  2. Commuter Regional Rail

  3. United States Average • Speed: 33 mph • Trip: 24 miles • Cost Per Passenger Mile: $0.43 • Rail transit using ROW usually adapted from freight rail • Both clean diesel and electric are common; all recent new starts used clean diesel • Top speed is typically 60-90 mph, but speed impacted by station spacing Commuter Rail

  4. Light Rail

  5. United States Average • Speed:15 mph • Trip: 5 miles • Cost Per Passenger Mile: $0.70 • Rail transit using exclusive and mixed ROW • Almost all are electric, overhead power • Vehicles are faster, larger and require more complex construction vs. streetcar Light Rail

  6. Modern Streetcar

  7. United States Average • Speed: 9 mph • Trip:2 miles (estimate) • Cost Per Passenger Mile: $0.70 • Rail transit using street ROW • Similar to light rail bus smaller, slower vehicles, simpler construction • Almost all are electric, overhead power Streetcar

  8. Bus Rapid Transit

  9. United States Average: • Speed:20 mph • Trip: 5 miles (estimate) • Cost Per Passenger Mile: $1.00 • High speed, high capacity vs. fixed route • May include exclusive ROW, stations, signal priority, level boarding, prepaid fares Bus Rapid Transit

  23. Under SAFETEA-LU Project Development Project Construction Grant Agreement Alternatives Analysis • Develop and select locally preferred alternative (LPA) • Adopt LPA into fiscally constrained long range transportation plan • Complete environmental review process • Gain commitments of all non-5309 funding • Complete sufficient engineering and design • Construction Under MAP-21 • Complete environmental review process including developing and reviewing alternatives, selecting locally preferred alternative (LPA), and adopting it into fiscally constrained long range transportation plan • Gain commitments of all non-5309 funding • Complete sufficient engineering and design • Construction Project Development Expedited Grant Agreement Small Starts Project Development Process Legend = FTA approval = FTA evaluation, rating, and approval

  24. New Starts Project Development Process Under SAFETEA-LU Alternatives Analysis Preliminary Engineering Final Design Full Funding Grant Agreement • Develop and review alternatives • Select locally preferred alternative (LPA) • Adopt LPA into fiscally constrained long range transportation plan • Complete environmental review process • Gain commitments of at least 50% of non-New Starts funding • Gain commitments of all non-New Starts funding • Complete sufficient engineering and design • Construction Under MAP-21 • Gain commitments of all non-New Starts funding • Complete sufficient engineering and design • Complete environmental review process including developing and reviewing alternatives, selecting locally preferred alternative (LPA), and adopting it into the fiscally constrained long range transportation plan • Construction Project Development Engineering Full Funding Grant Agreement Legend = FTA approval = FTA evaluation, rating, and approval
