Chapter 6 Peer Analysis and Overall Findings Chapter 6 Peer Analysis and Overall Findings INTRODUCTION A general review of performance of peers to Placer County Transit can be helpful in determining if PCT falls within the “norms” of transit systems. For this analysis, peers were chosen which similarly provide regional transit and/or commuter or long-distance routes. The peers include: B-Line in Butte County, which operates local fixed routes in Chico as well as regional routes. El Dorado Transit, which has both local fixed routes, DAR and commuter services, and operates within the foothills and into the Sacramento region. San Luis Obispo Regional Transit Authority (SLORTA), which has a combination of regional routes and local fixed routes, plus a county-wide Dial-a-Ride. SolTrans (Solano County Transit), which operates local routes and school-based routes (similar to the Lincoln Circulator) in Vallejo and Benecia, with regional services to Walnut Creek and Fairfield. Tulare County Area Transit (TCaT) in Tulare County, which offers regional intercommunity fixed routes throughout the county. Data for this analysis came from three sources. Placer County Transit data was derived from the analyses provided in earlier tables. B-Line, SLORTA, SolTrans and TCaT data were derived from the State Controller’s Office annual reports (2016). Data for El Dorado Transit was obtained from operations reports available online. The data for this analysis is presented in Table 32. Note that the Placer County Transit data includes the regional fixed routes, DAR, and PCE services, but excludes the vanpool program. Populations Served Placer County Transit serves a population estimated to be 353,847. This is just over the peer average population. Both SolTrans and TCaT serve greater populations, although in addition to TCaT, Visalia Transit serves the City of Visalia, and the data for this transit service is not included. El Dorado Transit is estimated to serve just 181,000. PCT Short Range Transit Plan LSC Transportation Consultants, Inc.

Does not include vanpools, but does include PCE. Note 2: Data from State Controllers Office (SCO) 2016 report, w hich combines all fixed route modes (local, commuter, regional) versus all demand response modes. This presentation is for general comparison purposes. Note 3: El Dorado Transit data w as obtained from operations reports available at http://eldoradotransit.com/w p- content/uploads/2017/10/AdminOpsRptFY2016_17.pdf Ridership Fixed Route and special transportation (generally Dial-a-Ride) ridership ranges from 335,413 on El Dorado Transit to 360,275 on PCT, to a high of 1,545,944 on SolTrans. PCT provides the lower range of rides among the peers, but on par with El Dorado Transit and TCaT. Revenue Hours and Miles The vehicle revenue hours and miles indicate the level of service which is being provided. The hours range from a low of 38,157 on TCaT, to 50,962 on PCT, to over 100,000 on both SolTrans and B-Line. PCT operates the lowest number of vehicle miles among the peers, and SolTrans operates significantly more than the peer average. PCT Short Range Transit Plan LSC Transportation Consultants, Inc. Placer County Transportation Planning Agency Page 96 Operating Cost As shown in Table 32, the operating cost among peers ranges from a low of $2.9 million (TCaT) to $5.7 million (PCT) to $12.4 million (SolTrans), with a peer average of $7.8 million. Fares The base fixed route fare and the base regional or commuter fares are shown in Table 32. These base fares are used for general comparison, but numerous types of daily, monthly or multi-use passes are available which are typically used by many of the passengers. PCT has the lowest (local) base fare at $1.25, while the peer average is $1.70. PCT has a higher than average commuter/regional fare starting at $4.25 (the peer average is $3.81). Revenues TCaT receives the lowest amount of fare revenues ($381,727), followed by PCT ($571,427), while SolTrans receives the highest amount of fare revenue ($3.6 million). In terms of total revenues, however, PCT is near the average of $8.0 million, receiving $7.7 million in 2016-17. PEER PERFORMANCE The data in Table 32 also includes a number of system wide performance measures as discussed below. Passengers per Hour The system wide average passengers carried per hour of service is shown in Table 32 and Figure 39. As indicated, PCT is below the peer average of 10.4, with 7.1 passengers carried per hour of service. SolTrans, at the other end of the spectrum, carries 13.8 passengers per hour, reflecting the high percentage of commuter ridership on the system. Passengers per Capita The passengers carried per capita (population served) is depicted in Figure 40. The more rural systems, including PCT and TCaT, carry lower levels per capita (1.0 and 0.8 respectively), while more urban systems including SLORTA and SolTrans provide much higher ridership per capita (3.1 and 3.7). The B-Line is an anomaly, carrying 5.5 passenger trips per capita, which may be a result of both Chico State student ridership as well as the relatively high proportion of low income population.

As shown, four of the systems, including PCT, are above the average of $100.23 (ranging from $111.05 to $117.83) while B-Line and Tulare County Transit bring the average lower with their costs of $81.21 and $76.38, respectively. If the PCE figures are excluded from the costs and vehicle-operating quantities (in addition to the vanpool figures), PCT’s cost per vehicle-hour is $102.93 – very similar to the peer average.

PCT is highest at $19.56, followed by El Dorado Transit ($17.92). B-Line has the lowest cost per passenger trip at $7.66. Excluding the PCE figures, the PCT regional routes and DAR service has an average cost per passenger-trip of $16.82. PCT Short Range Transit Plan LSC Transportation Consultants, Inc.

    Sacramento Valley Station Master Plan Community Workshop Monday, October 16 | 5:00 – 7:30 p.m. Sacramento Valley Station Green Room 401 I Street, Sacramento Workshop Summary Introduction On Monday, October 16, 2017 the City of Sacramento hosted a community workshop for the Sacramento Valley Station Master Plan. More than 90 community members attended the workshop at the Sacramento Valley Station Green Room, located at 401 I Street in Sacramento from 5:00 – 7:30 p.m. Project Overview The goal of the Sacramento Valley Station Master Plan is to develop two design concepts for a new regional transportation hub, which includes 17-acres of property around the historic depot. The concepts will create a well-connected transit center, a gateway to the city, and a mixed-use destination with compact infill development. Workshop Purpose The purpose of the community workshop was to provide a forum for Sacramento community members and passing transit riders to review and provide input on different elements of two draft conceptual alternatives developed for the Sacramento Valley Station Master Plan. These alternatives were developed based upon City goals and objectives, technical analysis, best practices in planning and urban design, and community input. Key elements of the alternatives include a mobility network, placemaking options, site programming, and future buildout. Workshop Format The workshop was set up in an open house format, with five information stations for community members to review and provide input on with post it notes and comment cards. At 5:30 p.m., a presentation began with remarks by Mayor Darrell Steinberg and Congresswoman Doris Matsui.
