Community Ingenuity, Perth ON And Robert Leitch, M.Ed. Sonoptic Media & Communications, Perth ON 2016-09-30 Rural Transportation Issues & Options Nelson Rogers & Bob Le... Page 6 of 156 AGENDA ITEM #6i) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The lack of transportation options for rural residents is a serious problem in many areas, including Lanark County. Transportation issues contribute to the exodus of youth, job-related challenges for both employers and employees, and have negative impacts on the health and wellbeing of seniors and people with disabilities or health issues. Improved access to transportation in Lanark County would contribute significantly to community attractiveness and prosperity. This study included a review of research on rural transportation, extensive surveys and interviews, public and one-on-one consultations, document collection, and an examination of potentially relevant case studies. It examined the significance of rural transportation for community wellbeing, the current state of transportation services and resources, issues related to the supply and demand of transportation options, identification of promising approaches, and implications for the next steps in transportation solutions. During the course of this research it was found that the breadth and complexity of rural transportation issues are not widely appreciated. Much of the input focused on particular target populations and/or certain types of destinations without recognition of how these related to broader transportation concerns. The lack of information about current transportation options was a challenge for many of the survey participants as well as for the researchers. Local social services agencies provided considerable information for this study, and revealed that there is a great deal of time and investment devoted to transportation in this sector. Issues around commuting to work proved to be quite complex, with the majority of commuting being within Lanark County, the increasing prevalence of part-time or flexible work schedules, and some significant changes in options for commuting to Ottawa. However, the review of case studies of rural transportation options showed that there are several examples of viable solutions to the kinds of transportation challenges facing Lanark County. The major areas which should be addressed include the formation of a Lanark County and Smiths Falls working group with responsibility to develop plans to: reduce the demand for transportation by facilitating active transportation and by using a service-to-people rather than people-to-service approach coordinate transportation information to facilitate access by users and to help providers avoid duplication or identify gaps use state-of-the-art technologies to facilitate coordination and promotion of transportation resources and options, and the development of new models investigate the feasibility of a public transit system through a deeper examination of current systems in relevant contexts, and alliances with key organizations with compatible mandates Sonoptic Media & Communications Page 2 Rural Transportation Issues & Options Nelson Rogers & Bob Le...

  • CCW 2020-238, Dated July 14, 2020, Regarding the County of Simcoe Transit LINX, Be Received
    To: Committee of the Whole Agenda Section: Corporate Services Division: Engineering, Planning and Environment Department: Transit Item Number: CCW - 2020-238 Meeting Date: July 14, 2020 Subject: County of Simcoe Transit – Transit Update Recommendation That Item CCW 2020-238, dated July 14, 2020, regarding the County of Simcoe Transit LINX, be received. Executive Summary This item provides an update on the Simcoe County Linx and Linx Plus Transit service before COVID-19, adaptations made during the pandemic, and the outlook moving forward. Simcoe County LINX transit service began operation in September 2018. The current conventional transit service operates along four corridors: • Route 1 – Barrie to Midland /Penetanguishene • Route 2 – Barrie to Wasaga Beach • Route 3 – Barrie – Oro-Medonte – Orillia • Route 4 – Wasaga Beach to Collingwood Route 5, Alliston to Bradford will begin on Tuesday, August 4, 2020 with free service for the first month. Fare service will commence on Route 5 in September 2020. Route 6 Penetanguishene/ Midland – Tay – Severn – Oro-Medonte – Orillia will have a later start date of early fall due to the delay of bus deliveries as a result of COVID-19. Transit service levels have been reduced as ridership has decreased due to COVID –19. Transit staff will continue to monitor COVID-19 ridership levels and plan for reintroduction of service hours as required. Based on average ridership numbers and average fares seen prior to March 23 it is estimated that approximately $133K in fare revenues have been foregone (waived) between March 23 and the end of June. Transit service reductions began in April and savings are estimated to total approximately $214K.
