The public sessions are being ar-
ranged by the Greater Vancouver
Regional District, which is working
with the task force in association
with the province.

Composed of public and private
sector representatives, the task
force will look at all modes of
transportation including highways,
air, marine, rail and transit.

One of its key responsibilities is
to draft a list of immediate and
future priorities.

The task force will also consider
transportation demands resulting
from growth and change in the
region's population as well as the
impact from centres where signifi-
cant employment growth is antici-
Pated.

How transportation improve-
ments themselves can influence
growth and development will also
be studied, as will funding options.

A process by which all levels of
government can work together to
carry out priority improvements
and determine future priorities is
also required.
