SUMMARY:Southern Alberta ITE February Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Guest presenters: \nRegional Transportation Planning – HDR \nThe continued growth of urban areas throughout North America has created the need for new planning techniques to coordinate across traditional municipal boundaries. A regional perspective is often needed understand the major issues and opportunities that our cities face\, and to identify the best way forward. When successfully implemented\, regional transportation planning is a powerful tool that can be used to bring independent jurisdictions together\, aligning their approaches to long-range transportation planning\, enabling them to collectively advocate for shared improvements and funding\, and ultimate support a collective regional vision or plan. \nOur recent experience helping regions in British Columbia\, Alberta and Ontario plan for their future has enabled us to learn how to bring together municipalities to develop forward-thinking transportation plans at the regional level. In our presentation we will go through our approach and experience on the recently completed Regional Transportation Plan for the Central Okanagan\, the first of its kind for the Kelowna Region. We cover the approaches and strategies that we used and lessons learned in areas including project organization\, stakeholder management and engagement\, and analysis methodologies that can be used to align visions and build agreement for the mutual benefit of all partners. \nStephen Power\, P.Eng.\, RPP\, MCIP \nStephen is a Senior Transportation Planner and Engineer with over 30 years of experience in transportation and environmental planning. He has a strong understanding of the regional issues\, with experience in regional and intermunicipal transportation and environmental planning across Canada\, and in New Zealand and Australia. He is currently leading the Edmonton Metropolitan Region’s Integrated Regional Transportation Master Plan and recently completed the Central Okanagan’s first regional transportation plan. He is a skilled communicator with an ability to make technical topics easily understood. Stephen has recently managed complex multi-jurisdictional transportation projects such as the Central Okanagan Planning Study\, Deerfoot Trail Study\, and the on-going Calgary Metropolitan Region Growth and Servicing Plan. \n \nLynn Machacek\, P.Eng. \nLynn is a transportation engineer and planner with broad experience in multi-modal transportation engineering\, analysis\, planning\, engagement\, and goods movement. He is passionate about creating great places and travel options\, and has been the lead transportation planner on regional transportation planning projects\, goods movement studies\, and large scale multi-modal micro-simulation analyses. His work has included in-depth stakeholder consultation for network and regional planning studies\, the identification and analysis of multi-modal issues and solutions at varied scales\, and the development of evaluation and prioritization methodologies for regional transportation planning projects. \n \n\nJoin Virtual Event:\nhttps://global.gotomeeting.com/join/175312981\n

SUMMARY:GVITE Online Presentation: Alex Fraser Bridge Improvement Project
DESCRIPTION:About the Presentation: \nThe Alex Fraser Bridge Improvement Project is the most recent recipient of GVITE’s Bill Curtis Award for an outstanding transportation project. \nWith upwards of 120\,000 vehicles using the Alex Fraser Bridge daily\, congestion was a growing problem. Motorists were experiencing excessive delays and queues more than three kilometres long during rush hours. The BC Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure’s Alex Fraser Bridge Improvement Project greatly improved conditions with the addition of a seventh lane\, an innovative movable barrier counter-flow system\, and 13 new dynamic message signs throughout the Lower Mainland. \nThe Project has resulted in approximately 20-minutes travel time savings during the southbound PM peak\, and approximately 10-minutes travel time savings during the northbound AM peak. \nBinnie/MOTI’s innovative design represents the first and only moveable barrier counter-flow system in western Canada. \n \nAbout the Presenters: \nEdmund Lee\, P.Eng.\nTransportation Major Projects Division Manager\, Principal\nR.F. Binnie & Associates Ltd.\n\nEdmund Lee is a Division Manager at Binnie\, with 31 years of experience in the areas of roadway design\, traffic engineering\, and transportation planning.
