TRANSPORTATION FUNDING OUTREACH - JANUARY 2020 POLLING Mike Luken gave an update of where we are at with regard to the South Placer funding strategy outreach efforts as directed by the Board and made by possible through AB 1413. Luken addressed the steps and key dates in bringing a transportation funding measure to the voters in November 2020. One of the steps was conducting a second survey in January 2020. Luken said that based on the results of this last survey, it is being recommended that the City of Lincoln, City of Rocklin, and City of Roseville be included in the South Placer County District “District”. It is further recommended that the Town of Loomis be excluded from the District given the unfavorable support of a potential transportation sales tax measure. Luken introduced Curt Below, FM3 Research, who provided a presentation on these survey results.

  • 7.2 Transit Lines
    User Guide and Model Documentation for SACSIM19 – June 2020 Transit Lines The major fixed route transit services in the SACOG region are explicitly represented in the transit networks as “lines”, or series of stops served by a transit vehicle at a specified service frequency. Table 7-1 provides a listing of the operators included. Each line operating on a fixed (or largely fixed) route, and with a published schedule, is coded into the SACSIM transit networks. 7.2.1 Transit Service Periods SACSIM fixed-route transit considers five different service periods: • Period 1, spanning from 5:00am until 9:00am • Period 2, from 9:00am until 3:00pm • Period 3, from 3:00pm until 6:00pm • Period 4, from 6:00pm until 8:00pm • Period 5, from 8:00pm until 11:00pm By breaking up transit service into these periods, SACSIM aims to accurately represent how transit service varies throughout the day, e.g.: • Transit availability and frequency differences throughout the day • How transit is affected by changes in highway traffic congestion throughout the day 7.2.2 Transit Line Attributes Table 7-2 provides a listing of the key variables coded for each transit line. • The NAME of the line. o For lines existing in the base year, the first 4 characters refer to the operator name: . AMTR – Amtrak Capitol Corridor service . AUBT – Auburn Transit . CSUS – California State University Sacramento Hornet Shuttle . ELDO – El Dorado Transit . ETRN – E-Tran, in Elk Grove . FOLS – Folsom Stage Line . PLAC – Placer County Transit . RSVL – Roseville Transit . SCTL – South County Link (serving south Sacramento County) .

First, transit provides an opportunity for substantially torized (i.e., bicycling and walking) systems in the region; reducing VMT, through shifts from low-occupancy modes the second section describes past performance of the like driving alone to a very high occupancy mode of travel. transit and non-motorized systems and future performance Second, for commute trips, which tend to occur at peak with the implementation of this MTP/SCS; the third section periods of travel demand when congestion is highest, tran- focuses on transit system productivity under this MTP/SCS. sit can provide substantial congestion relief. High quality transit service can also provide necessary mobility for both transit-dependent and choice riders, and residents and employees in higher density, mixed use areas where auto travel can be impractical. Like fuel prices, transit fares have gone from a trend line of relative stability in real terms to significant spikes in recent years. Operators increase fares to offset operating revenues lost from other sources.

    January 11, 2018 Mr. Ezequiel Castro, Acting Chief Division of Rail and Mass Transportation Office of State Transit Programs and Plans (MS 39) P.O. Box 942874 Sacramento, CA 94274-0001 Subject: Submittal: Capitol Corridor Joint Powers Authority Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program Grant Application for the Northern California Corridor Enhancement Program Dear Mr. Castro: As one of the three California Intercity Passenger Rail (CA IPR) managing agencies, the Capitol Corridor Joint Powers Authority (CCJPA) is pleased to present our 2018 Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program (TIRCP) grant application entitled The Northern California Corridor Enhancement Program. The CCJPA’s Northern California Corridor Enhancement Program proposes three subprojects. CCJPA is not alone in presenting these subprojects –each one is built upon critical peer agency partnerships. In combination and independently, these projects significantly reduce Vehicle Miles Travelled (VMT) and GHG emissions while enhancing the quality of life for all Californians. The subprojects are: . Sacramento to Roseville Third Track Phase 2 and SR 51 Widening . Oakland to San Jose Service Expansion Phase 2A . Statewide Integrated Travel Program Sacramento to Roseville Third Track Phase 2 and SR 51 Widening With the first phase of the Sacramento to Roseville Third Main Track funded and underway, the CCJPA is prepared, along with Caltrans District 3, to seek pre-construction funding for the second phase of the SR3T Project and the widening of SR 51 (Cap City Freeway). These related sub-projects have co-joined physical elements (rebuilt rail bridges across a widened SR 51) where working together will provide for project efficiencies. Cost savings will accrue for both of these regionally significant (and shared travel market) transportation sub- projects.
