2019 and 2020 to continue the program. By leveraging the ICIP-Public Transit grant we can maximize the funding currently identified for fleet replacement. This reduced the municipal portion required to sustain the replacement strategy. As a result, it also allowed Transit Windsor the opportunity to purchase 3 additional buses to address the increased ridership demands recently experienced over the last couple of years.

The total budget for this project is $14.17 million, including pending grant approval under the ICIP program and required municipal contribution which has already been allocated in the current capital budget.

Project #3	Implementation of Transit Windsor's Master Plan To Create and Support An Improved Overall Transit System (Phase I).
Project ID	ICIP-WIN-09

Project Scope	Project Focus
Under PTIF Phase I, Transit Windsor undertook an enterprise wide review of its services (SDR), focusing on conventional service, and development of new transit services. The objectives of this review were to improve transit efficiencies through innovation, identification and implementation of industry best practices, increase overall ridership, explore the need for regional transit models and explore rebranding of Transit Windsor's fixed assets. Public engagements took place to review the Transit Windsor brand, in addition to the service itself. There were many correlating highlights that identify the need for re-evaluating the service and the brand at the same time .	The comprehensive SDR is recommending substantial updates to the transit service. The goal for Transit Windsor will be to seamlessly implement the service improvements and changes needed to Transit's fixed assets. Transit Windsor is requested funding under the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP) to undertake the transition of its service and assets. This request represented Phase I of the transition plan. The total budget for this project is $3.88 million, including pending grant approval under the ICIP program and required municipal contribution which has already been allocated in the current capital budget.
