Smaller, rural and newly incorporated municipalities experiences challenges to offer low-cost, accessible and sustainable travel options to their residents, which is largely due to the unavailability of data and models to make evidence-based policies and infrastructure investment decisions. The goal of this project is to collect data and develop innovative econometric models and simulation tools to understand the travel behaviour of rural residents and quantify vehicular emissions for alternative transportation and land use scenarios. This project will develop models and case studies for the City of West Kelowna (CoWK). The specific objectives will be to: 1) investigate travel activities including examining the travel of rural population in-general such as where and how they travel, and the travel analysis of crucial age-cohorts such as younger and older adults, 2) explore demand for alternative modes including demand for transit for the pre-, during-, and post-pandemic periods, and demand for walking/biking, and 3) analyze the transport level of service and emissions impacts of a major revitalization plan at the urban core which includes the assessing the impacts of neighbourhood-level changes such as mixed land use developments, and corridor-level changes such as adding bike lanes and transit stops. The CoWK will use these results to develop alternative land use and transport investment plans such as identifying areas requiring walk/bike and transit infrastructure to ensure equitable access to alternative modes for all age cohorts and reduce their carbon footprint.

较小，农村和新成立的市政当局经历了为居民提供低成本，可访问和可持续的旅行选择的挑战，这在很大程度上是由于数据和模型无法做出基于证据的政策和基础设施投资决策。该项目的目的是收集数据并开发创新的计量经济学模型和仿真工具，以了解农村居民的旅行行为，并量化车辆排放量，以替代替代运输和土地使用情况。该项目将为西尔洛纳市（Cowk）开发模型和案例研究。具体目标将是：1）调查旅行活动，包括检查农村人口的旅行，例如何地旅行，如何旅行，以及对年龄段和老年人等关键年龄段的旅行分析，2）探索对替代模式的需求，包括对前，期间和后期的范围以及对流行阶段以及对流动/班级的范围以及分析和分析的范围的需求，以及分析和分析的级别的需求。城市核心包括评估邻居级别变化的影响，例如混合土地使用的发展，以及走廊级别的变化，例如增加自行车道和过境站。 Cowk将使用这些结果来制定替代性土地使用和运输投资计划，例如识别需要步行/自行车和过境基础设施的区域，以确保所有年龄段的替代模式的公平访问权限并减少其碳足迹。
