  • UP Express Pricing Strategy Staff Report
    To: Metrolinx Board of Directors From: Kathy Haley, President, Union Pearson Express Date: December 11, 2014 Re: UP Express Pricing Strategy Staff Report 1. Executive Summary With the launch of Union Pearson (UP) Express in spring 2015, Toronto will join the ranks of other world class cities with an express rail service between downtown and the airport. UP Express will provide travellers with a fast, simple route that takes 25 minutes, and departs every 15 minutes for 19.5 hours a day. To inform the fare structure, research and analysis was completed on market trends and passenger demographics, as well as benchmarking against local and international transportation modes. UP Express has developed a fare structure based on the principles of Distance (fare by distance), Discounts (to build ridership), and Demand (ensuring enough ridership). The proposed UP Express one-way adult fare from Union Station and Toronto Pearson is $19 with the PRESTO card or $27.50 fare without the PRESTO card. Staff are proposing discounted prices for families, children, students, seniors, and airport employees who have a valid Toronto Pearson identification card. The proposed fare structure builds in the elimination of the $1.85 access fee originally required by the Greater Toronto Airports Authority (GTAA). 2. Recommendation Be it Resolved that: The Board of Directors approve the recommended fare structures as presented by UP Express on December 11, 2014. 3. Project Background Toronto’s dedicated Air Rail Link (ARL), the Union Pearson (UP) Express, is launching in spring 2015 and will be owned and operated by Metrolinx. The project is currently on-time and on-budget, and when launched it will run between Canada’s two busiest passenger transport hubs – Union Station in downtown Toronto and the Toronto Pearson International Airport (Toronto Pearson).

  • Miway - Update on Presto Device Refresh
    9.3 Date: January 25, 2021 Originator’s files: To: Mayor and Members of Council From: Geoff Wright, P.Eng, MBA, Commissioner of Meeting date: Transportation and Works February 10, 2021 Subject MiWay - Update on Presto Device Refresh Recommendation That the report titled “MiWay - Update on Presto Device Refresh“ dated January 25, 2021 from the Commissioner of Transportation and Works, providing an update on Presto Device Refresh along with capital costs incurred, be received for information. Report Highlights On December 6, 2017, Council approved the new Presto Operating Agreement (valid till 2027). The Director of Transit was authorized to procure directly from Metrolinx, and directly from PRESTO subcontractors, for PRESTO related services, technology, equipment, and infrastructure as defined in the Operating Agreement, subject to budget approval. The Presto Device Refresh Project was initiated (led by Metrolinx/PRESTO in collaboration with MiWay and other GTHA transit partners) in 2017/2018 to replace aging bus and station equipment. New devices have been installed on all MiWay Transit buses and in fixed locations (Bus Terminals, Community Centers) as of December 2020. These devices are built on a modern high performance, high security platform. This new platform provides PRESTO and MiWay with a futureproof solution that will enable new, flexible fare collection options such as time of day pricing, capping, e- Ticketing and open payments. The necessary capital budget required to support this critical business system initiative has been requested through the City’s business planning process. 9.3 General Committee 2021/01/25 2 Background The existing Presto fare collection equipment was developed prior to 2010 and deployed in late 2010 on MiWay buses.

  • Cross-Boundary Transit Service Integration Pilot Project
    9.8 Date: May 25, 2021 Originator’s files: To: Chair and Members of General Committee From: Geoff Wright, P.Eng, MBA, Commissioner of Meeting date: Transportation and Works June 9, 2021 Subject Cross-Boundary Transit Service Integration Pilot Project Recommendation 1. That the report to General Committee entitled “Cross-Boundary Transit Service Integration Pilot Project” dated May 25, 2021 from the Commissioner of Transportation and Works be received for information. 2. That Phase 1 of the Service Integration Pilot Project recommendations for enhanced cross-boundary travel be received for information. Executive Summary The Ministry of Transportation has convened a Fare and Service Integration (FSI) Provincial-Municipal Table that includes representatives of all transit agencies and aims to improve connections and the customer experience for inter-municipal transit travel. The Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) has engaged a consultant team to develop an agency-driven FSI model to present to the Provincial-Municipal Table in partnership with surrounding transit agencies including MiWay. Currently MiWay, along with several other 905 agencies, are prohibited from providing local service within City of Toronto, resulting in TTC providing duplicate service for their residents. In addition, transit fares are not integrated between the TTC and MiWay. In partnership with the TTC, the Burnhamthorpe Road corridor has been selected for a transit service integration pilot project in the near-term (targeting fall 2021). 9.8 General Committee 2021/05/25 2 Background For decades, transit service integration has been discussed and studied in the Greater Toronto Hamilton Area (GTHA). The Ministry of Transportation’s newly convened Fare and Service Integration (FSI) Provincial-Municipal Table consists of senior representatives from transit systems within the Greater Toronto Hamilton Area (GTHA) and the broader GO Transit service area.
