1 Regional Railway System in Lombardy Region Elena Foresti Lombardy Region, Infrastructure and Mobility Department 1

2 Regional Railway Service in Lombardy km of railway network 400+ railway stations trains per day along 62 lines 36,7 million trains*km per year (16% of Italian regional traffic, +32% since 2001) FS RFI: Long distance & regional High Speed Regional Ferrovienord: passengers per day 2 service contracts: Trenord (direct award), Line S5 (tendered in 2004) 477 M /year in 2011 (+54%, since 2001). 2

3 Getting started

4 Subjects involved Network managers Holding Railway operators Regulators Management of train circulation Maintenance of tracks, stations Timetable planning Information to users Cleaning of stations Trains (drivers, guards) Train maintenance Cleaning of trains Ticket offices Commitment Subsidy Fares RFI FS Trenitalia Italian state Ferrovienord FNM Trenord LeNORD+Trenitalia Lombardy Region

5 How does it work Network managers Holding Railway operators Access charge (access contract) Other regions Service contracts Regional RFI FS Trenitalia Freight Train leasing Contract for infrastructure Access charge Train leasing Italian State Train leasing Trenord Long Distance Service contract Ferrovienord Service contract for network subsidy Contract for infrastructure FNM Lombardy Region Service contract subsidy

6 New capacity available on Lombardy rail network Important works have been completed on railway network in : 4 tracks towards Milan city centre on Ferrovienord network, between Milano Bovisa and Milano Cadorna (2007) 4 tracks between Milano and Treviglio (2007) The Passante Ferroviario finally completed, after 26 years of work (2008) High Speed line Milano Bologna (2008) 2 tracks between Milano and Lecco (2008) 2 tracks between Milano S. Cristoforo and Albairate, line towards Mortara (2009) High Speed line Milano Novara Torino (2009) 2 tracks in Castellanza (connection to Malpensa Airport, 2010) New stations: Camnago (2006), Romolo (2006), Rho Fiera (2008), Pregnana Milanese (2009), Pozzuolo Martesana (2009), Arcene (2009), Levate (2009), Stezzano (2009), Levata (2009), Albairate (2009), Cesano Boscone (2009), Ferno Lonate (2009). 6

8 Designing the service

9 Guidelines: Moving Always, Moving Everywhere Moving everywhere, not only towards Milan Moving always, not only in peak hours Moving people, not train and buses Building a system, not just a set of trains Frequency for short distance trips Speed for medium distance trips Offering a system of services not only single trips: coordinated timetables coordinated information unique fare system Public transport is truly effective if: it is available during the whole day it reaches every place (with a sequence of connected services, when necessary) 9

10 A Structured and Ordered System...able to offer the best performance for each kind of trip U Bahn S Bahn Regio 10 km Express 30 km 60 km City Centre More frequency when it is required (closer to the city centre) More speed when it is important (running far away from the city centre) 10

11 coming from 1982 Regional Master Plan The structure of Regional Railway Service first appears in Transport Master Plan of Lombardy Region issued in 1982, when started the construction of Passante Ferroviario The Master Plan already defined a hierarchy of railway services for regional connections: the suburban service ("comprensoriale", presently the S lines), for areas closer to Milan, stopping in each station, with a fixed frequency of at least 30 minutes; the regional service ("regionale", presently RegioExpress), to connect Milan with areas beyond the suburban border, travelling without stops in the suburban area and then stopping in the other stations; Original leaflet dated 1982 (description of services is taken from this leaflet) the direct service ("interpolo", presently CityExpress), to connect main regional stations, with few intermediate stops. 11

12 S Lines and Regio Lines

13 S Bahn... a train like an Underground 11 S Lines designed as a suburban system around Milan direct access to city centre and connection to the underground network frequency of 30 minutes running all the day, all days in year easy connection with other trains and buses new rolling stock, suitable for suburban service specifically designed information a simple and unique fare for the whole regional system First S Lines running since December 2004 Network almost completed in

14 S Bahn, December 2004: Setting up the System 5 lines in the Passante 2 lines to Milano Cadorna 1 peripheral line Passante of Milano since 2004: 10 trains per hour direction 14

15 S Bahn, December 2009: towards South East 5 lines in the Passante 2 lines in Milano Porta Garibaldi (to the North area) 2 lines in Milano Cadorna 1 peripheral line 1 crossborder line in Como 10 trains per hour direction Lines extended towards the South East areas 15

16 S Bahn, December 2011: towards the Goal 5 lines in the Passante 2 lines in Milano Pta Garibaldi 2 lines in Milano Cadorna 1 peripheral line 1 crossborder line in Como 10 trains per hour direction Lines extended towards the South West areas

17 S Bahn, December lines in the Passante 2 lines in Milano Pta Garibaldi 2 lines in Milano Cadorna 1 peripheral line 1 crossborder line in Como 10 trains per hour direction S9 from Seregno to Saronno

18 R Lines... an Added Value for the Whole Region As S Bahn system now travelling along the the suburban stations, No need to stop in intermediate S stations for regional services. a new design also for regional trains, in order to obtain faster connections for the whole Region Regio: for faster connections of peripheral areas towards Milan es. Brescia Treviglio with stops and then non stop to Milan; Varese Saronno and then non stop to Milan, etc. Regio Express: for fast connections among main cities from Milan to Lecco Sondrio, Cremona Mantova, Bergamo, Brescia Verona, Varese, Como 18

20 Easy and understandable

21 An Ordered Timetable Timetables in Lombardy have been designed "in an ordered way". Milano Piacenza (before 2010): traditional timetable Milano Varese: ordered timetable with constant frequency (Taktfahrplan) 21

22 New Clock Face Scheduling (Taktfahrplan) Before and after December 2008 Verolanuova station (diesel branch line) Before After Before After Desio station (S Bahn) 22

23 Describing the service: easy and understandable 23

24 How Is the Service Changing in... New lines Treviglio-Milano Passante-Varese, Treviglio - Milano Passante - Novara all trains stop in all stations between Treviglio and Segrate (suburban area) then they travel through the Passante and stop in 8 stations inside the city of Milan they cross all 3 underground lines (M1 M2 M3), finally they go on towards Rho Fiera, Rho and Gallarate/Varese or Novara. 96 trips per day Treviglio Milano Passante Rho Novara/Varese Stations of Milano Lambrate, Centrale, Greco Bicocca can be reached by changing train in Pioltello or Milano Porta Garibaldi 24

34 About new services

35 Getting more people on board

36 Is there more people to get on board? 92% of the population in municipalities, at most, 5 km from a rail station Municipalities without rail station, far < 5 Km from the nearest one Population

37 Station as a public transport hub Symmetrical Clock-Face Scheduling 37

38 also Public Trasnport hub? 38

39 Why not mobility hub?

40 Gaining a better quality of life 2015: 1 million rail passengers daily PT passengers = km car queue = More space for a better life Finkbohner Zurch Consultants
