1 Modeling the impacts of new border crossing corridor in Windsor, Ontario (Congestion, Accessibility and Emissions) Presenter: Shakil Khan Co-authors: Hanna Maoh and William Anderson, Cross-Border Institute, University of Windsor 5 th International Urban Freight Conference (I-NUF) October 08-10, 2103 Long Beach, California
2 Background Windsor-Detroit Corridor (Ambassador Bridge) Handles about 27% of Canada s surface trade Daily Trade value ~ $ 400 Million Avg. Daily Truck Crossing in 2012 (Both Directions) ~ 6800 Busiest Freight Crossing in the world 2
3 Background Windsor-Detroit Corridor: Ontario Crossing Total Truck Crossings (2012) (Both Direction) Niagara (Queenston Bridge) 344,753 Fort Erie ( Peace Bridge) 602,915 Sarnia ( Blue Water Bridge) 797,915 Windsor(Ambassador Bridge) 2,506,660 Source: Statistics Canada and OPBA,
4 Background Windsor-Essex Parkway (WEP): is currently being constructed to facilitate a new crossborder corridor between Canada the United States through Windsor, Ontario is Ontario s single most significant infrastructure investment will connect Highway-401 (Hwy401) in southwest Ontario to Interstate- 75 in Detroit, Michigan, through a new international bridge on the Detroit is a six-lane controlled access freeway facility that consists of eleven tunnels and service roads. Adapted from DRICS,
5 Adapted from DRICS, 2008 WEP is westward extension of Highway 401, one of the busiest highways in North America Impacts of Windsor-Essex Parkway Project 5

7 Background Source: MapQuest,
8 Objectives: To assess the impacts of the WEP on the region s transportation network in terms of changes in the levels of : Traffic congestion Location accessibility Environmental emissions 8
9 Methods of Analysis Project population and employment spatial distribution for the period Predict associated travel demand for passenger and commercial vehicles Predict Cross Border travel demand Employ a Simulation Approach to assess future impacts 9
10 Methods of Analysis Simulate region wide traffic flow patterns under different border crossing regimes Scenario 0 (AMB 100, No WEP) Scenario 1 (AMB100) Scenario 2 (AMB50) Scenario 3 (AMB0) Scenarios 1, 2, and 3 all assume that the Windsor-Essex Parkway is part of the region s transportation network 10

24 PM 2.5 (kg) Results cnt d Traffic Emissions -Year 2031 Comparison of Hourly PM2.5 Estimates for Heavy Commercial Vehicles AMB100 (Without WEP) AMB100(With WEP) AMB Hour 24
25 Conclusions The differences in all indicators are greatest between the base scenario (without the Parkway) and all three Parkway scenarios Reductions in System Wide Emission are estimated to range between 17-22% if the WEP becomes operational (i.e. AMB100 No WEP and AMB100 WEP) Particulate matter PM 2.5 (brake and Tire) saving is estimated at 22% between AMB100 No WEP and AMB100 WEP. Parkway / Bridge project has the potential to reduce total regional pollution emissions by more than one fifth. WEP will have a substantial impact on all aspects of the regional transportation system. 25
