Udstuen, Director Appointing Authority: County Board Chairmen, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will Counties Philip A. Pagano, Executive Director TO FRIENDS OF COMMUTER RAIL: Chairman’s Welcome to Metra’s 2002 Program and Budget. It Message describes good news such as further ridership growth, steady progress on our three New Start projects, and ongoing capital improvements including orders for badly needed new cars and locomotives. Meanwhile, the costs of providing safe, reliable, convenient and comfortable commuter rail service have steadily increased. Thus, our proposed 2002 operating budget envisions our first fare increase in six years, 5%, which will likely take effect June 1. I think it’s important to note that this will be only the fourth fare increase in the 18 years of Metra’s management of the Northeast Illinois commuter rail system. And it will be only the third one for operations. A fare hike that took effect in 1989 was dedicated solely to capital projects, namely the physical improvements that preserve and improve our serv- ice — and in turn reduce operating costs.

    Final 2004 Program and Budget November 2003 Board of Directors Jeffrey R. Ladd, Chairman Appointing Authority: County Board Chairman, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will Counties Carole R. Doris, Secretary Appointing Authority: County Board Chairman, DuPage County Elonzo W. Hill, Director Appointing Authority: Suburban Members, Cook County Board Larry A. Huggins,Treasurer Appointing Authority: City of Chicago W. Warren Nugent,Vice Chairman Appointing Authority: Suburban Members, Cook County Board Brad S. O’Halloran, Director Appointing Authority: Suburban Members, Cook County Board Michael K. Smith, Director Appointing Authority: County Board Chairman, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will Counties Philip A. Pagano, Executive Director Chairman’s Message To Friends of Commuter Rail: A strong demand for expansion of Metra service throughout the Northeast Illinois Region poses a greater challenge than ever before in our 20-year history. Our 2004 budget document shows how we plan to meet that demand while we maintain Metra’s existing service at high levels of safety and reliability. Although we’re faced again this year with lower projected sales tax proceeds, Metra through responsible cost control will achieve a 55 percent revenue recovery ratio and live within our statutory funding limits without the need for a fare increase. In January of 2003 we announced our “Vision for the future of Metra.” This vision would propel the state’s transit network firmly into the next century, with a new SouthEast Service commuter line to the growing seg- ments of Cook and Will counties, and the development of the nation’s first intra-suburban rail network. The network, known as the STAR Line, would open the door to numerous possibilities for inter-suburban service.

  • Chicago-Milwaukee Intercity Passenger Rail Program
    Chicago‐Milwaukee Amtrak Hiawatha Service Draft Environmental Assessment Appendix A Detailed Analysis of Route and Design Alternatives Appendix A Detailed Analysis of Route and Design Alternatives A. Appendix A Appendix A details the identification of alternatives and includes the in‐depth analysis of route alternatives and project design alternatives that are summarized in the EA Chapter 2 – Definition of Alternatives. As discussed in Chapter 2 of the EA, NEPA requires that agencies shall “rigorously explore and objectively evaluate all reasonable alternatives, and for alternatives which were eliminated from detailed study, briefly discuss the reasons for their having been eliminated.”1 In following NEPA requirements, this document identifies and evaluates a range of alternatives for reasonableness, and eliminates alternatives from further analysis that are not found to be reasonable. In intercity passenger rail corridor planning, the range of alternatives to be considered consists of a hierarchical array of Route, Service, Investment, and Design Alternatives, which is developed with the goal of examining a complete range of alternative means of fulfilling the purpose and need of the project. Within a particular corridor and with a given purpose and need established for a proposed intercity passenger rail service, there may be multiple physical routes (e.g., parallel existing rail lines that traverse the corridor) over which the service may be operated. Similarly, any one of these available “Route Alternatives” may be capable of supporting intercity passenger rail service with a range of basic service characteristics such as frequency levels, travel times, stopping patterns, train consist2, and fare structures. For a particular combination of possible service characteristics (with each combination referred to as a “Service Alternative”), there may likewise be multiple options for the package of physical investments needed to support the operation of the service with those service characteristics.
