Micha Gutmanis leads CIMA+’s Transportation Decarbonization Advisory Practice with a focus on turning ambitious net-zero commitments into structured\, executable pathways grounded in technical and financial reality. \nShe advises fleet operators\, municipalities\, transit agencies\, and institutional clients across Canada on the transition to zero-emission vehicles\, guiding decisions that balance long-term strategy with near-term operational demands. Her work spans the full lifecycle of decarbonization initiatives\, from defining fleet transition pathways and assessing infrastructure and grid readiness to shaping investment strategies and supporting implementation. \nDrawing on experience across public\, private\, and non-profit sectors\, Micha has led large-scale transit electrification programs\, municipal fleet strategies\, and complex feasibility assessments for diverse fleet applications. Her approach integrates policy\, infrastructure planning\, financial modelling\, and stakeholder alignment—ensuring that decarbonization strategies are not only technically sound\, but operationally viable. \nThrough her involvement in national electric mobility initiatives\, she contributes to advancing practical solutions that reflect the realities facing Canadian public and private fleets\, helping organizations move from ambition to execution with confidence.

SUMMARY:ITE Greater Vancouver Section - Breakfast Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Flowing Equity\, Diversity\, and Inclusion into the Networks of Transportation Planning and Engineering \nThe ITE Greater Vancouver Section is pleased to have Clark Lim\, P.Eng.\, M.A.Sc.\, FITE\, to present at our breakfast seminar on May 31\, 2023. This event will be hosted in Richmond at the Kwantlen Polytechnic University\, and registration will include a hot breakfast for attendees. \nThe issue of equity\, diversity\, and inclusion (EDI) has gained significant traction since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.  Media incidents highlighting inequality and injustice\, both in the present and past\, have exposed systemic biases ingrained in our society and social norms.  Consequently\, this has prompted calls to action for change from elected officials to industry organizations and corporate giants.  As professionals\, it is incumbent upon us to respond to these calls.  But how do these highly political\, emotionally charged\, and occasionally violent issues pertain to our meek transportation industry?  How can we bridge the perceived gap between EDI and our daily work and deliverables?  By viewing these issues in a more holistic mirror\, we may find the answers to these questions are closer than they appear. \nClark has three decades of experience in public\, private\, and academic sectors\, specializing in analytical methods and information systems for transportation planning and engineering applications.  After completing his graduate research at UBC in driver distraction and attention modelling in the early 90’s\, he ended up at Metro Vancouver where he became involved in the establishment of TransLink and the Major Road Network (MRN).  Roles at TransLink included Project Manager of the Evergreen Rapid Transit Line planning and consultation process (2004-2006)\, and Program Manager for the Research and Technical Services group.  Currently at Acuere Consulting\, he leads the development of data-fueled cloud-based applications such as congestion measurement systems\, GHG inventory applications\, and EDI tools that help clients measure and improve their corporate sustainability and diversity quotient.  Annually\, Clark lectures on transportation engineering and planning at UBC as an Adjunct Professor\, and as a Visiting Professor at the University of Piura\, Peru.  At UBC\, he led the development of a triple-bottom-line methodology to measure the performance of the 2010 Olympic Games and future Olympic Games Host Cities\, so they can be positive champions for sustainability and social equity. \nWhen: May 31\, 2023\, 7:30 am – 9:00 am\nWhere: Kwantlen Polytechnic University – Richmond Campus – Room Main – 1380 (8771 Lansdowne Rd\, Richmond\, BC) \nRegistrations are permitted up to the day of the event\, however\, food is not guaranteed for those registering after May 24\, 2023. \nRegistration Fees: \nMembers –                 $20\nNon-members –        $25\nStudents –                  $10

SUMMARY:An introduction to Expert Witness Work for Traffic Engineers in BC - ITE Greater Vancouver Breakfast Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Historically\, most traffic engineers would never see the inside of a courtroom regarding a traffic engineering matter during the course of their career.  However\, it is absolutely critical for professional engineers to fully understand their role as the “Engineer of Record” and design professional from a legal point of view as traffic engineers have been getting more involved in expert witness testimony in BC in the last 5 years.  An expert witness\, particularly in common law countries such as the United Kingdom\, Australia\, Canada and the United States\, is a person whose opinion by virtue of education\, training\, certification\, skills or experience\, is accepted by the judge as an expert.  This presentation will provide attendees with an introduction to Common Law and expert witness definitions\, an overview of the BC Supreme Court and the BC Human Rights Tribunal process\, the typical timeline for expert witness work\, presentation of up to 6 case studies and some closing comments and advice to attendees. \nJan Voss \nJan Voss brings his expertise in traffic engineering\, parking operations\, transportation surveys and transport planning as both founder and current president of Creative Transportation Solutions Ltd. (CTS).  He is a registered Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) and Professional Traffic Operations Engineer (PTOE) in British Columbia\, Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories / Nunavut\, and has over 33 years of experience in the field of traffic engineering and operations.  Jan is a certified Expert Witness by both the Supreme Court of BC and the BC Human Rights Tribunal\, and has been providing expert witness testimony and advice for the past 20 years. \nGary Vlieg \nGary is the Vice President for CTS and is responsible for overseeing CTS’s work in the BC Interior\, providing expert witness advice to CTS’s clients\, leading technical assignments\, presenting findings to municipal councils\, mentoring staff and ensuring a high standard of quality on CTS projects.  Gary has over 34 years of experience in transportation planning\, traffic engineering and project management throughout Western Canada and New Zealand.  He is a registered Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) in British Columbia\, Alberta\, and Yukon Territory. \nBreakfast Meeting Details \nThis session will include a light breakfast at the Executive Suites Hotel & Conference Centre in Burnaby. \n7:30 am – 8:00 am Registration & Breakfast \n8:00 am – 9:00 am Presentation \n
