SD Course in Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, 12-23 Febraury 2006

1. Sustainable development
of…
Transport System of Ukraine
Vision of future
and present
Proposed by Group 3

2. Introduction
For modern people in Ukraine as in the whole
world it’s impossible to refuse private cars or the
automobile for transporting, that carry loads to
any place you want.
How to combine the needs of society
and defense of environment?

3. Main stakeholders
Citizens for
Industry
everyday
needs Government
Emergency
and other
services Delivery
companies
Ministry of
Taxi companies transport

4. What do we want?
Mobility Transportation
Safe Fast
Efficient Reliable
Accessible Equitable
Convenient Cost effective
Environmentally Stimulate
sensitive economic growth
BUT

5. What will happen if we just satisfy our wants ?

6. What will happen if we just satisfy our wants ?
!!!Real need!!!
CONNECTIVITY
Planning of
ACCESSIBILITY
rather than auto mobility

7. Pollution by CO2 in Ukraine
35%
49%
4%
8% 4%
Auto transport Civil aviation Railway
Navigation Other

8. Why system is unsustainable?
The transport sector is a major growing
1 source of greenhouse gas emissions.
Constant growth of fuel consumption
2 demand
Complete dependence on non-renewable
3 resources
Lack of individual responsible behavior in
4 personal movement and consumption.
Lack of legislation and long-term
5 planning.

9. How is it polluted?
Nitrogen Carbon
Oxide Hydrates
NO2 CH4

14. 1 Mechanisms
Traffic green time

15. 1 Mechanisms
Smart traffic regulation

16. 1 Mechanisms
Regulation of public transport
Extra lanes for public transport movement, time intervals will be
strictly defined
•It will help to reduce quantity
Public transport will have bigger
and prevent jams
capacity (like two-stored buses)
Special circular roads
for big transit vehicles

17. 1 Mechanisms
Solving of parking problem
BIG PROBLEM!
Unauthorized parking lead to
“In the Bible there are a lot of stories from
traffic jams.
present times: even Noah was looking for
Transport damages environmental
place to park during 40 days”
greatly while standing
Robert Orben

18. 2 Minimized dependence on non-renewable resources
Petrol and diesel fuels are used
in great amounts.
The oil use in Ukraine increases
2% a year
High dependence of Ukraine oil market on
foreign fuel supplies

19. 2 Mechanisms
Implementation of underground, overland and overhead
rail transport which use electricity
Electricity can be obtained from
renewable energy sources
Rail transport is separated of automobile
roads and it helps to discharge them
Using accumulation of solar energy
Hatch of car roof is
solar battery
for air condition

20. 2 Mechanisms
Regeneration of energy
Regeneration of energy
Waste of energy
Braking
Movement

21. 2 Mechanisms
Public transport will use renewable resources like hydrogen
fuel, ethyl alcohol, biofuel
•In the world there extends the use of biomass fuel –
biodiesel and ethyl alcohol which have lower emission
per energy unit
•Biodiesel can be produced from vegetable product
(soy, sunflower) and also waste materials of animal fat.
Now in many countries for practical use it is mixed
with diesel fuel
•In Brazil ethyl alcohol made of sugar-cane forms
about 40% of total fuel used by automobiles
Improving technologies of car constructing
For last 25 years we preferred large, heavy and fast automobiles, that
damaged the environment
To limit emissions we must persuade customers to buy cars with law fuel
use
If transport means become lighter and smaller then in the nearest 10-15
years amounts of fuel use may reduce on 20%.

22. Good quality of roads
3 and development another traffic communications
“Accidents happened because of using
TOMORROW cars by
PRESENT drivers on
YESTERDAY roads with
THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW speed”
Vittorio De Sika
Mechanisms
• Use of flexible and fair tax system: cheap vehicles – low tax, expensive cars
–high tax. That money could be spent to renew our roads.
• Reduce quantity of trucks in city centers
• Encourage people to walk by foot and use a bicycle + building special roads
for bicycle
• Legislative mechanisms like increasing of road taxes (for roads repairing)
for non-economical vehicles which pollute atmosphere.

23. Governmental measures
Effective tax policies and discount
system.
§ For example when buying heavy and non-
economic car the consumer pays much
more than buying small economic car.
§ Implementation of new technologies of car
building must be stimulated by
government.

24. Indicators
How can we measure progress
towards sustainability?
-emissionsof transport
-percentage of people using public transport, which is
easier to make ecologically clean (the more people really
use it the better is transport system)
-average fuel use for one car a year
-percentage of renewable energy use
-the quantity of cars per area unit
-percentage of area under asphalt coat (these lands
do not breathe, do not product oxygen)

25. Indicators
- total passenger and cargo turnover by air, ship,
road, rail transport
- average distance for people to get to their jobs.
- quantity of accidents per year
- number of basic services (schools, shops…)
within walking distance
- portion of population with access to Internet
connection

26. Conclusion
If we don’t change present situation it’s going to
be… very bad.
So, think about sustainable development of
transport in Ukraine
