1 PROJECT OVERVIEW INTRODUCTION The Coast Daylight Implementation Plan represents the efforts of the Coast Rail Coordinating Council (CRCC) to increase passenger service on the Coast Route. The route has service now, provided by the Coast Starlight and San Diegan trains. The Starlight runs through the length of the corridor from San Jose to Los Angeles. There is one northbound train and one southbound train daily. The San Diegans (now transitioning to a new name, “Surfliners”) serve San Luis Obispo from the south. Like the Coast Starlight, there is one Surfliner a day in each direction. No Surfliners operate north of San Luis Obispo. The purpose of this document is to outline an implementation plan for the Coast Daylight. Start- up is scheduled for late 2001. While the timeline is tight, it is achievable, but only with goodwill and best efforts of all the stakeholders involved toward the common goal of a new intercity rail service between San Francisco and Los Angeles. This implementation plan consists of the following elements: · The purpose, vision, and operating plan for the Daylight start-up; · A financial plan covering the first three years of operation; · What is needed in terms of operating agreements between the operators and the right-of- way (ROW) owners or their representatives; · Feedback on the operating plan from communities to be served by the Coast Daylight; and · A description of next steps required to implement the vision of the Coast Daylight. SERVICE PURPOSE, VISION AND OPERATING PLAN Purpose The purpose of the Coast Daylight will be three-fold. First, it will reestablish intercity passenger service between downtown San Francisco and downtown Los Angeles for the first time in 30 years. Second, it will better link the major population, cultural and commercial centers of Northern and Southern California. Third, it will bridge a major gap in the California rail passenger program by increasing intercity passenger service north of San Luis Obispo and the San Francisco Bay Area by 100 percent. Only Amtrak’s Coast Starlight travels north of San Luis Obispo at the present time. Vision In practical terms, the Coast Daylight will be a daily service, with trains leaving each terminal before 8 a.m. and arriving at their destination around 7 p.m. It will operate on the Peninsula 345450

  • Capitol Corridor Service Performance
    CAPITOL CORRIDOR SERVICE PERFORMANCE In July 2016, the Capitol Corridor had one of its best months in the history of the service. Ridership was the highest ever, with a total of 128,655 passengers, a 1.7% year‐over‐year (YOY) increase. Revenue was up 4.6% compared to July 2015. Compared to June 2016, On‐ Time Performance (OTP) slipped slightly from 96% to 95%, yet was still above the FY16 standard of 90%. The Year‐To‐Date (YTD) results continue to be in positive territory. Compared to FY15, FYTD16 ridership and revenue are up 5.5%, with the System Operating Ratio at 55%, five percentage points above the 50% standard. YTD OTP is 94%, which keeps the Capitol Corridor in the #1 spot for service reliability in the national Amtrak intercity passenger rail network. The FYTD16 customer satisfaction scores (through June 2016) are at 89% “Highly Satisfied”, one point above the FY16 standard of 88%. The following are ridership highlights for July 2016: Average weekend ridership for July was down 7% versus July 2015. To address these continued decreases in weekend ridership, the CCJPA is modifying the weekend/holiday train schedule effective August 22, 2016, to slot trains at times that align with typical weekend travel patterns. Average July weekday ridership yielded a 9% increase thanks to continued growth on the trains serving San Jose/Silicon Valley and Placer County stations. Amtrak has sent detailed performance results (see attached) for June 2016 and provided below is a summary of the attached tables: OTP: June 2016 system end‐point OTP was a stellar 96% compared to 93% for May 2016.
