Sidewalks for pedestrians, public transport so effective that it is easy to forget about your own four wheels \u2013 this is what a people-friendly city needs.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Oslo, like in the whole of Norway, clean transport is promoted e.g. by facilitating the use of EVs \u2013 for example providing convenient and easy access to a comprehensive network of charging points. They can be found literally everywhere: in parking areas (both under- and on the ground) and in places such as the Oslo City Hub \u2013 a logistics center for vehicles (now all of them are electric) of delivery companies and the post, therefore serving both business and the public sector. One can even hire an electric\u2026 motorboat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crucially, however, Oslo understands that although an EV is much better for air quality than a vehicle with a combustion engine, one should go all in and restrict the traffic of all passenger cars, substituting it e.g. with efficient and convenient public transport \u2013 obviously zero emission. Such an approach enables the city to gain something very valuable \u2013 cleaner and bigger space for people. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why the capital of Norway is electrifying all forms of public transport \u2013 not only busses, but ferries as well. The city is also developing its network of subway stations. All this so that the car is not indispensable for comfortably moving around the city. Revolution? More like evolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Ian-Flickr-Oslo-tramwaj-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1503\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Ian-Flickr-Oslo-tramwaj-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Ian-Flickr-Oslo-tramwaj-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Ian-Flickr-Oslo-tramwaj-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Ian-Flickr-Oslo-tramwaj-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Ian-Flickr-Oslo-tramwaj.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>(photo: Ian on Flickr)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Want cleaner air?

One indication is the fact that in the Norwegian capital a common Polish urban &#8220;sport&#8221; consisting in pedestrians sneaking along the walls of buildings to squeeze through a sidewalk blocked by cars is completely unknown. Despite the popularity of EVs, pedestrians in the city center are not overwhelmed by car infrastructure. Congestion and noise are much lower as well. This is in part due to the city policy of moving parking spots underground and setting parking prices at a level that incentivizes using alternative forms of transport, including public transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Pedro-Flickr-Oslo-aleja-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Pedro-Flickr-Oslo-aleja-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Pedro-Flickr-Oslo-aleja-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Pedro-Flickr-Oslo-aleja-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Pedro-Flickr-Oslo-aleja-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Pedro-Flickr-Oslo-aleja.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>(photo: Pedro on Flickr)<\/em><br><br><strong>Through the wallet to the lungs, or: the toll ring<\/strong><br>The idea behind the Oslo toll ring is simple: it encourages moving around it with public transport, by bike or on foot \u2013 rather than by car. However, if a car has to drive in there, it is better if it pollutes the air as little as possible. In other words: every car can enter, the question is how much it will cost. Drivers of fully electric cars pay half the fee for cars with combustion engines, while those powered by hydrogen do not have to pay at all. Petrol cars and cars with hybrid engines pay the full fee, while drivers of diesel cars over 3.5 tons are the ones that have to spend the most. Entry in the ring is more expensive during rush hours (6:30-9 am and 3-5 pm).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, those who pollute the air more, are facing a simple choice. They can pay a high fee for entry or use the attractive alternatives provided by the city. This is how Oslo comprehensively promotes clean transport: on the one hand, its toll ring encourages the use of means of transport with as little negative impact on air quality as possible, on the other \u2013 the money from the fees finances the development of such means. <em>\u2013 Environmental and health considerations were not the only reasons why we established a toll ring in Oslo. We also wanted to raise funds for the development of transport infrastructure. However, it is this infrastructure \u2013 for electromobility, for zero-emission public transport and for bicycles \u2013 that makes the city more friendly for residents and better for their health, and at the same time benefits the environment \u2013 <\/em>emphasized the director of the Oslo Climate Agency Heidi S\u00f8rensen. Such an approach is consistent with Norwegian clean transport policy. <em>\u2013 It is based on the premise that emissions should be discouraged before they happen, not penalized after the fact, when damage to the environment and health cannot be undone \u2013<\/em> said expert of the Norwegian EV Association (Norsk Elbilforeningen) Erik Lorentzen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The area covered by the Oslo toll ring is divided into three sub-rings \u2013 checkpoints are placed on their borders. Fees are collected in two cases: upon entry in the area (on entering the outside ring) and for every crossing of the border of an inside ring, regardless of the direction of travel (drivers only pay for one crossing per hour, those with the Autopass card have a 20-percent rebate). Hence, drivers who intend to intensively move around central Oslo but would rather not see their wallets take too much of a hit have a very tangible motivation to use public transport or bikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One advantage of Norwegian toll rings is the clear, integrated fee collection system, which can serve as an inspiration for Polish Low Emission Zones. It is based on stickers \u2013 the same in the whole of the country \u2013 which include all the necessary vehicle characteristics, in turn checked by cameras. Crucially, every vehicle entering the ring is checked. This means that to enter a toll ring in another city in the country, the inhabitants of Oslo need nothing more than the aforementioned sticker. Foreign drivers have to register their cars online \u2013 failure to do so results in an obligation to pay the highest entry fee at every checkpoint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Oslo_toll-ring-Kjetil-Ree-na-Wikimedia-Commons-v3-1024x768.png\" alt=\"The case of Oslo clearly shows that to take care of air quality and the health of inhabitants, it is not enough to simply substitute EVs for combustion engine vehicles \u2013 the city has to be organized in such a way that it is no longer dominated by any type of car.\" class=\"wp-image-1514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Oslo_toll-ring-Kjetil-Ree-na-Wikimedia-Commons-v3-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Oslo_toll-ring-Kjetil-Ree-na-Wikimedia-Commons-v3-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Oslo_toll-ring-Kjetil-Ree-na-Wikimedia-Commons-v3-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Oslo_toll-ring-Kjetil-Ree-na-Wikimedia-Commons-v3-1536x1152.png 1536w, https:\/\/sctlab.ios.edu.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Oslo_toll-ring-Kjetil-Ree-na-Wikimedia-Commons-v3.png 2001w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\"><em>(photo: Kjetil Ree on Wikimedia Commons)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Fees for entry in toll rings can be used for precisely defined goals \u2013 solely and exclusively to develop public transport infrastructure.
