In February 2006, the City of Winnipeg approved a comprehensive plan of transit improvements for implementation. The improvement plan included new buses, upgraded stations, intelligent transportation system applications, transit priority measures, as well as park and ride facilities. While several of the initiatives were system-wide, others were focused on major arterial streets with high levels of transit service. These streets have been designated as "Quality Corridors". Dillon Consulting Limited was retained to study and implement the transit priority measures. This included a study of eleven Quality Corridors, modeling the traffic and transit patterns, analyzing possible transit priority measures, and implementing the recommended measures through construction. This report presents a case study of the impacts of the transit priority measures in the first three Quality Corridors of the program. For the covering abstract of this conference see ITRD number E216597.
