He stated that the Pascack Valley Line is the only line that will not have a late train on weekdays. He suggested that late night bus service should be operated to replace train number 1601. William Henderson, Executive Director of the PCAC read a statement on behalf of Randy Glucksman, Chair, Metro-North Railroad Commuter Council and the Permanent Citizens Advisory Committee to the MTA, regarding the New Jersey Transit’s service cuts that affect Pascack Valley Line riders. A copy of Mr. Glucksman’s statement is filed with the records of this meeting. Upon motion duly made and seconded, the members of the Committee present approved the minutes of the June 22, 2015 Metro-North Committee meeting. There were no changes to the work plan. MTA METRO-NORTH RAILROAD PRESIDENT’S REPORT President Giulietti discussed service reliability, noting that reliability continues to improve. In June, east of Hudson system-wide performance operated at 94%; peak service continues to operate reliably and weekend service operated slightly above 95%. Infrastructure constraints contributed to 45% of train delay minutes in June, a 25% reduction from May with 98.1% of trains arriving within 10 minutes of schedule and only 1% of trains delayed greater than 15 minutes. Consist compliance in June 2015 was 99.6%. In May 2015, the Mean Distance Between Failure was above goal. In May 2015, west of Hudson service operated at 97.6%. President Giulietti reported that overall customer complaints have decreased 47% since January and have been on a continual decline, despite a slight uptick in June. Complaints concerning late or canceled trains have decreased 76% since January. President Giulietti also reported on ridership during the month of June 2015, noting that east of Hudson total rail ridership increased 0.9% compared to the comparable period of 2014; rail commutation ridership increased 1.7%; rail non-commutation ridership decreased 0.3% and managed connecting services ridership increased 5.5%. In June 2015, ridership on the Hudson Rail Link increased 7.5% compared to the comparable period of 2014, ridership on the Haverstraw-Ossining Ferry increased 3.5% and ridership on the Newburgh-Beacon Ferry decreased 1.2%. Actual west of Hudson ridership data for June 2015 is not yet available. Year-to-date May 2015 total system ridership was 1.3% above the comparable period of 2014 and 0.6% below budget. President Giulietti continued his report with a discussion of a July 1 incident wherein the northern span of the Devon Moveable Bridge that carries tracks one and three was stuck in the open position, leaving only the southern span that carries tracks two and four in service under a 15 mile per hour speed restriction, causing rush hour delays of 15 minutes. In response to the failure, President Giulietti with Metro-North and Connecticut Department of Transportation (CDOT) personnel assessed the damage and identified the repairs needed to close and lock the span. The northern span was closed the following day, permitting the southern span to resume operations at the normal 45 miles per hour speed limit. The cause of the failure is under investigation. In May, the CDOT and Metro-North began work on the bridge involving steel repairs, a new wooden deck and new miter rails on the Track 3 span. Its completion by early November is a prerequisite to the next and final phase of CDOT's overhead catenary wire replacement project. The steel repair and track project was delayed by approximately one week due to the failure. In order to get the project back on schedule, track 1 remained out of service until July 20 with minimal impacts on service. President Giulietti ________________________________________________________________________________ Master Page # 7 of 317 - Metro-North and Long Island Committees Meeting 9/21/2015 thanked Metro-North and CDOT forces for all their efforts in addressing this incident and making the necessary repairs to the bridge. President Giulietti concluded his report with a discussion of the MWBE Outreach Event to be held in Tarrytown for Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprises. He reported that Metro-North’s and MTA’s Departments of Diversity and Civil Rights (DDCR) have teamed up with the joint venture firms of Skanska-ECCO III for an outreach event to inform prospective firms of subcontracting opportunities for the Croton-Harmon Shop replacement project.

  • 2009 MTA Annual Performance Review
    PERMANENT CITIZENS ADVISORY COMMITTEE TO THE MTA REPRESENTING MTA RIDERS SINCE 1981 2009 Annual Performance Review of The MTA and Its Operating Agencies Introduction The PCAC’s 2009 Performance Review marks our third report summarizing the accomplishments and continuing challenges of the MTA and its operating agencies. This report addresses a number of broad themes such as leadership, transparency, organizational structure, service performance, communication, and accessibility. These themes relate to the ability of the MTA and its operating agencies to deliver service effectively to the riders that we represent. While PCAC is vitally concerned about the critical issue of the almost $800 million operating funding shortfall from Albany, which is part of ongoing dialogues that the PCAC and its Councils maintain with public officials and the MTA operating agencies, this larger issue is outside the scope of this report. The PCAC is encouraged by the MTA leadership’s initial steps to make the overall organization more effective and efficient, and we intend our report to complement this effort. At the same time we are well aware that internal efficiencies are not enough to prevent serious damage to the system due to state funding shortfalls.1 The PCAC recognizes that some of the issues raised in the report are the subject of ongoing work by the MTA and its agencies, the body of this document addresses issues pertaining to the 2009 calendar year. Several related developments from 2010 are included as footnotes to the Review. The PCAC and its Councils are not legislatively mandated to address the operations of MTA Bridges and Tunnels or MTA Long Island Bus; consequently they are not addressed in this document.

    Town of Riverhead Comprehensive Plan November 2003 Pursuant to section 272-a of the town law Town of Riverhead Comprehensive Plan November 2003 Prepared by: Town of Riverhead Planning Board Town of Riverhead Planning Department 200 Howell Avenue Riverhead, NY 11901 Abeles Phillips Preiss & Shapiro, Inc. 434 Sixth Avenue, fifth floor New York, New York 10011 In consultation with: Land Ethics, Inc. 201 East Liberty Street, Suite 16 Ann Arbor, Michigan 48104 Dunn Engineering Associates 66 Main Street Westhampton Beach, New York 11978 Town of Riverhead • 200 Howell Avenue • Riverhead, New York 11901 1. Introduction Riverhead is a community rich in natural, historic, and scenic resources that is experiencing powerful forces of change. Riverhead continues to be the most important agricultural community in Suffolk County and one of the most important in the State. Riverhead's unique landscape also includes waterfront areas on the Great Peconic Bay, Flanders Bay, and Long Island Sound; portions of the Central Pine Barrens and the scenic Peconic River; and distinctive bluffs and woodlands along the Sound. The Town has an historic Main Street and hamlet centers, like Jamesport and Aquebogue. With change, there are both opportunities and risks. Enterprise Park at Calverton promises to attract new businesses and jobs. Increasing tourism is drawing more visitors into downtown, Jamesport hamlet, and the wine country, where they spend money on overnight accommodations, cultural events and attractions, meals, and specialty items like antiques and crafts. Retailers along Route 58 are drawing shoppers from the entire East End, as well as in the western part of Suffolk County.

  • 9. Transportation Element
    TOWN OF RIVERHEAD COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, November 2003 9. Transportation Element 9.1 VISION STATEMENT Route 25 and Route 58 should remain Riverhead’s primary east-west traffic corridors, while other east-west roads are discouraged from being used as bypass routes. Road improvements throughout Riverhead should be undertaken in a manner that is sensitive to the Town's residential neighborhoods and its historic, scenic, and natural resources. Downtown and the hamlet centers should be oriented to transit, pedestrians, and bicycles, and commercial sites through Riverhead should be accessible via bus, by bike, and on foot. 9-1 TOWN OF RIVERHEAD COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, November 2003 As industry, commerce, housing, and tourism grow in Riverhead, it is inevitable that demands on the transportation system will increase. As is the case on the rest of Long Island and indeed much of the country, auto travel is the mode of choice for an overwhelming majority of travelers, meaning that Riverhead's roadway system will feel the most immediate impacts of growing travel demands. Most auto traffic in Riverhead is currently concentrated along the Route 58 corridor and in the downtown area. Riverhead experiences a great deal of both local and regional traffic. The Long Island Expressway (LIE or I-495) dead ends into Route 58, meaning the eastbound traffic is forced to use either Route 58, Route 25, or the combination of Route 24 and Route 105 to reach points farther east on the North Fork. The Route 58 commercial corridor has been developing and will continue to grow into a destination shopping hub, and the North Fork is becoming a major regional tourist destination.
