UPDATE: COVID-19 PUBLICATION IMPACT The publication of this report has been delayed by three months due to the COVID-19 global pandemic. This report, and the majority of research included within it, was completed primarily between September 2019 and March 2020 – prior to the novel coronavirus pandemic affecting local economies and transit revenue across Canada. While efforts have been made to include relevant announcements by Canadian transit agencies since that time, specifically as they relate to electric buses, many investment decisions and funding programs related to municipal green infrastructure deployments may change this year as a result of the financial crisis unfolding in cities across the country.

Origin Following successful applications to the Community Transportation Grant and Ontario Gas Tax funding programs, the Five Year Transportation Needs Assessment and Growth and Sustainability Plan project was initiated with the goal of creating a community transportation network that effectively serves Muskoka, with a focus on vulnerable residents. To that end and to ensure the available funding is spent efficiently, an external consultant was retained to assess transportation needs and challenges and to recommend solutions. The project is now at the point where the consultant is seeking additional feedback from stakeholders and the Community and Planning Services (CPS) Committee on potential transportation options before finalizing their report and recommendations. Background information can be found in Report CPS-11-2019-7, and a summary of transportation funding sources currently being received by The District Municipality of Muskoka (the District) is included in Appendix “I”. Background Funding in the amount of $674,382 was secured through a Community Transportation Grant from the Ministry of Transportation. Total funding for community transportation initiatives also includes Provincial Gas Tax Funds and District contributions. The Community Transportation Grant is to be flowed from 2019-2023, and the other funding sources may vary annually depending on a variety of factors but are anticipated to be approximately $110,600 per year.

    Staff Report #1 April 25, 2018 To All Commissioners Re: Industrial Service Strategy Update Recommendation That the Commission ENDORSE the following service delivery models as options for discussion at the May 15, 2018 meeting with Industrial Service stakeholders: • Fixed Route • Trippers • Branch Route • Employment/Industrial Shuttle • On-Demand Service • Dynamic Service Delivery Options including: o First Mile / Last Mile o Micro Transit o Flex Routes o Specialized Integration o Guaranteed Ride Home o Trip Planning Integration Background At the January 25, 2017 meeting, the Commission requested a review and update of the data used to inform the Industrial Service Strategy, including an assessment of the areas where Londoners currently are unable to access employment opportunities in industrial areas via regular public transit due to gaps in either service coverage or time of day. Further, the request was to involve the London Economic Development Corporation as well as the London Chamber of Commerce in the review, noting opportunities for new delivery models may be identified, including but not limited to partnering with businesses in the area to cost-share the service delivery. The focus of the industrial service review are lands zoned industrial, which currently have transit service provided during limited times of the day or are without nearby transit service. The areas identified are: the Airport Industrial area, Sovereign Road, Veteran’s Memorial Parkway (VMP/401), Wilton Grove and Exeter/White Oaks Road. Transit services to modern industrial areas are a complex issue influenced by a number of challenges, many of which are competing in nature. The complexities and challenges associated with providing transit service to industrial areas are not limited or unique to London.
