Public transit has many benefits to people, the environment, and the sustainability of cities. The capital area of PEI has seen a significant increase in ridership in recent years and there is a need to update the Public Transit Strategic Plan to guide the next stages of development and operation of public transit. The future of public transit looks very different than the past. As an example, the Capital Area Transit Coordinating Committee representing Charlottetown, Cornwall, and Stratford, with support from provincial and federal governments, are working towards transit electrification.
Input from the public is crucial to this new transit plan. Consultants from Left Turn Right Turn have been hired to lead this plan update. Public and stakeholder input is a key deliverable and engagement opportunities are rolling out. Virtual and in-person community consultation sessions were held this fall. Check back here for updates on the next engagement opportunities as we will be reaching out for public input on the draft plan.
