4 VIENNA: NETWORKING THE CITY SPACE FOR PEOPLE The systematic prioritisation of eco-friendly means of transport also opens up new possibilities for a more equitable distribution and more attractive design of streetscapes. Vienna will avail itself of this possibility for the gradual refurbishment of public space in order to permit novel and multifaceted forms of use. In the future and in particular in densely inhabited (residential) quarters, priority will not only be given to traffic management or the availability of parking slots, but to atmospheric quality, so that public space can be recovered for other forms of use, such as communication, business, leisure, play and culture. FROM STREET SPACE TO PUBLIC SPACE The recovery of public space calls for a profound change of paradigms in the planning and organisation of traffic: parking space management already constituted an important step to reduce the number of cars parked on the streets and hence to make room for other, non-commercial forms of use. Atmospheric quality, aesthetic appeal and functionality of the recovered space are enhanced e. g. by high-quality design and art in public space, by creating encounter zones , by redesigning now obsolete parking lanes as temporary and permanent street gardens and sitting areas or cycle lanes, by reducing traffic surfaces or by setting up and upgrading multimodal traffic infrastructure facilities (bike parking spaces, spaces for all types of sharing systems, etc.). The activities proposed are developed and conducted in co-operation with the municipal districts. New Car Park Programme Further development and implementation of an overall strategy (including an evaluation of measures taken so far) for parking space management in Vienna. Recovery of street space by means of the targeted reduction of street-level parking slots accompanied by the construction of subsidised underground car parks (> see below: New Car Park Programme). Promotion of the smooth coexistence of road users by means of instruments such as encounter zones. Decommissioning of selected road sections – streets no longer needed for motorised individual traffic are to be put at the service of walking, cycling and public transport or redesigned to improve their atmospheric quality. Implementation of local, temporary or permanent pilot measures to recover public space, mainly in areas with a dearth of public parks and playgrounds (> 4.2 Vienna revives – open spaces: green & urban – Flagship initiative: Vienna’s open space network). Implementation of standard cross-sections for newly built roads in urban development zones, as this approach takes more account of the great importance of eco-friendly means of transport than was usual in the past, offers sufficient space for walking, cycling and public transport and meets exacting design requirements. Concentration of traffic in main streets and large-scale traffic calming in residential zones, inter alia by means of 30 km/h (20 mph) zones, encounter zones, etc. The New Car Park Programme for Vienna promotes garage construction above all in locations where despite control measures of traffic policy, such as parking space management, the demand for parking slots is still massive. The subsidised construction of collective ga - rages in residential quarters will focus above all on Gründerzeit quarters and densely built-up urban zones with a clear need for more parking slots. The construction of additional parking slots is to create a shift towards more permanent parking slots in garages and significantly more room to move in public space for people (cycling, walking, lingering) and public transport. 110
DIVERSIFIED MOBILITY IN 2025 4.1 NEW INSTRUMENTS OF MOBILITY MANAGEMENT Sustainable mobility does not merely result from infrastructure but requires effective organisational models, networks, dialogue processes and co-operative ventures. In particular, success is contingent on the development and implementation of mobility concepts customised for different spatial and functional requirement profiles (residential quarters, business headquarters, industrial locations, etc.). In coming years, Vienna will increasingly opt for these co-operative instruments in order to join forces with partners for the formulation of traffic solutions that will prove of benefit for the urban society and the metropolitan region as a whole. MOBILITY MANAGEMENT FOR RESIDENTIAL QUARTERS AND COMPANY LOCATIONS Unattractive, long distances to reach the nearest public transport stop, a convenient garage slot close by and a lack of alternative mobility services result in undesirable competitive advantages for cars in residential quarters, at company locations and in shopping malls. In the future, Vienna will therefore demand mobility concepts that highlight how car trips triggered by new projects can be made as short and eco-friendly as possible. Moreover, the negative traffic effects of new, large-scale office sites and shopping malls will be significantly reduced by imposing the mandatory provision of efficient public transport links. ( 3.1 Vienna generates prosperity – a business, science and research hub – Initiative: Priority zones for office sites) Active softening of the mandatory legal provision to create a certain number of parking slots for any new construction project under the Vienna Garage Act ( Parking slot regulation) in order to implement innovative mobility concepts and mobility management measures together with project developers (based on the pilot project for the Vienna Main Station quarter). Such mobility management concepts may e. g. provide for attractive car sharing and e-bike offerings, for continuous information and sensitisation of residents/employees regarding eco-friendly mobility or the upgrading of walking routes to and from public transport stops. To safeguard that mobility concepts for large-scale urban development projects with numerous housing units and for large corporate sites and shopping malls will actually be implemented, suitable approaches and measures must be developed and carried through.
