1.1 BACKGROUND OF THIS STUDY The 2010 Grand Boulevard Initiative Multimodal Corridor Plan (GBI Corridor Plan) identified the need for improvements in both transportation and land use along the El Camino Corridor.1 In San Mateo County, the El Camino Corridor is expected to experience an increase of over 24,800 households and 90,800 jobs between 2005 and 2035 according to 2007 Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) projections. Several past studies identified Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) as feasible along the Corridor. Under this backdrop, the El Camino Real BRT Phasing Plan seeks to set forth a strategy to address mobility issues by attracting ridership and achieving cost-effective performance. The Phasing Plan seeks to identify and develop the following: Benefits and costs of a BRT system; Essential system components; Stakeholder support; Ridership demand analysis; Operating and capital cost estimates; Network integration with existing and future SamTrans, VTA and Muni bus systems; Funding strategy; and Phasing and implementation plan. 1.2 INTRODUCTION TO THE CORRIDOR The El Camino Real Corridor connects San Francisco to San Jose along the Peninsula. El Camino Real (Royal Road in Spanish) is also the historical 600-mile route that connected the former Alta California’s 21 missions from San Diego to Sonoma. For this study the Corridor is defined as the portion of El Camino Real that traverses San Mateo County and the small section in Santa Clara County from the San Mateo County Border to the Palo Alto (University) Caltrain Station. 1 Grand Boulevard Multimodal Transportation Corridor Plan, The Grand Boulevard Initiative, October 2010. 1 El Camino Real BRT – Future Conditions Report September 2014 Figure 1-1 shows the extent of the study corridor. 1.3 PURPOSE OF THE FUTURE CONDITIONS REPORT The BRT Future Conditions Report is one of the tasks included in the BRT Phasing Plan Study. This report draws heavily on existing studies and plans, including those produced by the Grand Boulevard Initiative (GBI). It is intended to provide the reader with information on future land use and transportation conditions that helps in documenting the need to provide an enhanced bus transit system along the El Camino Corridor in San Mateo County.2 This report utilizes 2035 forecast data documented in the GBI Corridor Plan that was obtained through the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) Countywide model. It should be noted that ABAG recently adopted Plan Bay Area, an integrated long-range transportation and land-use/housing plan for the San Francisco Bay Area that includes projections through 2040; however a detailed assessment of future conditions using these updated forecasts was not available at time this report was published. This report presents baseline future conditions of the Corridor, including: Demographics and land use; Transit ridership demand projections; Planned developments and infrastructure projects that would affect travel demand along the corridor; Corridor street design concepts that exhibit “complete street” policies and standards; and GBI Corridor Plan transit recommendations. The increasing intensity of jobs and population, combined with a multi-jurisdictional desire to elevate El Camino Real to “complete street” status correlates with the El Camino Real BRT Phasing Plan’s investigation into enhanced bus service along the Corridor to improve mobility and access for all user types and activities. 2 The 2010 Grand Boulevard’s Initiative Multimodal Corridor Plan contains a more detailed assessment of future corridor conditions than described in this report. The Multimodal Corridor Plan can be accessed at: http://www.grandboulevard.net 1 El Camino Real BRT – Future Conditions Report September 2014 Figure 1-1 El Camino Corridor – San Mateo County 1 El Camino Real BRT – Future Conditions Report September 2014 2.0 FUTURE (2035) DEMOGRAPHIC CONDITIONS Future conditions of the El Camino Corridor have been modeled and analyzed through the GBI. The travel model used for the GBI was a version of the VTA Countywide model updated for the project. This section describes corridor demographics. 2.1 TRAVEL DEMAND MODEL OVERVIEW The VTA model covers 13 counties in and around the San Francisco Bay Area. The model was calibrated to 2000 Census data and validated to 2005 highway and transit observed conditions in 2008 during the development of VTA’s countywide long-range transportation plan (Valley Transportation Plan 2035). The model was also enhanced to model BRT alternatives explicitly in the mode choice equations using the results of market

  • Chapter 3: Environmental Setting and Consequences
    CHAPTER 3: ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING AND CONSEQUENCES CHAPTER 3: ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING AND CONSEQUENCES This chapter presents information on the environmental setting in the project area as well as the environmental consequences of the No-Electrification and Electrification Program Alternatives. Environmental issue categories are organized in alphabetical order, consistent with the CEQA checklist presented in Appendix A. The project study area encompasses the geographic area potentially most affected by the project. For most issues involving physical effects this is the project “footprint,” or the area that would be disturbed for or replaced by the new project facilities. This area focuses on the Caltrain corridor from the San Francisco Fourth and King Station in the City and County of San Francisco to the Gilroy Station in downtown Gilroy in Santa Clara County and also includes the various locations proposed for traction power facilities and power connections. Air quality effects may be felt over a wider area. 3.1 AESTHETICS 3.1.1 VISUAL OR AESTHETIC SETTING The visual or aesthetic environment in the Caltrain corridor is described to establish the baseline against which to compare changes resulting from construction of project facilities and the demolition or alteration of existing structures. This discussion focuses on representative locations along the railroad corridor, including existing stations (both modern and historic), tunnel portals, railroad overpasses, locations of the proposed traction power facilities and other areas where the Electrification Program would physically change above-ground features, affecting the visual appearance of the area and views enjoyed by area residents and users. For purposes of this analysis, sensitive visual receptors are defined as corridor residents and business occupants, recreational users of parks and preserved natural areas, and students of schools in the vicinity of the proposed project.

  • 3.0 Affected Environment
    Chapter 3 3.0 Affected Environment 3.1 Traffic and Transportation Systems This section presents an overview of the traffic and transportation systems in the vicinity of the Hercules ITC in Hercules, California, as well as along the broader I-80 corridor between the Carquinez and San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridges. The existing transportation modes include roadways, railways, and pedestrian/bicycle trails. The transportation portion of the proposed project includes development of a bus-to-train connection for an anticipated usage of up to 837 riders per day (Fehr & Peers 2009), extending John Muir Parkway, and providing a 220-space surface parking lot (on Block N) in the near- term. In the long-term, a transit area garage with approximately 450 spaces would be constructed. The proposed project would improve access to public mass transit and would be a benefit to the residents and workers in the vicinity of the Hercules ITC and the region. In fact, the majority of transit riders using the Hercules ITC are projected to come from the new residential units located within one-half mile of the transit center and the immediate surrounding cities and communities of Hercules, Pinole, and Rodeo-Crockett. Residents and commuters from the unincorporated communities of Contra Costa and Solano counties along I- 80 east of Hercules are also likely to utilize the Hercules ITC. The traffic related to the proposed project would result in minor net benefit to the area-wide transportation systems that serve the seven-million people who live in the Bay Area. Detailed traffic discussion, therefore, focuses on the cities of Hercules, Pinole, and Rodeo-Crockett (the area of western Contra Costa County).

  • Seventy-Five Years in California; a History of Events and Life in California
    Seventy-five years in California; a history of events and life in California THE first habitation in Yerba Buena, a tent dwelling erected in 1835 by Capt. Wm. A. Richardson, at the corner of Clay and Dupont streets, occupied the site of No. 18 on the view map. In July, 1836, Jacob Primer Leese built the first house, just south of Richardson's location. The residence and place of business of William Heath Davis, author of “Seventy-five Years in California,” is marked No. 7. Yerba Buena Cove appears in its natural condition with the waters of the Bay nearly touching Montgomery Street. The Laguna Salada, or Saltwater Lagoon, now almost forgotten, is shown where Montgomery and Jackson streets cross. It was over this tidal inlet that William S. Hinckley, when Alcade, built the first bridge in California in 1844. This rare view of the San Francisco of 1846-7 fittingly illustrates the early days of the city which William Heath Davis describes. To the north of the home of Wm. A. Leidesdorff—No. 11—Wm. Heath Davis built the first brick building of more than one story in California in 1849, leasing it to the U. S. Treasury for a custom house. The flagpole upon which Capt. John B. Montgomery raised the American flag July 9, 1846, was removed from the Plaza in 1850 and re-erected in front of the Davis building, where it was destroyed by the fire of May 4, 1851. California Street was laid out by Jasper o'Farrell, who enlarged the survey of the town made by Jean Jacques Vioget in 1839.
