  • Receive an Update on the Affordable Student Transit Pass Pilot Program
    Memorandum 8.2 DATE: September 15, 2016 SUBJECT: Affordable Student Transit Pass Pilot Program Update RECOMMENDATION: Receive an update on the Affordable Student Transit Pass Pilot Program. Summary The 2014 Transportation Expenditure Plan (TEP) includes implementation of an affordable student transit pass pilot program in Alameda County. Its purpose is to test and evaluate different pilot program designs of an affordable transit pass program over a three-year horizon to identify successful model programs that could be expanded and sustained with additional funding sources after the pilot program period. In May 2016, the Commission approved the school sites for Year One of the program (2016-2017 school year), general program parameters for each site, and the shortlist of 36 schools which is the potential pool for additional school sites in year 2 of the pilot program if feasible and if funding is available. During summer 2016, the program parameters were refined in close coordination with each school site to support an effective pilot approach to meet the program goals, and staff entered into agreements and contracts with the applicable transit agencies and school districts. Pilot programs were launched at the school sites in Alameda County that are receiving transit passes. Background The Alameda County Transportation Commission (Alameda CTC) has undertaken the development, implementation, and evaluation of an Affordable Student Transit Pass Program (Affordable STPP) which it is piloting in middle schools and high schools in the four Alameda County planning areas starting this 2016-2017 school year. This pilot program provides a vital opportunity to assess student transportation needs in the county and develop an approach to meet those needs through implementation of a pass program.

  • Title VI Fare Equity Analysis for Discontinuing the BART Discounted Orange Ticket Program for Students at Participating Middle and High Schools
    Title VI Fare Equity Analysis for Discontinuing the BART Discounted Orange Ticket Program for Students at Participating Middle and High Schools Prepared by: San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District Office of Civil Rights June 14, 2018 Table of Contents I. Title VI Fare Equity Analysis Executive Summary Section 1: Introduction Section 2: Minority Disparate Impact & Low Income Disproportionate Burden Analysis Section 3: Public Participation Section 4: Equity Findings for Discontinuing Orange Ticket II. Public Participation Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY To ensure compliance with federal and state civil rights regulations, including but not limited to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and FTA Circular 4702.1B [dated October 1, 2012 (Circular)], BART must perform an analysis of any fare or fare media change to determine if the change has a disparate impact on minority riders or a disproportionate burden on low-income riders. In accordance with the Circular, BART makes this determination by comparing the analysis results against a threshold, as defined in its Disparate Impact and Disproportionate Burden Policy. The fare change discussed in this report is the discontinuation of the BART Orange magnetic stripe ticket, which is a fare type. The Orange ticket is sold at participating middle and high schools at a 50% discount; students pay $16 and receive $32 in BART value. The Orange ticket program has been in effect since the late 1990s in order to provide students a discount on school-related trips they make during the week and currently has 147 participating schools. FTA-approved methodology has been used to access the effects of a fare type change; draws on data from BART ridership surveys and BART automated fare collection equipment; and includes public outreach undertaken in accordance with BART’s Public Participation Plan to receive public input on discontinuing the BART Plus ticket from low-income, minority, and limited-English-proficient (LEP) riders.
