Green Transportation Working Group Report

Ingrid and Alex continue to move this group forward. We are working to further clarify our mission statement and define clearly our objectives and deliverables. That document remains a draft and is in a state of flux. We have broad agreement on our mission which can be summarized as follows.

The ECA Green Transportation WG’s objective is to work with the community to assure that green transportation can be used to meet the needs of the citizens of Etobicoke.

  1. Transportation Safety – The ability for all green transportation options to  be accessed safely and equitably.
  2. Public transit – zero emission fleet, ensuring that public transit is a realistic solution for all residents.
  3. Walking and Rolling – Making sure that our streets and neighbourhoods encourage people to use walking, cycling, skateboards, scooters, etc. as a key part of their transportation. 
  4. Zero Emission Vehicles – We need to define strategies to incentivize manufactures, purchasers, and infrastructure providers to expedite the rollout of ZEVs.
  5. Scalability – We need to assure that research and manufacturing capabilities are scaled up.

Specific objectives and deliverables are being defined. Key efforts include communication and data gathering. Stay tuned.

All, Green Transportation
