CAO Task Force Executive Summary Executive Summary CAO Task Force Review/Recommendations FY 19 VRE Preliminary Budget as of 12-1-2017 December 7, 2017 CAO Task Force Recommendations Supports a 3% increase ($517,508) in total jurisdictional subsidy as programmed in the six year plan. This increase pales in comparison to an estimated $8.75 million loss in state CIP capital and another $3 estimated million loss in state support for railroad access fees and debt service assistance in FY 20 due to the expiration of State Capital Project Revenue bond funding. Supports the $1 increase in VRE Amtrak Step up ticket from $7 to $8 per trip to offset an Amtrak contractual cost increase from $12 to $13 per trip in FY 19 Supports the additional 1 FTE Grants Accountant in Finance. VRE’s adopted CIP has grown from $11.2 million in FY 14 to $60 million in FY 19. The additional administrative burden of tracking multiple grant awards from an increasing number of sources and the increased complexity of grant reimbursement requests justifies the need for additional staff.

  • Washington, DC to Richmond Third Track Feasibility Study HOUSE
    REPORT OF THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF RAIL AND PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION Washington, DC to Richmond Third Track Feasibility Study TO THE GOVERNOR AND THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF VIRGINIA HOUSE DOCUMENT NO. 78 COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA RICHMOND 2006 Third Track Feasibility Study December 2006 WASHINGTON, D.C. TO RICHMOND THIRD TRACK FEASIBILITY STUDY PREFACE This study was requested by the 2006 General Assembly session in HB 5012. In addition to an analysis of the feasibility of constructing a third track, this study responds to the General Assembly’s direction to expand the scope to: (i) Identify needed right-of-way parallel to existing tracks, including right-of-way owned by CSX or by other parties; (ii) Identify major environmental issues; (iii) Develop an implementation plan based on the most optimal options, including the schedules for each phase of the project as well as financing for the project; (iv) Review legal and regulatory issues; and (v) Estimate the cost of powering passenger trains by electricity for a Third Track from Washington, D.C. to Richmond. The Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT) is charged with ensuring that the Commonwealth of Virginia achieves the highest public benefit for the dollars invested in our rail programs. There is no doubt that this is a high priority freight and passenger rail corridor that will require significant investment in order to maintain and improve mobility for people and goods. DRPT is taking a strategic approach in studying this high priority corridor. Our new approach is based on establishing public benefits, identifying public/private partnership opportunities, and providing realistic cost estimates based on a comprehensive plan that identifies all of the improvements and issues that need to be addressed in the provision of reliable, sustainable, expandable, and efficient freight and passenger rail operations.

  • Basis of Design Technical Criteria for Concept & Preliminary Engineering
    February 24, 2015 Basis of Design Technical Criteria for Concept & Preliminary Engineering Final Report APPROVALS This document was developed by the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation (DRPT) with significant input and general concurrence from the following major stakeholders: Federal Railroad Administration (FRA); Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT); CSX Transportation (CSXT); Amtrak; and the Virginia Railway Express (VRE). The basis of design (BOD) was developed using an iterative process with formal reviews and comments provided by the major stakeholders with responses by DRPT until general concurrence was achieved with FRA, VDOT, CSXT, Amtrak and VRE. This basis of design shall be used by all members of the DRPT and its consultants and contractors for the development of an EIS and preliminary engineering for the Washington, D.C. to Richmond Southeast High Speed Rail project (DC2RVA). The purpose of the document is to provide a basis of design for the development of conceptual alternatives for evaluation in the EIS study and preliminary engineering for the preferred alternative only. It is anticipated that the DC2RVA project will be constructed in the future in a series of incrementally phased design-bid-build or design-build packages. Final design and detailed engineering would be provided in the future prior to the construction of each package in accordance with the requirements of applicable design codes, laws, and major stakeholder requirements at the time the phased projects are implemented. Packages in the corridor may be constructed concurrently or in later years depending on funding availability.
