Goal of the Project To increase literacy about mobility pricing and to hear Metro Vancouver citizens’ ideas and concerns about the challenges and opportunities of mobility pricing for Metro Vancouver roads.

Regional Citizens’ Dialogues Design - 4 half-day community dialogues of 20-30
participants - Burnaby, Surrey, Langley, Vancouver - Incorporated a variety of interactive exercises to:
- increase literacy of road pricing - identify the likes and dislikes of various road pricing
schemes - identify the principles for a potential road pricing scheme

Information Base
- Prior to the dialogues participants were sent a discussion guide with: - Road pricing technologies and programs around the
world - Potential opportunities for the Metro Vancouver context - Relevant issues of concern

Who participated?
Our recruitment efforts attempted to reflect the age, ethnicity,
and gender diversity of the region

Key Findings: Familiarity with the Various Road Pricing Schemes
(Before/After)
![Page 9: SFU Centre for Dialogue Moving in Metro · SFU Centre for Dialogue . Moving in Metro . ... - UBC/SFU student debate ... This long life cycle for TransLink conventional bus is possible](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020302/5ad4be477f8b9a177c8c1e0c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Key Findings: Change in Support for Some Form of Road Pricing
(Thought Shifts)
![Page 10: SFU Centre for Dialogue Moving in Metro · SFU Centre for Dialogue . Moving in Metro . ... - UBC/SFU student debate ... This long life cycle for TransLink conventional bus is possible](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022020302/5ad4be477f8b9a177c8c1e0c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Key Findings: Qualitative
- Questions of fairness and equity are very important to citizens
- People want to have choice (optional road pricing schemes) as well as alternatives to road use
- Accountability is a big concern: how are decisions being made and where will the money be spent?
- People stress importance of flexible rates for peak hours, but also flexibility within the system that can make road pricing targeted and address concerns/inequities
![Page 11: SFU Centre for Dialogue Moving in Metro · SFU Centre for Dialogue . Moving in Metro . ... - UBC/SFU student debate ...

Key Findings: Qualitative
- People like systems that are easy to understand and implement and have been proven in other places
- People like direct link between where revenues are raised and where they are spent
- Most people are multi-modal (and many consider themselves multi-modal)

Lessons Learned - Recruitment process was onerous, could have benefited from
a small incentive to participants - Consider knowledge testing before the distribution of the
discussion guide - Add more sessions – four was too few for region - TransLink/Metro Vancouver representative at all sessions - Langley session – transit access was not ideal

Lessons Learned - More acknowledgement of elected officials present - More Q&A time, fewer speakers - More time for small group sessions - Debate was too long, had mixed reviews - Very strong recruitment effort led to high participation and
sectoral diversity - Media coverage was excellent, Op-Eds spurred attention and
media panel was a success

1 A better place to live based on transportation excellence
Strategic Priorities Fund Application
Overview of Fuel Types/Propulsion System Technology
TransLink uses several vehicle fuel types, each of which provides advantages depending on service mode: - Hybrid Diesel-Electric:
- Best for use in urban core areas with a lot of stop-and-go due to traffic; advantages not realized in suburban areas
- Lower emissions than Diesel or CNG overall - Compressed Natural Gas (CNG):
- Best for use in suburban settings with longer distances between stops - Slight emissions advantages over diesel - Do not perform as well as hybrids or Diesels in urban settings
- Diesel - Appropriate for conventional vehicles used in urban & suburban settings
and where CNG buses cannot operate near Trolleys - Inexpensive and greatest operational flexibility - Excellent performance & gradeability on Vancouver’s steep hills

2 A better place to live based on transportation excellence
Strategic Priorities Fund Application
Advances in CNG Engine technology 2008 brought change from Lean Burn C-Gas+ engine to new ISL-G
Stoichometric engine
90% reduction in NOx emissions
Improved acceleration & gradeability
Improved spark-plug life & reduced voltage requirements
ISL G C-Gas +

3 A better place to live based on transportation excellence
Strategic Priorities Fund Application
Advantages of CNG - Environmental Substantial improvement in CNG bus technology on the market over time:
- CNG buses have demonstrated a 90% reduction in NOx compared to previous lean-burn CNG engines (pre-2008)
- Very low PM, more than 99% reduction compared to model year 2000 diesel bus

CNG – Emission Compared to Diesel
Emissions data from EPA MOVES Emissions Model, MJ Bradley & Associates, 2012 Clean Diesel versus CNG Buses

5 A better place to live based on transportation excellence
Strategic Priorities Fund Application
Advantages of CNG – Financial CNG operating costs have dropped significantly vs. diesel:
- Substantial difference in cost of fuel per kilometre - Maintenance costs now the equal of diesel buses and engines now have
comparable durability
Capital costs have closed between CNG and Diesel engine technologies - CNG buses are now less than 10% more expensive the comparable diesel
buses

8 A better place to live based on transportation excellence
Strategic Priorities Fund Application
Advantages of CNG – Reliability Improved reliability
- New Stoichiometric CNG engines have improved reliability with a simple three-way catalyst (TWC) for emissions control
Much improved power & performance and vehicle gradeability on Vancouver’s steep terrain

Vehicle Lifecycle Standards TransLink replaces its conventional 12.3m (40’) and 18.3m (60’
articulated) buses after a minimum of 17 years/+1,000,000 kms
Many buses of TransLink’s conventional fleet remain in service for more 17 years (1987 MCI Classics were replaced in 2007 after 20 years of service, 1983 Trolleys were replaced in 2007 after 24 year of service)
This replacement standard is consistent with other Canadian Transit Agencies but greater than U.S. FTA policy of 12 years/500,000 miles (800,000 kms)
This long life cycle for TransLink conventional bus is possible through a comprehensive preventative maintenance program and through specifying the most durable components for buses at time of purchase (stainless steel frame, composite floors, stainless steel heater boxes & ducting, etc.)

Growth Redistribution Effect

Key Observations
An 8-lane untolled bridge provides travel time benefits, but demand approaches capacity in 2045
An 8-lane tolled bridge manages growth in traffic and may prolong capacity beyond 2045
A new 8-lane bridge may have only minor effects on the redistribution of population and employment growth, assuming UCB and ALR remain unchanged.
