Thank you. comprising members of council, Durham Regional Police Services and staff from Communications Health and Works. Their commitment, collaboration and expertise have been instrumental in advancing a shared goal that no loss of life on our roads is ever acceptable. That commitment has not only shaped our work locally, but it has also garnered us national recognition, as you will hear this morning. The Durham Vision Zero 2019-2024 Strategic Road Safety Action Plan and Report Card was honoured with the 2026 Transportation Association of Canada's Road Safety Achievement Award. This award is particularly meaningful to us, as TAC represents a broad neutral form of transportation professionals across the country, which each year recognizes organizations that demonstrate outstanding technical achievement, and leadership in road safety. Today's presentation will highlight the results of that work, where we've made progress, where challenges remain, and how we continue to move forward together toward our ultimate goal of eliminating fatal and serious collisions on our roads. I will now turn it over to Amanda Spencer to present the findings from our Vision Zero Report Card, along with the next steps in the program. Thank you very much. Good morning. And thank you for the opportunity to speak with you today. The purpose of today's presentation is to present the findings of the Durham Vision Zero Report Card Evaluation, and to provide an update on the Red Light Camera Program. On A …

Thank you. All right. Thank you. And again, the key message in that report is that even though we have the pressures, we are funding that from within existing resources. We were recently, a few of us in Quebec City over the past weekend and few days, and the mayor of Quebec City gave a great initial speech talking about transit and the growth of transit. How, you know, we can't shame people into using transit. It has to be a choice, and there needs to be a variety of mobility challenges or choices for people to use. And it was really true. I mean, we do great work here at this committee in terms of advancing public transit across the region and growing service, expanding into growth areas, industrial areas, but it's still a choice. And we're a very diverse community here, and we need to continue to make sure that we're providing those options because if it is competitive, a competitive alternative, people will use us. So that's really what we're looking for moving forward. Next slide, please, Raj. Raj. here in Canada. But to that point again, ridership levels have leveled off now, and as I indicated, we're not going to talk about the U-Pass anymore, but just wanted to share that again, we are not unique or special there. That is a consistent trend across the country. And at the same regard, we have to keep in mind that, you know, our adult ridership , senior ridership, you know, they continue to increase, and that's an outcome from the expansion of the services, the investmen …

Thank you. region-wide primary cycling network or PCN for short as we call it so the PCN are the existing and planned cycling routes that provide regional connectivity and these were first defined in the 2012 regional cycling plan they had a few minor updates in the 2017 transportation master plan and then they were expanded and refined in the 2021 regional cycling plan the PCN is planned to reflect people and cyclists of all ages and abilities and reflect different types of trips such as commuting and recreation as well as user preferences across the region so I'll first provide a quick snapshot of the progress in cycling facilities and trends we encountered in 2025 so last year there were 16 kilometers of new cycling infrastructure added to regional roads on the PCN there were four intersections where cross rides and bicycle signals were installed and three pedestrian crosso vers or PXO's as they're called for short installed and one mid-block pedestrian signal so that's where the two fours come from and then I'll provide a bit more detail on these projects later in the presentation and then as part of the snapshot as well we have based on fall 2022 and spring 2023 data about nine percent of morning peak trips made by Durham residents are made using active modes of transportation this data is collected through the transportation tomorrow survey and is undertaken every five years so this is really the same number you saw last year in the report but the TTS or our transportat …

Thank you. So when you're ready. Thank you. AI-assisted redacting systems and cybersecurity to ensure our data and sensitive material remains protected. Additionally, a modern enterprise resource planning system and an enterprise asset management system are critical for governance and CS PA compliance. Since the start of my tenure in 2023, 283 officers will have been added, that is by the end of this year. Between 2010 and 2021, over a 12-year period, the DR PS added 59 net new positions. That's about five per year. And the growth wasn't consistent. From 2011 to 2017, no net new positions were added. Say that again, no net new positions were added. In fact, in 2021, the service lost two positions, resulting in an overall decline. For many years, the DRPS didn't receive enough funding to even sustain our baseline operations, which should have been the bare minimum. Make no mistake about this, this was defunding, and we are paying this price today, and we're still managing a $47 million gap as a result. By comparison, the region of Durham between 2016 and 2021, just a five-year period, added 320 new positions outside of policing, an average of 53 per year. To be clear, during that period, the same period, investments were directed to other regional services in response to the growth pressures, pressures from which the DRPS was not immune, yet comparable investments were not made in our service. Years of underfunding and limited resource allocation to the DRPS have created a per …
