Strategic Urban Accessibility Plans (SUAP)

Creating a Strategic Urban Accessibility Plan (SUAP) is a crucial undertaking for urban planning and mobility. This plan aims to ensure that a city's residents can access essential services and facilities conveniently, regardless of their age, gender, or mobility preferences. A well-structured SUAP can enhance the overall quality of life for the city's inhabitants.

It's is a tool that allows to assess the public transportations, walking and biking networks as well as land use.

Software Development

Software Development which measures and informs about Acces in Urban environments.

The project is based in the cumulative opportunity measures studyed by the isochrone method.

Urban Data Platform

Urban Data Platform is an initiative designed to leverage the power of data to transform cities into leading tourist destinations and to improve the lives of their inhabitants. This development is based on a web platform, created to collect, analyze, and disseminate urban and tourist data.

Railway Feasibility studies

Conduct of the study called “Introducing the Costa del Sol Metro Project: structuring the territory” which analyses the improvement of the railway operation of the Málaga-Fuengirola line and its extension to Marbella (Spain).

Technical Assistance

Hydrogen on Mobility

An European organism organized a tender about Hydrogen on Mobility, we studied and prepared all the documentation about this tendering.

Mobility Data Spaces

An European organism organized a tender about Hydrogen on Mobility, we studied and prepared all the documentation about this tendering.

Design

Functional analysis of station architecture

These studies addressed 15 underground Light Rail stations in Andalusia (Spain). They were carried out continuously in 3 different stages: design, construction and operation. The demand and movement of people were analyzed to study accesses, placement of ticketing validation systems, stairs and elevators, information signage needs, among others. Work was also done to define the functional needs of the technical areas. 

Functional analysis of needs in equipment and facilities in a light rail system

These studies consisted of defining the equipment and installation needs of a Light Rail system in Andalusia (Spain). They were carried out continuously in 3 different stages: design, construction and operation. This work supervised the installations of railway signalling, energy, electromechanical, communications, track and equipment of line, depots and stations.

Functional analysis of the extension of a metro line

This study was carried out to define the needs in facilities and equipment for the extension of a metro line in Barcelona (Spain).

Functional study of the facilities and equipment of the depots of a tramway

This study was carried out to define the needs in facilities and equipment of the depots of two tram lines in Barcelona (Spain).

Energy mangement

Design of the HV power distribution

This was a study of alternatives and functional design of the HV power distribution network of a Light Railway system operator in Andalusia.

Energy efficiency plan

This involved the development of an energy efficiency plan for an operator of a Light Rail system in Andalusia in which more than 50 actions were studied to help analyse and reduce energy consumption.

Development of operating and maintenance procedures

This involved the development of operational and maintenance procedures for an operator of a Light Rail system in Andalusia.

Operation and maintenance

Operational analysis of a Light Rail system

It involved several studies to define the operation of a Light Rail system in Andalusia (Spain). The studies analysed both the start and the end of the service, the incorporation/exit of trains, the use of single tracks, headways at peak and off-peak hours, crew needs and schedules.

State of the art of public transport operation

The objective of this work was to know the state of the art in the operation of public transport and the management of delays and disruptions. The study was based on a complete analysis of the literature on the subject and the preparation of a report.

Operating Procedures and Maintenance Plans

Continuous intervention was carried out in the development of operating procedures and maintenance plans that define routine and emergency operations for a Light Rail system in Andalusia (Spain).

Traffic demand studies

Macro modelling of private traffic

It was a series of works that modelled at a macro level the cuts and traffic diversions necessary to build a large linear infrastructure in a city in Andalusia (Spain). The aim of these works was to determine how the traffic was distributed, to know the level of service of the different axes and to define measures to improve their capacity.

Micro modelling at intersections

This work consisted of simulations of intersections affected by the works of a large linear infrastructure in a city in Andalusia (Spain). The aim of these studies was to determine the level of service of the intersections and define measures to improve their capacity.

Macro modelling of public transport

They were a set of studies to model the demand for public transport in a city in Andalusia (Spain). The aim of these studies was to determine the modal split and the uptake of private transport and induction after the implementation of a Light Rail Metro. Several scenarios with prognosis of variables over time were performed.

Sensitivity analysis of an Activity-based model

This work analysed the sensitivity to different policies in an activity-based model in Flanders (Belgium). It was a study in which the impact of different policies was measured and compared with the expected results according to the literature.

Data analysis and modelling

Analysis and modeling of traffic data from a railway operator

The project dealt with the analysis of entry and exit data through the ticketing system of a railway operator in a city in Andalusia (Spain). A data model was created where each trip was treated anonymously, creating graphs of inputs and outputs, aggregating data for 15 minutes. A dashboard was designed that represented the load of travellers by line and direction, revealing mobility patterns by time of day, day of the week, type of day or season. The use of different types of pre-sale cards was also analysed.

Quality of service

Quality of service of a Railway Operator

The project dealt with the monthly analysis of the rates of regularity and availability of the service of an urban public transport concessionaire in Andalusia (Spain). The reliability and availability of rolling stock and equipment and facilities were also analysed.

State of the art in Service Quality

It was a study to know the state of the art regarding the quality of service in public transport. The study was based on a complete analysis of the literature on the subject and the preparation of a complete report.

Feasibility studies

Study on free public transport

The possibility of implementing a free public transport policy in a Belgian city was analyzed. The study contemplated all the necessary actions for the implementation of free public transport without increasing the municipal budget.

Study on the implementation of a BRT (Bus Rapid Transport) system

The implementation of a BRT network in a city in Vietnam was analyzed. This study analyzed various alternatives for improving mobility, developing a BRT system at a preliminary level.

Road safety

Study on Road Safety in Spain

This study analyzed the different road safety plans since 2000 in Spain, both at the national, regional and local levels. The degree of implementation of "Safe Systems" and "Vision Zero" in Spain was also studied.

Studies on improving safety at tram-road traffic intersections

These studies had the aim of reducing the probability and severity of incidents and accidents between cars and trams at various intersections in a city in Andalusia (Spain).
