  • 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.

  • Transit Agency Responses to COVID-19: a Review of Challenges and Opportunities for Continued Service Delivery
    Transit Agency Responses to COVID-19: A review of challenges and opportunities for continued service delivery By: Ellen McGowan April 2021 School of Urban and Regional Planning Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada Supervisor: Dr. Ajay Agarwal Copyright © Ellen McGowan 2021 Acknowledgements I would first like to acknowledge my supervisor, Dr. Ajay Agarwal, whose expertise was invaluable in formulating the research questions and methodology. Thank you for your support and generosity over the last two years. I would like to thank the Norman D. Wilson Fellowship for funding this research. I would also like to thank my parents and Mark for their endless encouragement. Finally, I could not have completed this report without the support of my friends at SURP. Although our time together was cut short, I’m grateful for all that first year brought us. 2 Executive Summary Background & Context The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has radically impacted public transport ridership and service provision across the country. Since the outbreak of the virus, transit agencies have had to adapt to new and rapidly evolving conditions. Many agencies modified services to reflect lower ridership levels and to ensure the safety of both riders and operators. These changes in service were guided by public health agencies, as well as major transit associations like the Canadian Urban Transit Association (CUTA) and International Association of Public Transport (UITP). Other agencies implemented precautionary measures like rear door boarding, temporary fare suspension, and reduced capacity limits to enable the safe continuity of operations. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, transit agencies are having to strike a balance between providing enough transportation options for essential travel and reducing service offerings to match the declining overall demand for mobility services.

  • Metrobus Market Assessment and Strategic Direc Ons Study
    Metrobus Market Assessment and Strategic Direcons Study FINAL REPORT 2011 St. John’s Transportation Commission (Metrobus) 2011 Market Assessment and Strategic Directions Study – Executive Summary EXECUTIVE SUMMARY STUDY PROCESS Metrobus engaged Dillon Consulting Limited to provide a Market Assessment and Strategic Directions Study for the St. John’s transit system. The need for this study was precipitated by the decline in reported transit ridership since the major service changes in 2007. Both the accuracy of ridership reporting and the integrity of the revenue collection and handling systems were reviewed. As well, a major onboard passenger survey was conducted on March 23rd, 2010 to understand the characteristics of current transit users and to probe their reactions to the recent service changes. Additional surveys were conducted with post secondary students, local businesses and the general public (through the Metrobus web site). Individual stakeholder meetings and focus groups with system personnel and transit users also contributed valuable input to the study. The current services were reviewed by an experienced team of consultants and suggestions offered for system enhancements and productivity improvements. Future transit market opportunities were identified for their potential to generate ridership growth and assessed for the resulting implications on Metrobus. Finally, the material gathered and analyzed was used to assist Metrobus management staff in updating their existing Five Year Strategic Plan for the period 2011 to 2015. KEY FINDINGS Concerning the integrity of the revenue collection and handling systems, the review indicated that there is no cause for concern. Duties are clear and separated, secure processes are in place and revenue is protected.
