Mobility
News

Mobility and transport are crucial for a city to function properly. Amsterdam is considered the world capital of cycling; 32% of traffic movement in Amsterdam is by bike and 63% of its inhabitants use their bike on daily basis. The number of registered electrical car owners in the Netherlands increased with 53% to 28.889 in 2016. Since 2008 car sharing increased with 376%. However, this is less than 1% of the total car use. Innovative ideas and concepts can help to improve the city’s accessibility, so share your ideas and concepts here.

Start Smart Mobility Amsterdam 2019 - 2025

An accessible, liveable and less polluted city: this is what we’d like to achieve for residents, visitors and businesses in Amsterdam today and for future generations.
Smarter and cleaner mobility can help us realise these aims. As a city, we want to offer Amsterdammers, commuters and visitors alternatives to the present forms of mobility, providing a door-to-door solution and contributing to our aims. This includes shared electric transport, from cars to bikes, in ‘Neighbourhood eHubs’ (eBuurthubs) established in cooperation with local residents. That way, we can use clean modes of transport and create more space in the city by sharing. We can then use this extra space to improve liveability.

Featured image

On 16-17 June we organised, together with the City of Amsterdam, AMS Institute and EIT Climate-KIC, a 24-hour non-stop pressure cooker event. 45 participants worked in 8 multi-disciplinary team to ideate, uncover insights and propose innovative solutions to the city's urban challenges.

The 24-hours Amsterdam City Challenge is one of the events that Amsterdam organises to stimulate their citizens to come up with bright and bold ideas for a sustainable future. The challenges of this event where about Mobility and the Energy Transition:

Mobility

  • How can we organize the supply of fresh food and beverages in the city, in a more efficient manner?
  • How can we improve management of the mobility flows to major tourist attractions more effectively, such as the Zandvoort beach on sunny days?
  • How can we increase the safety of cyclists with respect to congestion on the bike paths and roads (i.e. electric bikes, cargo bikes, and regular bikes)?

Energy Transition

  • Taking the Haparandadam as a point of inspiration, how can we install solar power in unusual places?
  • How can we make data centers greener?

And the winners are...

Amsterdam City Challenge - Innovate the City in 24-hours

Of course every challenge has its winners. But the compliments go to all the participants that where awake for over 24 hours! It is quite a challenge to stay awake... But during this pressure cooker, all kinds of great ideas come alive. That is the great thing about this 24-hours event.

The winner of the Mobility Challenge is team Extra Mile. They came with the idea to use the infrastructure of the trams to deliver food and beverage supplies to the restaurants and bars in Amsterdam. In order to realise this, this team introduced 'De Vreet Tram' ('Vreet' means 'eating a lot' in Dutch).

The winner of the Energy Transition Challenge and the Tada-price is Switchport. This team developed a great idea to combine art with the construction of solar panels. They also wanted to make the use of the solar panel inclusive for the citizens.

Besides winning € 1,000 to work on their ideas furthermore, the teams also got the opportunity to present their ideas during WeMakeThe.City

Sustainable mobility on demand is not only for cities, is it?

My friend Marco Maréchal wrote an interesting article on unlocking municipalities and the countryside towards the cities via sustainable mobility on demand.

Although I agree with most of his views, I think we should take this conversation to a more holistic level: how can we work parallel towards innovations that people do not need to travel to work every day anymore.
Let's also think about moving ‘bits and bytes instead of atoms’ or in other words bring the ‘work to the worker instead the worker to work’ (quotes by Bas Boorsma).
So, we can work on reducing the amount of transportation movements. Compare it with waste management or reducing your electricity bill.

If we are able to convince people to produce less waste, it is the best solution to our waste problem instead of finding innovative and most of the expensive ways to process all the current waste.
And reducing energy consumption by isolating houses is far more effective than generating more energy in sustainable ways.

Therefore, reducing cars and other transportation activities is at least as important as finding sustainable mobility solutions on demand to improve the quality of living of citizens who work-live-play in urban and rural areas.

Amsterdam Smart City Mobility Experience: Delegation Report

Featured image

On May 9, Amsterdam Smart City hosted a municipal delegation from Leverkusen, Germany which was led by Mayor Uwe Richrath. The City of Leverkusen is currently developing its "Mobility Concept 2030+” — a strategic vision for how people and goods will move around their city in the future. To add to the municipal leaders knowledge, the delegation participated in Amsterdam Smart City’s Mobility Experience.

On May 9, Amsterdam Smart City hosted a municipal delegation from Leverkusen, Germany which was led by Mayor Uwe Richrath. The City of Leverkusen is currently developing its "Mobility Concept 2030+” — a strategic vision for how people and goods will move around their city in the future. To add to the municipal leaders knowledge, the delegation participated in Amsterdam Smart City’s Mobility Experience.

“We have taken a lot of interesting facts, especially that change cannot be ordered by the administration and politics. It has to come from the people, which only works with very intensive public participation. The visit reassured us that we are on the right path to developing a vision for the future of mobility in Leverkusen in close consultation with citizens and stakeholders.”
— Uwe Richrath, Mayor Leverkusen Germany

The delegates were particularly interested in the process by which Amsterdam Smart City brings together various public and private stakeholders, and how it engages with citizens.

Throughout the day, the group met with various experts, including Dirk de Jager, district alderman for Amsterdam South-east who explained how Amsterdam transitioned from being car-oriented to a more sustainable mobility system by reallocating space from cars to bicycles. Dirk also introduced Amsterdam’s planned mobility policies through 2025, for instance the elimination of 10,000 parking places within the ring road of Amsterdam.

Sjors van Duren, from Royal Haskoning, was particularly inspiring, sharing examples and best practices from smaller municipalities in the Netherlands and Germany which the delegates could relate to.

Joris Hupperets of EV-Box explained the role EV-Box is playing in transitioning Amsterdam to a zero-emission future, as the City of Amsterdam will ban diesel and gasoline vehicles by 2030. Joris explained some of the key mechanisms and policies the City is using to implement this vision and how this will be done in an incremental way and in consultation with various stakeholders.
Joris Hupperets shares insights into Amsterdam's successful approach to electrification of transport
The delegation also met with Maarten Woolthuis, co-founder of BYCS who explained the role of the Bicycle Mayor program in shifting public perspectives and giving cyclists a voice in Amsterdam as well as internationally.

At the end of the day the delegates reflected on the most important lessons they would be taking back to Leverkusen:

  • A transition to a sustainable mobility system takes decades and the work is never finished.
  • It’s important to show people the positive benefits of change. For instance by explaining to car drivers that more cycling benefits all road users, including drivers themselves as there is less congestion and pollution as more people shift from driving to cycling.
  • Ambitious visions should be matched by clear strategies for how to achieve goals.
  • The Amsterdam Smart City program provided many helpful ideas for how to engage and communicate with stakeholders, especially citizens, about the future of mobility in Leverkusen.

When asked about the highlight of the day, most delegates agreed the bicycle tour led by Marjolein de Lange, cycling planning consultant, was an eye-opening and inspiring way to experience best practices and innovations first hand.

Meer ruimte in de stad begint bij slimmer omgaan met bestaande parkeerplekken

Steden worden steeds drukker. Het verkeer neemt toe en straten staan vol met geparkeerde auto’s. Dit terwijl ruimte in de stad schaars is. Gemeenten en projectontwikkelaars staan daarom voor een forse uitdaging. Hoe kunnen ze met beperkte middelen toch meer leefruimte creëren? Ons advies: benut bestaande parkeerlocaties optimaal. Zo kun je op termijn straatparkeerplekken schrappen.

Om uit te leggen hoe dit werkt en waarom dit belangrijk is, hebben we een artikel geschreven. Dit breng ik graag hier onder de aandacht!

Laatste kavel Schiphol Logistics Park geleverd aan Durfort Vastgoed

Featured image

7 mei jl. is de laatste gereserveerde kavel op Schiphol Logistics Park aan Durfort Vastgoed B.V. geleverd. Op de kavel van 24.691 m2 uitgeefbaar zal eind deze maand gestart worden met de bouw van een logistiek warehouse. De ontwerp is van de hand van Architecten-Lab. Aannemer Aan de Stegge zal het nieuwe pand naar verwachting in december 2019 opleveren.

Deze ontwikkeling van kleinschalige logistieke units omvat in totaal 13.289 m² v.v.o. warehouse, 1.821 m² v.v.o. mezzanine, 2.346 m² v.v.o. kantoorruimte en 105 parkeerplaatsen op eigen terrein. Het warehouse kan worden verdeeld in maximaal negen zelfstandige units, waarvan sommige met elkaar verbonden kunnen worden zodat grotere gecombineerde units ontstaan. Elke unit heeft minstens twee loading docks en een overheaddeur. Door de ligging en de unitomvang is dit object uniek in zijn soort.

Cees Smit, directeur Durfort Vastgoed: "Met de units die variëren van ca. 1.250 tot 2.500 m2, wordt dit project vooral ontwikkeld voor partijen in de logistieke keten zoals transporteurs, expediteurs en kleinere Schiphol-georiënteerde bedrijven die behoefte hebben aan een beperkte opslagcapaciteit."

Arnoud van der Wijk, projectmanager bij SADC: “Deze kleinere units zijn een nieuw product dat wordt aangeboden op Schiphol Logistics Park en zorgen voor een gevarieerd aanbod van logistieke ruimte dicht bij Schiphol.”

Duurzaamheid
Bovenop het energielabel A++ is het gebouw zo ontworpen dat het gehele dak voorzien kan worden van zonnepanelen. Daarmee kan het project op termijn eenvoudig omgezet worden naar ‘all electric’ waarbij, mede gezien het gebruik van ledverlichting in zowel de kantoren, in de bedrijfsruimte als op het buitenterrein, in belangrijke mate in de eigen elektriciteitsbehoefte kan worden voorzien. Verder worden materialen met een hoge isolatiewaarde gebruikt en wordt er luchtdicht gebouwd rond gevelopeningen en dak- en aansluitingen. Daarnaast is gestreefd naar een zo efficiënt mogelijk grondgebruik door de realisatie van een gebouwde parkeervoorziening.

Laatste kavel
Met de levering aan Durfort Vastgoed is de laatste kavel op Schiphol Logistics Park uitgegeven. Logistieke partijen kunnen nog grond voor nieuwbouw verwerven op het naastgelegen Schiphol Trade Park.

Schiphol Logistics Park
Schiphol Logistics Park is een hoogwaardig logistiek bedrijventerrein, gelegen op een van de meest strategische logistieke locaties van Europa ten zuiden van Schiphol. Gevestigd zijn daar onder andere Kuehne+Nagel (WDP), Expeditors, Rapid Logistics (WDP), datacenter interxion (Somerset), SEKO Benelux (Somerset) en CTS GROUP (Somerset). Op deelgebied West hebben Montea en Durfort Vastgoed een logistiek centrum ontwikkeld met Thomsen Select en Milestone Logistics als eerste huurders. Het naastgelegen AMS Cargo Center van Built to Build en Proptimize (multi-tentant warehouse) is inmiddels voor 80% verhuurd (IWS, ViaEurope en Bonded Services). Onlangs tekenden Montea en SADC de koopovereenkomst voor een kavel van 21.521 m2.
Schiphol Logistics Park is een ontwikkeling van regionale gebiedsontwikkelaar SADC, Schiphol Real Estate en KLM.

Knowledge sharing leads to concrete ideas, projects or initiatives. The winning proposal will need to detail plans for a digital platform which will be in both Dutch and English, through which knowledge and innovations concerning cycling in the Amsterdam region will be bundled and made accessible. It will provide a shared bicycle platform for companies, citizens, academic, municipality, and transport region and social organizations in the field of cycling for the Amsterdam region. The platform will also offer the opportunity to showcase Amsterdam as a cycling city internationally. The platform must be fully transferable, so that it can be managed and further developed by the municipality or third parties at the end of the term of the agreement.

2. Expanded Network in the Field of Cycling
The winning proposal will be charged with setting up, mobilizing, and stimulating a powerful network organization. Through this network, the makers, inventors, implementers and policymakers will share bicycle knowledge and will be empowered and supported to develop innovative ideas in close collaboration with the commissioning parties.

3. Receive Delegations
The Bicycle platform for knowledge sharing, innovation and experiment has a leading role in receiving international delegations, giving and organizing presentations, and arranging excursions for the many delegations that are expected in Amsterdam and throughout the region.

New geo-design tool can help Amsterdam turn waste into value

TU Delft, AMS Institute, and Metabolic are working with an international consortium of parties to develop an interactive online application that maps resource flows in peri-urban Amsterdam – one of six living laboratories for the REPAiR project, funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program.

The tool equips city planners and urban designers with an interactive map of waste streams and shows how they could be usefully redirected, identifying the significant opportunities in peri-urban areas where the city and the countryside meet.
