- W658316315 abstract "It has been over 15 years since the last transportation plan was created for the City of North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Since then there have been substantial changes to the City, the region and the public’s expectations of the City and its transportation network. That plan focused almost entirely on the roadway network and to a much lesser degree on other modes of transportation. Since that time, a new Official Community Plan (OCP) was developed, emphasizing a vision of becoming a “vibrant, diverse and highly livable community that strives to balance the social, economic and environmental needs of our community locally”. The City is well-developed municipality with limited room to expand a transportation infrastructure, and any enhancement of transportation facilities and services – such as roadway networks, transit, bicycle routes, and pedestrian facilities – must “fit” with the existing network and evolve as the City grows. This often requires non-traditional and creative transportation solutions that achieve City goals, while minimizing impacts on existing neighborhoods and residents. As such, the City has chosen to develop a new comprehensive, multi-modal Transportation Plan to serve as a “road map” for the next decade and beyond and to help the City to achieve goals outlined in the OCP and to move toward its overall Vision for a sustainable community. It will also help to integrate the Transportation Plan with many of the City’s other planning initiatives, such as the land use, parks and greenways, and greenhouse gas reduction strategies. In the long term, effective implementation of the Transportation Plan will help the City to achieve many of its goals: A transportation system with more travel choices for residents and workers; A people-oriented, accessible and vibrant community; Reduced local greenhouse gas emissions; A healthy local economy supported by efficient movement of goods and services; A more efficient road network that safely and effectively accommodates all modes; Collaboration with our neighboring municipalities and other agencies The Transportation Plan for the City accomplishes much more than the typical long-term Plan for the roadway network, transit system, pedestrian and bicycle facilities as well as travel demand management programs. It identifies the key directions for the transportation system that are required to achieve the highest order goals of the community. It is designed to support modes that are given priority in the OCP, namely, walking, transit, and cycling; to work toward a balanced transportation system that is strongly integrated with the City’s other plans and programs and with our neighboring municipalities; and to support efficient movement of people and goods. In this regard, the expectations for the Transportation Plan are inherently connected with the community vision. Therefore, the phasing and priorities of improvements recommended within the Plan are influenced by how an investment will move the City toward these goals. Our paper and presentation will describe the key elements of the Plan and will focus on what was unique about this approach in comparison the recently developed best practices published by TAC and other typical city-wide plans that have been prepared over the last few years" @default.
