CRP 2014 GreenTRIP Application to Alberta Transportation(Draft)
Client logo
• $2 billion Program introduced in June 2010 by Alberta Transportation
• Invest in world class transit capital projects-up to 2/3 of total
capital cost to: – Increase transit ridership and mode share – Reduce traffic congestion and greenhouse gas emissions – Provide greater accessibility for all trips
– Projects should advance Provincial Building Alberta Plan, Land Use Framework and Climate Change Strategy, and assist in providing strong economic foundation
Program Purpose and Objectives
Client logo
• Transit Capital Projects started after 2012
• Design and construction of bus, BRT, commuter rail and LRT systems
• Purchase of buses and LRT vehicles and key equipment components such as real time displays, fareboxes etc., traction power-vehicles can be for replacement or new service
• Design and construction of bus/LRT storage/maintenance facilities, including land
• Purchase of shelters, ITS, fareboxes and other transit equipment
• Design and construction of park and ride and transit exchange facilities
• Design and construction of commuter rail systems
• Complete Applications Due before End of November, 2104
