    Calgary Regional Transit Plan
    (AECOM Canada Ltd., 2009-11-20) AECOM Canada Ltd
    The proposed growth management strategy and policies contained in the Calgary Metropolitan Plan (CMP) of the Calgary Regional Partnership (CRP) have focused on the need to plan for a metropolitan region that is expected to grow to a size of approximately 2.8 million people by 2070 (from a base of approximately 1.2 million residents today) and accommodate an additional 800,000 jobs over the same period. Plans for efficient and costeffective infrastructure are integrated into the CMP’s proposed regional settlement pattern, which promotes intensification of existing development and directs new development to areas that can be supported by the efficient delivery of water, wastewater and transit systems. There are a number of specific CMP policies supporting the regional transit system and its strong integration with land use, which are outlined in the report.

    A brief explanation on the cost sharing model used for the south sub-regional transit pilot project
    Stantec Consulting Ltd
    Cost Sharing is a decision based on values. The CRP sub-regional service cost sharing methodology is based on the following three principles: 1. Equal: Implementing the service together is more beneficial than implementing service individually. 2. Population/ridership: Communities should be responsible for the portion of service used by the people from each community. 3. Service hours/distance: Communities should be responsible for the amount of service received and relative costs.
