Abstract
Growing urbanization and the increasing size of metropolitan regions is a challenge as well as an opportunity for the economic development and social balance of societies particular in developing countries like Vietnam. The very dynamical evolution of the cities implies special requirements for mobility concepts. These need to be adapted to possible future developments both with respect to their effects and to their implementation. Special challenges of sustainable transport in mega cities today have to address environmental problems and their social implications (e.g. air quality, noise, land use, fragmentation, and security), accessibility and ways to manage existing infrastructure capacities through smart engineering. As an example REMON (Real Time Monitoring of Urban Transport) is one of the research projects on mega cities supported by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research of Germany in cooperation with Vietnamese Partners like “Transport Development and Strategy Institute (TDSI)”, “University of Transport and Communication (UTC)” and “Vietnamese-German Transport Research Centre (VGTRC), Vietnamese-German University, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam”. The main objective of the project is to reduce the energy consumption and thereby the CO2 production of urban traffic in mega cities. A comprehensive traffic monitoring system will be developed, implemented and applied. Based on real data, specific scenarios, measurements and immission models, the team will develop analysis tools to check the efficiency of the system and for calculating and optimizing the emission reduction additionally.
The project follows an interdisciplinary approach integrating land-use planning, transport science, engineering and political science in order to contribute to the mitigation of climate change. An important part of REMON is to assess the environmental impacts of a traffic management system and planned urban traffic developments based on real measured traffic data. Linking technological developments with urban and transport-planning policies is one of the foci of the project: The identification of suitable strategies and policies is a prerequisite to ensure permanent and effective implementation of technological measures. The development of the technical system for traffic management to be installed in Hanoi is reported. All information and results of the traffic management system are open for the public.
The paper will give an overview about the specialties of the project and will point out the findings and goals of the described showcases.
