized mobility and the energy transition, it was agreed that the State should support territorial dynamics by taking charge of an approach on the theme of workforce mobility in Cornwall, on the scale of the 7 EPCIs. The State services asked Cerema to carry out an approach to the mobility [...]

  • IP0456 - Climate Change Adaptation: The French Road Policy Doctrine
    Wilfried PILLARD , Xavier GUYOT

    In response to climate change, the French authorities have adopted a third National Climate Change Adaptation Plan (PNACC v3) [1], based on the most adverse scenario, namely a +4 °C increase by 2100. This plan is structured around a series of actions to be implemented. While some of these measures specifically address the implications of rising global temperatures—particularly in urban environments [...]

  • IP0275 - Preliminary Outline Business Case for Decarbonizing Transport along Lang’ata Road in Nairobi, Kenya
    Elisha Akech OCHUNGO

    This preliminary outline business case presents a decarbonization scheme to decongest Lang’ata Road in Nairobi, Kenya’s capital city. Lang’ata Road has had a prolonged congestion problem and this leads to long travel times. The externalities like carbon emissions are a major issue when it comes to global warming and climate change. To address this and to improve the well-being of the area residents, [...]

  • IP0438 - Road Traffic Management for the Southern Coastline of Marseille
    Sandrine ROUSIC , Yannis LAGARDE

    In 2020, the Calanques of Marseille attracted several million visitors, representing a 40 to 50% increase compared to 2019. The exponential appeal of the Calanques National Park over the years has led to significant inconveniences every weekend and throughout the summer season: traffic congestion, illegal parking, trampling of fragile natural areas, overcrowded beaches, and a lack of civic-mindedness [...]

  • IP0393 - The French carpooling development strategy
    Mathieu LUZERNE , Sandrine ROUSIC

    Over the past decade, car-sharing has undergone a significant evolution in France, marked by growing adoption driven by public and private initiatives to encourage the practice. While private operator platforms have played a crucial role in this expansion, facilitating connections between drivers and passengers, their relevance was initially limited to occasional long-distance journeys. As a complement [...]

  • IP0301 - Wireless Opportunity Charging: A Scalable and Sustainable Solution for Electrifying Public Transport
    Bauke DEKKER , Richard VAN DEN DOOL

    Cities worldwide increasingly turn to electric public transport to promote sustainability and reduce harmful emissions. However, this transition faces several significant challenges, including constraints related to battery size, high infrastructure costs, limitations of the electrical grid, and concerns about operational efficiency. To address these challenges, a reliable and scalable charging solution [...]
