| Description: |
The Town of Essex is located in southwestern Ontario, approximately twenty-eight (28) kilometres southeast of the City of Windsor and is one of seven (7) lower‐tier municipalities in the County of Essex. The Town of Essex consists of four (4) distinct and unique Centres — Essex Centre, Colchester Centre, Harrow Centre and McGregor Centre. The current population of the Town of Essex is 21,216. Access to reliable transportation options is a significant challenge for residents in the Town of Essex, particularly those who live in rural areas. Improving access to transportation for residents is fundamental to improving both resident quality of life and continuity of business. Access to sustainable funding is also a significant challenge impacting both public and specialized transportation services and programs in the study area. Transportation services and programs, each with their own service areas and user groups, exist in the study area. Identifying opportunities to sustain, improve, or develop new services and programs is a key need that this study will address. The successful proponent will have demonstrated experience in similar projects. Experience working with municipalities in Ontario will be considered an asset. The Final Report is expected to be finished and delivered by no later than October 31, 2025, upon Award of Contract. Presentation of report findings to Council may take place after Final Report is delivered. |
