One-Year Implementation Plan Fiscal Year 2017

September 2016 Congress established the Northeast Corridor Commission to develop coordinated strategies for improving the Northeast’s core rail network in recognition of the inherent challenges of planning, financing, and implementing major improvements that cross multiple jurisdictions. The expectation is that by coming together to take collective responsibility for the NEC, these disparate stakeholders will achieve a level of success that far exceeds the potential reach of any individual organization.

The Commission is governed by a board comprised of one member from each of the NEC states (Massachusetts, , , , , , , and Maryland) and the District of Columbia; four members from ; and five members from the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). The Commission also includes non-voting representatives from four freight railroads, states with connecting corridors and several commuter operators in the Region.

Northeast Corridor Commission |5 Introduction

The Northeast Corridor (NEC) is a critical network of rail infrastructure connecting the largest cities, markets, and population centers between Boston, Massachusetts and Washington, District of Columbia. Service operators include eight commuter railroads (MBTA, Shore Line East, Metro-North Railroad, , NJ TRANSIT, SEPTA, MARC, and Virginia Railway Express), Amtrak, and several freight railroads. Main line infrastructure owners in various locations include Amtrak, the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority Metro-North Railroad, the Connecticut Department of Transportation, and the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority. The Northeast Corridor Commission (the Commission) coordinates planning and investment across infrastructure owners and service operators.

The Northeast Corridor One-Year Implementation Plan: Fiscal Year 2017 (the Plan) is a consolidated cross-agency record of the anticipated capital project activity in the upcoming federal fiscal year based on available capital funding. The foundation for the Plan is the Northeast Corridor Capital Investment Plan: Fiscal Years 2017-2021 (CIP) which identified how available capital funding is anticipated to be spent over a five-year time horizon, plus how additional capital funding could be used to eliminate the state-of-good-repair backlog and improve performance of the railroad.

This Plan and the CIP were created to comply with the Northeast Corridor Commuter and Intercity Rail Cost Allocation Policy (the Policy), approved by the Commission in 2015. The Policy calls for the collection of capital project budget, scope, and schedule information such that reports on the implementation of capital projects can be generated on a quarterly and annual basis. Also, the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act calls on the Commission to report annually to Congress on the delivery of the CIP. This Plan will serve as the baseline against which those reports will measure performance in FY17.

Baseline Capital Charge Program

The first half of the Plan contains the Baseline Capital Charge (BCC) Program. BCCs are charges allocated to service operators based on relative use to fund the normalized replacement of existing capital assets (excluding major bridges and tunnels) based on the methods described in the Commission’s Policy. This portion of the Plan contains a record of all anticipated BCC-eligible investments in FY17.

According to the Policy, any operator’s BCCs must be invested within the service territory of that operator. To that end, this portion of the document is divided into 31 BCC segments defined by points on the NEC where the mix of operators changes. Each segment then has a distinct set of operators whose BCCs may be applied to investments in infrastructure. Some investments are location-specific within the segment, while others are portions of programmatic investments covering larger geographies that are forecasted to occur within the segment.

Special Projects

The second half of the Plan covers Special Projects. Special Projects include any investments which are not the normalized replacement of existing capital assets. Such projects may include new infrastructure above and beyond existing assets, the replacement of existing assets with markedly superior assets, or the replacement of major bridges and tunnels. Many of these projects are multi-year, complex initiatives that include multiple funding sources, inter-agency resource coordination, specialized procurement, and track outages. The Plan includes information both on the overall scope of each special project, as well as information specific to expenditures and project activities expected to take place in FY17.

Northeast Corridor Commission |31 Segment 11: Penn Station Terminal Program Scope

Capital investments planned within the Penn Station New York terminal zone include escalator renewals and upgrades, as well as various turnout replacements. Turnouts include “A”, “JO”, “C”, and “KN” interlockings. This ongoing program,known as Penn Station Zero Defects, will spend $3 to $5 million a year and replace between five to eight turnouts a year. Along with the ongoing program of upgrades to the many systems, components, and buildings that makeup the Penn Station New York facility, the chilled water system is also undergoing a major upgrade. The new chilled water loop system will eliminate the need for the six existing booster pumps scattered about the site. The required horsepower of the main chilled water operating pumps will be reduced, which will result in a more energy efficient system. Finally, there are track areas of Penn Station New York which have known PCB contamination and are in need of remediation and track replacement. When track replacement and work is required in this area, soil must be removed and it must be properly disposed of to comply with solid waste regulations. Remediation and track replacement has occurred in every year for the last several years. Areas completed include Erie Tracks 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, portions of the Erie ladder, North Tube, and D Yard. As Amtrak Engineering continues its track replacements this project will cover remediation of any PCB-contaminated soil encountered, along with continued track replacements.

Northeast Corridor Commission |67 Segment 30: Thorndale to Harrisburg Program Scope This segment will receive investment as part of Amtrak’s surfacing, turnout renewal, and joint elimination programs as well as its wood tie and timber replacement program, which occurs on the mainline and tracks. Additional track work includes the spot undercutting program, which removes and replaces fouled ballast at select locations, such as mud spots. Various state of good repair upgrades are planned at Harrisburg and Lancaster Stations, including the Harrisburg baggage bridge demolition, track 8 low level platform upgrades, and Lancaster pedestrian bridge upgrades. Signal bridges will also be redecked in this segment and fall protection equipment installed, including tie offs and safety lines on signal bridges. Though not a comprehensive description of all planned work, some other examples of programmatic capital maintenance within this segment are fence upgrades, catenary pole replacement, and the renewal and replacement of existing catenary poles. Many of our catenary poles are over 90 years old and are beyond their design service life. Replacement of the network of catenary poles provides physical support to the power transmission and catenary systems, and is an integral part of those systems. In this Capital Segment Amtrak also plans to investment in undergrade bridges that are currently not in a state of good repair. Undergrade bridge improvements often involve converting open deck undergrade bridges to ballast deck for improved train performance.

Project Scope FY17 Scope

This project will construct a new platform and make The FY17 project scope is to complete 100% design, other improvements at Ruggles Station to enable all advertise to contractors, award contract, and issue inbound and outbound MBTA trains to serve the station notice-to-proceed with construction. and to increase system capacity along this segment of the NEC. The project will improve accessibility by upgrading the existing elevators and adding one new elevator in the lower busway, and make interior and exterior repairs to bring the station to code. A TIGER grant partially funds this project, which is part of a larger initiative to modernize Ruggles Station.

Project Justification

Today, more than 30 percent (approximately 500+ passengers) of the inbound trains bypass Ruggles Station, requir- ing inbound passengers to transfer from commuter rail to the Orange Line at Back Bay then backtracking to Ruggles, commonly known as the “Back Bay Detour”. The new platform will provide service improvements for the MBTA Com- muter Rail passengers and add operational flexibility for MBTA Commuter Rail and Amtrak. With full service to Ruggles Station, Commuter Rail ridership to the area surrounding the station will grow as station area employment and Boston region population grows. According to MBTA data, a conservative estimate would increase the current ridership of 2,130 outbound boardings to approximately 3,886 weekday riders if full service were provided. Presently only 29 of the 69 weekday northbound commuter rail trains passing Ruggles Station stop at the station. In addition to this platform, the project will improve station accessibility, enhance pedestrian safety and security, address substantial interior and exterior repairs, make improvements necessary to bring the station facility up to standard codes, and replace existing station elevators.

As part of the project, four new Metro-North stations will be built in the Bronx near Co-op City, Morris Park, Parkchester/Van Nest, and Hunts Point. The project also includes upgrading the power and signal systems along the Hell Gate Line; adding new interlockings and tracks, and modifying existing ones and curves on a portion of the line; replacing existing over the street railroad bridges as necessary; and upgrading the Bronx River Bridge.

Project Justification PSA will add resiliency and redundancy to the existing Metro-North NHL service to Manhattan, providing greater mobility, access, connectivity and travel times savings for existing and new Metro-North customers and helping to ad- dress Grand Central Terminal (GCT) capacity issues. The additional redundancy and resiliency would occur through the establishment of alternate links for NHL service to access Manhattan should there be a single point of failure along its current GCT based route. In addition, PSA will: substantially reduce travel times for people who rely on public transpor- tation to travel between Manhattan’s and areas within Metro-North’s East-of-Hudson service territory; pro- vide a new train ride—without transfers—from NHL communities to jobs, shopping and other destinations on Manhat- tan’s West Side; improve regional connectivity and mobility by completing direct connections at Penn Station among all of the New York metropolitan area’s regional and intercity rail carriers; address increasing capacity concerns at GCT and promote the economic and environmental health and vitality of the New York metropolitan region. Furthermore, adding four stations in the East Bronx will introduce: direct rail service from the East Bronx to employment centers on Manhattan’s West Side and along I-95 in Westchester and Connecticut; and direct rail service and easier access to East Bronx employers from communities along the New Haven Line and from the West Side of Manhattan. Most of the areas to be served by the four stations currently lack rail service. All the benefits mentioned above will occur by pro- viding cost-effective transportation improvements (using existing infrastructure) that can be implemented with minimal adverse social, economic and environmental impacts.

This project includes design and Hudson Tunnel Project environmental impact statement construction of a new two-track tunnel to enable the that is underway. future rehabilitation and modernization of the existing two-track tunnel which was inundated with corrosive salt water during Superstorm Sandy and will continue to deteriorate without comprehensive rehabilitation. Taking one track out of service at a time without the new tunnel would reduce total capacity for Amtrak and NJ TRANSIT, impacting 200,000 passengers on 450 trains each weekday. Preliminary engineering and environmental review are underway with the FRA as the lead agency and NJ TRANSIT as the NEPA manager.

Project Justification

Service reliability throughout the North River Tunnel has been compromised because of the damage to tunnel components caused by Superstorm Sandy, which inundated both tubes in the North River Tunnel with seawater in October 2012. Chlorides from the seawater remain in the tunnel’s concrete liner and bench walls, causing ongoing damage to the bench walls, imbedded steel, track, and signaling and electrical components, requiring an extended outage of the tunnel in order to completely replace damaged systems and rehabilitate the tunnel. These improvements must be achieved while maintaining uninterrupted commuter and intercity rail service and by optimizing the use of existing infrastructure. Existing service can only be maintained by the construction of a new, two-track tunnel connecting to existing Penn Station that will carry existing rail traffic during the rehabilitation of the North River Tunnel.

Project Justification

The existing Portal Bridge, which hosts about 450 trains per day traveling between Newark, NJ and Penn Station, New York, is a major bottleneck and source of delay of train traffic. It has limited vertical clearance and must routinely be opened for maritime traffic. The bridge is functionally obsolete and experiences frequent mechanical failures, resulting in a single point-of-failure on the NEC and substantial delays. The risk of continued and increasing unplanned outages due to malfunctioning of the obsolete bridge cannot be mitigated by maintenance.

DOT and SEPTA, finalized in June 2016. Additional funding is required for design and construction. No cost sharing agreement is in place.

Project Justification

Philadelphia 30th Street Station is Amtrak’s third busiest station in the nation and Pennsylvania’s busiest intermodal sta- tion serving Amtrak, SEPTA and NJ TRANSIT. In FY15, the station served more than 11 million rail passenger trips. The station services a total of 12 Amtrak routes and one NJ TRANSIT route on the lower platforms and 13 SEPTA rail routes on the upper platforms. Heavy utilization of the station coupled with deferred maintenance has left 30th Street Station in a state of disrepair. An estimated growth of 3.5% in annual ridership will stress state of good repair issues and push the station beyond its operating capacity unless the station is adapted to accommodate this growth. The 30th Street Station Master Plan for the station and adjacent rail yards, completed in June 2016, offers a phased, incremental strate- gy for advancing state of good repair and station improvement projects as part of a 35-year comprehensive sustainable transportation growth plan and transit-oriented commercial development program above the rail yards.

Additional funding is required for for staging trainsets, as well as associated demolition, design and construction of improvements. grading and soil disposal, drainage, track, electric trac- tion, communications & signals, pavement, utilities, and miscellaneous structures.

Project Justification

Amtrak plans to double high speed train frequencies between New York and Washington by 2020. This will require additional HSR S&I tracks as well as additional crew quarters and material storage. As the recently completed Union Station Master Plan did not include a detailed analysis of Ivy City, there needs to be a master plan to address the high speed trains as well as other growth anticipated in our 2025 and 2030 operating plans. Without early confirmation that the current site can support future operations or identification of the need for additional property, Amtrak runs the risk of not having the necessary facilities and track storage available for 2020. Also, any construction done without a master plan may conflict with the necessary future layout.

The FY17 project scope will advance construction on the Claytor Concourse Mod- ernization Project. This project will double the passenger spaces in the existing Claytor Concourse, improve egress and safety, provide for better operational practices, and enhance the overall passenger experience at Washington Union Station.

Project Justification

The Washington Union Station complex, including passenger, operational and train handling facilities and infrastruc- ture, is not in a state of good repair. Amtrak needs to fund an immediate series of progressive elements to address severe issues that are already plaguing the complex and are getting increasingly urgent at an accelerating rate. Op- erational facilities and systems including the crew base, commissary, and substation are dilapidated and well beyond their useful lives. Train handling facilities including tracks, passenger platforms, and canopies are inadequate and not in compliance with modern standards such as ADA.

The New Haven-Hartford-Springfield corridor is underserved by rail, leading to increased congestion and poor access to jobs, which hinders economic growth. The first phases, funded for con- struction, include adding a second track between New Haven and Hartford, overhauling the signal and com- munications system, rehabilitating or replacing many bridges and culverts, and improving stations at Walling- ford, Meriden, Berlin, and Hartford. These investments will improve reliability and allow for increased service. The final phases, which are not funded, would restore a full double track railroad with a goal of providing 25 trains per day at 30 minute headways.

Project Justification

The Hartford to Springfield corridor is extremely underserved by rail, increasing the negative impacts of congestion, and stifling the local economy by denying access to jobs and regional markets. This project will increase the ridership capture for the NEC, significantly enhance regional rail travel in New England, and provide a critical link enabling other initiatives in the area including the Northern New England Rail Initiative, Knowledge Corridor improvements, and NEC future.

STATION NY Accessory work will include the provision of associated valves, me- - STATION ters and pumps. Work will also include the demolition of existing CHILLED WATER chilled water distribution piping. Chilled water distribution piping SYSTEM is to be located in Amtrak back-of-house spaces, public concourse UPGRADE areas and within Amtrak tenant areas in New York Penn Station. The chilled water system will be designed to accommodate the existing conditions, future changes, and have a construction sequencing that will minimize disruptions to existing operations in the station and tenant spaces. Work will be on 3rd shift.The result of this project is a completely new chilled water loop piping system at Pennsylvania Station. The chilled water loop system will eliminate the need for the six existing booster pumps scattered about the site. The required horsepower of the main chilled water operating pumps will be reduced, which will result in a more en- ergy efficient system. The passenger waiting area environmental comfort will be increased and the chilled water loop piping sys- tems serving AMTRAK?s tenants will become more reliable. New metering for the chilled water system will allow Amtrak to obtain chilled water usage of tenants in Penn Station, which will be included Amtrak, LIRR, and NJT.

FY2014 will MASTER PLAN continue this effort to address significant ADA, life safety, passen- IMPLEMENTA- ger service, concourse crowding, dilapidated employee welfare TION facilities, non-compliant food preparation areas and other critical issues which plague WUT that must be addressed immediately. Phase 1 provides immediate improvements and expansion of the existing concourse waiting areas, including funding portions of the relocation of mechanical and electrical rooms between Gates E and G.Phase 1 relocates and upgrades facilities currently housed on the west side of WUT to make room for the re-installation of tracks 5 and 6. This is the key to unlocking the entire WUT Mas- ter Plan by providing additional tracks/platform to permit taking track and platform zones out of service for extended periods for later phase construction. Phase 1 facilities projects within the rail yard include relocating the Crew Base to the Government Printing Office (GPO) building with direct access to the terminal by the existing bridge over 1st Street, providing modern employee wel- fare facilities; moving and improving the satellite commissary to provide facilities compliant with FDA requirements, and relocating other support and communication facilities. In addition, these facilities relocations and upgrades are planned to be completed in FY17. Phase 1 will not only address these urgent issues, but is also the necessary foundation to allow the Master Plan (or any other alternative plan for the future of WUT) to proceed. Each of the projects comprising the Phase 1 program will, in and of themselves, deliver mobility, productivity, safety and security and customer service benefits, in addition to facilitating later phases of Master Plan work.
