RV 2015: Sustainable Corridors: Broad and Specific Looks by David Leard, AICPRail~Volution
What does it mean to build a sustainable corridor? How do you honor the overall goal of conserving resources, but also engage stakeholders to develop the right type of project for their community? Take a wider look at the national perspective on building sustainable corridors. What is being done across the country to conserve resources and involve communities in these efforts? Then hear stories about a successful sustainable corridor in Portland; Albuquerque's BRT project; and an urban green plan to transform existing park-and-ride lots along Los Angeles' growing transit network into more sustainable places.

The Department of Science and Technology is working closely with the MMDA and the DPWH to alleviate Metro Manila's traffic congestion, and to develop environmentally-friendly mass transport systems.
The competitive organization cannot utilize the tactical HR Management. It requires the strategic HR Management. Today, the HR Professionals can build a significant competitive advantage for the organization. They can build complex systems, which support the execution of the business strategy. They can bring simple tools to support innovations and they can build the organization, which employs loyal employees.
However, the introduction of the strategic HR Management is not simple. The HR leader is a crucial role. The HR leader has to get the buy-in of the top management and has to lead the transformation of the HR Organization.

Open and participatory planning process is built into planning for the Capital Bikeshare system in Arlington, Virginia, with meetings and communication with civic associations and individual residents about individual sites.
BikeArlington, the Arlington County Department of Environmental Services, and Capital Bikeshare recently developed a brief document, Building Bikeshare Together, which outlines this process step by step.
Smart Fares: What if we sold transit fares like cell phone minutes?Mobility Lab
If we think of a transit trip like we do a cell-phone minute (or megabyte) we start to realize that there are many ways to package our usage. While cell-phone plans have many flavors that pertain to many different types of users, public-transit fares tend to come in variations of just two flavors: single ride or unlimited. But electronic-payment infrastructure such as Smart Cards can allow market segmentation that wasn’t possible with cash, token, or paper fare media.
Creating Better Places with Transportation Demand Management (TDM)Mobility Lab
A “transit premium” can increase property values by anywhere between a few percentage points up to more than 150 percent.
TDM focuses on shifting travelers away from single occupancy-vehicle modes like biking, walking, bus, and rail. In many cases, however, TDM solutions and programs may address only a single alternative mode, or ignore the increasing diversity in how people – particularly younger generations – are traveling.
There is strong evidence of this narrow focus occurring frequently. Residential buildings may tout their WalkScore as a measure of pedestrian-friendliness. Or a commercial building may earn a Bicycle Friendly Business’ designation from the League of American Bicyclists. While these tools and designations are certainly valuable, sustainable buildings should have an an equitable distribution of transportation options and opportunities.
Most property owners and managers (and the business leaders who operate within them) can find ways to better promote and encourage a range of multi-modal options.
My contribution to helping them do so is the Multi-Modal Transportation Score (or what I like to call ModeScore for short). It measures the total accessibility of a given building, taking into account all possible sustainable transportation modes. My overarching goal is that building users will create and embrace programs to encourage and increase alternative travel.
Building a Standard for Open Bikeshare DataMobility Lab
Should the bikeshare industry adopt an open data standard? As bikesharing spreads to more cities, having a common method for accessing and analyzing data will become more important.
Which Attributes Make a Community Successful?Mobility Lab
A presentation by Sophie Mintier and her colleagues from the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments at Mobility Lab in Arlington on February 27, 2014. This looks at the Arlington examples of Rosslyn, Shirlington, and Columbia Pike.
Capital Bikeshare’s First Mile:Last-Mile RidershipMobility Lab
In Capital Bikeshare’s 2013 customer survey, the local government regional partnership that created the service asked who made trips to and from Metro. It turns out that 54 percent of our customers do.
So how far do Capital Bikeshare customers ride to get to and from Metro and their home? Well, we had some interesting findings which include a “hot zone” of bikeshare activity surrounding Metro stations.

=== Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szeto) ===
Ever been curious about Real Estate Investing in the US?? At Volition, for the past 14 years, we have been focused on helping investors invest in over $250M of real estate and generate $100M of wealth in the Toronto market, but we are always open to learning more about other business models and learning from other investors.
The US has always been an intriguing market to invest in. But the US is a big place… if you’re interested in investing in the US, you probably have a lot of questions, like:
☑️ Specifically WHERE should you invest?
☑️ What are the best markets to invest in and why?
☑️ How much are property prices there?
☑️ What are the returns like?
☑️ What is cashflow like?
☑️ Compared to investing in Toronto or other cities in Ontario, what are the benefits / tradeoffs?
☑️ What ownership structure should I use?
☑️ What are the tax implications?
☑️ Can I get financing?
☑️ What are tenants like?
Enter Erwin Szeto, a longtime friend of Volition. Since 2005, Erwin Szeto and his team have navigated the challenging landscape of being landlords in Ontario. Now, they are shifting their focus and guiding their clients' investments toward the more landlord-friendly environment of the USA. This decision comes after assisting Canadian clients in transacting over $440,000,000 in income properties. Faced with issues like affordability constraints, tenant-friendly laws, rent control, and rental licensing in Canada, Erwin sees a clear opportunity in the U.S. Here, there is a significant influx of investments leading to the creation of high-paying manufacturing jobs. Erwin and his clients are poised to capitalize on these opportunities where landlord rights are stronger and there is no rent control.
To facilitate this transition, Erwin has partnered with and become a client of SHARE, a one-stop-shop U.S. Asset Manager. Founded by Canadians for Canadians, SHARE enables as passive an ownership experience as possible for landlords in the U.S., while still maintaining direct, 100% ownership.
Erwin is “Making Real Estate Investing Great Again”!!

Transportation Question
• Can communities support increased economic activity,
improved environmental performance and quality of life
while reducing reliance on auto travel and associated
VMT growth?
– In Arlington, the answer is yes, but it takes commitment and
continued innovation
– Transportation infrastructure investments and services must be
closely aligned with development
• Are there other ancillary community benefits?
– The reduced reliance on auto travel yields many other community
benefits: more efficient use of land, reduced environmental
impacts, lower energy use, a lower carbon footprint, improved
public health

56. Lessons Learned –
Effectiveness Coordinated Development &
Transportation Strategies
•
Arlington’s strategies have yielded substantial economic, transportation, and
environmental benefits - allowing continued growth with less reliance on auto
trips, and more use of transit and other travel options.
•
It isn’t just one policy but many that contribute to enhanced performance such as:
–
–
–
–
–
Building mixed use environments with highest densities around transit stops
Expanding viable and attractive transportation options
Making user information readily available and providing ongoing education and encouragement
Sustaining and strengthening transportation demand management (TDM)
Actively managing parking
•
Sustaining community performance requires ongoing investments in infrastructure.
•
It’s not a short term commitment - to achieve the full benefits, it requires sustaining
and enhancing programs and policies over time
•
It also requires ongoing community and institutional exposure to/and assimilation of
best practices from other communities in the US and abroad
56
57. Areas for Further Investigation
• Improve trip generation guidance for urban transit-oriented mixed
use developments and neighborhoods
• Incorporate actual site and neighborhood level performance into
regional transportation models and project selection processes
(better data, better models, improved decision-making)
• Fully account for the supply and cost of parking in transportation
and community development
• Identify and document structural changes in the environment that
would alter the assumptions about community development and
transportation system use
