1 El Camino Real Bus Rapid Transit Conceptual Engineering Los Altos Council Workshop January 24, 2012
2 Agenda Introduction Growth in the El Camino Real Corridor Benefits of BRT El Camino Real BRT Decision Process Staff Recommendation Walk the Alignment Looking Ahead
3 Why is VTA proposing BRT? VTA wants to improve the quality of service and level of ridership and reduce operating costs Direction from VTA s Board of Directors BRT Strategic Plan (2009) Policy direction from cities Grand Boulevard Initiative City General Plans and Specific Plans Cost-effective, high-capacity transit solution in growing corridors
4 Bay Area BRT Livermore (LAVTA) opened January 2011 Santa Clara Alum Rock in San Jose (VTA): Final Design East Bay in Oakland/San Leandro (AC Transit): PE Van Ness Avenue in SF (SFCTA): Environmental Geary Blvd in SF (SFCTA): Environmental El Camino Real in Santa Clara County (VTA): Conceptual Stevens Creek Boulevard: Santa Clara County (VTA): RFP

7 Growth in Traffic Without an El Camino transit improvement Vehicle Miles Traveled increase by 35% Vehicle Hours Traveled increase by 100% PM peak hour traffic volumes increase 12% on El Camino Real 35% on Central Expressway 63% on Foothill Expressway
8 Transit Benefits of BRT Fast service Branded service Alignment flexibility Rail-like amenities (wi-fi, pre-paid fare, real-time information) Improves efficiency - cost per rider ($2.58) Produces mode shift from auto to transit Increased ridership Lowers operating cost Opens new transit markets
9 City Benefits of BRT $240 Million invested in El Camino Real corridor Reduced greenhouse gases Reduced congestion Reduced vehicle miles travelled Bike lanes Improved pedestrian facilities: porkchop removal, increased crossings, shorter crossings Enhanced landscaping Opportunity for transformation of El Camino Real
10 El Camino Real BRT Where We Are in the Process Highest Ridership in VTA System 20% Strategic Plan Adopted in 2009 Grand Boulevard Initiative Conceptual Engineering Environmental Process Design Construction
11 The Decision Process Preliminary Investment Strategy Review by El Camino PAB Preliminary concurrence by cities Approval by VTA Board Environmental Review VTA Lead Agency for CEQA Cities comment on ED Caltrans Coordination FTA Small Starts
12 The Choice Before Us El Camino Real public right of way is 120 feet wide from Palo Alto through Santa Clara (The Alameda is 115 feet) Many competing interests for street right of way Autos Transit On street parking Bikes Pedestrians Landscaped median Which interests should get priority? Can all interests be accommodated?
13 The Choice Before Us Mixed Flow Lower capital expenditure Constrained by surrounding traffic Spot improvements at stations Longer travel times Higher operating costs Lower ridership
14 The Choice Before Us Dedicated BRT Lanes Provide separate lanes leaves 4 general purpose lanes Limits conflicts with other traffic Improved safety Less time at stations = faster service Higher level of branded service Complete streets treatment Higher ridership
15 4-Lane El Camino Real What does 4 lanes on El Camino Real look like? Redwood City Burlingame Menlo Park Photo: Google Street View Photo: Google Street View Photo: Google Street View
16 Preliminary Investment Strategy Dedicated BRT Lanes from Showers to Lafayette Based on areas of future congestion and analysis of ridership Mixed flow operations elsewhere
17 What Happens to Traffic With Preliminary Investment Strategy Greatly improve BRT travel time in PM peak hour EB from 107 min to 71 min (-34%) WB from 74 min to 53 min (-28%) Little impact to auto travel time EB from 58 min to 57 min WB from 43 min to 45 min Mode shift some people do switch from cars to transit Level of Service stays about the same 5 intersections at LOS F, but most with less delay Some traffic diverts to multiple other routes
18 What Happens to Traffic
19 Parking It s a policy decision Parking OR Bike Lanes Assumes preservation of a 16-foot median City makes the choice

80 Does BRT compete with Caltrain? No. Caltrain and the Valley Rapid service serve different types of travel markets. The Valley Rapid service focuses on short and medium range, all- day trips while Caltrain focuses on commute periods and longer trips. Caltrain is projected to have more riders than the system will be able to carry. Some of the overflow could be served by Valley Rapid.
