Challenges and opportunities for access and mobility. 


Picture
​One of the first tasks of INSTPP was to identify the key challenges that need to be addressed to improve access and mobility on the North Shore. TransLink’s research and analytics team examined relevant data and used a regional transportation model (RTM) to compare different improvement scenarios and estimate travel demand for specific corridors or modes of transportation.
​

There are limited options to reduce congestion on the North Shore because of its location, topography, and reliance on two bridges and the SeaBus to connect to the rest of Metro Vancouver.

Analysis of travel patterns found several key factors that, if adequately addressed, can help improve the experience for people travelling to, from and around the North Shore, and across Burrard Inlet.

These Factors include:
  • Land use
  • The road network
  • Alternative transit options
​
  • Road demand
  • Road use management
