  • (BRES) and Successful Integration of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) May 24, 2016
    Bolton Residential Expansion Study (BRES) and Successful Integration of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) May 24, 2016 The purpose of this memorandum is to review the professional literature pertaining to the potential develop- ment of a Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) in the Bolton Residential Expansion Study area, in response to the Region of Peel’s recent release of the Discussion Paper. The Discussion Paper includes the establishment of evaluation themes and criteria, which are based on provincial and regional polices, stakeholder and public comments. It should be noted that while the Discussion Paper and the Region’s development of criteria does not specifi- cally advocate for TOD, it is the intent of this memorandum to illustrate that TOD-centric planning will not only adequately address such criteria, but will also complement and enhance the Region’s planning principles, key points and/or themes found in stakeholder and public comments. In the following are research findings related to TOD generally, and specifically, theMetrolinx Mobility Hub Guidelines For The Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (September 2011) objectives. Additionally, following a review and assessment of the “Response to Comments Submitted on the Bolton Residential Expansion Study ROPA” submission prepared by SGL Planning & Design Inc. (March 15, 2016), this memorandum evaluates some of the key arguments and assumptions made in this submission relative to the TOD research findings. Planning for Transit-Oriented Developments TOD policy and programs can result in catalytic development that creates walkable, livable neighborhoods around transit providing economic, livability and equitable benefits. The body of research on TODs in the United States has shown that TODs are more likely to succeed when project planning takes place in conjunction with transit system expansion.

    Understanding Factors Associated With Commuter Rail Ridership A Demand Elasticity Study of the GO Transit Rail Network by Aaron Shantz A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Environmental Studies in Planning Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2021 © Aaron Shantz 2021 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that this thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Mode share in major North American cities is currently dominated by private automobile use. Planners have theorized that transitioning commuter rail systems to regional rail networks is a viable method to increase ridership and stabilize mode share. This process is currently underway in Ontario, Canada, as the amount and frequency of service is being increased throughout the GO Transit rail network via the GO Expansion Program. However, previous studies have shown that transit demand does not solely respond to service quantity expansions. Variables related to the built environment, regional economy, network characteristics, and socioeconomic status of the customer base can influence transit demand to varying degrees. Further, the literature states that the travel behavior of commuter rail users is unique, as access mode, distance, socioeconomic status, and the utility derived from varying trip types can differ compared to local transit users. These findings suggest that supplementary policies might be needed to reduce automobile reliance and stimulate demand for regional transit. Many transit researchers have conducted demand elasticity studies to identify what factors are significantly associated with transit ridership.

We welcome your input on preliminary design issues for this project. Please sign in at our registration table and pick up a comment booklet. The purpose of today’s session is to: Provide Mississauga Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project background and context Describe the current project and explain where we are in the preliminary design process Present preliminary design concepts of the busway stations Obtain your comments and suggestions on preliminary design issues Outline the next steps and how you can be involved WHAT IS BUS RAPID TRANSIT? Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is an integrated system for moving people by bus using dedicated road rights-of-way, called busways, for the operation of bus services. To maximize flexibility and reduce the need for transfers, stations are placed at key points along the busway where passengers can connect to other modes of travel (e.g. cycling, local bus, etc). MISSISSAUGA’S BRT The BRT system will improve the quality of life for those living and working in Mississauga. The Mississauga BRT system was originally planned in the early 1990’s to respond to forecast travel demand within and through the City of Mississauga. The Mississauga BRT system is part of a Greater Toronto Area- wide GO Transit initiative to create a high-efficiency east-west busway which will span from Oakville to Pickering. Mississauga’s portion of this BRT system will cover approximately 18 kilometres The City Centre Transit Terminal and the Highway 403 Bus Bypass Shoulders were built in the 1990’s as part of the BRT program.
