Parking lots, underground garages, overhead, and tunnels. , Involve high costs and difficult to solve the problems by increasing the volume of traffic, leading to a greater deterioration in the quality of life in the city.
There are alternatives to reduce the number of cars on the road, commuter traffic, the need for car parking in town for long periods and, consequently, the need for areas for parking.
solutions adopted so far (parking time, with rising costs for the user; proposals for strengthening public transport; increase in parking areas, construction of roads, bridges and tunnels to increase the flow of traffic) have worsened the situation: it is increased traffic pressure on urban areas, the areas of trade has never worked, the supply of land parking in specific areas (parking destination, as Poetto) contributed to further deterioration of neighborhoods without satisfactorily solve the problem.
E 'should therefore explore new avenues. In particular, three proposals have already been tried in the countries of northern Europe, aimed at rationalizing the use of private cars:
-
car-sharing;
-
car-pooling
-
platforms for the distribution of goods (+ collection points using environmentally friendly vehicles)
Each of these tools addresses a specific aspect of city traffic, in particular the car-sharing (use of a car service on request) meets typical needs of the inhabitants of city centers and limited traffic areas because it reduces the need
-
parking
-
the number of cars circulating
-
the need for remittances Car private garages
creates In addition, job opportunities, for example is through the computer management of the fleet;
allows cost savings to users who usually travel less than 10000/15000 km / year;
helps to reduce pollution from exhaust gases (CO2, particulate matter);
car pooling is aimed, instead, to commuters travel paths coincide in the same hours, through the sharing of expenses and tax and regulatory incentives (parking areas, and preferential use of courses, etc..) encourages the public use of private cars in order to decrease the pressure of incoming traffic and exit to the city;
distribution platforms want to streamline and regulate the distribution of goods to retailers in town centers and LTZ, including through the use of vehicles adapted to the width of roads, electric-powered or with reduced exhaust emissions.
