1 Calgary Transportation Plan Chris Blaschuk Manager, Transportation Strategy Presentation to Partners in Planning April 5, 2014
2 CTP Overview The Calgary Transportation Plan aims to make it easier to travel around the city on foot, by bicycle, on the bus or by car, as our population grows. Key Points: Long-range plan CTP aims to maintain automobile, commercial goals and emergency vehicle mobility in Calgary while placing increased emphasis on sustainable modes of transportation More choices for getting around Calgary with comfortable, safe, walkable streets designed for all users Strategic investment in transportation infrastructure to achieve goals and policies of CTP (Part 2)
3 A Fast Growing City ,000 ha ,300 ha ,600 ha ,100 ha , , , , ,100,000
4 Calgary
5 Calgary Now add another 1.3 million people
6 Demographic Shifts Calgary s population is changing: Ageing of baby boomers 1333% increase in people 85+ over next 60 years Less growth in younger generations (workforce) Growth reliant on international immigration in 20 years Means changes in the way we live and travel
7 Emerging Growth Pressures Calgary has the largest per capita footprint in Canada energy consumption makes up 56% of Calgary s footprint.
8 Global Energy Demand Rates of supply growth out to 2050 could boost energy production by 50% Includes 20% savings from energy efficiencies Still leaves a gap of around 400 EJ/a the size of the whole energy industry in Shell February 2011
9 Staying competitive To the extent that western Canadians get this [density supported by public transit] right we will be ahead of our international competitors; to the extent that we get it wrong, we will fall behind in the race to sustain economic prosperity and the quality of life to which it contributes. Canada West Foundation March 10, 2009
10 Capital Cost Comparison NOTE: All forms of growth still incur new costs 33% less
11 Annual Operating Cost Comparison 14% less
