Abstract

In 1980, the Capital Region Transit System was formed through Agreements between the CRD, UTA and MTOC. Under this new organization, the CRD is responsible for setting fares, planning services and local funding. The CRD began work in 1970 on the development of an ongoing transit planning program to ensure that efficient and effective transit services are provided. This program is structured according to three distinct levels of planning activity--Strategic Plans, Service Plans and Operations Plans. For the Strategic Plan many techniques were adapted from the Regional Transportation Planning program. Following approval of the Strategic Plan, analytical techniques and a system monitoring procedure have been developed. These techniques are now being implemented to facilitate the development of detailed Service Plans.
