Creating quiet city zones by noise charges and quiet vehicles. Part one : Traffic flow calculations

, 2007
One important subject in the EU directive 2002/49/EC regarding noise maps and action plans is to establish or preserve quiet areas. In a study within the EU FP6 project "Quiet City Transport" we have analyzed the possibility of creating Quiet City Zones.

Carbon emission assessment of tunnel infrastructures: From construction to operation

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study develops a lifecycle carbon accounting framework for tunnel infrastructures, covering design, construction, operation, maintenance, and dismantling. Applied to a subsea tunnel case, the framework reveals the carbon emission distribution among four typical tunnel types and highlights potential carbon offset methods for low‐carbon tunnel ...

Collective Decision‐Making and Institutional Configurations in Polycentric Environmental Governance

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Why do formally similar multi‐level governance arrangements produce different governance outcomes in urban climate and transport policy? This article examines variation in governance performance across three metropolitan regions in Norway operating under the national Urban Growth Agreement (UGA) framework and pursuing the shared objective of ...
