DESCRIPTION:Advancing Your Career Through Certification\nHow can you differentiate yourself in today’s competitive job market? One avenue is demonstrating advanced knowledge and expertise as well as a high level of dedication through the achievement of certification. \nThis webinar will present an overview about the Professional Traffic Operations Engineer (PTOE) and Professional Transportation Planner (PTP); Road Safety Professional\, Level 1 (RSP1); and Road Safety Professional Level 2 (RSP2) – certifications offered by the Transportation Professional Certification Board (www.tcb.org). In this webinar\, we will provide in-depth information about the RSP certification. \nThe RSP certification establishes a minimum level of knowledge based on the current state of practice\, encourages professional development and growth by applying new concepts\, and creates an environment for universities to expand their curriculum to produce graduates that are proficient in the field of safety. Certified road safety professionals will be recognized for their knowledge\, experience\, and expertise in road safety. \nWith increasing emphasis being placed on consideration of safety in all aspects of transportation management\, the need to recognize road safety as a distinct discipline becomes evident. In 2016\, the Transportation Professional Certification Board (TPCB) began efforts to develop a Road Safety Professional Certification (RSP). This effort is supported by a broad cross-section of transportation and safety organizations from the United States and Canada and provides two certification levels. This webinar will describe the areas that are covered under RSP Level 1 and RSP Level 2-Infrastructure and Behaviour and how they relate to consideration of safety within an individual’s job. This webinar will also provide the information needed to register and prepare for the certification exams. \nParticipants will also hear about the preparatory resources available through ITE as well as general information about the certification process. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nLearn how certification can benefit your career development and make you more attractive to prospective employers\nThe attendees will become familiar with the certifications offered by Transportation Professional Certification Board (TPCB)\nBecome familiar with the two domain areas of the safety disciplines (infrastructure and behaviour) that form the foundation for the RSP certifications.\nLearn about what is needed to apply for and to take the exam/s for potential certification/s at Level 1 and Level 2\nUnderstand general policies and procedures about the certification process\nLearn about available preparatory resources\n\nPresenter Bio\nGeni Bahar\, P.Eng.\, P.E.\, RSP | NAVIGATS Inc. \nMs. Geni Bahar\, P.Eng\, P.E. (civil)\, RSP2I\, FITE has more than forty years of experience in traffic and road safety engineering. She currently serves as the president of NAVIGATS Inc.

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:Protected Intersection Design
DESCRIPTION:Note that this session will qualify for PDH credit for attendees.\n \nThis is an in-person session to be held in Winnipeg\, MB over two days\, Wednesday\, June 7th from 1:45 PM to 5:15 PM and Thursday from 8:30AM to Noon\, June 8th.\n \nSession is being held over two days immediately following the ITE Canada/CARSP Conference in Winnipeg. For more information about the conference and hotel bookings\, visit the conference website.\n \nProtected Intersection Design\nProtected intersection design is an approach that intends to improve safety and comfort for all ages and abilities of people cycling and walking through intersections. The planning\, design\, and implementation of protected intersections has many aspects that require a thoughtful design approach\, including addressing universal design and accessibility\, complexity of traffic signals\, and winter maintenance. \nThis training will expose transportation professionals to the principles of protected intersection design. The training will draw on forward-thinking design guidance and real-world case studies from around North America and internationally to help participants build an understanding of different approaches to key design issues and trade-offs. Participants will learn to think creatively and outside-the-box in how they tackle practical design issues that municipalities encounter every day. \nThrough this training\, participants will: \n\nBecome familiar and comfortable with protected intersection design principles and how they change with the local context;\nProvide an awareness of guidance available regionally\, nationally\, and internationally to supplement and advance design;\nUse interactive group design exercises to allow participants to gain experience using protected intersection design principles to achieve a better active transportation network\n\nThe training sessions will be structured to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of protected intersection design. The sessions will be organized as follows: \n\nBrief overview of protected intersections\, including:\n\nIssues for people walking and cycling in typical intersection design\nWhy protected intersections are important and address typical issues for people walking and cycling\nPrinciples of protected intersection design\n\n\nBreakout session #1:\n\nParticipants will review an existing [unprotected] intersection that will be provided and identify potential conflict points and other issues for people walking and cycling\nDifferent contexts of intersections (urban\, suburban\, irregular) will be used in the breakout sessions\n\n\nCase studies to illustrate specific design issues\, including:\n\nTransit stop integration o Constrained contexts\nComplex junctions of bikeways and trails\nHigh-volume turning movements\nLarge vehicle turning movements\nMaterials and elevations\nPaths of travel for people walking and cycling\n\n\nBreakout session #2:\n\nEach breakout room will have a different design issue\nParticipants will use the information provided in the training to provide design ideas to improve their intersection and then present to the group\n\n\nBuilding on the break-out session\, Alta will discuss the different design issues and how each design response can come together into a cohesive design that addresses more than one design issue\nDiscussion about monitoring of the effectiveness of innovative approaches and how design might evolve\n\nKate Whitfield\, P.Eng\, MCIP\, RPP is a Principal with Alta Planning + Design\, Canada. She leads the Canadian operation from the headquarters in Ottawa. As a Professional Engineer and Professional Planner\, Kate brings a unique perspective to technical training courses. Kate’s work with protected intersection design extends from the creation of guidance documents to the development of functional and detailed design and through to implementation and construction. Kate has worked on multi-modal transportation and city building projects from coast to coast to coast in Canada. \nNataliya Pekar is an Associate and Senior Civil Engineer with Alta Planning + Design Canada. She works on active transportation projects across the country and spends her days applying a Complete Street lens to reimagining our streets. Nataliya gets into the details of making intersections safe and comfortable for pedestrians and people on bikes.

SUMMARY:ITE Southern Alberta Section: June Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:How Community Values Influence Transit Network Design – Coverage vs. Ridership\nTransit agencies are often tasked with two goals: attracting customers (ridership) and ensuring that service available to as many people as possible regardless if they will use it (coverage). Both are important but result in contradictory pressures for network design\, particularly in how an agency’s limited resources must be allocated across an urban area. \nThis creates an inherent trade-off\, where communities consider the relative importance of these two missions against broader societal goals. This can be answered\, in part\, by asking “who is transit for?” \nIn this talk\, Filip Majcherkiewicz (Team Lead of Service Planning\, Calgary Transit) will discuss how the degree to which coverage or ridership is prioritized can influence network design and overall service quality outcomes. \nBiography\n \n \nFilip Majcherkiewicz is a Registered Professional Planner specializing in transit planning. He earned a Master of Planning degree at the University of Waterloo where his research focused on the land use impacts of Calgary’s LRT system. He joined Calgary Transit’s Service Planning division in 2014\, a team he now leads. Filip has led numerous transit service plans\, notably the launch of the MAX Bus Rapid Transit lines in 2018-19. Born and raised in Calgary\, his interests seek to understand the relationship between urban development patterns and travel behaviour\, and how to build multi-modal cities with equitable mobility networks. Outside of work Filip is still working to uncover the mysteries of truly amazing sourdough bread. You can usually find him catching a bus near you.

This month we will be featuring THREE presentations\, all from the University of Calgary: \nPresentation #1: Use of Crowd Source Data in Transport Planning and Traffic Management_ Intro to MTRADA\nTravel time estimation is an essential element in transport planning and traffic management. The intervention of intelligent transportation systems\, sensors systems and remote sensing methodologies has enabled to estimate travel times in high accuracy. Most of the travel time estimation models in the literature are inductive in nature\, which require vehicle travel time observations for calibration. Obtaining vehicle travel time data is both a time consuming and costly process for a single link and it is impractical to collect this information for all the links across the road network. Hence\, there is a need for travel time estimation models that are low in cost and more robust. Use of crowdsourced data and vehicle tracking techniques has further enhanced the estimation algorithms with accuracy and efficiency where use of google travel time data extracted from Google Distance Matrix API is a novel approach to gather representative information about real-time traffic conditions. \nM-TRADA (https://uom.lk/civil/transportation/software/mtrada) is a Cloud Based data mining platform to collect travel time data using Google map APIs. It was developed in year 2017 by Transportation Engineering Division\, Department of Civil Engineering\, University of Moratuwa. M-TRADA has now been developed in to a fully functional\, verified cloud-based platform. \nThe workshop will cover the methodology to collect travel time data with Google Distance Matrix API using MTRADA nd use of the method in transport planning and traffic management applications. \nBiography\nDimantha De Silva is a Principal Consultant at CPCS. He is also a sessional lecturer at the University of Calgary. Prior to that he was a Senior Lecturer at Department of Civil Engineering at University of Moratuwa. He received his M.Sc. in Transportation Engineering and B.Sc. in Civil Engineering from the University of Moratuwa\, Sri Lanka and completed his PhD in Transportation Engineering from University of Calgary\, Canada. His research interests includes integrated land use transport demand modelling\, Big Data Analytics. \nPresentation #2: Designing Integrated Public Mobility in and Around University of Calgary\n(Description coming soon!) \nBiographies\nJoel Lethaby recently graduated from the University of Calgary with a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering and a Transportation Engineering minor. Joel now works for Associated Engineering as a Transportation Engineer-in-Training. Previously\, he completed a 16 month internship with Urban Systems where he was initially exposed to “complete street” style projects working on the Montgomery Main Streets Bowness Road project. This project sparked his passion for safe\, vibrant\, multi-modal streets\, and Joel hopes to work on more projects like this throughout his career. \nEremiahs Fikre is a recent Civil Engineering graduate. He is passionate about all things transportation engineering\, specifically traffic safety. During his undergraduate degree\, he completed an internship at the City of Edmonton with the Safe Mobility Team in which he helped with various initiatives for the Edmonton’s goal of Vision Zero by 2030. He hopes to continue making an impact in the transportation sector. \nKarim Kandil is a Transportation Engineer-in-Training with a strong background in software and technical expertise. Over the past two years at ISL\, Karim has played a role in the planning\, design\, and construction phases of significant urban transportation projects in Calgary and its surrounding areas\, such as the 26 Avenue SW Improvements and Downtown Flood Barrier.

Currently\, Karim is engaged in the development of a system that visualizes and analyzes transit performance throughout Calgary\, aiming to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of public transportation in the city. \nPresentation #3: Urban Calgary Student’s Association\nUrbanCSA works to promote connections and community between students\, faculty\, and local professionals. Over the past 8 months the club has tripled its student membership compared to the previous year and grown professional connections in the community. Our presentation highlights some of the major events and collaborations UrbanCSA has organized\, our plans for the upcoming year\, and how professional connects in the Calgary urban-industry vastly improves the post-secondary student experience. \nBiographies\nMax Webber is an Urban Studies student at the University of Calgary with a Minor in Architecture. He is an Executive VP for the Urban Calgary Students’ Association (UrbanCSA) and the Student Representative for Urban Studies within the Department of Geography. Max has spent the last year working with UrbanCSA to create a strong network connecting students and professionals\, and providing actual urban design opportunities for club members. He also works as the Director of Traffic and Development for the community of Southwood\, where he engages residents and addresses local concerns. \nSydney Ikeda just completed her third year in the Urban Studies program at the University of Calgary with a Minor in Economics.

SUMMARY:ITE Southern Alberta: Canmore Bike Tour
DESCRIPTION:Date\nSaturday\, September 16\, 2023 \nSchedule\n\n10:00 am Meet at parking lot\n10:00 am-12:00 pm – Bike tour\n12:00 pm – Lunch Buffet at Iron Goat Lodge: Bar and Grill\n\nNotes\nBikes will not be provided for the tour. Please either bring your own or rent. Bike rental discounts of 20% off regular price are being offered by Rundle Mountain Bike Rental (1-1743 Bow Valley Trail)\, where regular and electric bikes are available. Attendees can book their bikes online ahead of time (only credit card info is needed\, no payment)\, and during pickup/payment mention they are part of ITE Southern Alberta Section Canmore Bike Tour to receive this discount. \nLocation\n500 Benchlands Trail (Parking lot off of Benchlands Trail across from Iron Goat Pub and Grill) \nCost\n\n$20 for Public Agency Members\n$35 for ITE members\n$40 for non-ITE members\n$15 for Student ITE Members\n($650 Sponsorship)\n\nTransportation corridors make up the vast majority of public space in communities. How we allocate and design that space fundamentally influences the way a community looks\, feels and operates. No other aspect of engineering has such a critical role in shaping not just operational aspects of how people move\, but also the social\, economic and environmental outcomes for communities. While the practice of transportation engineering is evolving\, even today the tools and techniques used often result in poor outcomes for communities. While solving short-term vehicle transportation problems\, traditional methods can leave communities with long term congestion\, and safety and accessibility issues. Canmore is unique only in it’s constraints\, and these constraints have forced the community to adopt integrated approaches sooner and more aggressively than most. \nThis tour will lead participants through a range of designs and show where a different set of priorities have been applied. Narrow traffic lanes\, windy roads\, wide paths\, separated bicycle facilities\, raised mid-block crossings\, continuous crossings\, and near-side traffic signals will be highlighted as emerging best-practice. Benefits of the trade-offs between convenience while driving and place-making will be on display throughout\, including in areas where lanes have been narrowed\, turn bays have been removed\, and four-lane cross-sections have been converted to three-lane roads. We will travel by bicycle on some of Canmore’s best and worst infrastructure to experience first-hand being placed in a variety of situations by designers. It is hoped that through this short glimpse into different infrastructure types\, you’ll leave with a strong impression of the impacts that transportation designs can have on the way people travel\, and more importantly\, how community is created by roadway designs. All cycling abilities are welcome! \nTour Lead\n \nAndy Esarte is a civil engineer and graduate of the University of Western Ontario\, and has managed the engineering department for the Town of Canmore for the past 12 years. During that time he has overseen the development of Canmore’s first Integrated Transportation Plan in 2013 and subsequent update in 2018\, as well as Canmore’s first Integrated Parking Management Plan in 2018. Prior to joining the Canmore team\, Andy worked as a project manager for light rail transit projects for the City of Calgary and designed bridges and heavy civil structures in consulting. \nResidents of Canmore since 2013\, Andy and his wife Karen have two young children aged 9 and 11. As a goal\, Andy aspires to creating a transportation network for Canmore that allows for safe and accessible travel by all residents and visitors to Canmore\, regardless of age or ability\, and with equity between travel modes.
