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.

Corporate Report
CORPORATE REPORT NO: R120 COUNCIL DATE: June 24, 2019 REGULAR COUNCIL TO: Mayor & Council DATE: June 20, 2019 FROM: Acting General Manager, Engineering FILE: 8740-01 SUBJECT: Future of Rapid Transit in Surrey RECOMMENDATION The Engineering Department recommends that Council: 1. Receive this report for information; 2. Endorse the principles attached as Appendix “I” to this report; and 3. Authorize staff to develop a Long-Range Rapid Transit Vision for input into TransLink’s Transport 2050 plan. INTENT The intent of this report is to inform Council on TransLink’s update of the Regional Transportation Strategy (now called Transport 2050), outline recommended principles for future rapid transit expansion in Surrey, and request support from Council for the development of a long-range rapid transit vision for Surrey’s submission to TransLink for inclusion in the Transport 2050 plan development process. BACKGROUND The Success of Previous Regional Transportation Plans Transportation and land use are integrally linked, as demonstrated by Metro Vancouver’s long history of coordinating land use and transportation investments. Many of the first coordinated efforts to integrate transit and land use were identified as part of Metro Vancouver’s (at that time known as Greater Vancouver Regional District or “GVRD”) first “Livable Region Plan” that, in 1975, established an urban land use pattern aimed at focusing growth and development in compact urban centres supported by an integrated, multi-modal transportation network. In 1993, prior to the creation of TransLink, the GVRD prepared “A Long-Range Transportation Plan for Greater Vancouver”, known as Transport 2021. This plan was instrumental in identifying an end-state vision for transportation that included policies and capital improvements aligned with regional land use goals.

VFPA accordingly conducts project and environmental reviews of works and activities undertaken on these lands to ensure that the works and activities will not likely cause significant adverse environmental effects. This project and environmental review report and project permit (the Permit) documents VFPA’s project and environmental review of PER No. 18-044: Nanaimo Vancouver Passenger Only Ferry Service South SeaBus Terminal (the Project) proposed by Island Ferry Services Ltd. (the Operator) on behalf of the South Coast British Columbia Transportation Authority (“TransLink”) (the Applicant). This project and environmental review was carried out to address VFPA’s responsibilities under the Canada Marine Act, and to meet the requirements of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012 (CEAA 2012), as applicable. The proposed Project is not a CEAA 2012 “designated project” and an environmental assessment as described in CEAA 2012 is not required. However, VFPA authorization is required for the proposed Project to proceed and in such circumstances, where applicable, Section 67 of CEAA 2012 requires federal authorities to assure themselves that projects will not likely cause significant adverse environmental effects.

Customer Service Performance September 2016 West Coast Express
Customer Service Performance September 2016 West Coast Express © Synovate Table Of Contents Highlights and Recommendations 3 Project Objectives 8 Methodology 9 Detailed Findings 12 WCE Performance 12 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 • Performance ratings of WCE’s Overall Service have fully recovered from the dip observed in 2015, presently earning good-to-excellent ratings from a large majority of WCE riders (85%, versus 71% last September), and an average score of 8.6 out of 10. This strong overall performance is largely attributed to the improvements seen in most of the specific service attributes. • Similar to previous waves, WCE is rated highly by at least nine-in-ten WCE riders for having clean vehicles and stations; having courteous, competent and helpful staff; feeling safe from crime on-board and at the station; and having safe equipment. • Overcrowding is becoming a more noticeable issue this period, with good-to-excellent scores for that attribute trending down over the past 2 years (from 66% in September 2014 to 55% presently).
