Rome, August 28, 2020 – Agreement closed on the possibility of humiliation Alabama spacing about him local public transport, until allowing 80% of the filling. This is what came out of the technical table that took place between Regions and the Ministry of Transport. This was reported by the Transport Committee of the Conference of the Regions. The main topic of the table was TPL and the reopening of schools. Taking into account the limited stay in the vehicles, the opening to a greater filling of public transport is opened, where it is possible to guarantee adequate measures to contain the risks of contagion. During the meeting, a document prepared by MIT was discussed in light of the indications made by Cts and the Regions took note of the partial acceptance of the requests made. The document could be approved on Monday at the Conference of the Regions.
Following the possible agreement on 80% vehicle loading, the Regions insisted on the need for Adequate resources are guaranteed to fund additional LPT services., intended to cover the r20% shelf. The Regions have also insisted that the new rules apply to all local public transport, including railways and school transport.
During the day, the problem of public transport at the time of the Covid-19 pandemic was discussed, thanks to the analysis and simulation of data provided by Asstra. The transportation problem – with the schools reopening and the need for distances, wrapped in simulation calculations, with stratospheric figures. To meet an expected demand for mobility equal to 85% compared to pre-Covid, in fact, an increase in 70% in urban and 42% in extra-urban of mileage “with an unsustainable need for buses and driver’s personnel” which at peak times would require approximately 19,400 additional buses and 31,000 drivers for a total cost of 1.6 billion euros.

The simulation was prepared by the study office of Asstra, the association that groups together local public transport companies. In the association’s calculations, compared to the current share of 60%, each point of increase in vehicle capacity would allow an overall savings for the system of 40 million.
The rule of interpersonal distancing provided by the Dpcm April 26, 2020 and modified by Dpcm June 11 2020 (confirmed by the Prime Minister’s Decree of August 7, 2020) – explains the association – has an immediate impact on the carrying capacity of local public transport. The principle of one meter separation between passengers on board has drastically reduced, until now, the number of seats offered and also the current derogation planned per meter in the case of vertical alignment of passengers requires operators to carry out a review general exercise and management solutions necessary to regulate flows.
Unavoidable interruptions
And Asstra continues: if in the period of lock and post lock the discomfort was relieved due to very low demand levelsOn the other hand, in mid-September, the inefficiencies that users, both school and professional, will have to suffer will be inevitable, since they will suffer a reduction in the supply of transport, totally inadequate to cover the expected level of travel.
The simulations show that, in road transport with current government regulations, the current system in the Rush hours It is capable of responding to a 60% recovery in demand compared to before Covid. Exceeding these percentages determines the need for increase service frequency. An attempt was thus made to estimate the percentage increase in the additional service necessary to offer a service capable of satisfying an expected level of demand of 85% (compared to pre-Covid) in the urban and extra-urban automotive sector, during peak hours. and consequently quantify the increase in productive factors useful to guarantee the service.
