The 20-mile light rail starter line opened December 2008 and served 14 million riders in 2012, exceeding the prior year by nearly 5.4 percent. The system has well-exceeded all system projections. Design and Construction Valley Metro’s 20-mile light rail line is the longest starter line in federal New Starts grant history. It was built entirely in-street using a train-only trackway and traffic signals to allow trains to safely move through the cities of Phoenix, Tempe and System Overview Mesa, Arizona. The cost was $1.4 billion paid for using a $587 million federal New Starts grant, $59 million from federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality • Number of miles: 20 funding and local tax dollars. The local funds are a mix of sales tax revenue from • Number of stations: 28 the cities of Phoenix and Tempe, General Fund from Mesa and the county’s • Number of vehicles: 50 Proposition 400 half-cent sales tax. • Number of parking spaces: 3,600 There are 28 stations, primarily located in the center of the roadway, and designed • Total travel time: 65 minutes using a kit-of-parts infrastructure with significant consideration given to the desert • Opening date: Dec. 27, 2008 heat. Artwork is an integral part of the system and incorporated into each station • Cost to build: $1.4 billion area.

The vehicles are state-of-the-art technology and, similar to the stations, customized for the desert climate and operating environment. Future Expansion Valley Metro is responsible for building a 57-mile, high- capacity transit system as defined in the Regional Transportation Plan by 2032. Planning, design and/or construction has begun on the six extensions that make up the remainder of the 37 miles yet to be completed; a Operations study is also underway for South Central Phoenix. Two Valley Metro light rail operates 365 days a year, 20 hours extensions are currently under construction: Central Mesa a day, Sunday – Thursday, and almost 24 hours on Friday and Northwest Phoenix.

  • Comparison Between Bus Rapid Transit and Light-Rail Transit Systems: a Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis Approach

    Comparison Between Bus Rapid Transit and Light-Rail Transit Systems: a Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis Approach

    Urban Transport XXIII 143 COMPARISON BETWEEN BUS RAPID TRANSIT AND LIGHT-RAIL TRANSIT SYSTEMS: A MULTI-CRITERIA DECISION ANALYSIS APPROACH MARÍA EUGENIA LÓPEZ LAMBAS1, NADIA GIUFFRIDA2, MATTEO IGNACCOLO2 & GIUSEPPE INTURRI2 1TRANSyT, Transport Research Centre, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Spain 2Department of Civil Engineering and Architecture (DICAR), University of Catania, Italy ABSTRACT The construction choice between two different transport systems in urban areas, as in the case of Light-Rail Transit (LRT) and Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) solutions, is often performed on the basis of cost-benefit analysis and geometrical constraints due to the available space for the infrastructure. Classical economic analysis techniques are often unable to take into account some of the non-monetary parameters which have a huge impact on the final result of the choice, since they often include social acceptance and sustainability aspects. The application of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) techniques can aid decision makers in the selection process, with the possibility to compare non-homogeneous criteria, both qualitative and quantitative, and allowing the generation of an objective ranking of the different alternatives. The coupling of MCDA and Geographic Information System (GIS) environments also permits an easier and faster analysis of spatial parameters, and a clearer representation of indicator comparisons. Based on these assumptions, a LRT and BRT system will be analysed according to their own transportation, economic, social and environmental impacts as a hypothetical exercise; moreover, through the use of MCDA techniques a global score for both systems will be determined, in order to allow for a fully comprehensive comparison.

  • Electric Trolleybuses for the Lacmta's Bus System

    Electric Trolleybuses for the Lacmta's Bus System

    ARIELI ASSOCIATES MANAGEMENT, OPERATIONS AND ENGINEERING CONSULTING Report No. 1302 ELECTRIC TROLLEYBUSES FOR THE LACMTA’S BUS SYSTEM PREPARED FOR THE ADVANCED TRANSIT VEHICLE CONSORTIUM UNDER CONTRACT NO. OP 3320661 - 2 - EXECUTIVE SUMMARY California Air Resources Board (CARB) Adopted Urban Bus Transit Rule for 2010 Emission Standards requires that MTA, starting in 2010, set aside 15% of all bus purchases to acquire Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEVs). Currently, none of the buses in the MTA’s inventory can be classified as ZEV, nor there are any transit buses [defined as propelled by an internal combustion engine (ICE) powered by either diesel or alternate fuels] available on the market that can be classified as ZEV. The California emission standards are well ahead of those for the rest of the United States and the manufacturers will not develop suitable vehicles on their own unless incentivized by large customers such as LACMTA. Failure to meet the 2010 Emission Standards will result in regulatory punitive fines and potentially litigation. It is important to note here that this is not the first time that the subject of incorporating electric trolleybuses into the MTA’s bus system comes before the MTA Board of Directors. In the 1992 30-Year Integrated Transportation Plan, electric trolleybuses were the preferred solution to meet CARB air regulations. The Plan provided for 18 routes, 300 miles of overhead wires and 400 peak electric trolleybuses by 2004 to be increased to 1,100 peak electric trolleybuses by 2010. Eventually, the Board voted to terminate the project. After reviewing the various technologies that might qualify as zero emissions under CARB rule, the report focuses on electric trolleybuses as the technology of choice.

TYNE & WEAR METRO A1.1 The Tyne and Wear Metro was the first modern light rail scheme opened in the UK, coming into service between 1980 and 1984. At a cost of £284 million, the scheme comprised the connection of former suburban rail alignments with new railway construction in tunnel under central Newcastle and over the Tyne. Further extensions to the system were opened to Newcastle Airport in 1991 and to Sunderland, sharing 14 km of existing Network Rail track, in March 2002.

  • Passenger Rail Primer

    Passenger Rail Primer

    Passenger Rail Primer Thurston Passenger Rail Workgroup November 2005 Passenger Rail Characteristics This document is intended as a primer introducing and familiarizing the reader with the basic definitions of passenger rail and providing a comparison of common transit services in 2005. It was developed to facilitate a discussion of passenger rail and other transit options in the Thurston Region, in preparation of a regional rail plan. In the next section, Passenger Rail Overview, the fundamental characteristics of light rail, commuter rail and intercity rail are covered. Complementary and Alternative Transit Options (primarily common bus transit choices) provides a wider transit context within which the passenger rail modes coordinate and compete. After investigating transit options individually, they are compared and contrasted in a chart of their characteristics, Summarizing the Continuum of Services. Other Rail Transit Technologies provides a brief overview of less extensively used rail options and the Appendices provide additional details and information. Additional resources the reader may want to consult include: • The American Public Transportation Association (APTA) website at www.apta.com • The Victoria Transportation Policy Institute (VTPI) website at www.vtpi.org • Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) website at www.bts.gov Passenger Rail Overview Introduction Passenger rail modes may be distinguished from one another based on a variety of characteristics – level of service, technology, right-of-way and operations. These characteristics are discussed in more detail in the other sections of this chapter. Like other transit services, however, in the most basic sense passenger rail modes break down by three distinct geographies – local, regional, and statewide or interstate.

    DATE AGENDA ITEM 4 January 25, 2017 SUBJECT East Valley, Northwest Valley and Regional Paratransit Service Contract Award PURPOSE To request authorization for the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to execute a contract with Transdev for the operation of East Valley, Northwest Valley and Regional Paratransit Services for a total of five years for an amount not to exceed $124.47 million, which includes a base contract cost of $108.34 million, a contract contingency of $10.83 million (10% of the five-year contract value) and a projected pass through reimbursement cost for fuel of $5.30 million. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION/CONSIDERATION Valley Metro paratransit operations are currently performed under two contracts (Contract 1040014-S and Contract 1240003-S). Valley Metro is consolidating all services into one new turnkey paratransit operations contract resulting in one contractor who will accept customer calls, verify customer eligibility, schedule requested trips, operate the service, maintain the vehicles and provide all associated administrative support and reporting functions, including customer service. The new paratransit service contract is designed to improve our focus on service, safety, quality and productivity. It is designed to build on the utilization of dedicated vehicles and drivers for trips which can be grouped effectively, while still using flexible, non-dedicated vehicles (such as taxicabs) for trips which cannot be shared in a cost- effective manner. The new contract will also allow for the implementation of technology which will enable customers to use mobile phones and other electronic devices to interact with the paratransit service, thereby increasing service quality and responsiveness for customers while helping Valley Metro and its contractor to run the most efficient operation possible.
