DESCRIPTION:Presentation Summary \nThe transportation profession is beginning to recognize that the curbside can accommodate more than just on-street parking. The City of Coquitlam is currently undertaking a City-Wide Parking Review to review and update on-street and off-street parking policies to better address evolving region-wide mobility trends\, support sustainability goals\, and accommodate future parking needs. As part of this review\, WATT Consulting Group led the Curbside Management Study that featured a robust data collection program on curbside activity for a high-demand area in Coquitlam. The resulting data was used to develop policies and regulations to manage and balance the wide variety of competing curbside uses within Coquitlam’s Transit-Oriented Development areas. This included a set of guiding principles\, a policy framework\, and a toolkit to guide decision-making and implementation of curbside management. Learn about how different street users are using the curbside throughout the day. \n \nAbout the Presenters \nVictor Ngo is a Senior Transportation Planner with WATT Consulting Group where he advises public and private sector clients on sustainable transportation and mobility solutions.

SUMMARY:Protected Intersection Design
DESCRIPTION:Note that this session will qualify for PDH credit for attendees.\n \nSession is being held over two days from Noon to 3:30PM Eastern Time. A virtual session registration link will be sent upon successful registering for the session here. \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\nThere will be a total of three training sessions on different dates. These training sessions will be performed virtually in two half-day segments and each training session will have between 30 and 40 participants. The interactive group exercises will be facilitated through break-out rooms which are anticipated to consist of 5-7 participants\, with the exact number depending on the total number of participants in the training session. Breakout rooms will be virtual and will use collaborative tools such as Conceptboard or Miro to allow all participants to contribute to the discussion. \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\nKalle Hakala\nKalle has over 14 years of planning experience in active transportation planning\, land use policy\, environmental policy\, and development review working for Alta Planning + Design\, the City of Ottawa\, and the City of Guelph. He recently led the development of the City of Ottawa’s Protected Intersection Design Guide which won the 2022 TAC Mobility Achievement Award and is regularly referenced by jurisdictions far beyond Ottawa.

SUMMARY:ITE Southern Alberta: Montgomery Main Street Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Montgomery Main Streets – Fall Walking Tour \nWe are pleased to be hosting a fall walking tour of the Montgomery Main Streets Project with Ervina Hendra and Marcia Eng. This project received the 2022 ITE International Transportation Achievement Award in Complete Streets. \nThe Montgomery Main Streets – Bowness Road project improves the road\, community\, and public spaces for everyone who lives\, commutes through\, and visits Montgomery. The design right-sized driving lanes and created safer and more inviting spaces for people walking and bicycling with widened sidewalks\, street trees\, street furnishing\, plaza area and a raised cycle track to turn Montgomery into a destination. The Montgomery Main Streets – Bowness Road project is one of the first of 24 Main Street projects that moved to construction. The city’s Main Streets program implements a comprehensive process to transform main streets into places where people want to live work and play\, recognizing the need for both public and private investment to make the area more attractive to businesses and residents. Creating a high-quality streetscape in an established area requires that the design and construction are both innovative and collaborative. For Montgomery Main Streets\, that included piloting new materials for accessibility\, stormwater\, and landscape designs. \nBowness Road runs through the heart of the community and is fronted by a mix of residential\, small business and mixed-use buildings. It connects to recreations centers\, schools\, and large regional parks along the Bow River. During construction the project team knew maintaining traffic and pedestrian flow and maintaining access to private properties was of utmost importance. Relationships with the Montgomery Community Association and Montgomery Business Improvement Area during public engagement and construction created an environment of trust for the intent\, design\, and implementation of the city’s newest main street \nErvina and Marcia will highlight key design features of the project as part of the walking tour\, and share lessons learned and best practices that transportation practitioners in Southern Alberta can adopt in their project activities. We will conclude the tour at Rising Tides Tap Room with a celebratory toast to the award winning Montgomery Main Streets Project and Team. \nErvina Hendra\, P.Eng.\, PMP\, LEED AP®\, Senior Transportation Engineer\, Urban and Community Systems\, The City of Calgary – Public Spaces Delivery \nErvina is a Senior Project Manager with over 17 years of experience in a wide variety of infrastructure projects from vertical builds to transportation corridors. Her career includes both public and private sector.

SUMMARY:ITE Manitoba November Webinar: Highlights from Winnipeg Transit’s Zero-Emission Bus Program
DESCRIPTION:The ITE Manitoba Section is hosting an upcoming webinar on Thursday November 17th. This webinar will feature Erin Cooke of the City of Winnipeg\, who will present on Highlights from Winnipeg Transit’s Zero-Emission Bus Program. The webinar will be hosted by Steven Florko of MORR Transportation Consulting Ltd.\, and ITE Manitoba President. \nWebinar Networking\nAs per usual\, we will begin the webinar with 15 minutes of networking in breakout groups. \nSpeaker\nErin Cooke is an accredited Professional Engineer (P. Eng.) and Project Management Professional (PMP) with more than 18 years of experience managing technology projects in the transit and specialty vehicle industries. Erin currently oversees Winnipeg Transit’s bus electrification program\, where she analyzes technological\, operational\, financial\, and environmental considerations involved in transitioning to a zero-emission fleet. Her recently released Transition to Zero-emission Technology Evaluation Report provides the framework for Winnipeg Transit to evaluate currently available zero-emission technology and support future decisions on transit electrification. Erin founded a working group for Mid-size transit agencies in Canada working towards zero-emission transit to support electrification efforts coast to coast and chairs the Canadian Urban Transit Research & Innovation Consortium (CUTRIC) Zero Emission bus committee. She also actively participates in several NRC working groups in support of the hydrogen strategy of Canada. \nPrior to her work at Transit\, she both designed and led development of battery-electric and (hydrogen) fuel cell-electric transit bus projects as part of New Flyer’s New Product Development team. As an expert with extensive experience and knowledge in the development and application of zero-emission bus operations she is a frequent invited speaker for vehicle electrification and hydrogen fuel cell conferences\, webinars and training programs\, both in Canada and internationally. \nPresentation\nWinnipeg Transit was an early leader in zero-emission buses\, yet more than 4 years after its ground breaking trial ended there are still no zero-emission buses operating on Winnipeg streets. Battery-electric buses reduce GHGs and other pollutants; were proven to be quieter and cheaper to operate than their diesel counterparts; and were able to operate reliably year round. So why didn’t Winnipeg Transit start buying more buses immediately after the trial? \nIt wasn’t directly a technology problem.

Join Virtual EventDESCRIPTION:The ITE Manitoba Section is hosting an upcoming webinar on Thursday November 17th. This webinar will feature Erin Cooke of the City of Winnipeg\, who will present on Highlights from Winnipeg Transit’s Zero-Emission Bus Program. The webinar will be hosted by Steven Florko of MORR Transportation Consulting Ltd.\, and ITE Manitoba President. \nWebinar Networking\nAs per usual\, we will begin the webinar with 15 minutes of networking in breakout groups. \nSpeaker\nErin Cooke is an accredited Professional Engineer (P. Eng.) and Project Management Professional (PMP) with more than 18 years of experience managing technology projects in the transit and specialty vehicle industries. Erin currently oversees Winnipeg Transit’s bus electrification program\, where she analyzes technological\, operational\, financial\, and environmental considerations involved in transitioning to a zero-emission fleet. Her recently released Transition to Zero-emission Technology Evaluation Report provides the framework for Winnipeg Transit to evaluate currently available zero-emission technology and support future decisions on transit electrification. Erin founded a working group for Mid-size transit agencies in Canada working towards zero-emission transit to support electrification efforts coast to coast and chairs the Canadian Urban Transit Research & Innovation Consortium (CUTRIC) Zero Emission bus committee. She also actively participates in several NRC working groups in support of the hydrogen strategy of Canada. \nPrior to her work at Transit\, she both designed and led development of battery-electric and (hydrogen) fuel cell-electric transit bus projects as part of New Flyer’s New Product Development team. As an expert with extensive experience and knowledge in the development and application of zero-emission bus operations she is a frequent invited speaker for vehicle electrification and hydrogen fuel cell conferences\, webinars and training programs\, both in Canada and internationally. \nPresentation\nWinnipeg Transit was an early leader in zero-emission buses\, yet more than 4 years after its ground breaking trial ended there are still no zero-emission buses operating on Winnipeg streets. Battery-electric buses reduce GHGs and other pollutants; were proven to be quieter and cheaper to operate than their diesel counterparts; and were able to operate reliably year round. So why didn’t Winnipeg Transit start buying more buses immediately after the trial? \nIt wasn’t directly a technology problem. The demonstration project allowed all of the partners involved to learn key lessons about the construction\, operation\, and maintenance of battery-electric buses\, but did little to assess the costs and the complexity associated with large-scale integration of buses and infrastructure into existing transit operations. Transitioning Winnipeg Transit from a diesel bus operator to a zero-emission bus operator will not be as easy as simply replacing a diesel bus with a zero-emission bus. It will require a systemic change to operations throughout the entire organization\, and significant amounts of planning over the course of several years to implement. \nErin Cooke\, head of Winnipeg Transit’s Bus Electrification Program\, will present an overview of the program highlighting work completed to estimate future electrical loads; design in energy resiliency with solar PV generation and battery storage; the need and timing for utility updates; and share with you the challenges and lessons Transit learned through this process. \n

SUMMARY:Protected Intersection Design
DESCRIPTION:Note that this session will qualify for PDH credit for attendees.\n \nSession is being held over two days from Noon to 3:30PM Eastern Time. A virtual session registration link will be sent upon successful registering for the session here. \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\nThere will be a total of three training sessions on different dates. These training sessions will be performed virtually in two half-day segments and each training session will have between 30 and 40 participants. The interactive group exercises will be facilitated through break-out rooms which are anticipated to consist of 5-7 participants\, with the exact number depending on the total number of participants in the training session. Breakout rooms will be virtual and will use collaborative tools such as Conceptboard or Miro to allow all participants to contribute to the discussion. \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\nKalle Hakala\nKalle has over 14 years of planning experience in active transportation planning\, land use policy\, environmental policy\, and development review working for Alta Planning + Design\, the City of Ottawa\, and the City of Guelph. He recently led the development of the City of Ottawa’s Protected Intersection Design Guide which won the 2022 TAC Mobility Achievement Award and is regularly referenced by jurisdictions far beyond Ottawa. He is passionate about a wide range of active transportation projects\, including Cycling Safety at High-Volume Intersections and Stage 2 LRT Connectivity Studies for the City of Ottawa\, the Bayridge Drive Complete Street in Kingston\, the Halifax Shared Micromobility Readiness Study\, and active transportation plans across the country. He is always looking to advance ways of making urban environments sustainable\, equitable\, and function better at the human scale. \nNataliya Pekar\nNataliya Pekar is a Civil Engineer with Alta Planning + Design. She works on active transportation projects across the country and spends her days applying a Complete Street lens to reimagine our streets. Nataliya also gets into the details of making intersections safe and comfortable for pedestrians and people on bikes while also operational and effective for transit\, motor vehicles\, and trucks depending on the context. Nataliya was on the team for the OTM Book 18 Update (2021)\, the Corner Design for All Users White Paper (2020)\, and the Ottawa Protected Intersection Design Guidelines (2021) and has been involved with the planning\, design\, and implementation of protected intersections across Canada\, including Toronto’s first protected intersection at Evelyn Wiggins Drive and Murray Ross Parkway\, and others in design in Kingston\, Halifax\, and Ottawa.\n\nJoin Virtual Event:\nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0vd-6rqj4qG9a-F6Wg52V68MiK5Y415YMx\n

SUMMARY:ITE National Capital Luncheon Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Diverging Diamond Interchanges – A Decade of Lessons Learned \nDiverging Diamond Interchanges\, or DDIs\, are a relatively new interchange that has greatly expanded in prominence over the past fifteen years. The first DDI in the US opened in 2008 and opened with little fanfare though it would draw hundreds of visiting engineers to tour it in the years after its opening. This presenter was involved in the post evaluation of that interchange kicking off almost a decade and a half of working on DDIs around the world. This presentation utilizes over ten years of case studies of DDI projects spanning the globe and will highlight lessons learned that span geometric design\, traffic operations and analysis\, public outreach and education\, and maintenance. All of the case studies will involve firsthand experience and involvement and provide insight into design and operational issues that have changed the way subsequent projects have been developed. Case studies will span projects from conceptual development and alternatives analysis to final design to construction and operation. The lessons learned will specifically highlight elements that can be easily overlooked that have direct safety and operational impacts. The presentation will also include elements and issues that need to be taken into account on future projects as well as post-implementation comparisons. \nSummary \nThis presentation utilizes over ten years of case studies of Diverging Diamond Interchange projects spanning the globe and will highlight lessons learned that span geometric design\, traffic operations and analysis\, public outreach and education\, and maintenance. \nBio \nMr. Siromaskul‘s DDI experience includes approximately 100 different project sites with over 40 projects carried into the design process\, half of which are open to traffic\, including the smallest DDI in the world in Cheyenne\, WY\, and the largest DDI in the world in Sarasota\, FL.\n\nJoin Virtual Event:\nhttps://youtu.be/nVrdmOiyYA8\n

SUMMARY:ITE Northern Alberta: December Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Evolving Edmonton’s Neighbourhood Renewal Program \nPresenter: Jen Rutledge\, City of Edmonton \nThe City of Edmonton started renewing neighbourhoods in 1995\, and since has established a long-term Neighbourhood Renewal Program. The Program has gone from a “like for like” replacement of transportation infrastructure to expand and look at neighbourhoods more broadly. As the transportation infrastructure is being completely removed and replaced\, this provides the opportunity to add work related to other initiatives and programs including safe mobility\, open space and park developments\, LID\, improvements to commercial properties and active transportation. \nJen Rutledge’s Bio: \nJen is a Professional Engineer with over 17 years of project management\, contract administration\, and technical expertise related to transportation engineering in both the public and private sectors. Most of her career has been spent on strategy\, planning and design stages of transit\, rail and roadway projects\, with a heavy focus on neighbourhood-level infrastructure. \nJen currently works for the City of Edmonton\, and is a Supervisor in the Neighbourhoods Planning and Design section of Building Great Neighbourhoods. Her work involves stewarding the Edmonton’s Neighbourhood Renewal Program\, feeding her passion of rebuilding Edmonton one neighbourhood at a time. \nDate: December 7\, 2022 \nTime: Registration & Social: 11:40 – 12:00 PM (MST) \nLuncheon & Presentation: 12:00 – 1:00 PM (MST) \nLocation: Faculty Club at the University of Alberta\, Winspear Room\, 11435 Saskatchewan Drive\, Edmonton\, AB \nCost: $35.00 ITE Member / $40 Non-ITE Member / $50 Late Registration (within 24 hours of event start)
