Councillor
A. Paquette stated that at the next regular meeting of City Council, he would
move the following:
That
Administration provide a report outlining a draft proposal to remove user
(toll) fees from City of Edmonton transit that includes, but is not limited
to:
·
a plan to
increase safety and security on transit vehicles and at transit stops and
stations, including the potential to redirect existing resources currently
designated to payment enforcement toward security, as well as other scenarios
(increased FTEs),
·
estimated impact
on the city budget, including removal or redirection of administrative and
enforcement resources related to transit fares,
·
an analysis of
the benefits and estimated savings to the City of Edmonton, City partners,
school boards, and the provincial and federal governments on areas such as:
·
time and resource
savings from obsolescence of low-income, student, and senior transit pass
programs (U-Pass, Donate-a-Ride, Ride Transit, PATH, AISH, AB Works)
·
increased access
to employment, social, health and wellness opportunities
·
ridership
impacts on commute times, road congestion and reduced need for road
construction and maintenance
·
economic benefit
and productivity opportunities
·
reduced vehicle
emissions
·
benefits to
vulnerable populations
·
feasibility of
implementing this as a one year zero user fee pilot program to assess
ridership change
·
potential for a
regional shared transit partnership through a shared investment for shared
benefit model with attention to the existing EIA partnership with the City of
Edmonton and the developing partnership with Enoch Cree Nation (including
opportunities for increased economic activities and efficiencies of
alignment),
·
potential areas
for further integration or increased funding partnerships with school boards
and provincial and federal governments,
·
implications for
smart fare and how advancement of fare technology can be used to track
ridership, not solely to facilitate payment,
·
any new
opportunities for improving routes and increasing ridership.
