  • Staff Report
    STAFF REPORT SUBJECT: Amtrak Pacific Surfliner MEETING DATE: January 19, 2006 AGENDA ITEM: 12 A STAFF CONTACT: Andrew Orfila, Michael Powers RECOMMENDATION: Receive summary on ridership by station for Amtrak’s Pacific Surfliner Service SUMMARY: At the October joint meeting between SBCAG and SLOCOG, board members requested information on passenger rail usage. Data was provided to SBCAG by Caltrans and Amtrak staff that summarizes historical ridership patterns for Amtrak’s facilities in Santa Barbara County dating back to fiscal year 1999. Amtrak/Caltrans staff also provided ridership data for Amtrak’s Pacific Surfliner route for the month of August 2005. This report can be used to track general Amtrak ridership trends and to develop potential market packages for the Pacific Surfliner and other passenger rail lines. The report also highlights interregional passenger usage of rail between Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo Counties. In summary: • The data indicates a general trend of increasing Amtrak ridership in Santa Barbara County. • The Santa Barbara train station serves the most passengers within the County. There were 270,080 passengers that boarded (passengers on) or alighted (passengers off) at the Santa Barbara train station in fiscal year 2005. This total includes both train and bus ridership numbers. Ridership increases have been steady at the Santa Barbara station over the last seven years, but were down 8% from FY 2004 to 2005. • The second most popular station in the County is Goleta, with 66,531 passengers that boarded/alighted (trains plus buses) for fiscal year 2005. Ridership has increased significantly at Amtrak’s Goleta station, with annual increases of 51% from FY 2003 to 2004 and 46% from FY 2004 to 2005.
