Concrete bus pads

completed

Design and Construction: Would allow for the improvement of waiting and boarding conditions at 100 stops across the OC Transpo system. Concrete pads provide a more comfortable place to wait year-round, improve the ability of customers using mobility devices to board and disembark from buses, and can also allow for the installation of shelters. Additionally, the project would support other related works if/where possible, which may include but not necessarily be limited to connections between pedestrian/cycling locations and transit system locations. An example may be supporting 40-foot diesel bus acquisition in relation to routes in the proximity of the concrete bus pads to aid pedestrian and cycling traffic connectivity to the bus network. The expanded project activities are intended to further the City’s ability to advance safer community active transportation / transit priorities by leveraging the remaining program funding allocation as much as possible. This is consistent with Council’s strategic direction.
