The objective of the study involved the recommendation of short-, medium-, and long-term improvement options to mitigate any identified existing or future safety or operations deficiencies on the corridor. The key study activities therefore involved an assessment of the existing and future conditions and associated deficiencies through engagement with First Nations and stakeholder municipalities, data analysis, and site visits, the generation of potential improvement options, and finally recommendations for implementation based on evaluation of the potential options. E1 Study Area and Context Highway 101, also known as the Sunshine Coast Highway, connects the Langdale Ferry Terminal to the Earl’s Cove Ferry Terminal and is the only link between the communities on the Sunshine Coast, including the municipalities of Gibsons and Sechelt. The highway is isolated from the provincial highway network by mountains and bodies of water, therefore requiring access to the highway via one of the ferry routes located at each end of the highway corridor. The study area focuses on the Highway 101 corridor between the Langdale Ferry Terminal and the southern end of Redrooffs Road. In addition to the highway corridor itself, the study area involved a wider area when considering the extent of some potential improvements. Both highway safety and operations concerns have been documented in previous traffic and planning studies in the area, and local stakeholders have raised concerns about the existing conditions along the highway route. Many of the issues previously raised with Highway 101 relate to its multi-functional role on the Sunshine Coast. At a regional level, the highway acts as the most direct route between the Langdale Ferry Terminal and destinations on the Sunshine Coast, with many road users expecting higher-speed travel with minimal delays. However, in several segments, the highway also acts as the main street for the local community, with residents prioritizing safety for vulnerable road users and access to destinations. E2 Study Methodology The study methodology followed a series of technical analysis steps combined with stakeholder and Indigenous Group engagement. In each phase of the project, the technical work was guided by feedback received during the engagement process, and the technical work was in turn shared with local Indigenous groups, namely shíshálh Nation and Squamish Nation as well as with the key stakeholders: the Town of Gibsons, the District of Sechelt, and the Sunshine Coast Regional District. The study began with a review of the numerous planning studies that have been conducted for various segments of Highway 101 over the past 25 years, the development of the highway role and function definition, and meetings with local Indigenous Groups and municipalities to understand local priorities and concerns with the corridor. Informed by the engagement outcomes and guided by technical analysis, the problem definition was established to understand the existing and forecasted future conditions along the study including the identification of any deficiencies primarily related to safety and traffic operations. The problem definition analysis was shared with the local municipalities for feedback and to inform the generation of corridor improvements. Highway 101 - Gibsons to Sechelt Corridor Study E-1 Corridor improvement options, developed specifically to mitigate the identified existing and future deficiencies, included new passing lanes, intersection improvements, and potential bypasses of short segments of the existing highway. All of the improvement options under consideration were evaluated with respect to their relative benefits and costs as well as identifying any potential impacts. Prior to finalizing the evaluation of the improvement options, the substantive corridor improvement options were reviewed with the affected Indigenous Groups. Recommendations for possible future implementation were based on the feedback received from the engagement activities as well as the results of the technical analysis. Information sessions with the aforementioned stakeholders were held to present the study in its entirety. E3 Problem Definition KEY TRAFFIC PATTERNS The highway corridor was analyzed to gain an understanding of the current and future conditions In order to understand the flow of traffic across the study corridor, especially for the investigation of whether a and to also identify any underlying issues affecting bypass route is warranted, origin-destination (O-D) trip corridor capacity, operations, and safety. Key findings data was analyzed based on two separate data sources: of the assessment suggest that some segments of the 2016 census journey to work data, and StreetLight data highway corridor currently have above-average sourced from smartphones and navigation devices. Both collision rates, while the highway and intersections are data sources show similar travel

  • Lillooet Between Sechelt and Shuswap Jan P. Van Eijk First
    Lillooet between Sechelt and Shuswap Jan P. van Eijk First Nations University of Canada Although most details of the grammatical and lexical structure of Lillooet put this language firmly within the Interior branch of the Salish language family, Lillooet also shares some features with the Coast or Central branch. In this paper we describe some of the similarities between Lillooet and one of its closest Interior relatives, viz., Shuswap, and we also note some similarities be­ tween Lillooet and Sechelt, one of Lillooet' s western neighbours but belonging to the Coast branch. Particular attention is paid to some obvious loans between Lillooet and Sechelt. 1 Introduction Lillooet belongs with Shuswap to the Interior branch of the Salish language family, while Sechelt belongs to the Coast or Central branch. In what follows we describe the similarities and differences between Lillooet and both Shuswap and Sechelt, under the following headings: Phonology (section 2), Morphology (3), Lexicon (4), and Lillooet-Sechelt borrowings (5). Conclusions are given in 6. I omit a comparison between the syntactic patterns of these three languages, since my information on Sechelt syntax is limited to a brief text (Timmers 1974), and Beaumont 1985 is currently unavailable to me. Although borrowings between Lillooet and Shuswap have obviously taken place, many of these will be impossible to trace due to the close over-all resemblance between these two languages. Shuswap data are mainly drawn from the western dialects, as described in Kuipers 1974 and 1975. (For a description of the eastern dialects I refer to Kuipers 1989.) Lillooet data are from Van Eijk 1997, while Sechelt data are from Timmers 1973, 1974, 1977.

Over that same period, consumer prices in BC rose by just 15%, yet the reported cost of providing our ferry service rose from $5.5m in 2003/04 to $10.9m in 2013/14. Over the same period, Provincial support for our ferry route has increased by just 7.5% - with most of that increase occurring over the past two years through short-term government intervention.

  • Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast Region Air Transportation Outlook I
    Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast Region Air Transportation Outlook Final Report strategic transportation & tourism solutions Prepared by InterVISTAS Consulting Inc. June 17, 2008 June 17, 2008 Confidential Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast Region Air Transportation Outlook i Executive Summary InterVISTAS Consulting Inc. was retained by the Vancouver Island Economic Developers Association (VIEDA) to develop a Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast Region Air Transportation Outlook. Most airports in Canada and all but one of the airports in the study area are managed by independent authorities or by municipal councils of the communities they serve. These airports are free to participate in any market sector in which they see opportunity: as defined and sanctioned by their Board’s mission, vision and strategic plan for their community’s airport. Key factors that govern and shape decisions around market participation are: ■ Market opportunities in terms of underserved regions, low levels of service and the airport’s competitive positioning in that sector based on market analysis ■ The operational capability of the airport to participate in target markets ■ A business case that supports the investment to enter target markets The InterVISTAS’ approach and methodology for this study was shaped by these considerations. The report assesses levels of service by defined regions and market sectors, identifies current levels of service, assesses airports’ capabilities in the region and recommends development subject to detailed business case analysis. Section 2 of the report presents an overview of the socio-economic and demographic characteristics of the seven major Regional Districts contained in the study area. The data shows significant forecast population growth for the Central Island Regional Districts of Nanaimo, Comox/Strathacona and the Cowichan Valley as well as the Sunshine Coast Regional District (Gibsons/Sechelt).

The primary purpose of this study was to provide a scientific basis for establishing guidelines on the use and placement of creosote treated wood in sensitive marine aquatic habitats under ‘worst case’ conditions. The study focused on the chemical and biological effects from newly installed six- piling dolphins constructed with used pilings treated by conventional methods and pilings freshly treated with techniques designed to produce a cleaner and more environmentally sensitive product by placing them in a natural undisturbed location, free from outside sources of contamination.
