  • Chapter 4 – Passenger Rail Systems
    The Texas Department of Transportation anticipates issuing an amendment to this report in early 2014 to reflect recent CHAPTER FOUR – PASSENGER RAIL developments on important rail initiatives in the state. Chapter 4 – Passenger Rail Systems To improve the coordination of the planning, construction, operation and maintenance of a statewide passenger rail system in the State of Texas, S.B. 1382 (Section 201.6012- 6013, Transportation Code), an act passed by the 81st Texas Legislature and approved by the governor on June 19, 2009, requires TxDOT to prepare and update annually a long-term plan for a statewide passenger rail system. The plan must include the following information useful for the development of the vision, goals, and objectives for the passenger rail system for Texas: • A description of existing and proposed passenger rail systems; • Information regarding the status of passenger rail systems under construction; • An analysis of potential interconnectivity difficulties; • Ridership projections for proposed passenger rail projects; and • Ridership statistics for existing passenger systems. This chapter provides the information required by Section 201.6012-6013, Transportation Code, plus additional information pertinent to understanding the challenges, issues, and opportunities for developing passenger rail services in Texas. Passenger rail services are divided into six categories in this chapter and are defined as follows: • High-speed rail is defined as rail operating at speeds of at least 150 mph non- stop or with limited stops between cities. • Intercity passenger rail is defined as rail serving several cities operating at slower speeds than high speed over long-distances with more frequent stops. • Commuter and regional rail is defined as rail primarily serving work commuters between communities in an urban area or region.

  • Iriving-3 Pe/Ea
    NOTICE OF INTENT FOR THE DART IRVING‐3 LRT EXTENSION TO DFW AIRPORT SUMMARY: The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) intend to prepare an environmental assessment (EA) for the DART Irving-3 (DFW Extension) light rail alignment on Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (DFW Airport) property in Dallas and Tarrant counties, Texas. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), having jurisdiction over airports, is being requested to be a cooperation agency in this study. This line segment would provide a direct connection to DFW Airport from DART’s Northwest Corridor to Irving/DFW alignment (also known as the Orange Line). The EA will be prepared in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), as amended. The project will be funded through a combination of local funds and funds apportioned to DART from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Urbanized Area Formula Program (UAFP) funding under 49 USC §5307 (Section 15). This program (49 U.S.C. 5307) makes federal resources available to urbanized areas and to Governors for transit capital and operating assistance in urbanized areas and for transportation related planning. While eligible purposes include a wide range of planning, design and capital investments, DART intends to use federal funding the capital investments in a new fixed guideway light rail system to extend the Orange Line to DFW Airport Terminal A. The Irving-3 (DFW Extension) project is the third stage of the Northwest Corridor to Irving/DFW LRT alignment (Orange Line). Previous studies relevant to the Northwest Corridor include the Northwest Corridor Major Investment Study (MIS), completed by DART in 2000, and the Northwest Corridor LRT Line to Irving and DFW Airport Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS), which was finalized in July 2008.
