Light Rail Day 2017 - i Aarhus d. 11-12. september

 
04.09.2017
Nyt og endeligt program for Light Rail Day - konferencen d. 11-12.09.2017 i Aarhus.

 
Monday, 11.09.2017

10:30 We will start the Light Rail Day by driving to the depot of Aarhus Letbane. There will be a guided tour, we will have the opportunity to see and study the new trams in the workshop and the OCC.

After a short break, where there will be served a little lunch, we continue in busses along the route of the tram in Aarhus. This bus-trip is arranged due to the fact, that Aarhus Letbane unfortunately not have been given permission to drive with passengers before the official opening day, the 23rd of September. Going by bus, we will be given the possibility to stop at the University and the Hospital to take a closer look at the tracks and infrastructure.

Back at the Hotel Scandic there will be very interesting speaches held by:

Luise Pape Rydahl, Centermanager, Department Technique and Environment Aarhus City "Light rail - urban Development perspectives for Aarhus"

Jørgen Hansen, Construction Manager Aarhus Letbane "Special challenges: Building Denmarks first light rail system"

3 Days Study Trip to Germany in October 2017

Light Rail Day offers a three-day study trip in cooperation with “Stadtbahngestaltung” and Stephan Besier, to Leipzig, Chemnitz und Zwickau in Germany from 22. -24.10.2017. The experienced guides Bernd Reuß and Stephan Besier have prepared a very interesting program. Stephan has worked as designer and planner for years on many projects in Leipzig and Chemnitz to develop the transport systems and look at Urban integration. You will see how trams operate in narrow streets, bicycle solutions, share space with cars and experience what has been done to reduce negative effects of mix use to speed up tram operations. We discover how they challenge the barrier free access and we will visit design solutions, overhead pole, green tracks and new stops.

We will discuss safety aspects with people from transport companies or city officials, right on the spot. More information and details on how to register can be found on the Light Rail Day homepage under the heading “Study Trip“.
