City Bikes

• 2.44 billion US dollars• 6 km long commuter train tunnel• 1.4 km long railway bridge• Operations are scheduled to begin in 2017• To double the city’s track capacity and

improve service efficiency• Purification of waste water, noise reduction

through sound-attenuating tracks, the use of synthetic diesel, which provides users with clean air, and the recycling of excavated rocks

The City Line Project, or The Green Tunnel

• The City Centre is within the congestion tax zone

• All the entrances and exits of this area have unmanned control points operating with automatic number plate recognition

• All vehicles entering or exiting the congestion tax affected area, with a few exceptions, have to pay 10–20 SEK (1.09–2.18 EUR, 1.49–2.98 USD) depending on the time of day between 06:30 and 18:29

Solid Waste Management

Swedish Waste Management Sweden is the global leader when it comes to dealing with and recycling waste. Waste management is being continuously developed and is the result of long-term, patient work, not least on the part of municipalities and their companies in cooperation with private players.

How Swedish waste management works

• Municipalities – collection of household waste, transporting waste to a treatment centre for recycling, disposal or landfill

• Producers – waste that is subject to the statutory such as tyres, cars or batteries

• Businesses - disposing of non-household waste• Households are responsible for separating and depositing waste at

available collection points

Waste treatment methods• Material recycling such as packaging, return paper, scrap metal,

waste from electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE ) and batteries reduces their environmental impact, saves energy and economises on natural resources.

• Biological treatment is treated via anaerobic digestion or composting

• Energy recovery or Waste to energy• Landfill

How Waste Management Is Organized

• self-administration• municipal enterprises, independently or jointly with other

municipalities• joint boards• municipal associations.

Priority of wasteThe waste hierarchy’s order of priority are:• waste prevention• reuse• recycling• other recycling, e.g. waste-to-energy• disposal.

Landuse for Stockholm

Land use and general features in Stockholm

-Stockholm’s land area is nearly 1/3 urban, 1/3 water, and 1/3 green space. -Stockholm spreads over 14 islands, with 57 bridges connecting the city.

Stockholm - City of Water

a. Connective corridors• Stockholm features regional green wedges that connect from central city parks to the

suburbs of Stockholm County• These create both human enjoyment, and aid in maintaining the natural bio-diversity of

the area.

Major component of Stockholm

The strategy for green wedge areas fulfils a range of roles which include:

• Providing opportunities for agricultural uses and some industries to operate close to major markets.

• Preserving natural rural landscapes and land formations. • Preserving conservation areas close to where people live.• Preserving natural resources.• Providing and safeguarding sites for future infrastructure that

supports urban areas.• Providing opportunities for tourism and recreation.

b. Anchors/neighborhood parks• There are 12 large parks in Stockholm, each over 200 acres. These account for 1/3 of Stockholm’s

total open space. • Ekoparken—This Park is the World’s first urban national park. The park’s total acreage is 6,670.

Ekoparken is a typical Swedish park, in that it has both ecological value, as a home for rare insects and birds, and cultural value for Stockholmers.

• Individual and family benefits identified by users of local parks and recreation services:-Personal -Social -Facility/Activity -Environmental -Economic

Djurgarden Langbro ParkEkoparken

d. Natural areas and Shoreline• Wooded areas, and former farms that are publicly owned account for 1/5 of Stockholm’s

open space. Eighty-percent of Stockholm’s shoreline is publicly accessible, often featuring walking and bike trails.

e. Residential courtyards• Green and Living courtyards program—The City of Stockholm will provide assistance for

residents or property owners who wish to create a greener, sustainable courtyard for their residential building.
