Consultants Loram International Ltd. concluded that a high-speed rail service potentially could be useful but that additional analyses were required. Phase II was the result: four sub-studies on modal demand, route assessment, operational costs, and financial matters. Phase III was aimed at refining the earlier results, so that a decision could be made whether or not to proceed with design, engineering and protection of right-of-way, should the government so decide. Included were studies of the route, downtown access, facilities, rolling stock, and economic and financial aspects. This presentation provides the results of all work completed to date.2016-12-12T16:29:23.157256+00:00https://open.alberta.ca/dataset/190098ce-e89b-4d3e-ba52-2acc6e9af715Strategic Transportation Infrastructure Program : guidelines2021-07-15T22:25:33.416239+00:00The objective of the program is to support municipalities in developing and maintaining key transportation infrastructure to promote economic growth and improve mobility, through strategic, project-specific investment in capital construction and rehabilitation of important local transportation infrastructure, including local and regional roads, municipal bridges, airports, and resource roads.2015-08-28T21:29:09.497857+00:00https://open.alberta.ca/dataset/b747437a-a21a-4802-80cc-1ab43e55db03Strategic Transportation Infrastructure Program2022-08-26T17:30:18.411917+00:00The Strategic Transportation Infrastructure Program (STIP) is a provincial grant funding program that provides financial assistance to rural and smaller urban municipalities to develop and maintain key local transportation infrastructure, such as local road bridges, community airports and resource roads.
