Councillor Hunter Madsen, Jennifer Mills, Chair Committee Coordinator Transportation Committee - 4 - May 15, 2019 #466259 File: 01-0360-20-06-01/2019 TC - Agenda - 2019 06 19 7 Item 4.3a 5.0 Transit Discussion Paper #1 Port Moody Master Transportation Plan 45 ExistingDiscussion Transportation Paper 1 Conditions – Setting the Context TC - Agenda - 2019 06 19 8 Item 4.3a Public transit is the primary alternative to automobile travel in Port Moody and across the region. Public transit can offer competitive travel times and reduce overall environmental and community impacts of vehicle transportation. For those who do not drive, transit can often be the only option for getting to jobs, school, shopping areas, and recreational centres. Transit services in Port Moody, and throughout the Metro Vancouver region, are planned and funded by TransLink and operated by various subsidiary companies. Decisions about fares, routes, and service levels are all made through TransLink and based on TransLink’s information and planning. Public transit buses are operated by Coast Mountain Bus Company (CMBC), and SkyTrain is maintained and operated by British Columbia Rapid Transit Company (BCRTC). Ultimately, TransLink is responsible for funding, planning, operating, and maintaining transit services throughout Metro Vancouver. City staff, however, work with TransLink on matters influencing current and future services as representatives of the community. In this regard, the Master Transportation Plan will provide the City with an opportunity to examine the role of transit within a multi- modal framework to support and shape land use patterns and other City aspirations. The preferred directions and priorities for the long-term plan can be then used as input and guidance to the Northeast Sector Area Transit Planning process, which is currently underway. The existing transit system in Port Moody is made up of a variety of service types, including local bus service, regional bus service, B-Line service, West Coast Express,

  • Customer Service Performance September 2016 West Coast Express
    Customer Service Performance September 2016 West Coast Express © Synovate Table Of Contents Highlights and Recommendations 3 Project Objectives 8 Methodology 9 Detailed Findings 12 WCE Performance 12 Trends in Transit Usage Among WCE Riders 22 Trends in WCE Usage 29 Customer Profiles 36 APPENDICES Appendix A – Survey Instrument 2 Highlights and Recommendations The revised West Coast Express Customer Service Performance Survey was launched in March 2003. The survey was redesigned to focus solely on the aspects of service that are most positively correlated with system performance ratings from customers. In addition, the redesigned survey implements the Transportation Research Board’s Impact Score Method to identify and prioritize those service attributes that are most negatively impacting the largest number of customers. This will assist in the prioritization of service improvements. 3 Highlights and Recommendations • Performance ratings of WCE’s Overall Service have fully recovered from the dip observed in 2015, presently earning good-to-excellent ratings from a large majority of WCE riders (85%, versus 71% last September), and an average score of 8.6 out of 10. This strong overall performance is largely attributed to the improvements seen in most of the specific service attributes. • Similar to previous waves, WCE is rated highly by at least nine-in-ten WCE riders for having clean vehicles and stations; having courteous, competent and helpful staff; feeling safe from crime on-board and at the station; and having safe equipment. • Overcrowding is becoming a more noticeable issue this period, with good-to-excellent scores for that attribute trending down over the past 2 years (from 66% in September 2014 to 55% presently).

Consulting Ltd. www.kirkandco.ca Synovate Ltd. Summary Report Kirk & Co. Consulting Ltd. is recognized as an industry leader in designing and Preliminary Design Consultation implementing comprehensive public and stakeholder consultation programs. Utilizing best practices in consultation, the firm designs consultation programs to maximize opportunities for input. Kirk & Co. works with polling firms to independently analyze and report on large volumes of public and stakeholder input. Synovate Ltd. is an internationally recognized market research firm. All consultation input received by feedback form and written submission was independently verified and analyzed by Synovate. Participants self-selected into consultation rather than being selected randomly. Consultation feedback is not comparable to an opinion poll because respondents do not constitute a random sample. The views represented in this report reflect the priorities and concerns of consultation participants. They may not be representative of the views of the communities along the Evergreen Line and other stakeholders because participants self-selected into Preliminary Design Consultation. Although results are presented in the form of percentages, there are no margins of error for this data because there is no probability sample. The sample in question is based on self-selection, for which a sampling error cannot be measured.

  • Acknowledgement
    ACKNOWLEDGEMENT This Economic Profile was originally produced by the Chamber of Commerce Serving Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody under the direction of the Chamber's Economic Development Committee in 1986 and has since been updated several times. The funding for the Economic Profile was provided in part by the local Municipalities and the Chamber of Commerce. We would like to recognize the following groups or individuals for their assistance; this profile would not have been possible without: The City of Coquitlam The City of Port Coquitlam The City of Port Moody Metro Vancouver The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver Fraser Health (Simon Fraser Health Unit) Organizations that contributed a tremendous amount of assistance and information were: The Metro Vancouver Strategic Planning Dept. Statistics Canada Fraser Health (Simon Fraser Health Unit) The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver Coquitlam City Planning Port Moody Planning Port Coquitlam City Planning The Province of British Columbia Tri-Cities Welcoming Communities For a project of this nature, there are many organizations and individuals who, at some point in the process, take time to assist in bringing the Profile together, but who go unmentioned simply because of the constraints of space and because they are so great in number. To those people and organizations, the Chamber of Commerce extends its appreciation for their work and effort toward a job well done. Much of the statistical information in the Economic Profile is obtained from Statistics Canada’s 2016 Census. We work very hard to verify all the published statistics but absolute accuracy cannot be guaranteed due to the multiple sources accessed.
