When The City of Calgary underwent a re-organization in 2002, a special group was formed within the Transportation Planning Division to look specifically at non-traditional, cost-effective urban transportation projects. The group is comprised of eight members who possess a wide range of expertise including engineering, planning, environmental science and geography. This group was aptly named the Transportation Solutions Group. Their responsibilities include: alternative transportation; bikeway/pathway planning; transportation demand management (TDM); transportation systems management (TSM); Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS); community traffic calming studies. This program was nominated for the 2002 Sustainable Urban Transportation Award.
