Cash Flow Analysis San Mateo County TOD Opportunity Study Appendix A Final Report Atherton Caltrain Station STATION AREA PROFILE: ATHERTON CALTRAIN STATION Atherton This profile presents existing conditions information and an assessment of opportunities and constraints for the Atherton station area in the Town of Atherton. The station area is defined as the area within ½-mile radius of the station. This information was collected through site visits, review of local plans, bus and rail transit schedules, data provided by SamTrans/Caltrain, data provided by the County Public Works and Assessor’s Office, and information provided by the Town of Atherton. Opportunities identified include results from the Atherton Caltrain Station preliminary market assessment, recommendations based on station access and connectivity to existing or planned activity centers, and potential to create a regulatory framework that encourages TOD. There may also be opportunities for leveraging funding, which are not addressed in this study. Constraints are based upon physical barriers in the built environment, ease of site availability or parcel assembly, or other political or environmental factors. Below is summary of TOD opportunities and constraints for the Atherton Caltrain station area: Opportunities • Future redevelopment is unlikely due Atherton’s restrictive regulatory framework. The only potential redevelopment sites are limited to the City Hall and Holbrook-Palmer Park sites. Constraints • Atherton’s existing policies do not allow any commercial development or new residential development. Residential density is capped at 3 units per acre. • The station is not visible from El Camino Real and is difficult to find. • There are no sidewalks in the station area and access is limited from the east side of the station. • Caltrain service is available on weekends only. Future service increases may be limited due to the proximity of the station to the Redwood City Caltrain Station, which offers a very high level of service (Baby Bullet service).

    May 7, 2019 Media Contact: Dan Lieberman, 650-508-6385 Samtrans and Caltrain Encourage Cycling on Bike to Work Day This Thursday

    NEWS May 7, 2019 Media Contact: Dan Lieberman, 650-508-6385 SamTrans and Caltrain Encourage Cycling on Bike to Work Day This Thursday, May 9, Bay Area bicyclists will participate by the thousands in the 25th Annual Bike to Work Day, an annual event that encourages commuters to choose bicycles over cars for their daily commute. SamTrans buses can carry two bikes on racks at the front of each bus, and two additional bikes are allowed inside the bus, depending on passenger loads. Some things to know: only single-rider, two-wheel bicycles are permitted. There is no age limit for riders using the bike racks or bringing bikes on board the bus. However, riders must be able to load and unload their bikes without help from the operator. On Caltrain, every train is equipped with at least two bike cars. Due to the popularity of the onboard bike program, capacity for bicyclists can be a challenge. Cyclists are encouraged to choose local trains with lighter ridership to ensure they are able to board if they want to test out biking to work for the first time. Some express and limited stop trains are already operating at or near capacity for onboard bikes. Each weekday approximately 6,000 bicyclists take a bike on the train, more than any other rail service in the country. While biking and taking public transit can work well together for first- and last-mile connections, as well as getting people out of their cars and off freeways, onboard capacity may be at its limit on Bike to Work Day.

As part of due process, City staff will evaluate the developer's proposal, and I believe it will take a couple of months before this issue comes before the Council to consider whether to initiate an amendment process. When it does, your thoughts and concerns will be considered. Thank you again for writing to us.

    Caltrain TIRCP Application Jan

    PENINSULA CORRIDOR JOINT POWERS AUTHORITY APPLICATION FOR 2018 TRANSIT AND INTERCITY RAIL CAPITAL PROGRAM FUNDS PROJECT NARRATIVE A. Project Title Page Project Title: Peninsula Corridor Electrification Expansion Project The Peninsula Corridor Electrification Expansion Project (EEP) includes a series of incremental investments in the 51-mile Caltrain Corridor between the 4th and King Station (San Francisco) and the Tamien Station (San Jose). These investments are focused on expanding and fully converting Caltrain’s mainline diesel fleet to electric trains. This investment builds on and leverages the existing Peninsula Corridor Electrification Project (PCEP) and supports the goals of the Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program (TIRCP), providing increased capacity and service flexibility, supporting state and interregional connectivity, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions through elimination of diesel service from the mainline Peninsula Corridor. In addition to providing immediate, direct benefits, the EEP also represents an incremental step within a larger program of development that will evolve the Peninsula Corridor in a way that supports the ridership, service levels, and connectivity goals contemplated in the draft 2018 State Rail Plan. The central component of Caltrain’s 2018 TIRCP application is the purchase of 96 additional Electric Multiple Units (EMU). This procurement will fully exercise all available options under Caltrain’s current contract with Stadler and will provide sufficient EMUs to fully electrify Caltrain’s mainline fleet, while also sustaining and expanding capacity to accommodate growing demand. In addition to requesting funds for the purchase of EMUs, Caltrain is also requesting a smaller amount funding for a series of associated projects that will equip the corridor to receive and operate a fully electrified fleet in a way that allows the railroad to reap the maximum benefit from its investments.
