SUMMARY:ITE Northern Alberta: On Demand Transit - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The City of Edmonton has recently selected Pacific Western Transportation (PWT) to launch Canada’s largest On Demand Transit service\, joining a growing list of cities across Canada with On Demand Transit. Please join us for a presentation from PWT about On Demand Transit and the different ways it is being used in Edmonton and other communities across the country. The presentation will include an interactive simulation and discuss implications for urban design and environmental and financial impacts. \nAbout the Speakers \nJames Vine – Director of Operations (AB) and Business Development\nJames Vine has worked for Pacific Western for over 11 years. In 2010 he transitioned to a management role in PWT’s Prince George Transit operations\, managing approximately 60 employees in that branch. James was a recipient of a 2013 Top 40 Under 40 Award from Mass Transit Magazine for his leadership of employees and involvement in transit system planning and analysis. In 2020\, James became head of PWT’s Alberta Transit portfolio\, which includes contracted transit operations to six municipalities/transit agencies. \nDan Finley – Vice President of Corporate Services\nDan Finley has been a member of the Pacific Western Transportation Executive Team since 2012 and has led the organization in a variety of functions such as HR\, Operations\, Business Development\, Communications\, Government Relations\, Process Improvement and Advancing Transportation Technology. He has developed and implemented PWT’s On Demand strategy and has led the start-up of multiple operations\, working to transfer client vision to real-world operations. \nJohn Stepovy – Director\, Sales & Business Development / On Demand Lead\nJohn Stepovy has been with Pacific Western Transportation for over 13 years\, starting in Operations and later as General Manager of our flagship luxury inter-city motorcoach service Red Arrow.

SUMMARY:A Safety Assessment of Driver Feedback Signs and Development of Future Expansion Program
DESCRIPTION:Speeding and dangerous driving have consistently been recognized as important issues for the City of Edmonton. To improve drivers’ compliance with speeds\, various passive/active countermeasures have been adopted by municipalities around the world. A Driver Feedback Sign (DFS) is one such countermeasure as it dynamically displays the speed of the driver and warns them if they are speeding. Acknowledging positive public response\, the City has implemented DFSs at various accident-prone areas across the city. While DFS is deemed effective in voluntary speed reduction\, high costs along with the need to cover Edmonton’s large road network necessitate a strategic and scientific approach to allocating signs. \nThis presentation will demonstrate how different modelling frameworks can be developed and applied to solve the following two specific problems using the City as a case study:\n1) Estimation of safety benefits of DFS\, and\n2) Development of the optimal DFS implementation strategy. \nAbout the Speakers \nDr. Tae J. Kwon joined the University of Alberta in 2016 after receiving his Ph.D. from the University of Waterloo. Dr. Kwon’s research focuses on winter road maintenance\, location optimization of Intelligent Transportation System facilities\, geomatics\, spatial and temporal analyses of road traffic and safety using Big Data and Deep Learning. Dr. Kwon’s research has been supported by many organizations including NSERC\, Alberta Transportation\, Alberta EcoTrust\, Iowa Department of Transportation\, CIMA+\, and others. \nMingjian Wu is a Ph.D. student at the University of Alberta under the supervision of Dr. Tae J. Kwon. During his M.Sc. studies\, Mr. Wu focused on quantifying the safety effects of driver feedback sign (DFS) and location allocation strategies under the co-supervision of Dr. Kwon and Dr. El-Basyouny. Mr. Wu’s current research interests lie primarily in the areas of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Big Data analysis in winter transportation engineering (e.g.\, winter road maintenance)\, traffic safety and collision modelling\, and facility location and allocation optimizations using various heuristic algorithms. \nRegister Here or the event link

SUMMARY:CITE Northern Alberta Webinar: Open Option Parking in Edmonton
DESCRIPTION:In virtually every Canadian municipality\, it goes without question that new homes and businesses must provide off-street parking spaces for customers and residents. These minimum parking requirements have a significant impact on the form and function of our communities\, and are of increasingly questionable value. On June 23\, 2020\, Edmonton City Council voted to remove minimum parking requirements from Edmonton’s Zoning Bylaw. Removing parking minimums doesn’t necessarily mean that no parking will be provided. Rather\, the amount of parking provided is left to the developers\, businesses and homeowners — those who best understand their parking needs. \nThis presentation details Edmonton’s journey to eliminating parking minimums city-wide\, including the public consultation and technical studies we undertook to understand why open option parking is essential to building a better city. \nAbout the Speakers \nAnne Stevenson (RPP) has worked in urban design and planning for the past 15 years\, both in Canada and abroad. She is passionate about building more equitable cities that serve all residents. Following 7 years at the City of Edmonton\, Anne now works in affordable housing with the Right at Home Housing Society. \nJames Veltkamp (RPP\, MCIP) has over 10 years experience working as a Professional Planner in public service. James has a professional interest in improving the effectiveness of local government to meet its long term strategic goals. His current role with the City of Edmonton specializes in Zoning Bylaw text amendments\, and he spent the last six years building support for what became the comprehensive parking review\, and Charter Bylaw 19275. \nDallas Karhut (P. Eng.) is a Transportation Engineer with a keen interest in how the analysis and design of our transportation systems evolve to better adapt to the needs of people who walk\, bike\, ride transit and drive. His current role with the City of Edmonton focuses on developing city-wide transportation plans and policies\, and he also has experience in site and neighbourhood-level traffic and parking planning.
