Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority Overview of Metro’s Transportation Program Pam O’Connor Metro Chair July 25, 2007

Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) is.. the Regional Planner the Regional Builder the Regional Operator for the County’s 10 million people

Nation’s Second Largest Transportation System Average Daily Boardings (million) Metro Bus & Rail1.60 Municipal Partners & Metrolink Commuter Rail.40 Total LA County Transit System 2.00 Nation’s largest Clean-air fleet - >2,200 CNG buses 73 miles of Metro Rail – 63 stations 45 miles of Metro Transitways-26 stations 250 miles of Metro Rapid 425 HOV lane miles >730,000 people per day 250 miles of Metro funded Bikeways Metro Freeway Service & “Big Rig” Patrol service

The Challenge Strained Infrastructure Strained Financial Resources Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Emissions Impacts of Trade Corridors: “America’s Loading Dock” 25 % Population and Employment growth Increasing Congestion (1/3 of the state total) Everywhere to everywhere travel pattern

… it’s only going to get worse Over the next 25 years… 2-3 million more people 1 million more jobs 30 % more trips More complex travel Highway Speeds less than 20 mph Reduced transit performance >200% growth in Cargo Traffic

Metro Strategic Direction Manage Existing System Maximize System Efficiency Increase System Capacity Manage Demand

Metro’s Long Range Transportation Plan More… Transit (Rail/Bus) Car Pool lanes Goods Movement Ridesharing Bicycle Facilities Pedestrian Linkages Transit-Oriented Development

Metro Rail & Transitway Network 2 subway lines -130,000 riders 3 light rail lines -135,000 riders 3 Transitways -50,000 riders 2 LRTs const. >70,000 riders est. Under Construction

Metro Orange Line -Multi-modal Innovation 1/3 of new riders were US-101 commuters 2020 ridership estimates surpassed in 2006

Metro Rapid- Innovation Seamless Rapid Red design Three station styles Low-floor easy boarding seats Quieter CNG buses “Next-bus” display Bus Lanes

Metro Rapid-Build Upon Success

Los Angeles Bike-Transit Hub Network 1st Mile Challenge

Metro Car Pool Lanes NORTH LA COUNTY LOS ANGELES COUNTY HOV PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE ( ) Opening Date of HOV Projects Existing Freeway Strategic Plan Corridor Studies Produced by: Countywide Planning >730,000 people per day

AM Peak Period Speeds (in MPH) Freeway Arterial 2004No Build (2030) 2001 Constrained Plan (2030) 2001 Smart Growth/ Pricing Alternative (2025)

Setting the Framework for 2030 Meeting the travel needs of over 12 million people will require more than new infrastructure. It requires changes in travel behavior. Speed and Reliability could significantly improve and transit ridership would more than double if smart growth and pricing strategies are aggressively implemented.
