Quick Reference: Contact Information and Websites ---------------------- 18 1 Arrival Information Getting to UBC To get to the University of British Columbia from the airport via public transportation, you will take the Canada Line, part of Vancouver’s transit system, for part of the trip and a bus the rest of the way. Find basic instructions below; for more information, or to plan your own route, visit the website of Vancouver’s regional transportation, TransLink: http://www.translink.ca. The total travel time to UBC via this method should be 50-60 minutes, depending on transfer time. 1. Exiting the airport and getting to the Canada Line Most of you arriving at Vancouver International Airport (YVR) (http://www.yvr.ca/en/passengers) will clear Canadian Customs & Immigration at the airport. Please ensure that you have a valid passport (many countries require passports to have a minimum of six months validity past the date of travel). You will exit at the International Arrivals area. Those arriving on flights from within Canada will exit at the Domestic Arrivals area. Please follow signs for the Canada Line. International travelers will take the escalator outside the arrivals area up to the Canada Line platform. 2. Taking the Canada Line to the bus Before boarding the train, you should purchase a Compass Ticket for travel to UBC (adult fare is $7.75) at one of the Compass Vending Machines (CMVs) at the airport station. CVMs accept Canadian coins and bills (up to $20), and debit and credit cards. Note: Keep your ticket, as it will be needed for the bus transfer; please also keep your receipt for later reimbursement by ISSA. Take the train to King Edward Station (see the map of Canada Line stations, right). 3. Taking the bus to UBC Exit the train station. Immediately outside the station, on the same side of the street, find a bus stop for bus #25 (to UBC). Show your Compass Ticket to the driver as proof of payment. The bus trip will end at the UBC Bus Loop (the end of the line). See map, next page. Canada Line stations King Edward Station to UBC Bus Loop, 12:33 PM - 1:04 PM (31 min) Vancouver, BC V6T, Canada King Edward Station to UBC Bus Loop Map data ©2016 Google 2000 ft G oogle Maps Note: There are multiple ways to get to UBC from the Canada Line. If you miss the King Edward Station, and/or just want to take a different route, get off at the Broadway - City Hall Station and from there catch the #99 bus to UBC (you will need to cross the street). Note: For those who wish to take a taxi from the airport, this is your decision. ISSA will reimburse a maximum of $7.75 per person from the airport to UBC. The flat-fare taxi rate to UBC from YVR is $34. The rate back to YVR from UBC is metered, but fare is similar (depending on travel time and traffic). Getting to Accommodations All participants in ISSA will be housed at the Point Grey campus of the University of British Columbia. Student participants will be accommodated at the Ponderosa Commons, Cedar House, 2075 West Mall (http://vancouver.housing.ubc.ca/residences/ponderosa-commons/). Faculty participants will be accommodated in the West Coast Suites, 5961 Student Union Boulevard (http://www.ubcconferences.com/visitor-info/west-coast-suites/). 3 After arriving at the UBC Bus Loop, both the student and faculty accommodations are a short walk away. See maps with the walking routes for each, pages 4 and 5. Students: UBC Bus Loop > Ponderosa Commons, Cedar House Walking route from UBC Bus Loop to Ponderosa Commons Residence Note: Ponderosa Commons is a complex that spans multiple new buildings – and the Google map does not accurately show the latest footprint of new buildings at UBC. Please use the above map for general walking directions to the area of your accommodations (intersection of West Mall and University Boulevard) and please see the detail map, next page, for the exact location of the Ponderosa Commons – Cedar House (across north west intersection of University Boulevard and West Mall, from where “Ponderosa Commons Residence” is starred on the map above). 4 Detail of Ponderosa Commons buildings – Cedar House is building #4 5 .

  • Cambie Corridor Planning Program Phase 2
    APPENDIX B PAGE 1 of 11 APPENDIX B: Draft Public Benefits Analysis Appendix B provides a high level overview of the long term population projections for the Cambie Corridor, current levels of public benefits available to Cambie Corridor residents, a summary of Citywide standards for public benefits and amenities, as well as tools available for funding new amenities within existing City policy. 1. Introduction 2. Population Projections 3. Snapshot of Existing Conditions 4. City Standards for Public Benefits / Amenities 5. Financing Growth Tools 1. Introduction Communities require spaces and places to meet the social, cultural, and recreational needs of residents. Community centres, parks, child care facilities, and other services are provided within the City to meet these important needs. Access to amenities increase social interaction and participation in the local community, encourages active living, and enables residents to effectively react to issues of vulnerability and change. This Appendix includes foundational work that will help inform a more detailed public benefits strategy for the Cambie Corridor. 2. Population Projections The Cambie Corridor presents an ideal opportunity to focus density around transit and district energy to help us reduce our carbon footprint and take us towards our Greenest City Goals. The Plan for the Corridor includes opportunities for new residential development that would result in a population increase above what would be anticipated through redevelopment under existing zoning. Staff have estimated that the population in the study area could increase by approximately 13,500 people by 2041 projections are not equivalent to 100% build-out). As well, the Corridor currently hosts approximately 11,500 jobs, which is anticipated to increase by approximately 8,000 up to 19,500 jobs by 2041.
