Section 14036 of the Government Code requires the Department to produce a five-year Rail Passenger Development Plan every other year. Caltrans is producing this ten-year California Rail Passenger Program Report, which includes all of the information required by Section 14036 for the five-year plan, in order to provide an extended planning horizon for rail passenger service in California. The Report examines passenger rail transportation in California. The Report reviews the current operations of State-supported intercity rail passenger service and outlines the Department's ten-year plan for intercity service for the period 1993/94 through 2002/03 for capital improvements and service expansions. Also, for the first time the State's rail report includes a summary of current operations and expansion programs for all forms of passenger rail: intercity, commuter and urban. Chapter V - The State Intercity Rail Capital Program displays a ten-year program of capital improvement projects to upgrade and expand the three State-supported intercity routes. The program totals $1.2 billion, of which 77 percent has identified funding sources.

  • 014 Receive Update on SMTIP[Icon]
    April 2020 Strategic Multimodal Transit Implementation Plan The Strategic Multimodal Transit Implementation Plan (SMTIP) is a ten-year strategic plan that provides insight over current and future travel patterns and demand within NCTD’s service area, and identifies service and capital improvements that will support NCTD’s efforts to provide high quality transit services to North County residents and visitors over the long-term. The plan fol- lows a previous study, the Land Use Transit Integration Study (LUTIS), which identified, through technical analysis and input from stakeholders and the community, priority corridors, focus areas, and preferred strategies to improve transit efficiency and overall attractiveness. Started in August 2019, the SMTIP builds upon the findings of the LUTIS for the design of a ten-year strategy. Over the fall of 2019 and winter of 2020, IBI Group and its team of consultants have focused their efforts on the following tasks: • A review of existing plans, policies, and transit data to provide an up-to-date profile of existing conditions as well as track current and future initiatives to consider and integrate into the strategic plan. • A Transfer Survey, where surveyors went to busy intermodal stations to talk to transit riders and document their trips, with a special focus on origin and destination, as well as the modal combinations that compose their everyday trips. • A Location-Based Services (LBS) Travel Demand Analysis, anonymous cellphone-based data was used to identify overall trip characteristics within and around NCTD’s service area to understand the volume, length, and destinations of all trips in the region.
