  • Broadway Transit Urban Circulator Study
    Broadway Transit Urban Circulator Study PURPOSE & NEED FRAMEWORK April 30, 2014 version During the planning stages of a transportation project, it is important to outline the problems to be addressed and the goals set by the community, to develop a purpose and need statement for the project. A project need is the transportation deficiency or problem that is identified, and a project purpose is the set of objectives that will be met to address the transportation deficiency or problem. The purpose and need statement documents the problem to be addressed in the alternatives analysis and environmental review process and serves as the basis for the development of project goals, objectives, and evaluation measures. A well-defined purpose and need statement is critical to project planning because it helps define the scope of a project, guide the development and consideration of alternatives, identify potential environmental mitigation measures, provide legally defensible transportation and environmental decisions, and justify projects for programming. Though refinements may occur during future study, the purpose and need serves as an analytical framework for the project as it moves forward. Statement of Need The Broadway Corridor is a multimodal, well-travelled corridor within the city of Oakland stretching from Jack London Square to Interstate 580 (I-580). Two regional transit providers serve the corridor: Alameda – Contra Costa (AC) Transit, and the Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART). These services provide mobility for residents of Oakland, communities throughout the East Bay and beyond. Thousands of trips pass through the city of Oakland daily along this corridor. The corridor spans several neighborhoods such as Jack London Square, Old Oakland, City Center, Lake Merritt, Uptown, Koreatown/ Northgate, Valdez Triangle, Piedmont Avenue, Mid-Broadway, and the Kaiser and Alta Bates Medical Centers.

Aerial ropeway systems have been operated in touristic spots e.g., over lakes, rivers, and hilly lands in several countries. Passengers can enjoy a view from the above and experience a stress-free and reliable trip. Furthermore, those systems can be exploited as a public transportation in urbanized and populated regions. The objective of this article is to investigate the viability of implementing a gondola line flying over Doha Bay in Qatar as a tourist attraction from the marketing, economic, and environmental point of view. In this study, the associated costs (capital, maintenance, and operating) of implementing a monocable detachable gondola technology(MDG) are estimatedDraft using international best practices in the world. The economic analysis outcome demonstrates that the revenues generated from the fares could counterweigh the required capital investment as well as operating and maintenance costs and hence the proposed gondola could be economically attractive for investors.

The corruption and callous labor practices of one company, the United Railroads (which became the Market St. Railway), led to a bond measure in 1909 for a municipally owned system. Carbarn interior, c. 1917. Strikebreakers were housed in these facilities during the protracted strike of 1917. 4 5 Opening Day of the People’s Railway – December 28, 1912 (Geary near Grant St.) 6 City purchases MSRY Co. September 29, 1944 — the privately owned Market Street Railway Company turned over all its assets, including more than 500 streetcars, to the San Francisco Municipal Railway, following approval of San Francisco voters to buy the private company. 7 Cable Cars Three years later (1947), Mayor Lapham tried to kill off the Powell St. cable car line. Friedel Klussman created the Citizen’s Committee to save the cable cars and put a charter amendment on the ballot to save the Powell- Mason line and the Washington- Jackson line. The California St. line became part of Muni in 1952 when the private company went out of business. 8 Cable Cars, cont’d 1964 - cable cars listed on the National Register of Historic Places 1982-84 – entire cable car system restored.

  • White Paper: Urban Application of Aerial Cableway Technology
    WHITE PAPER: URBAN APPLICATION OF AERIAL CABLEWAY TECHNOLOGY WSP USA | June 2018 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY WSP USA is pleased to present the following white paper that summarizes the benefits and items for consideration of aerial cableway technology; outlines the project development process; and addresses advantages, costs and challenges associated with developing aerial cableway systems in urban environments. Urban applications of aerial cableway technology have been successfully integrated into transit networks in numerous cities around the globe, including the Portland Aerial Tram (Portland, Oregon) and Roosevelt Island Tram (New York, NY). Interest in aerial cableway technology has grown considerably in the United States in recent years, and initial feasibility studies have been completed in several U.S. cities, including San Diego, CA; Washington DC; and Brooklyn, NY. WSP is evaluating aerial cableway technology as an innovative first- and last-mile connection to regional transit in urban areas. Aerial cableway technology offers multiple benefits, including: relatively lower costs compared to other transportation modes, the ability to overcome significant changes in topography and other obstacles in natural and man-made environments, the ability to bypass congested roadways and transportation corridors, the ability to move high volumes of passengers: the equivalent of one city bus every minute, a streamlined design that fits into the urban environment, the potential to integrate transit-oriented development (TOD) near stations, and the ability to provide service between residential areas and key destinations. Many of these benefits have been realized in existing systems in La Paz, Bolivia, and Medellin, Colombia. Specifically, Medellin’s Line K transports more than 40,000 passengers per day between residential areas and the city center, reducing some commute times from more than an hour to approximately 10 minutes.

  • Ropeway People Movers for Ski Resorts
    Ropeway People Movers for Ski Resorts by Andrew S. Jakes* Abstract Las Vegas, Reno, Sun City, Foxwoods, Tunica, Broad Beach, and several other international mega-resorts, have discovered that People Movers (Automated Guideway Transit) improve their image and subsequently attract new customers. In addition to presenting the rope-propelled People Mover technologies, this paper reviews how specific installations have solved visitor circulation needs in many hotel resort complexes in Las Vegas and elsewhere. This approach can be duplicated to many ski resorts worldwide since the level of ridership in Las Vegas frequently exceeds levels typically found on ski resort shuttle bus systems worldwide. We particularly focus on existing, proven technologies and specific installations, including ropeway Horizontal Elevators (Mandalay Bay, Mirage, Primadonna, and Circus-Circus Automated People Mover installations). People Mover systems represent major changes and advances in equipment, facilities, operations, and services in comparison with conventional rail, bus, taxi, and other street modes. System performance and capacities can be tailored to match expected loads and a broad range of performance and operational requirements. Suppliers usually claim, with justification, that they can adapt their product to buyer's specific needs. Vehicle size can be expanded or reduced. Seats can be added or removed from vehicles. Various grades and curves can be accommodated by altering guideway design and speeds. Riding the circulation People Mover system can be as convenient, safe and comfortable as riding a modern elevator. Stations can be sufficiently numerous to provide development-wide access. Passengers experience little or no waiting for vehicles. The operation can be environmentally friendly with no emissions, very little noise and minimum visual impacts.

  • Estuary Park/Jack London Aquatic Center
    1 San Francisco Bay Area Water Trail Site Description for Estuary Park/Jack London Aquatic Center Location, Ownership, and Management: The Jack London Aquatic Center (JLAC) is located within Estuary Park, along the Oakland Estuary. JLAC is owned by the Port of Oakland and leased to the City of Oakland and managed by Oakland Parks, Recreation, and Youth Development. Contact Name: Herbelin, Sarah, Boating Recreation Supervisor Contact Phone: (510) 238-2196 Contact E-mail: [email protected] Large low-freeboard dock High-freeboard dock & ramp Club boat storage Facility Description: Estuary Park / Jack London Aquatic Center boating facilities include two primary launches: 1) A large low-freeboard dock connected to a wide ADA gangway; and, 2) A boat launch ramp with boarding pier to a high-freeboard dock. The low-freeboard dock is very popular with non-motorized small boat users and is used both by clubs and by the City of Oakland’s recreation programs. Estuary Park is a 7-acre park located along the Oakland shoreline at the mouth of the channel connecting to Lake Merritt. It features the Aquatic Center, picnic areas, benches, and walking paths. The Aquatic Center provides boat and equipment storage for several rowing clubs and the City’s boating programs. The Aquatic Center building also serves as a community center, which is available to rent for special events. The Oakland Estuary is generally calmer and more protected than the open Bay, making it a good location for different types of boating programs. However, boaters need to be familiar with navigational safety techniques and how to boat near other vessels.
