TransLink Phase 2 Investment Plan

David led a system wide bus network performance review, identified service expansion projects and public consultation needs for TransLink’s 2018-2027 (Phase 2) Investment Plan development of the Bus Service Expansion Definition in TransLink's Phase 2 Investment Plan. Specific components of this project included:

  • Led the Network Performance Review of the entire TransLink bus network which includes over 200 bus routes and 1,600 transit buses

  • Developed criteria to define and evaluate potential service expansion projects by route and by service subregion

  • Developed recommended service expansion projects to address critical overcrowding, service to new communities, expanding night bus service and adding two new B-Line bus rapid transit services, which totaled 400,000 new annual service hours

  • Developed service hour cost estimates and fleet requirements

  • Supported elected official and public engagement

  • The Phase 2 Investment Plan was approved by the Mayors' Council and the TransLink Board on June 2018. Service expansion from this plan will commence in early 2020.
