AGENDA
• What am I exploring
• Why am I exploring it
• How am I exploring it
• What I expected to find, and
• Peaking into the data

WHAT AM I EXPLORING?
• The barriers to establishing Multi-Modal Transportation strategies
– Multi-Modal Transportation defined as being composed of: transit, vehicular (in combination with another mode), active transportation, park&ride, rail, air travel, horse drawn buggies, telework and delivery service1,2,3
– Move away from commuting that is solely vehicular (single passenger vehicle trips)
• Focus is on provincial, municipal, and community strategy barriers and NOT individual level barriers

WHY AM I EXPLORING IT?
• Transportation is complicated and barriers exist, it is potentially important to understand what these barriers are so we can surpass them
• It’s about choices in how we commute

HOW AM I EXPLORING IT?
• 12 key informant interviews
• Key informants working in or in relation to transportation
• Individual responsibility and mandates can be a barrier in my own research

WHAT I EXPECTED TO FIND
• Barriers that came up in the literature review:
– Built environment and infrastructure3,4,5, 6
– Lack of interdisciplinary work3,5,7,8
– Institutional9,10
– Standards and design guidelines10
– Policy barriers5
– Funding7,10
– Evidence and academic9,11

PEAK INTO THE DATA• Reoccurring themes:
– Funding
– Standards and design guidelines
– Lack of interdisciplinary work
– Built environment
• New themes emerging:– Car culture/community resilience to change
– Not all barriers are bad
– Lack of implementing projects (various reasons)
– Lack of understanding about commuting behaviour (not always felt as a barrier)
– Multi-Modal Transportation successful in urban centers and other strategies for rural communities
– Individual responsibility
