SUMMARY:2021 ITE Manitoba AGM
DESCRIPTION:ITE Manitoba will be hosting the 2021 Annual Business Meeting on Tuesday December 14th\, at 1:30 pm. This meeting will include a review of the 2021 year\, a financial report and 2022 budget presentation\, and upcoming events for 2022. \nAt the beginning of the webinar\, participants will be split into breakout groups for approximately 10 minutes of networking. \nFollowing the Annual Business Meeting\, Shawn Doyle of Dillon Consulting will be presenting. Shawn has over 30 years of experience in transportation and traffic engineering and planning. He has worked extensively for clients in central\, western and eastern Canada and in the Caribbean and Middle East. Shawn has managed a broad spectrum of technical assignments\, ranging from long-range transportation policy\, to corridor and network planning projects\, traffic and parking planning assignments and detailed traffic operations assessment studies. He enjoys helping communities to create practical\, sustainable transportation systems that will benefit them for years to come. \nShawn’s presentation will be on Multi-Modal Level of Service. Transportation performance measures for vehicles are well-established and understood\, but methods for assessing performance for people walking\, cycling\, and taking transit are less well-developed. In this presentation Shawn will introduce Dillon’s Multi-Modal Level of Service (MMLOS) framework\, which is an integrated system for understanding how well a street or road serves all modes of travel\, and how changes to the street or road may impact performance for each mode.\n\nJoin Virtual Event:\nhttps://meet.google.com/moc-qtnk-dau\n
