DESCRIPTION:Join us at Evergreen Cultural Centre (located beside Lafarge Lake-Douglas Station) for a brief presentation at 3 pm\, followed by a walking tour of Guildford Way to learn more about the evolution of this corridor and its unique design features\, including active transportation and road safety improvements\, operations\, accessibility\, and lessons learned throughout the project! \nDATE:  Wednesday\, September 17\, 2025 \nTIME:   3:00pm – 6:00 pm (Tour & Networking) \nAbout Guildford Way Transportation Improvements Project \nThe Guildford Way Transportation Improvements Project is a multi-phase project to make walking\, biking\, and rolling more enjoyable\, improve road safety along a key regional connection in Metro Vancouver’s Tri-Cities area\, and help increase transportation choices. Guildford Way is a key corridor within the City of Coquitlam’s shared micromobility operation zone\, supporting trips by shared e-bike/e-scooter\, and connects to Lafarge Lake-Douglas SkyTrain Station and many other key destinations in Coquitlam. \nThe first phase was completed in 2023 and upgraded painted bike lanes to 1.5km of protected micromobility infrastructure from the Port Moody border to Johnson Street using “quick-build” concrete curbs to reduce costs and construction times. This first phase won the Infrastructure Project of Year award from HUB Cycling. The second phase between Johnson Street and Pinetree Way was completed earlier this year and added 0.7km of raised micromobility lanes\, wider sidewalks\, enhanced bus stops\, accessibility features\, improved street lighting\, and the first fully protected intersections in Metro Vancouver’s Tri-Cities. \nPresenters \nKey staff from the City’s Transportation Division\, who will be on this tour\, include: \n\nDoug McLeod (Director Transportation)\nThomas Thivener (Manager Transportation Planning)\nTyler Kuny (Manager Transportation Infrastructure)\nBernard Tung (Team Lead\, Traffic Systems)\nAnagha Krishnan (Team Lead\, Road Safety & Operations)\n\nNetworking \nFollowing the tour\, we will return to the Evergreen Cultural Centre for networking and appetizers. It is an excellent opportunity to socialize\, share insights\, and discuss the highlights of the tour. \nThere are a limited number of 25 spots for the tour\, so buy yours early! Registration ends on September 16 at 11:30pm.

SUMMARY:[TRAINING] Transportation & Affordability: Planning Complete Networks to Reduce Auto-Dependence - September 2025
DESCRIPTION:Date:  Thursday\, September 18\, 2025 \nTime:  12:00 – 4:00 pm ET / 9:00 am – 1:00 pm PT \nLocation: Virtual. The virtual meeting details will be emailed to registered attendees the day before or on the morning of the training.  \nRegistration deadline: September 17\, 2025 at 12 noon ET \nThis session will qualify for PDH credits for attendees. \nWorkshop Description\nA community’s design plays a crucial role in shaping residents’ living costs\, particularly transportation expenses. One effective way to ease this financial burden is by creating “car-lite” communities where life without car ownership is convenient\, pleasant\, and sustainable. \nHowever\, designing or retrofitting such communities requires a collaborative\, thoughtful approach from land use planners\, transportation planners\, and engineers. The good news? Successful examples from around the world provide clear principles to guide the way. \nThe Half-Day Course is Divided into Four Modules: \n\nWhat Makes a Community Car-Lite and Why Does it Matter? The training will start by thoughtfully defining what it means for a community to be “car-lite”; that is\, for a resident of an area to have sufficient access to other modes of travel\, and car ownership is not required for convenient travel. We will link transportation affordability with overall affordability and discuss the opportunities for transport planners to make life more affordable for Canadians.\nExamining Car-Lite Communities in Canada and Elsewhere. We will discuss policy trends across Canada and review several master-planned communities. We’ll discuss the ambitions for each\, review the quality of the built infrastructure and mobility services provided\, and draw conclusions on the strengths and weaknesses of each development. Exercise #1: Participants will then be asked to complete their own network audit of an existing mixed-use community.\nDesigning Complete Networks. This part of the training explores how to design mobility networks for new or intensifying communities. We will discuss different types of urban traffic environments that prioritize different modes of traffic and how to lay these out at the network level using Safe Systems principles. Exercise #2: Participants will gain hands-on experience and design a transportation network for themselves in the breakout exercise.\nUnderstanding the Barriers to Implementation. The final block will discuss practical implications and challenges that an engineer or planner may encounter in trying to implement some of the concepts presented in the course. We will explore the shortcomings of the traditional process of laying out a street network solely based on auto-oriented functions (arterial\, collector\, local) as well as the alternatives (prioritizing corridors based on mode)\, and discuss how land use designations fit in.\n\nOverall\, the course will leave participants with a stronger understanding of the building blocks for car-lite communities and actionable takeaways for their work in producing transportation master plans\, secondary plans\, plans of subdivision\, and transportation impact assessments. \nLearning Outcomes\nAs a result of attending the training\, practitioners will be able to: \n\nDescribe the role of transportation practitioners in addressing Canada’s housing crisis\nExplain the concepts of being car-dependent\, car-free\, and car-less and its impacts on access to opportunity and mobility poverty\nUnderstand examples of various communities and neighbourhoods across Canada that have been designed to support car-lite living\nEvaluate a proposed or existing community layout for its likelihood of supporting multimodal travel by looking at its street design\, land uses\, and network structure\nDesign a multimodal street network for a new or retrofitted urban neighbourhood\n\nTarget Audience\nTransportation Planners\, Land Use Planners and Transportation Engineers who are interested designing more sustainable\, affordable and inclusive communities. \nTrainer bios\nMatt Pinder\, P.Eng.\, M.Eng.Lead Trainer \nMatt has a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in civil engineering and nine years of experience in transportation planning and engineering. Matt is an emerging expert in the planning and design of streets\, intersections\, and communities that address the needs of all road users.

SUMMARY:[ITE Canada & CARSP Joint Webinar] Island Platform Bus Stops - Emerging Trends\, Technologies & Lessons Learned
DESCRIPTION:Registration closes on Wednesday\, September 24. 1.5 Professional Development Hours/Credits (PDH) will be available for this webinar. \nIn 2024\, TransLink\, in partnership with the B.C. Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MoTT)\, developed the Design Guide for Bus Stops Adjacent to Cycling Infrastructure (download here\, PDF 14.8 MB) to provide province-wide design guidance for “island platform bus stops” or “floating bus stops” in British Columbia.  The award-winning Design Guide provides a comprehensive set of planning and engineering guidelines offering solutions for the planning\, design\, operation\, and maintenance of bus stops adjacent to protected cycling infrastructure in a range of contexts and applications throughout British Columbia\, along with guidance for education and engagement.  However\, the Design Guide was not able to address all of the issues identified by people with disabilities\, notably\, the ability to detect a person cycling approach and the ability to have confidence that a person cycling has stopped. \nSince the Design Guide was published in 2024\, the design of island platform bus stops has continued to evolve across Canada and internationally as practitioners advance their understanding of accessibility needs within a North American context\, with treatments such as on-board announcements\, Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs)\, bicycle signals\, tactile wayfinding\, and other technologies being explored in various jurisdictions.  This virtual session will provide an update on emerging trends and technologies for island platform bus stops along with lessons learned from Canada\, the United States\, and internationally. \nThe webinar will be led by Brian Patterson (Urban Systems) and Dylan Passmore (Street Matters) along with staff from the City of Montreal\, City of New Westminster\, District of Saanich\, and TransLink. Due to popular demand after the initial joint ITE Canada/CARSP webinar on this topic in 2024\, this follow-up webinar is an opportunity to hear from more speakers and delve into newer developments on the topic. \nRegistration for this webinar is FREE for current ITE and CARSP members.

SUMMARY:[TRAINING • In-Person] Transportation Equity: Developing Solutions for Social Inclusion
DESCRIPTION:Date: Thursday\, October 23\, 2025 \nTime: 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM \nLocation: BA Group’s Head Office at 95 St. Clair Avenue West\, 10th Floor\, Suite 1000\, Toronto\, ON \nThis session will qualify for PDH credits for attendees. This workshop is also being offered virtually on November 4.\n \nWorkshop Description\nTransportation systems shape access to opportunities\, yet mobility inequalities persist. Social exclusion in mobility is not a new issue\, but systematic inclusion principles and processes remain limited\, and the knowledge in this area is yet to be fully developed. This training course seeks to help transportation professionals understand how changes to transportation systems can be more socially inclusive and address issues of inequality. \nSupported by internal research and developed by a diverse team of experts\, this workshop combines strong theoretical foundations with practical applications to offer a comprehensive approach to transportation equity. Participants will learn how transportation equity principles\, tools\, and solutions translate into real action and change the course of transportation infrastructure programs and delivery.  The goal is to equip transportation practitioners with the tools to create more inclusive\, resilient\, and just mobility systems. \nParticipants will gain practical strategies and real-world insights to apply transportation equity principles in their daily work. Through case studies and expert guidance\, they will learn how to turn equity concepts into actionable solutions that shape inclusive policies\, programs\, and infrastructure. This course will provide alternative perspectives to align transportation policies\, programs and implementation with the Canadian National Human Rights Charter\, treating equity as a fundamental right\, not just as an additional consideration. Training content highlights systemic exclusion\, its impact on marginalized communities\, and strategies to mitigate unintended consequences and address equity gaps. By integrating well-established and emerging transportation equity concepts into practical applications\, the course equips participants with the knowledge to embed equity into everyday transportation practices and decisions.  \nThe half-day course is divided into several sections: \n\nBasics of Transportation Equity: The workshop will start with fundamentals of transportation equity\, basic principles\, history\, theoretical foundations such as framework and types of transportation equity\, philosophical framework\, systematic causes of inequality\, spatial justice theories and other fundamentals.

SUMMARY:[TRAINING] Transportation Equity: Developing Solutions for Social Inclusion - Nov 2025
DESCRIPTION:Date: Tuesday\, November 4\, 2025 \nTime: 11 am to 4 pm (Eastern Time) / 8 am to 1 pm (Pacific Time) \nLocation: Virtual workshop. Meeting link will be provided in registration confirmation email. \nThis session will qualify for PDH credits for attendees.\n \nWorkshop Description\nTransportation systems shape access to opportunities\, yet mobility inequalities persist. Social exclusion in mobility is not a new issue\, but systematic inclusion principles and processes remain limited\, and the knowledge in this area is yet to be fully developed. This training course seeks to help transportation professionals understand how changes to transportation systems can be more socially inclusive and address issues of inequality. \nSupported by internal research and developed by a diverse team of experts\, this workshop combines strong theoretical foundations with practical applications to offer a comprehensive approach to transportation equity. Participants will learn how transportation equity principles\, tools\, and solutions translate into real action and change the course of transportation infrastructure programs and delivery.  The goal is to equip transportation practitioners with the tools to create more inclusive\, resilient\, and just mobility systems. \nParticipants will gain practical strategies and real-world insights to apply transportation equity principles in their daily work. Through case studies and expert guidance\, they will learn how to turn equity concepts into actionable solutions that shape inclusive policies\, programs\, and infrastructure. This course will provide alternative perspectives to align transportation policies\, programs and implementation with the Canadian National Human Rights Charter\, treating equity as a fundamental right\, not just as an additional consideration. Training content highlights systemic exclusion\, its impact on marginalized communities\, and strategies to mitigate unintended consequences and address equity gaps. By integrating well-established and emerging transportation equity concepts into practical applications\, the course equips participants with the knowledge to embed equity into everyday transportation practices and decisions.  \nThe half-day course is divided into several sections: \n\nBasics of Transportation Equity: The workshop will start with fundamentals of transportation equity\, basic principles\, history\, theoretical foundations such as framework and types of transportation equity\, philosophical framework\, systematic causes of inequality\, spatial justice theories and other fundamentals.
