    Attachment 1 Saskatoon Transit 2015 Annual Report Saskatoon Transit 2015 Annual Report INTRODUCTION Public Transit services in Saskatoon began on January 1, 1913 with the establishment of the Saskatoon Municipal Railway. Approximately 5,200 people used streetcars that first day of service. Over the years, the types of vehicles changed as did the name, eventually becoming Saskatoon Transit. In July 2004, the next big chapter started when Access Transit was established as the Demand Response section of Saskatoon Transit. Access Transit is meant to provide service to those who are unable to use regular transit with safety and dignity. In 2013, Saskatoon Transit celebrated 100 years of making connections within the community and continues to do so today. In 2015, ridership was approximately 8.5 Million Fixed Route or Conventional Transit riders and 132,000 Demand Response or Access Transit trips. To provide that level of service, Saskatoon Transit used the following: Terminals located at: Confederation Mall; Lawson Heights Mall; Centre Mall; Place Riel at the University of Saskatchewan; 23rd Street Transit Mall; and Market Mall. A fleet of 184 buses: 158 Serving Fixed Route demands: 142 conventional 40-foot diesel buses, of which there are still 39 High floor; 10 articulating low floor 62-foot diesel buses; 6 mid-sized low floor 26-foot diesel buses; and 26 mid-sized para transit diesel buses providing Access Transit Demand Response services.

Stop- and alignment-level service frequency is defined as the total number of transit routes and transit trips passing through a specific alignment segment or a specific stop location. Alignments are generalized and stops nearby stops aggregated. The app makes data easily accessible through visualization and download tools.

Access Transit service is NOT a taxi service. It is a shared ride service where booking and scheduling decisions are made to allow as many riders as possible to use the system while staying within our budgetary guidelines. Operators attempt to keep travel times under 60 minutes; however passengers may encounter travel times of up to 75 minutes.

  • Transit Agency Responses to COVID-19: a Review of Challenges and Opportunities for Continued Service Delivery
    Transit Agency Responses to COVID-19: A review of challenges and opportunities for continued service delivery By: Ellen McGowan April 2021 School of Urban and Regional Planning Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada Supervisor: Dr. Ajay Agarwal Copyright © Ellen McGowan 2021 Acknowledgements I would first like to acknowledge my supervisor, Dr. Ajay Agarwal, whose expertise was invaluable in formulating the research questions and methodology. Thank you for your support and generosity over the last two years. I would like to thank the Norman D. Wilson Fellowship for funding this research. I would also like to thank my parents and Mark for their endless encouragement. Finally, I could not have completed this report without the support of my friends at SURP. Although our time together was cut short, I’m grateful for all that first year brought us. 2 Executive Summary Background & Context The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has radically impacted public transport ridership and service provision across the country. Since the outbreak of the virus, transit agencies have had to adapt to new and rapidly evolving conditions. Many agencies modified services to reflect lower ridership levels and to ensure the safety of both riders and operators. These changes in service were guided by public health agencies, as well as major transit associations like the Canadian Urban Transit Association (CUTA) and International Association of Public Transport (UITP). Other agencies implemented precautionary measures like rear door boarding, temporary fare suspension, and reduced capacity limits to enable the safe continuity of operations. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, transit agencies are having to strike a balance between providing enough transportation options for essential travel and reducing service offerings to match the declining overall demand for mobility services.

  • Mar 24/16 Transportation Standing Committee
    Use of Accessible Transportation to Support Access-A-Bus Services Transportation Standing Committee - 2 - March 24, 2016 DISCUSSION The Access-A-Bus paratransit service is intended to transport people with mobility, sensory and/or cognitive challenges who cannot utilize conventional transit. For many users, the service is necessary to access vital services and enhance quality-of-life. Access-A-Bus Service Demand As illustrated in Table 1 below, there has been a steady increase in service demand since 2012. While additional staff and vehicles have been added to the fleet, demand has outstripped supply; clients who cannot be booked for a trip on a service day are placed on a wait list. The wait list annual totals are illustrated in Table 2. While there was a slight reduction in the annual wait list figures for 2015, this statistic is considered an aberration and the upward trend is projected to continue for follow-on years as demand continues to increase at a pace greater than service supply. 2012-2015 Trips Requested 250,000 192,519 / +3% 196,518 / +2% 200,000 186,922 / +23% 152,371 150,000 100,000 50,000 - 2012 2013 2014 2015 Table 1: Increase in Access-A-Bus Service Demand 2012-15 Access-A-Bus Annual Wait List Totals 6011 6298 6084 4249 2012 2013 2014 2015 Table 2: 2012-2015 Access-A-Bus Annual Wait List In the pursuit of a solution, additional staff and paratransit vehicles will not necessarily address the challenge. While the Access-A-Bus scheduling staff makes every attempt to batch bookings and trips for each paratransit vehicle in the most efficient way possible, the travel patterns and schedules of individual clients often require trips to destinations, local or remote, with only one or two passengers onboard; this is not an optimal use for a scarce vehicle resource of relatively large capacity.

    Attachment 1 Saskatoon Transit 2016 Annual Report 2016 Saskatoon Transit Annual Report INTRODUCTION Public Transit services in Saskatoon began January 1, 1913, with the establishment of the Saskatoon Municipal Railway. Approximately, 5,200 people used streetcars that first day of service. Over the years, the types of vehicles changed as did the name, eventually becoming Saskatoon Transit.

Access Transit is meant to provide service to those who are unable to use regular transit with safety and dignity. In 2013, Saskatoon Transit celebrated 100 years of making connections within the community and continues to do so today. Fixed Route or Conventional Transit ridership is calculated in two methods: Electronic ridership and Calculated (formula-based) ridership. Calculated ridership is used for Canadian Urban Transit Association (CUTA) reporting as it is comparable with other properties who do not have electronic fare boxes, it was also the measure used for determining the allocations for Phase 1 of the Public Transit Infrastructure Fund (PTIF). In 2016, ridership was approximately 8.5 Million Fixed Route or Conventional Transit riders, 12.3 Million for electronic- based ridership and 134,000 Demand Response or Access Transit trips. To provide that level of service Saskatoon Transit used the following: Terminals located at: Confederation Mall; Lawson Heights Mall; Centre Mall; Place Riel at the University of Saskatchewan; 23rd Street Transit Mall; and Market Mall. A fleet of 187 buses: 161 serving Fixed Route demands: o 145 conventional 40-foot diesel buses, of which there are still 31 High floor; o 10 articulating low floor 62-foot diesel buses; o 6 mid-sized low floor 26-foot diesel buses; and 26 mid-sized para transit diesel buses providing Access Transit Demand Response services.
