  • Altamont Corridor Vision Universal Infrastructure, Universal Corridor Altamontaltamont Corridor Corridor Vision: Vision Universal Infrastructure, Universal Corridor
    Altamont Corridor Vision Universal Infrastructure, Universal Corridor AltamontAltamont Corridor Corridor Vision: Vision Universal Infrastructure, Universal Corridor What is the Altamont Corridor Vision? The Altamont Corridor that connects the San Joaquin Valley to the Bay Area is one of the most heavily traveled, most congested, and fastest growing corridors in the Northern California megaregion. The Bay Area Council estimates that congestion will increase an additional 75% between 2016 and 2040. To achieve state and regional environmental and economic development goals, a robust alternative is needed to provide a sustainable / reliable travel choice and greater connectivity. The Altamont Corridor Vision is a long-term vision to establish a universal rail corridor connecting the San Joaquin Valley and the Tri-Valley to San Jose, Oakland, San Francisco and the Peninsula. This Vision complements other similar investments being planned for Caltrain, which is in the process of electrifying its corridor and rolling stock; Capitol Corridor, which is moving its operations to the Coast Subdivision as it improves its service frequency and separates freight from passenger service; a new Transbay Crossing, which would allow for passenger trains to flow from Oakland to San Francisco; the Dumbarton Rail Crossing, which is being studied to be brought back into service; and Valley Rail, which will connect Merced and Sacramento. The Vision also complements and connects with High- Speed Rail (HSR), and would enable a one-seat ride from the initial operating segment in the San Joaquin Valley throughout the Northern California Megaregion. One-Hour One-Seat One Shared Travel Time Ride Corridor Shared facilities, Oakland, Stockton, Express service, integrated Peninsula, Modesto modern rolling ticketing, San Jose stock timed connections • The limited stop (two intermediate stops) travel time between Stockton and San Jose is estimated to be 60 minutes.

  • 3.17 Transportation and Traffic
    Environmental Impact Analysis Tri-Valley – San Joaquin Valley Regional Rail Authority Transportation and Traffic 3.17 Transportation and Traffic 3.17.1 Introduction This section describes the regulatory setting and environmental setting for transportation and traffic in the vicinity of the Proposed Project (including all track variants, technology variants, and the Greenville and Mountain House initial operating segments [IOS]) and the alternatives analyzed at an equal level of detail (Southfront Road Station Alternative, Stone Cut Alignment Alternative, West Tracy Operation and Maintenance Facility [OMF] Alternative, Mountain House Station Alternative, and Downtown Tracy Station Parking Alternatives 1 and 2). It also describes the impacts on transportation and traffic that would result and mitigation measures that would reduce significant impacts, where feasible. There would be no differences in the physical impacts related to hydrology and water quality due to the diesel multiple unit (DMU), hybrid battery multiple unit (HBMU), battery-electric multiple unit (BEMU), or diesel locomotive haul (DLH) technology variants, so the discussion in this section does not discuss those variants. Potential impacts associated with implementation of the Proposed Project and the alternatives analyzed at an equal level of detail assume the larger environmental footprint at proposed and alternative stations associated with a potential IOS (i.e., Greenville IOS, Mountain House IOS, Southfront Road Station Alternative IOS, and Mountain House Alternative IOS) and/or the expanded parking in 2040. As such, the analysis of the Proposed Project and the alternatives analyzed at an equal level of detail below considers the potential impacts associated with a potential IOS and/or the expanded parking in 2040.

Public Comment Robert S. Allen Mr. Allen stated that early planning called for BART along the railroads through downtown Pleasanton and Livermore. In 1986 the Livermore City Council voted to orient BART along I- 580. They sold the planned 11-acre downtown station site, and BART bought a 53-acre plot near I-580 and Isabel. Mr. Allen was BART District 5 Director at that time. Over two decades later a different Livermore City Council planned for BART near downtown in a costly subway. Mr. Allen co-authored an initiative petition seeking BART to Isabel and later to Greenville in the then vacant I-580 median. It gained over 840 (Mr. Allen has since contacted LAVTA after going on record at the March 8, 2017 meeting requesting that the minutes be corrected to 8,400) signatures of Livermore voters, and qualified for the 2011 municipal election ballot.
