SeaBus Route Summary
Population:
Number of people living within 800 meters from the SeaBus terminals at Waterfront Station and Lonsdale Quay (2015 Base Year estimates, Pitney Bowes).
Employment:
Number of people working within 800 meters from the SeaBus terminals at Waterfront Station and Lonsdale Quay (2015 Canada Business Points, Pitney Bowes).
One-Way Route Length:
The distance between the Waterfront Station and Lonsdale Quay SeaBus terminals.
Annual Boardings:
Annual Boardings = [Boardings for the given calendar year]
Boarding data is collected from the turnstiles at both SeaBus terminals for all sailings. This offers a comprehensive and accurate data set, and no ridership projections are used for SeaBus.
Average Boardings per Day Type:
Average Daily Boardings = [Boardings for the given calendar year by day type] / [Number of days (day-type) per year]
Annual Service Cost:
Annual Service Cost = [Annual Revenue Hours] x [Average Cost per Service Hour]
For the purpose of this report, the average cost per service hour is defined as follows:
• Average cost per service hour – SeaBus: $959
Note:
The values used in this 2015 SeaBus Service Performance Review represent the latest figures determined in collaboration with TransLink Finance. These values have been utilized to refine cost estimates between 2011 and 2015. The performance review utilizes a unified cost for all five years to remove external variations, such as inflation and gas prices, which are out of the scope of this review.

Annual Revenue Hours:
This includes total running time and recovery time, but does not include deadheading.
Cost per Boarded Passenger:
Cost per Boarded Passenger = [Annual Service Cost] / [Annual Boardings]
Average Boardings per Revenue Hour:
Average Boardings per Revenue Hour = [Annual Boardings] / [Annual Revenue Hours]
Peak Passenger Load (Bi-directional Average):
Because the SeaBus as a direct service with only two stops, the number of boarded passengers for each sailing is the same as the ‘Peak Load’ of the given trip.
• Peak loads are weighted using the annual revenue hours allocated for the given period, as shown in the following example:
• Average Peak Passenger Load between 6:00 and 7:00 AM would be: 36,941/439 = 84 passengers.
• This process was followed for every scheduled hour of service in the September Sheet of the given year to obtain the ‘Peak Passenger Load’.
Peak Load Factor (Vehicle Occupancy):
Peak Load Factor = [Average Peak Load] / [Vehicle Capacity]
• Average Peak Load is obtained from the previous calculation and divided over the capacity of the SeaBus; for example:
• From the previous calculation, the average Peak Load between 6:00 am and 7:00 am = 84 passengers / 385 spaces = 22%
Service Changes since 2010:
Comments regarding service changes implemented between December 13, 2010, and December 20, 2015, are included. Service changes implemented after December 20, 2015, are not included and will be addressed in the next version of this report.

Additional Service for Special Events in 2015:
To accommodate additional anticipated demand for special events, additional SeaBus sailings are occasionally added throughout the year. Comments indicate special events and their respective schedule modification for which additional SeaBus sailings were added in 2015.
Historical Linear Trend:
Slope of the linear trend (line of best fit for all points in the chart).
Ridership Trend Chart (Annual Boardings):
Visual representation of annual boardings, calculated using the same procedure as item 4 (above).
Annual Revenue Hours:
Total number of revenue hours budgeted for the given period of time.
Average Trips per Hour:
Average number of trips per hour does not take into consideration hours with no scheduled service. For example, the SeaBus does not run between 01:30 and 06:00 on weekdays, but makes one final trip just after 01:00 in each direction. Therefore, the average for the time period between 01:00 and 06:00 displays as 1 trip per hour.
Average Boardings per Hour:
The average boardings per hour are weighted using annual revenue hours as follows:
• Average Boardings per Hour between 6:00 and 7:00 AM would be: 147,8115 / 439 = 337 Average Boardings per Trip:
Same procedure as item 11 (Peak Passenger Load) just averaged looking at the corresponding time period for the given schedule period . The average is weighted using annual revenue hours, similar to the other metrics. Average Peak Load Factor: Same procedure as item 11 averaged looking at the corresponding time period for the given schedule period . The average is weighted using annual revenue hours, similar to the other metrics.

Average Peak Passenger Load (by Direction):
Peak passenger loads (boardings) for each trip were averaged using the number of trips per hour as shown in the following example:
• Average Peak Passenger Loads between 6:00 and 8:00 would be:
= NB / SB (109 / 134)
2015 Capacity (Hourly Passenger Volume and Capacity):
Capacity = [SeaBus Capacity] x [Trips per Hour]
Capacity is calculated for each clock hour based on the number of scheduled trips for the given direction departing in that hour. Capacity is 385 passengers for all vessels.
2011/2015 Volume (Hourly Passenger Volume and Capacity):
Volume = [Average Boardings per Trip] x [Trips per Hour]
Volume is calculated for each clock hour based on the average boardings per trip for the given hour and direction.

Rail Line Summaries
Expo & Millennium Line Note: For the purposes of this report, the Expo and Millennium Lines are presented as a single line with two branches. This format was selected due to their blended service patterns. The Expo and Millennium Lines are broken into the following segments for the purposes of reporting:
• Mainline (combined service): Waterfront to Columbia • Expo Line Branch: Columbia to King George • Millennium Line Branch: Columbia to VCC–Clark
Line Length:
Line Length (one-way) = [Length of Mainline] + [Length of Branch 1] + [Length of Branch 2]
Average Speed:
Average Speed = [Line Length] / [Average End-to-End Travel Time]
Annual Station Entries:
Annual Station Entries = [Station entries for the given calendar year]
Average Station Entries per Day Type:
• For Canada Line, average daily station entries were calculated using Automatic Passenger Counter data for the complete calendar year.
o Average Daily Station Entries = [Annual station entries for the given calendar year by day type] / [Number of days (day-type) per year]
• For Expo/Millennium Line, no data is available. • For West Coast Express, average daily station entries data was collected from manual counts
conducted at Waterfront Station during the September schedule period for each year.
Annual Service Car-Hours:
Number of hours of service that rail cars provide along the line. One service car-hour is equal to one rail car in operation for one hour.
