PLANS AND PROGRAMMES
THE URBAN MOBILITY PLAN 2001 – 2010 (PUM)     The contents of the PUM
The Urban Mobility Plan, edited by this Agency in collaboration with the Municipality technical sectors and approved by the Council in March 2001, is the instrument used by the Municipality to assess the infrastructural interventions of regulation/control and pricing on the  mobility within the city and the whole urban area of Milan.
It starts an integrated planning process between territory asset and transport system, in order to increase urban quality, fight traffic congestion and pollution, reaching the aim of better possibilities of movement either for people and for goods.

STUDIES AND PROJECTS

PRELIMINARY STUDIES FOR THE URBAN TRAFFIC DETAILED PLANS (PPTU)
After the approval of the Urban Traffic Plan, the Municipality gave charge to the Agency for the execution of detailed plans, for each Milan district area. The development of the territory, of the houses and of the industries, in the different districts of the city, makes it necessary to realise aimed interventions, in order to discipline, with graduality and opportune distinctions, the local mobility demand. These Plans represent the General Traffic Urban Plan (PGTU) operative instrument and permit also specific interventions on single territory micro-areas. The objective, in this case very ambitious, consist in the upgrade of the residential areas, increasing the circulation conditions, making safer the movements of people and vehicles.

THE ENVIRONMENTAL AREAS
The Environmental Areas, which realisation in Italy has been made possible thanks to the modification to the Road Code, are areas designed specifically in favour of weak users (cyclists and pedestrians); within these areas particular policies will be adopted: speed limits, prohibitions, one ways, parking regulation, upgrade of public transport, urban furnishment, different levels and pavements, lighting. The Environmental Areas make part of the objectives of urban improvement of the districts and their implementation regards the entire local road network.

THE SURVEY ON GOODS TRANSPORT  IN MILAN
The Municipality of Milan started, in collaboration with the Milan Politecnico and the co-ordination of the Agency, started up thew first phase an articulated and complex survey on the urban distribution of goods, which results have already been issued. The survey has the aim of building up a database able to describe the structure and the quantitative characteristics of freight transport, useful to support decisions, to orientate the plan and program policies for a strategic sector of the economy. The modalities of execution of the survey consist in the following activities:
  • study of the use characteristics of the territory, in relation to the goods transport.
  • collection of information regarding commercial activities, gross distribution and the classification of the existing structures.
  • road surveys.
  • surveys to the commercial and transport operators in order to build up the logistic chain.
  • Construction of the traffic model.
STUDY FOR THE APPLICATION OF ROAD PRICING IN MILAN  

The study aim consists in the individuation of the problems connected to the realisation of a road pricing system for the city of Milan, evaluating alternative scenarios, the urbanistic and economic consequences, the timing and the realisation costs.
The objective is the predisposition of a knowledge instrument, built with the help of different disciplines and systematic observed data, in order to build up a basis for a technical and economical evaluation for mobility planning chooses, which regard not only Milan but also the surrounding Municipalities.

PROJECT A.T.M.O.S.FE.R.A.  
Project A.T.M.O.S.FE.R.A will provide a decision support system (DSS) aimed to forecast critical pollution events; for this purpose, it will exploit data taken from the measurement network, such as air quality parameters and meteorological observations,  and meteorological forecasts issued by means of models. The DSS will  support  the Public Administration in detecting the most effective interventions to be applied on the urban area against atmospheric pollution. 
Mobility and Environment Agency, in collaboration with ENEA (Italian Agency for Alternative Energies Use),  provides scientific and technical support to the Milan Municipality in the project implementation.  
STUDIES ON NOISE POLLUTION
The municipal plan for noise and the bi-annual municipal acoustic report
IUnder the commitment of Milan Municipality, the Agency is drawing up the Municipal Plan for Noise Zoning, which will partition the municipal territory in acoustic areas, each one of them being characterized by a standard level of noise. Moreover, the Agency has been entrusted to draw up the Bi-Annual Municipal Acoustic Report,  a ‘snapshot’ of current  implementation of municipal laws. An electronic database will constitute the data repository for noise measures taken by several Authorities on the municipal territory.

REPORTS 

THE ANNUAL URBAN MOBILITY REPORT 2001   The Report contents
The annual report 2001 on the Milan mobility shows a frame of on-going works, which start giving operative solutions to the individuated problems in the short, medium and long term. This is the first focus on the Milan situation after the approval of the urban Mobility plan 2001-2010.
The document describes the state of the art of the public and private transport, with the new services and the construction works, which characterise the start of new programming and projecting infrastructures (primarily the underground extension and the upgrade of the road network).
The report shows also how the initiatives of the Municipality of Milan aimed at the development of a sustainable mobility are applied.

THE ANNUAL AIR QUALITY REPORTS   The Report contents
The Annual Air Quality Report is aimed to assess Air Quality level in the municipal territory. The report informs citizens and other Authorities about adopted preventive measures; moreover it points out obtained and expected results from planned interventions (DMA n. 163 - 21.04.1999).
During the first year of its activity the Environmental Area  of the Agency has drawn up, under the commitment of Milan Municipality, the ‘Annual Air Quality Report - Year 2000’, in cooperation with the Environmental Agency of the Lombardy Region (A.R.P.A. Lombardia).
Further environmental activities, related with the  Annual Air Quality Report, are the study and development of themes such as: 
  • Up-to date Local Emission Inventory;
  • Planning of Pollution Prevention Actions;
  • Local Air Quality Monitoring Campaigns.
  • Air Quality data for year 2000
  • Local Emissions Inventory
  • Pollution distribution maps
  • Emissions distribution maps
  • Assessment of Air Quality level
  • Local actions for pollution prevention
