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:On-Demand Transit Service
DESCRIPTION:Brought to you by the ITE National Capital Section \nWhen you think about public transit\, do you think big buses\, schedules\, and stops? While a great tool for moving lots of people in dense\, urban environments\, many transit agencies and municipalities across the world have identified the need for a more creative\, right-sized transit solution to better suit the needs of small\, suburban\, rural\, or even remote communities. \nJoin us for a discussion of the potential applications of technology in the delivery of On Demand transit service\, and how Canadian cities have used this approach to better serve residents and communities. \nErin Blay\nErin Blay is a transit planner with over 10 years of experience in transit and transportation planning\, most recently as the Supervisor of Service Design & Projects at Halifax Transit. Based in Dillon’s Ottawa Office\, she has considerable experience delivering capital projects\, designing new transit routes\, public engagement and partnering with local employers and organizations to deliver Transportation Demand Management programming. Erin is the currently the Project Manager of the Transit Windsor East End Terminal relocation\, and has also recently contributed to a number of studies including a best practices summary for Bus Network Redesigns for Barrie Transit\, the City of Hamilton’s review of specialized transit service delivery model. \nErin’s other recent projects have included the roll out of the Moving Forward Together Plan\, the Halifax Transit network redesign\, a Bus Rapid Transit Study\, the launch of the Halifax Transit Low-Income Transit Pass Program and the Rural Transit Funding Program. \nErin brings to her role experience from transit agencies across Canada and the consulting world\, as well as a passion for all things that get people out of their cars. Her goal is to help make transportation more accessible\, inclusive\, and equitable by building robust and affordable transit networks in municipalities large and small. \n \n\nJoin Virtual Event:\nhttps://meet.goto.com/316221589\n
