  • Santa Ana/Garden Grove Streetcar Project, Orange County, California, New Starts Project Development
    Santa Ana/Garden Grove Streetcar Project Orange County, California New Starts Project Development (Rating Assigned November 2015) Summary Description Proposed Project: Streetcar 4.1 Miles, 10 Stations Total Capital Cost ($YOE): $288.74 Million Section 5309 New Starts Share ($YOE): $144.37 Million (50.0%) Annual Operating Cost (opening year 2020): $6.28 Million 7,500 Daily Linked Trips Current Year Ridership Forecast (2015): 2,320,700 Annual Linked Trips Overall Project Rating: Medium-High Project Justification Rating: Medium Local Financial Commitment Rating: Medium-High Project Description: The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) proposes to implement streetcar service between the Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center and the Harbor Boulevard Station in Garden Grove. A portion of the service is planned to use the historic Pacific Electric Railway right-of-way that is owned by OCTA. The project includes construction of a double-track alignment, an operation and maintenance facility, and the purchase of eight vehicles. Service is planned to operate every ten minutes during peak periods and every 15 minutes during off-peak periods and weekends. Project Purpose: OCTA is undertaking the proposed project to provide direct, convenient, all-day service to meet current and future travel demand in the densely developed project corridor. The corridor has a substantial transit-dependent population, with the median income only slightly above the U.S. poverty level and where 17.8 percent of residents do not own a car. Existing bus transit service in the corridor is limited due to existing geographic and physical constraints. Through use of the Pacific Electric Railway right-of-way, the project is not similarly constrained.

  • OC Streetcar Earns Envision Silver for Sustainable Infrastructure-For Release2
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: OC Streetcar Project Verified Envision® Silver by the Institute for Sustainable Infrastructure WASHINGTON, D.C. - (May 21, 2019) - The Institute for Sustainable Infrastructure (ISI) announced today that the OC Streetcar project, managed by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), recently earned an Envision Silver rating for sustainable infrastructure. This is the 15th Envision-verified project in the state, and the first modern streetcar project in California to receive Envision recognition. The project helps OCTA and the cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove reach their goals to increase transportation options and improve transit connectivity. The $407.7 million project, which is expected to begin operation in 2022, will operate along a 4.15-mile route that connects the bustling Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center (SARTC) — providing regional rail, OCTA bus, and intercity and international bus services — to a new multimodal hub at Harbor Boulevard/Westminster Avenue in Garden Grove. The project is being constructed and will be funded primarily through a combination of local, state and federal funds, including California Climate Investments and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). The project recently received a $149 million Full Funding Grant Agreement from the FTA―the first modern streetcar to receive a New Starts FFGA and the largest ever New Starts commitment to a streetcar project. Using the Envision framework helped the project support sustainability and environmental commitments for the funding agencies, including measures to mitigate environmental impacts; reduce greenhouse gas emissions; provide benefits to disadvantaged communities; and drive economic, environmental and public health benefits. 1 Developed as a collaboration between OCTA and the cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove, the project is anticipated to play an important role in improving transit accessibility for transit-dependent residents and relieving congestion at major streets and local freeways by providing east-west connections.

  • Edmonton's Hanover 601 Streetcar Returned to Germany
    Edmonton’s Hanover 601 Streetcar returned to Germany After more than a decade in Edmonton, “Hanover 601”, the red and white streetcar that plied the rails atop the world’s highest streetcar bridge, has been returned to its native Germany to celebrate the 125th anniversary of public transit in Hanover. It will become part of a museum collection in that city. The streetcar was sold for $1.00 and departed Edmonton on September 16th. The six-axle high performance car dates from 1970 and was one of two, 600 built by Linke-Hoffman-Busch with Kiepe electrics, and 601 built by Düwag with Siemens equipment, as prototypes to replace the Hanover streetcar fleet. After testing, the operator ÜSTRA decided on eight-axle cars, and so the pair were returned to their respective builders. Boston and San Francisco wanted to bring 601 over as a prototype for a joint fleet renewal program, but this was nixed by Nixon who insisted on home grown vehicles, resulting in the disastrous SLRV design by Boeing Vertol with bodies from Japan. Düwag modified the 601 design to develop the U2 LRT car for Frankfurt, and it was subsequently modified for Edmonton, Calgary and San Diego. When Edmonton’s LRT line was being designed, ETS’ Robert Clark, having established a connection with the Düwag management, suggested a tour of North American cities with 601, but Düwag’s General Manager replied to the effect that Düwag built the best streetcars in the world and needed no such demonstration. About that time, Siemens decided to diversify its medical operation in Canada and brought along Düwag, going from a sub-contractor to prime, with the Edmonton order being key.

  • Central Harbor Boulevard Corridor Transit Study
    December 14, 2017 To: Transit Committee From: Darrell Johnson, Chief Executive Officer Subject: Central Harbor Boulevard Transit Corridor Study Overview In August 2015, the Orange County Transportation Authority initiated the Central Harbor Boulevard Transit Corridor Study to analyze transit options in the Harbor Boulevard corridor. The study scope was amended in October 2016 to also evaluate transit connections between the Anaheim Resort and the Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center. In February 2017, 12 draft conceptual alternatives were presented for review and comment, and this update presents the results of the conceptual alternatives analysis. Recommendations A. Direct staff to offer presentations of the study results to the city councils in the study area, and return to the Board of Directors with a status report when completed. B. Direct staff to continue to work with technical staff from each of the corridor cities and the California Department of Transportation to identify key issues that would need to be addressed during any subsequent study efforts. Background Harbor Boulevard is one of the Orange County Transportation Authority’s (OCTA) most productive transit corridors with eight percent of the countywide daily bus boardings. While OCTA operates a high frequency of service in the study area, much more could be done to improve the quality, convenience, and visibility of the service for residents, employees, and tourists alike. The study area is characterized by some of the highest population and employment densities in the county. Moreover, the Anaheim Resort is home to the county’s largest employer (Disneyland), and is an international tourist destination that attracts 27 million annual visitors.
