Shared Mobility - Shuttle Service

Markham Centre represents the City’s long-term vision for a vibrant downtown, combining mixed-use retail, residential, and office spaces, alongside the new York University campus set to open in 2024. Prioritizing sustainable, efficient, and equitable transportation for all travelers to and from this hub is crucial. The City of Markham's first and last mile challenge for the OVIN Demonstration Zone invites innovative solutions to enhance mobility for workers, residents, students, and visitors. 

By demonstrating shared mobility options—such as shuttles connecting YorkU Markham campus to transit hubs—we aim to enhance transportation accessibility in Markham.

Purpose:

Test shared-mobility solution as a means to solve the first/last mile challenge for businesses and institutions in Markham Centre.

Expected Outcomes:
  • Determine viability, adoption and customer satisfaction for shared-mobility service
  • Study increase in ridership and decrease in commute time for riders
