SUMMARY:ITE Interior BC/PIBC - 2025 April Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for our first event of the year with a technical webinar presented by Sophie Renard\, P.Eng.\, Transportation Analyst at Bunt & Associates Engineering Ltd.! \n“Prioritizing Public Cycling Amenities: An Automated GIS Tool”\nWebinar Description:\nAs cities strive to create complete communities\, equitable and effective access to supportive cycling amenities is vital for promoting sustainable transportation and enhancing urban mobility. Increasing resources are being allocated to provide public bicycle parking facilities; however\, while bicycle end-of-trip (EOT) facilities have become more common in private developments\, there is still a gap in best practice research for implementing EOT facilities in the public realm. \nBunt\, together with the City of Nanaimo\, developed a Bicycle End-of-Trip Facility Priority Index tool to identify\, and prioritize locations for public bike parking and EOT facilities. The Priority Index is a GIS-based tool that utilizes an automated spatial analysis process to score potential bike parking sites across the City. The tool considers a variety of factors relating to accessibility\, land use\, equity\, and social well-being. Users can adjust the weighting of these criteria to reflect local priorities\, resulting in a tailored approach that meets the specific needs of the community. Bunt will present an overview of the Priority Index tool\, including a highlight of the challenges faced and lessons learns. \nBunt aims to inspire cities to adopt similar tools that support active transportation. Ultimately\, the Priority Index serves as a vital resource in creating healthier\, more connected\, and equitable communities that promote cycling as a sustainable mode of transport. \n \nPresenter – Sophie Renard:\n‘Sophie is a transportation engineer at Bunt & Associates\, bringing several years of experience in transportation planning and engineering. She has collaborated with communities of all sizes across British Columbia and Western Canada to activate pedestrian\, cycling\, and rolling facilities for people of all ages and abilities. Her work encompasses a wide range of projects that enhance urban mobility\, developing her diverse technical skillset and allowing her to stay at the forefront of best practices in active transportation planning and engineering. By supporting sustainable modes and enhancing urban mobility\, Sophie strives to create complete\, connected\, and vibrant communities where everyone can thrive.’ \nThe webinar will be held over Microsoft Teams on April 30\, 2025 at 12:00 p.m. Please RSVP by April 29 to receive the webinar link to attend.\n\nJoin Virtual Event:\nhttps://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_MGJmMThiOWYtN2YxMi00OTJjLWE2Y2MtMzAxY2VmY2NmNmNk%40thread.v2/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%224637223a-1556-44a8-8243-cf9ef66f6f62%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%22ac1aa780-eff7-45e4-b4d0-c652a45283b6%22%7d\n
