  • Initial Transit Agency Outreach Summary

    Initial Transit Agency Outreach Summary

    Memorandum SRF No. 12758 To: Cole Hiniker, AICP Metropolitan Council From: Joseph Kapper, AICP SRF Consulting Group Date: May 20, 2020 Subject: Metropolitan Council Service Allocation Study Initial Transit Agency Outreach Summary Executive Summary Introduction One of the first tasks associated with the Service Allocation Study involved a report on existing conditions for transit service within the Minneapolis – St. Paul region. In addition to documenting the scope of transit service and socioeconomic data, the consultant team conducted outreach to each transit provider to understand the scope of their services and gain general input on the study. In March and April of 2020 several video and tele-conferences were held with individuals responsible for service monitoring, planning, and allocation at each agency. The content of each meeting included the following topics: • Offering an overview of the Service Allocation Study and gathering initial feedback on work to date and potential successful outcomes. • Transit agencies provide a summary of their current services. • How are transit operating resources allocated today? o How does the agency currently approach service allocation decisions? o What policies currently exist to guide service expansion or reduction? o Are there separate performance guidelines or goals for different types of service? • Agency planning and service development priorities. As of this memo’s completion, interviews have been conducted with Metro Transit, Minnesota Valley Transit Authority, SouthWest Transit, the City of Plymouth, Maple Grove Transit, and Metropolitan Transportation Services. Prior to each stakeholder interview, the consultant team reviewed the transit services currently offered by each agency, as well as relevant survey results, internal procedures, and long-range planning documents provided for the purposes of this study.

  • Committee Report Transportation Committee

    Committee Report Transportation Committee

    Committee Report Business Item No. 2019-180 Transportation Committee For the Metropolitan Council meeting of August 28, 2019 Subject: Southwest Light Rail Transit (Green Line Extension) Systems Contract Award Proposed Action That the Metropolitan Council (Council) authorize the Regional Administrator to award and execute a contract 17P000 for Systems Construction for the Southwest LRT Project (SWLRT) to Aldridge Parsons, a Joint Venture, for $194,411,000.00, contingent upon receipt of Letter of No Prejudice (LONP) from the Federal Transit Administration and approval of the LONP work from Hennepin County. Summary of Committee Discussion/Questions SWLRT Project Director Jim Alexander presented this item. Atlas-Ingebretson asked how we ensure our contractors are meeting our communication standards. Alexander responded that late last week our contractor LMJV distributed fliers regarding upcoming construction they would be performing and unfortunately the fliers had incorrect information and there were issues with delivery. Alexander continued that going forward, the SWLRT Project Office will review all communications and discuss the delivery prior to issuing to the community. Sterner stated that he’s heard about disruption to bicyclists because of construction. Alexander stated that yes, there is disruption due to the construction work and the detours are required to get in/out of downtown Minneapolis, but that staff is continually working with local jurisdictions and gathering comments from trail users to refine detours as needed. Cummings asked if there is a consequence for not meeting DBE goals. Alexander said that the contractor is required to meet the DBE goal and the Office of Equal Opportunity (OEO) continuously reviews the contractor’s progress to determine consistency with the DBE commitment.
