Public Transport
Designing tomorrow’s public transport systems—today
Public transport systems create vital links to local destinations, and for many communities, they also represent lifelines for residents and visitors. In addition to being a sustainable transport option, public transit enhances a community’s mobility and reduces car traffic.
We believe public transport options should be flexible, reliable, and cost effective, and we design and consult on high-capacity systems for mixed traffic and exclusive lane scenarios, allowing for faster travel and more flexible routes when compared with conventional bus systems.
Looking to the future, we include sustainability measures in our projects—such as transit-adjacent cycleways—to maintain a transit line’s viability.
In every public transport project, our teams navigate and incorporate new technologies in a smart and meaningful way, look at systems holistically, and aim to provide effective, sustainable solutions that enhance the liveability, and vibrancy of your communities.
Good public transport systems contribute to community sustainability
Sustainability is key to Stantec’s purpose, promise, and values—our public transport projects demonstrate our efforts to help you protect, preserve, and restore communities and the environment. Getting people out of cars and into buses, trains, and ferries makes a significant positive impact on our environment, health, and economy. And it helps us connect with each other. We’re planning for an emissions-free future—we started by getting ourselves sorted first. In April 2023 we achieved operational carbon neutrality.
