Sustainable Mobility in Catania? Few facts ... so many words



Yesterday, even to make a small guide to our readers (given the lack of information about it), I witnessed, armed with a camera, for an interesting meeting where we talked about sustainable mobility with some experts (unfortunately I could not warn of 'event because I learned only the day before).

had to be the chairman of the region Raffaele Lombardo, the president of the province and the mayor of Catania Castiglione Stancanelli (all center-right) but maybe they thought it was not important enough to matter and the 'last minute (even in conference started) have indicated that would not come, so even the journalists and others are gone. Congratulations! As usual, our politicians prove to be very serious and sensitive to these problems.

In any case, the interventions were very interesting, and were: Prof. Matthew

Ignaccolo, Faculty of Engineering
Plan for sustainable mobility in Europe

Prof. Angelo Messina, Faculty of Mathematics, Physics and Natural
Transport, environment and climate change

Prof. Caterina Cirelli, Faculty of Economics
Sustainable economic development: the relationship between infrastructure and mobility

Prof. Francesco Martino, Faculty of Architecture
transport for sustainable cities

Prof. Giuseppe Inturri, Faculty of Engineering
The unsustainability and the cost of private transport

Prof. Lidia Proietti, Faculty of Medicine
health effects of sustainable mobility

Prof. Gabriella Alfieri, Faculty of Humanities
strategies, channels and modes of communication for sustainable mobility

Prof. Rita Palidda, Faculty of Political Science
Telecommuting and distance learning

Ing. Lorenzo Bertuccio, Euromobility
Inquadramento tecnico-normativo

Coordinamento Regionale FIAB Onlus
Il ruolo della mobilità ciclistica

Dott. Francesco Rapisarda, ing. Salvatore Caprì, MOMACT
Il Mobility Management dell'Università di Catania

Ing. Filippa Adornetto, Comune di Catania
Il Coordinamento d'Area dei Mobility Manager Aziendali

Ing. Vanni Calì, Provincia Regionale di Catania
Le iniziative della Provincia Regionale di Catania

Qui sotto vi riporto alcune slide proiettate che ho trovato interessanti:

In questa trovate un calcolo than it costs monthly to have a 'mid-size car, about 550 € !
The graph also shows that insurance costs have risen over the past 10 years:


Here, however, change is highlighted as the means used to move according to the distance traveled, are also compared the changes since 2000 to 2005:


This graph shows that, unfortunately, in recent years the private motor vehicles are increasing while decreasing sustainable:


here as a truly amazing, with the passage of time the km that every day we walk increased and thus the time it takes to move our which in 2007 reached over 65 minutes a day for those who travel by car then it means being more than an hour to breathe the poisons of the smog that accumulate in the 'cockpit and stressed because of the traffic which inevitably causes serious damage to society and the individual:


Under a chart that shows how Italy is second only to the United States as a means per capita car ownership, this obviously involves the traffic congestion in addition to the problems of pollution


Purtroppo in questi anni il mezzo che più si è sviluppato è stato l'automobile con un trend di crescita veramente mostruoso:


Ecco un tristissimo dato sul trasporto pubblico che funziona bene in città come Londra o Tokyo ma è infinitamente arretrato nelle nostre città:


Qui un sondaggio effettuato dall' università di Catania sui suoi dipendenti che ci illustra come essi si spostano per arrivare nelle varie sedi:
Incredibile vedere come il mezzo più veloce per gli spostamenti urbani e anche il più economico ed ecologico sia addirittura il meno usato! Mentre il più lento, costoso ed inquinante quello più gettonato e con ampissimo margine rispetto agli altri.

Alla conferenza hanno detto che tutte le slide proiettate verranno messe su internet, quando le trovo ovviamente ve lo segnalerò.

In conclusione l' incontro è stato molto stimolante, tutti gli esperti che sono intervenuti sembravano motivati a fare qualcosa per migliorare questa situazione drammatica e da loro la speranza per un cambiamento in positivo era notevole...peccato che poi si pensa subito all' assenza dei "boss" e si ritorna subito con i piedi per terra smettendo si sognare e pensando che anche questa volta queste saranno solo tante belle parole che non troveranno un effettiva messa in pratica . Dal canto nostro we can only inform and continue to use the bike.
