Cities can get ahead of the many AV possibilities by developing plans, thinking creatively, and collaborating with other levels of government.
Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) buses cost half compared to electric buses and have a similar fuel price as diesel. Diesel buses can be replaced 1-for-1 with RNG without compromising performance. Like diesel, RNG operates during freezing weather conditions and refuelling takes minutes, not hours. This demonstrates that municipalities can have carbon-neutral transit today without sacrificing performance, reliability or range.
These technologies will continue to evolve, connecting more vehicles to each other, to infrastructure, and to other users on the road. Avoiding undesirable outcomes and achieving the benefits of CASE vehicles in Canada will require meeting significant technical and societal challenges and will depend on how industry, consumers, and governments respond to problems and opportunities today.
While the track is now operational internally, an official grand opening event with external audiences is being planned for early spring, pending COVID-19 restrictions.
This report walks through the disruptive transit trends that exist, and the services and innovative solutions that transit riders can experience and benefit from now and in the near future.
