This strategy defines the most important transit corridors for future development and road network improvement decisions to reinforce the corridors. Similarly, by describing service and corridors in terms of layers and the long term vision, the reason why different levels of investment may be applied to some areas over others is highlighted. The layers of service types are described in the table below and map on the facing page. The strategy is complemented by supporting measures (infrastructure, vehicles, passenger information, fares, etc.) and service options described on the following pages.

Overview The Metro Edmonton Region is growing rapidly, and with the growth comes the need to proactively manage how regional services are delivered. Transportation is one of the most critical services requiring regional coordination. Travel does not respect jurisdictional boundaries. To minimize the negative impacts of growth – sprawl, congestion, emissions and quality of life – and set the Metro Region up to be livable, efficient and globally competitive, requires regional integration of transportation.

  • Passenger Risk Mitigation Strategy (PRMS) for Leduc Transit
    Passenger Risk Mitigation Strategy (PRMS) for Leduc Transit Introduction In order to provide a regional public transit service, the transit service providers must apply for and be granted an Operating Authority Certificate from Alberta Transportation. The application must include a Passenger Risk Mitigation Strategy. The objective of the Passenger Risk Mitigation Strategy is to ensure compliance to existing standards and consistency with legislative and operational requirements, and demonstrate that the regional public transit provider has considered passenger safety issues and taken appropriate steps to mitigate the risks. The regional public transit service provider will make its Passenger Risk Mitigation Strategy available to its ridership, drivers and general public for review. The City of Leduc / Leduc County has awarded the contract to operate Leduc Transit to PWTransit Canada Ltd, a division of Calgary-based Pacific Western Transportation Ltd. PWTransit’s Training Program Overview PWTransit Canada Ltd. provides a comprehensive ten (10) day training program for new operators, designed to equip staff with knowledge to make decisions to safely operate Leduc Transit System vehicle. Included in this program is training specifically developed for regional and highway operations, which includes instruction on highway emergency procedures, highway bus operating procedures, regional service standards, routing and vehicle inspection procedures and reporting requirements.

    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.
