    January 11, 2018 Mr. Ezequiel Castro, Acting Chief Division of Rail and Mass Transportation Office of State Transit Programs and Plans (MS 39) P.O. Box 942874 Sacramento, CA 94274-0001 Subject: Submittal: Capitol Corridor Joint Powers Authority Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program Grant Application for the Northern California Corridor Enhancement Program Dear Mr. Castro: As one of the three California Intercity Passenger Rail (CA IPR) managing agencies, the Capitol Corridor Joint Powers Authority (CCJPA) is pleased to present our 2018 Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program (TIRCP) grant application entitled The Northern California Corridor Enhancement Program. The CCJPA’s Northern California Corridor Enhancement Program proposes three subprojects. CCJPA is not alone in presenting these subprojects –each one is built upon critical peer agency partnerships. In combination and independently, these projects significantly reduce Vehicle Miles Travelled (VMT) and GHG emissions while enhancing the quality of life for all Californians. The subprojects are: . Sacramento to Roseville Third Track Phase 2 and SR 51 Widening . Oakland to San Jose Service Expansion Phase 2A . Statewide Integrated Travel Program Sacramento to Roseville Third Track Phase 2 and SR 51 Widening With the first phase of the Sacramento to Roseville Third Main Track funded and underway, the CCJPA is prepared, along with Caltrans District 3, to seek pre-construction funding for the second phase of the SR3T Project and the widening of SR 51 (Cap City Freeway). These related sub-projects have co-joined physical elements (rebuilt rail bridges across a widened SR 51) where working together will provide for project efficiencies. Cost savings will accrue for both of these regionally significant (and shared travel market) transportation sub- projects.

  • Station Access Survey Was Conducted in 2019
    CAPITOL CORRIDOR STATION ACCESS STUDY 06/01/2020 CAPITOL CORRIDOR JOINT POWERS AUTHORITY Capitol Corridor Station Access Study Intermodal Access Improvements Prepared by Aaron Rubin, Project Coordinator June 2020 1 CAPITOL CORRIDOR STATION ACCESS STUDY 06/01/2020 City Station Owner’s / Partner’s Guide to Using Report Intention of Study The research presented for each Capitol Corridor rail station is intended to be provided to city-owning station partners as suggestions for enhancing multimodal access within the immediate station vicinity and surrounding service areas of each station. These suggestions came from a combination of four main sources: • Capitol Corridor Ridership Observations • Researcher Observations Collected through Site Visits • Researcher Observations Specifically Inspired by Qualitative and Quantitative Feedback from Ridership Survey & Interviews • City Plans (e.g. City Amtrak Station Planning / City & County Bike Plans / Community-Based Transportation Plans) Capitol Corridor recognizes that some cities have conducted their own and more thorough multimodal station access planning studies or community-based transportation plans for areas incorporating Capitol Corridor rail stations. Capitol Corridor defaults to the conclusions of these studies when findings in this report do not directly align, or potentially conflict with, the findings in a city or county’s studies related to multimodal travel planning. Researchers producing this report attempted to read through cities’ publicly available community transportation & active travel planning studies. It is highlighted when a suggestion provided to a city in this report is Capitol Corridor placing its support behind a planning project proposed by a city or county that may directly help encourage improved access by a certain travel mode to a Capitol Corridor train station.

    APPENDIX A: PUBLIC COMMENTS & RESPONSES The table below includes every comment received as part of the Unmet Transit Needs outreach for fiscal year 2019- 2020. The first column from the table includes the comment received from the public. In most cases the comment is printed exactly as received, but in rare cases it was summarized to save space or remove personal information. The second column includes one of four findings: this is not an unmet transit need, this unmet transit need is not reasonable to meet, or this unmet transit need is reasonable to meet. The third column includes an explanation for how PCTPA staff and the SSTAC determined whether a request was an unmet transit need that was reasonable to meet. In many cases the explanations refer to various transit plans, all of which are available on the PCTPA website pctpa.net. The fourth column lists the jurisdictions relevant to each comment (‘County’ refers to the unicorporated areas of Placer County). The comments are listed in the table according to six categories: Operational Comments about buses, stops and fares; Scheduling Comments about delays and service frequency; New Service Comments with requests for service between two locations; Service Area Comments with requests to alter existing routes; and Miscellaneous Comments. Within each category, the comments are sorted by finding with “this is not an unmet need” first and “this unmet need is reasonable to meet” last.

  • Annual Unmet Transit Needs Report for Fiscal Year 2021
    Annual Unmet Transit Needs Report For Fiscal Year 2021 Adopted: February 26, 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This year Placer County Transportation Planning Agency (PCTPA) received a record 347 Unmet Transit Needs comments through a workshop, a public hearing, and extensive online engagement. The comments represent nearly every part of Placer County and reflect the diversity of needs for transit across its communities. There were three dominant trends in comments. First, as in previous years, there were many comments requesting a service that already exists, reflecting a need for more public eductation around transit. Second, there were far more requests for inter- city and inter-county transit service than in previous years. Third, there were many request for non-work transit service, including service from South Placer to the Tahoe Basin for recreation, service to the airport, and service to downtown Sacramento for evening and weekend events. PCTPA staff analyzed these comments according to adopted Unmet Transit Needs definitions, and will present recommended findings to the Social Services Transportation Advisory Council (SSTAC), the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), and the PCTPA Board of Directors. The SSTAC’s recommended finding is that there are no new unmet transit needs that are reasonable to meet. Last year’s unmet transit needs finding that Dial-A-Ride service between Lincoln and Rocklin for people who are unable to ride fixed- route service is in the process of being implement by the cities of Lincoln and Rocklin, and Placer County Transit. The PCTPA Board adopted the SSTAC and staff recommended findings at their February 2020 meeting.
