The Government of Alberta is requesting municipal input on Bill 16, The Traffic Safety Amendment Act. The primary purpose of Bill 16 is to establish regulations related to Transportation Network Companies (TNCs). TNCs are more commonly referred to as ride-sharing services.
The proposed regulations will:
- Define “transportation network company” and related terms
- Establish the requirements all TNCs operating in Alberta must meet
- Detail how these requirements will be verified and the role of investigations
Input can be provided by sending written submissions to trans.officeoftrafficsafety@gov.ab.ca. Unfortunately, the timeline for submissions as short, as feedback will only be accepted until May 24. For an overview of Bill 16 and questions to consider when submitting feedback, see the attached issues paper provided by Alberta Transportation.
