29. Develop transportation solutions and fare systems that entice students. 30. Institute a program of bus bay construction in view of the new legislation giving right-ofway to buses at intersections. The program needs to be given a higher priority to roads with a large number of buses. 31. Provide adequate funding to maintain the current service level (quantity and quality), and to keep fare increases below the cost-of-living index. 32. Address bus breakdown incidents within the large service area through such measures as provision of satellite garages or mobile repair units, or entering into agreements with private maintenance operators. 33. Improve integration with the VIA rail station 34. Continue to review the service to ensure that the service is meeting community needs. 35. Give full consideration to the City’s Transit Accessibility Plan. Trucks 36. Designate the Maley Drive extension as a major east-west truck route, thereby reducing heavy truck traffic on other roads including LaSalle Boulevard. 37. Improve liaison with industry to address such issues as operational problems and future infrastructure needs in a timely manner. 38. Improve enforcement of weight restrictions. Land Use Policies 39. Focus on compact, mixed-use development at strategic locations to reduce reliance on the automobile. 40. Review development proposals to ensure that there are adequate bicycle/walking links, and adequate road network to facilitate efficient transit routing so that all dwellings in the development are within 400 metres walking distance of a bus stop. 41. Use TransCAD combined with other techniques to review and approve all major developments when traffic impacts extend beyond the localized area. 42. For new road corridors and existing corridors that have been identified for future widening, Greater Sudbury should consider the ultimate property requirements for the recommended projects when reviewing and approving development plans affecting these projects.

Data Collection and Monitoring 43. Develop and implement a cordon count program to be undertaken at least every 5 years. 44. Undertake a home interview survey every 5 years at the same time as the cordon count. 45. Update the travel demand-forecasting model every 5 years after completion of the cordon count and home interview survey. 46. Develop a set of transportation performance monitoring statistics based on available data (e.g. vehicle-kilometre traveled) to ensure that the transportation policies and objectives outlined in the Official Plan are meeting their goals.
