  • Metro Metro 2017 − 2026 Cip
    METRO METRO METRO 2017 − 2026 CIP Metro Funding Project Description The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA/Metro) is a unique federal-state-local partnership formed to provide mass transit service to the Washington Metropolitan region. WMATA's Adopted FY 2017 - FY 2022 Capital Budget consists of $6.0 billion of critical system projects necessary to maintain the Metrobus, Metrorail, and Metroaccess systems over the next six years. The program focuses heavily on replacement / rehab of the system's aging rail infrastructure with minimal enhancement investments. Also included is the funding of an additional 220 7000-series railcars and associated rail power system upgrades. These additional railcars will be used to retire all 192 of the original 5000-series railcars, one of the most unreliable series in the current fleet. The remaining 28 railcars will be used for minimal capacity expansion along the red line. Funding for the WMATA capital program is from a combination of state, federal, regional and local sources. For Arlington, the total adopted six-year funding commitment is approximately $186 million, consisting of $106 million of annual subsidy payments, and $80 million of planned debt issuance by WMATA. Over ten-years, Arlington has programmed $280 million, with increased funding in the out-years primarily for service expansion projects. This fully funds Arlington's baseline funding of WMATA, and funds $55 million of planned debt issuance based on historical capital program execution rates. A combination of general obligation bonds, state grants and regional gas tax are used to fund Arlington's share of WMATA subsidy. A new multi-year capital funding agreement is currently being drafted among WMATA contributing jurisdictions to cover fiscal years 2018 -2023 and is anticipated to begin in the fall of 2016.

  • Transit Performance in the I-66 Inside the Beltway Corridor
    TRANSIT PERFORMANCE IN THE I-66 INSIDE THE BELTWAY CORRIDOR June 2018 This report summarizes the performance of public transportation systems serving the I-66 inside the Beltway corridor in Northern Virginia. In December 2017, the Commonwealth of Virginia instituted dynamic tolling during peak periods along I-66, from the Capital Beltway in Fairfax County to the Roosevelt Bridge leading to Washington, D.C. This stretch of roadway was previously a restricted facility, limited to high occupancy vehicles (HOV2) during commuting hours, inbound (east) in the morning and outboard (west) in the afternoon. Upon implementation of the dynamic tolling, the Northern Virginia Transportation Commission (NVTC) initiated the I-66 Commuter Choice program, a multimodal grant program that funds transit and transportation demand management services to complement the tolling in order to move more people through the corridor during peak periods. As part of this effort, NVTC began tracking the overall transit performance changes along this corridor. OVERVIEW Public transportation plays an important role along the I-66 inside the Beltway corridor, transporting approximately 40 percent of commuters during peak periods. That’s a more than three times greater transit mode share than Northern Virginia as a whole. Public transit ridership along the corridor generally follows regional and national public transportation ridership trends, which have showed some decline. In contrast to this trend, express buses, some of which are funded by the I-66 Commuter Choice program, experienced strong and growing ridership, while demonstrating faster and more reliable running times due to I-66 tolling and resulting traffic condition improvements. KEY FINDINGS • Public transportation plays a vital role along the I-66 corridor.

  • Service Planning Process, Highlights Detailed Assumptions Made During This Process, and Documents Characteristic of the Proposed Service Plan
    Crystal City/Potomac Yard Corridor Interim Transit Improvement Project Draft Technical Memorandum: Service Implementation Plan December 2005 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Overall Concept and Project Phasing The Crystal City/Potomac Yard Corridor Interim Transit Improvement Project is focused on developing an implementation program for interim transit improvements in the corridor running between the Pentagon/Pentagon City and Crystal City, in Arlington, to Potomac Yard and the Braddock Road Metrorail Station in Alexandria. These improvements will coincide with the development of Potomac Yard and redevelopment in Pentagon City and Crystal City. It is anticipated that this interim plan would precede implementation of a higher capacity transit system in the corridor. This memorandum outlines the service planning process, highlights detailed assumptions made during this process, and documents characteristic of the proposed service plan. The focus of the implementation will be phased steps toward rationalizing corridor transit service. This phased implementation will transition from multiple providers to a uniform, branded, premium service running between southern termini at the Braddock Road Metrorail Station and Potomac Yard Town Center, and northern termini at the Pentagon and Pentagon City. This memorandum discusses three phases of a corridor-wide transit implementation plan (immediate, short-term, and mid-term) but focuses on the mid-term (4 to 7 year) time frame, wherein a uniform branded service is assumed to extend the length of the study corridor. 2.0 EXISTING CONDITIONS 2.1 Existing Transit Service in the Potomac Yard area The Crystal City/Potomac Yard corridor is currently served by six Metrobus routes and one Arlington Transit (ART) route, described below.
