  • City Council Work Session Agenda Section Work Session Meeting Date April 5, 2021
    CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION AGENDA SECTION WORK SESSION MEETING DATE APRIL 5, 2021 ITEM: BUS RAPID TRANSIT (BRT) LINES DEPARTMENT: Public Works BY/DATE: Kevin Hansen/April 1, 2021 CITY STRATEGY: (please indicate areas that apply by adding a bold “X” in front of the selected text below) X_Safe Community _Diverse, Welcoming “Small-Town” Feel _Economic Strength _Excellent Housing/Neighborhoods _Equity and Affordability X_Strong Infrastructure/Public Services _Opportunities for Play and Learning _Engaged, Multi-Generational, Multi-Cultural Population BACKGROUND: ‘NetworkNext’ is a 20-year plan initiated by Metro Transit for expanding and improving the bus network serving the metro area. Transit improvements under consideration include improved local and express routes, integrated shared mobility options, and new arterial bus rapid transit (BRT) lines. Bus rapid transit (BRT) provides an improved customer experience with frequent service and faster trips in our the Metro’s busiest bus corridors. Metro Transit first studied a dozen potential BRT lines in 2011-2012. This study led to the implementation of the METRO A Line in 2016 and the METRO C Line in 2019. Metro Transit has reported both lines have been very successful in increasing ridership and customers satisfaction. In 2020 and 2021, Metro Transit engaged the public to help identify the Metro’s next BRT priorities. Each step was based on four principles that guided the planning process for BRT, rooted in public engagement, Metropolitan Council transit policy, and the performance of the bus network: Advance equity and reduce regional racial disparities Build on success to grow ridership Design a network that supports a transit-oriented lifestyle Ensure the long-term sustainable growth of the bus network In February 2021, following months of analysis and community engagement, Metro Transit finalized recommendations for the next expansions in the BRT network: The METRO F Line will serve the Central Avenue corridor, modifying Route 10 from downtown Minneapolis to Northtown Mall via Central and University avenues.

  • Potomac Yard
    Alexandria Transit Vision Plan – POTOMAC YARD The Potomac Yard community is generally located in northeastern Alexandria along Richmond Highway, between Slaters Lane and Four Mile Run. It is currently served by one Metrobus route (Metroway), and two DASH routes (AT-9 and AT-10). For Potomac Yard, the key changes for the 2030 ATV Network include: • AT-9 replaced by the “N8”. The existing AT-9 will be replaced by the new “N8” route with all-day, frequent service from the new Potomac Yard Metro to Arlandria, Shirlington, Mark Center, the West End and Van Dorn Metro. Route will operate every 15 minutes or better, seven days per week, providing significant improvements in transit access for Potomac Yard residents and businesses. • New “N6 route with direct connection to Old Town Alexandria. The new “N6” route will run between Potomac Yard and Old Town Alexandria (King/Washington) via Slater Lane and Old Town North. The direct connection between the new Potomac Yard Metrorail and the heart of Old Town Alexandria will run every 30 minutes, seven days per week. • DASH AT-10 stays the same. The AT-10 route will maintain its current alignment and service levels between Potomac Yard, Del Ray and King Street Metro. • Metroway remain the same. The 2030 network maintains the existing Metroway route at existing levels of service. What can I access via transit in 30 minutes from Potomac Yard at 12pm in 2030? Existing Network 2030 Network % Change Residents 64,272 87,571 +36% Jobs 63,878 88,351 +38% (See reverse side for www.dashbus.com/transitvision more information.) For Potomac Yard, the key changes for the 2022 ATV Network include: • AT-9 replaced by the “N8”.
