  • Green Line Update Stage 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Green Line Is Important to the Future of Calgary and Benefits All Calgarians
    Page 1 of 19 Item # 7.1 Green Line Report to ISC: UNRESTRICTED Green Line Committee GC2020-0583 2020 June 01 Green Line Update Stage 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Green Line is important to the future of Calgary and benefits all Calgarians. It represents a significant investment in our transportation network, in our communities, and the future of our city. In its entirety, Green Line will deliver high-quality transit service to Calgarians in north central and southeast communities, and strategically connect communities, employment hubs, and key destinations for Calgarians who live and work across the city. Green Line will not only provide more mobility choice for Calgarians and enhance future community building, moving forward with Green Line today will ready Calgary for tomorrow’s recovery. Green Line Stage 1 will be an important part of Calgary’s economic recovery. The Stage 1 investment will create an estimated 20,000 jobs and comes at a critical time when it is important to bolster Calgary’s economy. Green Line is also a long-term investment in the growth and development of our city, it will be part of Calgary’s global competitive advantage and will help attract new businesses and a young, talented workforce to our city. In July 2019, Administration advised Council of the need to re-evaluate the scope of Stage 1 to bring the Program’s cost estimates within budget, manage construction risk and improve the customer experience to best achieve the Green Line vision. Council directed Administration to undertake a review of the Stage 1 alignment and to complete a series of due diligence activities to confirm that Stage 1 has the right alignment, that Stage 1 is the right project for Calgary and that it will be delivered using the right approach.

  • Service Alerts – Digital Displays
    Service Alerts – Digital Displays TriMet has digital displays at most MAX Light Rail stations to provide real-time arrival information as well as service disruption/delay messaging. Some of the displays are flat screens as shown to the right. Others are reader boards. Due to space, the messages need to be as condensed as possible. While we regularly post the same alert at stations along a line, during the Rose Quarter MAX Improvements we provided more specific alerts by geographical locations and even individual stations. This was because the service plan, while best for the majority of riders, was complex and posed communications challenges. MAX Blue Line only displays MAX Blue Line disrupted and frequency reduced.

  • Streetcar System Concept Plan a Framework for Future Corridor Planning and Alternatives Analysis
    PORTLAND STREETCAR SYSTEM CONCEPT PLAN A Framework for Future Corridor Planning and Alternatives Analysis Adopted September 9, 2009 by Portland City Council This study is partially funded by the US Department of Transportation, Federal Transit Administration How this document will be used This document will be used to identify and select corridors for future Alternatives Analysis and planning studies as funding becomes available. No funding plan or schedule has been identified for any of the potential streetcar projects. Transit corridors citywide were assessed to determine which corridors have the best potential for future streetcar investment. Corridors that are shown in this document represent the best opportunities for streetcar infrastructure. Detailed corridor by corridor analysis, study and discussions with corridor neighborhoods are necessary to determine if a streetcar investment is warranted. No individual corridor can move forward without a detailed analysis and planning study to address the purpose and need of a streetcar project and to comprehensively evaluate project impacts. The Portland Bureau of Transportation fully complies with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the ADA Title II, and related statutes and regulations in all programs and activities.
