GreenTRIP program - questions & = answers

  1. How was the GreenTRIP program developed? =

The Alberta government announced GreenTRIP in July 2008. Government = has used=20 the time since to consult with stakeholders such as the Alberta = Association of=20 Municipal Districts and Counties; Alberta Urban Municipalities = Association;=20 Calgary Regional Partnership; Capital Region Board; Central Alberta = Economic=20 Partnership; City of Calgary; City of Edmonton; and the Strategic = Transportation=20 Advisory Council (a committee made up of public and private sector=20 transportation representatives who advise Alberta Transportation on=20 transportation issues affecting Alberta=92s economy). Government also = reviewed the=20 transit plans developed by the Capital Region Board and the Calgary = Regional=20 Partnership.

The consultations and reviews helped government develop the program = details=20 to best serve both the needs of the stakeholders and advance government=20 priorities in meeting Alberta=92s future public transit needs. =  

  1. Which groups are eligible to apply for GreenTRIP funding?=20

The program is available to owner/operators of public transit = services, which=20 may include municipalities, regional entities, non-profit organizations, = M=E9tis=20 settlements and the private sector. (Ineligible applicants include = individuals,=20 federal government departments or agencies and First Nations, which are = under=20 federal jurisdiction.)

  1. How will GreenTRIP funding be divided among=20 municipalities?

The total GreenTRIP fund budget is $2 billion. For municipalities = that make=20 up the Capital region area, the initial reserve will be $800 million (40 = per=20 cent). The initial reserve for municipalities that make up the Calgary = region=20 area will also be $800 million (40 per cent). This allocation is = appropriate to=20 meet the public transit needs of Alberta=92s two largest urban areas, = which=20 include many surrounding communities. Other municipalities outside the = Edmonton=20 and Calgary regions will have access to an initial reserve of $400 = million (20=20 per cent) of the total $2-billion in GreenTRIP funding, and this same = pool of=20 funding can also be used for provincial priority projects.

  1. How will the funding be paid out?

GreenTRIP is a multi-year program, with funding to be =93paid on = progress.=94=20 This means the money will be distributed as a project progresses rather = than=20 being provided up front.

  1. What is the timeline for sending in submissions for = GreenTRIP=20 funding?

There will be two rounds of applications. The first round will be = accepted up=20 to November 30, 2010. (It is anticipated that project approvals for the = first=20 round will be announced by Feb. 28, 2011). Based on stakeholder = feedback, a=20 second round of applications will be held because some stakeholders = indicated=20 they may need additional time to prepare their plans and business case. = The=20 second round will be called in spring 2011.

  • planning for and acquisition of transit or commuter rail = corridors;=20
  • park and ride facilities (as a component of a larger transit = project=20 submission);=20
  • construction of bus terminals;=20
  • purchase of public transit vehicles (e.g., LRT vehicles, hybrid = buses,=20 accessible buses, etc.); and=20
  • installation of transit intelligent transportation system = components.=20
  1. What are the funding guidelines for projects? =

Project submissions will be assessed on a competitive basis, in part = to the=20 extent they advance Alberta government priorities as well as local or = regional=20 transportation priorities. Each submission must include a solid business = case=20 that demonstrates appropriate cost-sharing and a clear commitment to = sustain the=20 operations of the project once it is in place. Applicants must = contribute
a=20 minimum of one-third of the capital cost of their project.

  1. Project submissions must demonstrate that a project can = help=20 advance government priorities. What are these priorities?=20
The Alberta government=92s priorities = include:=20

  • implementing the 20-year Strategic Capital Plan;=20
  • investing in priority projects that contribute to a safe and = world-class=20 transportation system that supports regional and provincial economic=20 development and provides Alberta with some of the most advanced = infrastructure=20 in North America;=20
  • supporting the province=92s return to prosperity and creating a = strong=20 foundation for continued economic strength;=20
  • implementing the provincial Land-use Framework, which supports = regional=20 planning for key infrastructure, such as transit; and=20
  • advancing the province=92s climate change strategy by getting cars = off roads=20 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
  1. Are municipalities responsible for their own transit = services?=20

Yes. Transit is a municipal responsibility and that does not change. = It is up=20 to municipalities to identify their transportation priorities, develop = transit=20 policies and plans, and operate and maintain their own transit services. =

  1. Can municipalities use Alberta government grants or = federal funds=20 as the municipal share?

Yes. Municipalities can use other provincial municipal capital grants = or=20 funding from other partners (e.g., federal government or private sector) = as part=20 of their cost share.

  1. How does GreenTRIP fit with Alberta=92s climate change = strategy?=20

GreenTRIP is a good example of how the province is investing in green = initiatives that will help contribute to Alberta=92s plan to reduce = greenhouse gas=20 emissions. The emphasis of GreenTRIP will be to support regional = transportation=20 initiatives that make public transit more accessible to Albertans, = reduce the=20 number of vehicles on Alberta=92s roads and reduce greenhouse gas = emissions. The=20 Alberta government will continue to take advantage of opportunities to = foster=20 Alberta=92s growth in a responsible, environmentally-conscious way.

  1. What is the process involved to send in a submission for=20 GreenTRIP?

Applicants must complete a GreenTRIP submission form. This will = include=20 providing a comprehensive business case and detailed information about = how the=20 project will achieve GreenTRIP=92s goals.
