PORT AUTHORITY OF ALLEGHENY COUNTY LIGHT RAIL TRANSIT V.4.0 7/20/18 STATION DESIGN GUIDELINES ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Port Authority of Allegheny County (PAAC) provides public transportation throughout Pittsburgh and Allegheny County. The Authority’s 2,600 employees operate, maintain, and support bus, light rail, incline, and paratransit services for approximately 200,000 daily riders. Port Authority is currently focused on enacting several improvements to make service more efficient and easier to use. Numerous projects are either underway or in the planning stages, including implementation of smart card technology, real-time vehicle tracking, and on-street bus rapid transit. Port Authority is governed by an 11-member Board of Directors – unpaid volunteers who are appointed by the Allegheny County Executive, leaders from both parties in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and Senate, and the Governor of Pennsylvania. The Board holds monthly public meetings. Port Authority’s budget is funded by fare and advertising revenue, along with money from county, state, and federal sources. The Authority’s finances and operations are audited on a regular basis, both internally and by external agencies. Port Authority began serving the community in March 1964. The Authority was created in 1959 when the Pennsylvania Legislature authorized the consolidation of 33 private transit carriers, many of which were failing financially. The consolidation included the Pittsburgh Railways Company, along with 32 independent bus and inclined plane companies. By combining fare structures and centralizing operations, Port Authority established the first unified transit system in Allegheny County. Participants Port Authority of Allegheny County would like to thank agency partners for supporting the Light Rail Transportation Station Guidelines, as well as those who participated by dedicating their time and expertise.

Directions the Matheson Courthouse Is at 450 South State Street. If You Take Trax, Courthouse Station Is the Closest Stop on the N/S Line
Directions The Matheson Courthouse is at 450 South State Street. If you take Trax, Courthouse Station is the closest stop on the N/S Line. From there the courthouse west entrance is about ½ block. On the University Line, the closest stop is Library Station, about 1½ blocks from the east entrance. If you drive, we can validate your parking if you park at the courthouse. Public parking (Level P2) is accessible only from 400 South, eastbound. If you are already west of the Courthouse, drive eastbound on 400 South and turn right into the driveway about mid-block between Main and State. (Don't go to the parking garage for the old First Security Building.) If you are east of the Courthouse, take 500 South to Main Street, turn right, and then right again on 400 South. Enter the driveway as above. Bear to the left as you descend the driveway. A deputy sheriff might ask you your business at the courthouse. After parking, take the elevator to the first floor rotunda. The courthouse has airport-type security, so leave whatever might be considered a weapon in your car. We are in the Judicial Council Room in Suite N31. To get to Suite N31, take the elevator to the 3d Floor. The elevators are near the east entrance to the building. Then turn left as you exit the elevator.

A History of Streetcar Service in Athens, Georgia
A HISTORY OF STREETCAR SERVICE IN ATHENS, GEORGIA, AND SOME POSSIBILITIES FOR ITS REINTRODUCTION by DAVID WINTER RAY (Under the Direction of John C. Waters) ABSTRACT The city of Athens, Georgia boasted a street railway service for forty-five uninterrupted years, from 1885 to 1930. For all but the first six years, when the small original streetcars were pulled by mules, the system operated electric-powered streetcars, also known as trolleys. Chapter 2 of this thesis offers a perspective on the history of this streetcar service. It covers the routes that were utilized, the chronology, content, and impact of developments and expansions, as well the line of succession of ownership for the operating company. Then, in Chapter 3, the thesis analyzes the potential for reintroduction of an electric streetcar system in Athens. Specifically, it focuses on some possible routes that might be suitable for an effective line or circuit. These hypothetical routes are assessed with a view towards their technical feasibility, as well as the likelihood that they will attract a ridership significant enough to sustain long-term success and viability.

HSSEC Facilitation Report
MMeemmoorraanndduumm Department of Community & Neighborhoods To: Jackie Biskupski, Mayor From: Department of Community & Neighborhoods Date: November 9, 2016 Re: Homeless Services Site Evaluation Commission, Site Selection Facilitation The following is a summary report of the facilitations conducted on November 7 and November 8, 2016 for the Homeless Services Site Evaluation Commission (HSSEC). The purpose of the facilitation was to review potential locations for homeless resource centers, and evaluate them based on the Criteria for Success developed by the Commission. As part of the Collective Impact process, 16 success criteria were established to help guide location, design, and service needs in future resource centers. These exercises focused solely on the location base criteria. Location-based Criteria • Not Conducive for Regional Drug Trade/Safety is Key: The Salt Lake City Police Department has determined that proximity to interstate on-and-off ramps is an indicator of local drug activity. Potential resource center sites will be evaluated based on their proximity to freeway ramps in Salt Lake City. Comments received during the meetings helped expand on this criteria to include considerations such as; proximity to liquor stores, existing crime issues in the neighborhood, and off of primary streets where observation and control are easier. • Close to Public Transportation as Appropriate to Access Needed Services: Transportation is a major hurdle to treatment for many individuals experiencing homelessness. Potential sites will be evaluated based on their proximity to public transportation, which is defined as half a mile from TRAX stops and frequent bus lines. Comments received during the meetings built on this by stating that walkability is also an important consideration.
