    PORT AUTHORITY OF ALLEGHENY COUNTY LIGHT RAIL TRANSIT V.4.0 7/20/18 STATION DESIGN GUIDELINES ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Port Authority of Allegheny County (PAAC) provides public transportation throughout Pittsburgh and Allegheny County. The Authority’s 2,600 employees operate, maintain, and support bus, light rail, incline, and paratransit services for approximately 200,000 daily riders. Port Authority is currently focused on enacting several improvements to make service more efficient and easier to use. Numerous projects are either underway or in the planning stages, including implementation of smart card technology, real-time vehicle tracking, and on-street bus rapid transit. Port Authority is governed by an 11-member Board of Directors – unpaid volunteers who are appointed by the Allegheny County Executive, leaders from both parties in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and Senate, and the Governor of Pennsylvania. The Board holds monthly public meetings. Port Authority’s budget is funded by fare and advertising revenue, along with money from county, state, and federal sources. The Authority’s finances and operations are audited on a regular basis, both internally and by external agencies. Port Authority began serving the community in March 1964. The Authority was created in 1959 when the Pennsylvania Legislature authorized the consolidation of 33 private transit carriers, many of which were failing financially. The consolidation included the Pittsburgh Railways Company, along with 32 independent bus and inclined plane companies. By combining fare structures and centralizing operations, Port Authority established the first unified transit system in Allegheny County. Participants Port Authority of Allegheny County would like to thank agency partners for supporting the Light Rail Transportation Station Guidelines, as well as those who participated by dedicating their time and expertise.

  • I. INTRODUCTION Allegheny County Economic Development (ACED
    West Busway TOD Assessment and Plan An Implementation Activity of “Allegheny Places” and the SPC “2035 Transportation and Development Plan” I. INTRODUCTION BACKGROUND Allegheny County Economic Development (ACED) and the Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission (SPC) partnered to create a transit-oriented development (TOD) vision and plan for station areas within the West Busway corridor in western Allegheny County. The West Busway, a five-mile exclusive fixed guideway for buses, directly serves numerous communities at its six stations as well as communities in the Parkway West corridor and provides critical connections to the Pittsburgh International Airport, downtown Pittsburgh, and Oakland. The purpose of the West Busway Area TOD Assessment and Plan was to explore the revitalization potential of the West Busway and adjacent area communities that will support public transportation solutions to the region’s transportation and land use challenges. This effort is an implementation activity to advance Allegheny Places, Allegheny County’s first comprehensive plan, and SPC’s 2035 Transportation and Development Plan for Southwestern Pennsylvania. The overall goal of this plan is to help shift development activities into established communities as a result of enhanced understanding of development opportunities and site characteristics in the vicinity of transit-served stops and park-and-ride locations along the Busway and in the vicinity. The plan focused on development and re- development patterns that would serve to stimulate economic growth and promote the attraction, retention, and expansion of business, industry, commerce, and the arts. The plan also focused on sustainable patterns of development that would promote the construction of residential, educational, and cultural facilities in mixed-use configurations near transit facilities to create holistic communities where people can live, work, play, learn, create, and invest.

    North Shore Connector Project Before-and-After Study (2016) Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Learn more: www.transit.dot.gov/before-and-after-studies 10 North Shore Connector; Pittsburgh, PA The North Shore Connector project is a 1.2-mile extension of the Pittsburgh light rail system from the existing Gateway station in downtown, under the Allegheny River, to the North Shore district. Figure 3 is a map of the project and its connection to the existing light rail system in downtown Pittsburgh. The Port Authority of Allegheny County (Port Authority) developed and built the project. Port Authority now operates light rail service on the extension along with bus and light rail services throughout metropolitan Pittsburgh Planning for an extension of the downtown subway to the North Shore neighborhood of Pittsburgh began in the late 1980s with the Spine Line Study of transit options in a corridor reaching from the North Shore through downtown Pittsburgh and to Oakland and other areas east of downtown. The study examined light rail extensions to the North Shore via an existing highway bridge, an existing railroad bridge, and a new bridge, all with at-grade alignments north of the Allegheny River. That study concluded in 1993 and Port Authority deferred further attention to the corridor while the agency focused on the planning, development, and construction of the Airport Busway. That facility, since renamed as the West Busway, broke ground in 1994 and opened to service in 2001. Focus on North Shore connections resumed in 1997 with the initiation of a Major Investment Study (MIS) sponsored by the City of Pittsburgh and the Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission.
