  • Appendix 5 Station Descriptions And
    Appendix 5 Station Descriptions and Technical Overview Stage 2 light rail transit (LRT) stations will follow the same standards, design principles, and connectivity and mobility requirements as Stage 1 Confederation Line. Proponent Teams were instructed, through the guidelines outlined in the Project Agreement (PA), to design stations that will integrate with Stage 1, which include customer facilities, accessibility features, and the ability to support the City’s Transportation Master Plan (TMP) goals for public transit and ridership growth. The station features planned for the Stage 2 LRT Project will be designed and built on these performance standards which include: Barrier-free path of travel to entrances of stations; Accessible fare gates at each entrance, providing easy access for customers using mobility devices or service animals; Tactile wayfinding tiles will trace the accessible route through the fare gates, to elevators, platforms and exits; Transecure waiting areas on the train platform will include accessible benches and tactile/Braille signs indicating the direction of service; Tactile warning strips and inter-car barriers to keep everyone safely away from the platform edge; Audio announcements and visual displays for waiting passengers will precede each train’s arrival on the platform and will describe the direction of travel; Service alerts will be shown visually on the passenger information display monitors and announced audibly on the public-address system; All wayfinding and safety signage will be provided following the applicable accessibility standards (including type size, tactile signage, and appropriate colour contrast); Clear, open sight lines and pedestrian design that make wayfinding simple and intuitive; and, Cycling facilities at all stations including shelter for 80 per cent of the provided spaces, with additional space protected to ensure cycling facilities can be doubled and integrated into the station’s footprint.

    Transit Service During Confederation Line Construction – Updates for 2016 REPORT TRANSIT SERVICES DEPARTMENT REPORT FAQs REPORT Transit Service During Confederation Line Construction – Updates for 2016 TITLE DIVISION: Customer Systems and Planning BRANCH Service Planning REPORT Pat Scrimgeour, Assistant General Manager, Customer Date: January 26, 2016 AUTHOR Systems and Planning SCHEDULED DATES FOR REPORT GM’s REVIEW OF REPORT TRANSIT COMMISSION COUNCIL January 19, 2016 February 17, 2016 N/A Q1. How long will the Confederation Line construction service adjustments last for? What are the next phases for service adjustments? A1. The O-Train Confederation Line is scheduled to open in 2018. Service adjustments will take place in sequential phases as sections of the Transitway undergo construction work. Each section of Transitway that closes for conversion to light rail will never reopen for bus operations. The remaining Transitway closures are: • April 2016 – Laurier Station to Lees Station; and • June 2016 – Tunney's Pasture Station to Merton Street. Timelines will be updated as information becomes available. Service adjustment plans will be implemented as these closures take effect. Stations will remain open during the construction period, with the exceptions of Cyrville Station, which was closed in June 2015, and Campus Station, which will close in April 2016. Q2. What are the main highlights of upcoming transit service adjustments during Confederation Line Construction? A2. The following are the main highlights of upcoming transit service adjustments during O- Train Confederation Line Construction: • On April 24, 2016, the Transitway will close between Laurier Station and Lees Station. Most transit service along this section of the Transitway will be relocated to Nicholas Street and Highway 417, using the bus-only lanes that have been built for this purpose.

  • CO00425 U-Pass Options for Spring and Summer Terms 2021 Report.Pdf
    U-Pass Options for Spring and Summer Terms . 2021 Recommendation That Executive Committee recommend to City Council: That a temporary exemption to City Policy C451H Edmonton Transit Service Fare Policy, for the period April 30, 2021 to August 31, 2021, to allow for fare program eligibility expansions, as outlined in the March 22, 2021, City Operations report CO00425, be approved. Executive Summary The regional Universal Transit Pass (U-Pass) provides eligible students at participating post-secondary institutions with unlimited travel on Edmonton Transit Service (ETS) and participating regional transit providers at a discounted rate for the school term. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, post-secondary institutions are continuing to deliver learning online and holding a limited number of classes and labs on campus into the spring and summer 2021 terms. Consequently, U-Pass was paused for the fall and winter terms, and that arrangement is recommended to be extended to the spring and summer terms in 2021. Effective September 2020, temporary measures were put in place to support students affected by the pause on U-Pass. These include access to the Ride Transit Program for qualifying students and an expansion of the age eligibility for youth fare products for post-secondary students as well as seniors fare products. Extending these temporary measures for the spring and summer terms would continue to address the gap for affected students. Report The regional Universal Transit Pass (U-Pass) is provided through contractual agreements between Edmonton Transit Service (ETS), St. Albert Transit, Strathcona Transit, Leduc Transit, Fort Saskatchewan Transit, and Spruce Grove Transit and four post-secondary institutions in Edmonton: University of Alberta, MacEwan University, NAIT and NorQuest College.

  • Making Transit Functional
    MAKING TRANSIT FUNCTIONAL A guide to a frequent, affordable, and accessible system in Winnipeg Prepared by FUNCTIONAL TRANSIT WINNIPEG March 16, 2015 [email protected] www.functionaltransit.com “Transit works best where there are many destinations along something that feels like a straight line.” – Jarrett Walker, Human Transit 1 PREFACE This report was compiled by Functional Transit Winnipeg Functional Transit Winnipeg is a grassroots group of Winnipeggers who volunteer their time to research and advocate for improved public transit. This group came together over the concern that the Southwest Corridor will make public transit worse for Winnipeggers. We advocate for improving bus frequency within Winnipeg Transit’s existing service. This report was compiled in order to explain the deficiencies of the current plan for the Southwest Corridor in Winnipeg, and to lay out an alternative strategy that would have a far more positive impact on public transit for the same price as the current project being undertaken by the City of Winnipeg. Our conclusions are drawn from publicly available data, reports from the City of Winnipeg and transit research. We have made every effort to be factually accurate in our assessment of transit service and investment in Winnipeg. The views expressed in this document are those of the author and contributors only. We welcome response and input from those individuals who may have a different interpretation or access to more information. We can be reached at [email protected]. Lead author: Joseph
