  • Customer Service Performance September 2020 West Coast Express
    Customer Service Performance September 2020 West Coast Express © Synovate Table Of Contents Highlights and Recommendations 3 Project Objectives 8 Methodology 9 Detailed Findings 12 WCE Performance 13 Trends in Transit Usage Among WCE Riders 22 Trends in WCE Usage 29 Customer Profiles 36 APPENDICES Appendix A – Survey Instrument 2 Highlights and Recommendations The revised West Coast Express Customer Service Performance Survey was launched in March 2003. The survey was redesigned to focus solely on the aspects of service that are most positively correlated with system performance ratings from customers. In addition, the redesigned survey implements the Transportation Research Board’s Impact Score Method to identify and prioritize those service attributes that are most negatively impacting the largest number of customers. This will assist in the prioritization of service improvements. 3 Highlights and Recommendations • Many of the significant shifts in top ratings for WCE service aspects may be attributable to riders’ changing perceptions and expectations as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 virus. As of March 11th, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic, and by March 16th the BC provincial government recommended stay- at-home directives and physical distancing precautions, which has greatly impacted the daily lives of transit riders. While restrictions have eased in recent months as the provincial government has moved BC into Phase 3 of its Restart Plan (which allows for safe travel and re-opening of businesses such as restaurants/bars), concern around the COVID-19 virus is highly relevant for the general public. As a result, the proportion of Captive WCE Riders has increased directionally (36%, up from 29% last period), which may have an impact on the results throughout the report.

  • 2017 05 11 Translink Increases Seabus Frequency
    MEDIA RELEASE TransLink increases SeaBus frequency 15-minute sailings will now run until 9 p.m. May 11, 2017 NEW WESTMINSTER, BC — Starting May 19, customers will benefit from another SeaBus service increase as part of TransLink’s continued roll out of Phase One of the 10-Year Mayors’ Vision for Metro Vancouver Transportation. This service increase means 15-minute sailings will start earlier on weekends and run until 9 p.m. every day, making it even easier to travel to or from the North Shore. SeaBus service increases include: 15-minute sailings starting at 6 a.m. on weekdays, 7 a.m. on Saturdays and 8 a.m. on Sundays and most holidays. 15-minute service will also extend later into the evening. This will allow customers to enjoy peak-hour service for departures until 9:02 p.m. from Lonsdale Quay and 9:16 from Waterfront Station every day. As part of Phase One of the 10-Year Vision, TransLink increased SeaBus service in January by doubling service on Sundays and holidays from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. With the May 19 increase, SeaBus joins the Frequent Transit Network (FTN), a network of corridors where transit service runs at least every 15 minutes in both directions through the day and into the evening, every day of the week. People traveling along Frequent Transit Network corridors can expect convenient, reliable, easy-to-use services that are frequent enough that they do not need to refer to a schedule. Other TransLink services that are part of the FTN include the Expo, Millennium and Canada lines, and B-Line bus service.

  • 1 the Phibbs Bus Exchange Redesign
    The Phibbs Bus Exchange Redesign: From Concrete and Asphalt to Raingardens and Bridges! Michelle Babiuk, Project Manager, Infrastructure and Network Management, TransLink Bernard Abelson, Transportation Planning Business Sector Lead, McElhanney (previously CH2M HILL) Paper prepared for presentation at the session: What are Transit-Supportive Environments? Innovative Indicators and Methodologies to Evaluate Transit Supportiveness of the 2016 Conference of the Transportation Association of Canada Toronto, ON 1 Abstract The Phibbs Exchange is a major bus Exchange located at the northern foot of the Second Narrows Bridge on the TransCanada Highway in the District of North Vancouver (DoNV). It serves 18 bus routes and 15,700 daily passenger trips. The Exchange provides connections between buses running to East Vancouver and Burnaby, and across the North Shore. Due to its poor passenger environment and its existing and long-term operational and capacity deficiencies, the Exchange was identified as a priority for upgrade in TransLink’s North Shore Area Transit Plan (NSATP), as well as DoNV’s Lower Lynn Transportation Strategy and Master Transportation Plan. The Exchange has a number of safety and operational deficiencies and challenges, exacerbated by the following: • Capacity - The Exchange does not have enough bus bays to accommodate the current bus services that operate at the Exchange, resulting in buses double-parking in bays. • Transit Circulation – The current transit circulation result in numerous conflict points and unsafe conditions for pedestrians, passengers, operators and cyclists. • Passenger Environment - Phibbs Exchange has long been perceived by passengers as unsafe and unwelcoming. This is partly due to the Exchange’s configuration which locates passenger areas on an island separated from the adjoining neighbourhood by bus drive aisles and a Highway 1 off-ramp.
