PUBLIC COMMENTS/COMMUNICATIONS/MEMBER COMMENTS Paul Dyson (Burbank/RailPAC) questioned if there has been any movement regarding through ticketing between Amtrak and the LAX Flyaway bus service. Gene Skoropowski (HNTB) noted that there has been some action taken and Amtrak is taking the lead on implementation. Bart Reed (Transit Coalition) distributed a letter from a passenger who expressed concern over the apparent loss of on-board bicycle parking. The letter was distributed to Caltrans and Amtrak staff. Mr. Skoropowski commented that Caltrans has been retrofitting cars to improve bike storage. JUNE 9, 2011, LOSSAN TAC MEETING MINUTES The meeting minutes were approved. 6 LOSSAN STRATEGIC IMPLEMENTATION PLAN BUSINESS CASE James Campbell (PB) provided an update on the Strategic Implementation Plan (SIP) Business Case operations modeling. Progress is being made on the short-term scenario as work continues with the LOSSAN Technical Working Group (TWG). A draft report will be ready for review by the end of July documenting the short-term operations modeling. The 2030 long-term modeling efforts are also moving forward with the TWG discussing service patterns, frequencies, and capital infrastructure. The operations modeling reports will indicate constraints and bottlenecks along the corridor indicating where to make capital investments. The ridership modeling results were not yet available but progress is still being made and the preliminary results are expected to be available next week. Michael Litschi (OCTA) noted that an executive summary version of the results will be presented to the Board. STRATEGIC IMPLEMENTATION PLAN STATUS REPORT ON SHORT-TERM IMPROVEMENTS Mr. Skoropowski outlined the recent progress of the short-term improvements. Conceptual designs are being developed to identify the required capital infrastructure for the East Ventura to Goleta service. The current Rail2Rail agreement will continue until fall between Amtrak and Metrolink while surveys and audits are being resolved. The Rail2Rail between Amtrak and COASTER is moving quickly and is slated to start in August. It was noted that Metrolink has added service on the Orange County line as part of the Metrolink Service Expansion Program. DRAFT LOSSAN STATION INFORMATION CHECKLIST Mr. Skoropowski mentioned a personal experience where he was unable to buy a Metrolink ticket for future travel and that the LAX Fly-away ticket booth does not take cash. Mr. Litschi noted that there were major signage issues directing people from the temporary parking lot to the platform at the Tustin station. These examples prove that many improvements can be made to station information along the LOSSAN corridor. The LOSSAN Board directed staff to establish a joint customer-focus SWAT Team, with station- focused representation by Amtrak, COASTER, and Metrolink.

  • Hello. I'm Will Kempton, Chief Executive Officer of the Orange
    Hello. I’m Will Kempton, Chief Executive Officer of the Orange County Transportation Authority. I am pleased and honored to share the 2009 OCTA Annual Report with you. In an effort to reduce paper costs and "go green," this year’s annual report has moved to an online format. We think you’ll enjoy its interactivity. As you are aware, 2009 was a challenging year for transportation funding. We faced obstacles that we never had before, and hopefully, never will again. In spite of these obstacles, OCTA made great strides improving our transportation network. Due to our efforts in 2009, the I-5 Gateway Project through Buena Park is nearing completion. As a shovel-ready project, the SR-91 Eastbound Lane Addition Project received federal stimulus dollars in the spring of last year under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act...and we broke ground in November. Our 34 cities and the county received a total of $78 million for local street and road improvements to reduce your commute time. As part of the Metrolink Service Expansion Program, design for track and infrastructure improvements was completed. We also finished final design for grade crossing safety enhancements, and construction began on projects in the cities of Orange and Anaheim. Conceptual design and environmental clearance are under way for ARTIC, Orange County’s premier transportation hub. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2011. With the loss of State Transit Assistance funding and declining sales tax revenues, it was an extremely challenging year for our bus system. In June, the OCTA Board of Directors declared a fiscal emergency resulting in significant bus service reductions that affected our customers and employees.

Summer is usually our slow season, as commuters INSIDE take time off for vacations, but this year we’ve had significant increases in ridership. With gas costs skyrocketing, more people than ever—and more n n n A Closer look— sAFeTY MATTERS $7 sAvings at the CirCus people than we ever expected!—are turning to Metrolink as a commute Funding sCRRA n irvine ishuttle n rules oF The roAd 2 3 4 alternative. While increased ridership is great for the environment, we are well aware that it sometimes leads to frustratingly crowded trains. We’ve been hearing your reports about crowded, standing-room-only trains. We know this is frustrating, so here are some tips that may offer relief. First, please know that very few trains are truly standing-room-only, even with record-breaking ridership. Only two of our trains are actually at capacity. There are typically seats available on even the most crowded- looking trains—you just might have to move to a different car to find them. You’re free to move between cars, so go ahead and look for available seats wherever they may be on your train. (Tip: End cars tend to have the most seating available.) Also, certain trains are much more crowded than others. It’s possible that the train just before or after the one you usually ride has plenty of seats available.
