SR-101408-1B'~ ~;tYOf City Council Report Sanl.a nlonica"" City Council Meeting: October 14, 2008 Agenda Item: ~- g To: Mayor and City Council From: Stephanie Negriff, Director of Transit Services Subject: Short Range Transit Plan and Applications for Funds Recommended Action Staff recommends the City Council: 1. Authorize the City Manager to file the Fiscal Year 2009-2011 Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP) with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro). 2. Adopt the attached resolution authorizing the City .Manager to file grant applications; to provide the City Manager the authority to apply for and to execute grant agreements, and to execute related Certifications and Assurances with the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), Metro, or other federal, regional or local entities; -and to enter into agreements for transit funds for the pass-through of funds; and agreements for planning, programming and implementing transit services and capital projects over FY 2009 through FY 2011. Executive Summary City Council authorization is requested to file the FY 2009-2011 Short Range Transit Plan with Metro. Filing of this report is required by Metro and allows Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus (BBB) to continue its eligibility as a recipient of federal and state transit assistance funds. The SRTP is a planning document and does not obligate the City to any specific funding levels. City Council action is also requested to provide the necessary authorities to file grant applications, execute grant agreements and to enter into agreements associated with the funding, planning, programming and implementation of transit services and capital projects. There is no fiscal impact associated with this item. Future fiscal impacts will be considered during the annual budget process. 1 Discussion Short Range Transit Plan Filing of Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus FY 2009-2011 SRTP is in accordance with the requirements of Metro. BBB is required annually to file an SRTP to remain eligible for federal, state, and regional funding assistance. The SRTP is a planning document that evaluates what was accomplished over the past year and provides- athree-year action plan for service and capital improvements, including fleet. replacement, facility improvements, equipment modernization and other infrastructure needs. The document identifies the projected operating revenue and expenses needed to carry out that action plan. The proposed SRTP financial forecast is based on a combination of the share of Metro countywide formula-based allocation of transit funds and the projected operational needs. For FY 2008-2009, the formula allocation of operating funds is -$34.8 million, including the use of Proposition C Security funds for services provided by the City of Santa Monica. Local operating revenues (passenger fares, charter, advertising, interest, lease, special transit services and Proposition A Local Return revenues) are an additional $16.7 million. Both the FY 2008-2009 operating budget and capital program were adopted by the City Council in the current year budget and will be addressed annually in subsequent budget cycles. New funding opportunities not included in the adopted budget are presented to Council for action, typically, as part of the mid-year budget process or as an information item with the City Finance department participating in the review process. Authorization The report also requests that Council authorize the City Manager to file grant applications as funding opportunities become available. If funds are approved, the City Manager has the authority to execute grant agreements to accept federal, state, 2 regional and local transit assistance (or other related) funds, as approved or programmed. Authority is also given to the City Manager to execute and file certifications and assurances as they relate to grant programs, compliance, and project implementation. These authorities allow the City to expedite its annual grant applications and participate in unanticipated one-time grant opportunities. BBB funding agencies include, but are not limited to the FTA and other federal agencies, Metro, the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD), State Department of Homeland Security; and California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and other state and regional agencies The City Manager is also authorized to enter into agreements including but not limited to Memorandums of Understanding (MOU), Letter of Agreements (LOA), Cooperative Procurement Agreements, sub-grantee agreements for transit funds and for the pass- through of funds. Agreements may include, but are not limited to agreements by and between the City of Santa Monica and Metro, SCAQMD, FTA, the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), the University of California, Los Angeles' (UCLA) Bruin-Go Program, the Santa Monica College's Anyline, Anytime Program, non-profits, and other federal, state, local and regional .entities for the purposes of planning, programming funds and implementing transit services and capital projects for the residents of the City of Santa Monica and greater Los Angeles area. Financial Impacts & Budget Actions The SRTP is a planning document and does not obligate the City to any specific levels of funding. Provision for the proposed capital improvements ahd recommended service changes will be made each budget year with available allocations of transit revenues. The FY 2008-2009 improvements are fully funded in the City budget with local operating and transit subsidy funds.

Since its inception, the- BBB has followed a policy of service modifications to keep pace with changing travel patterns in the service area, which now comprises approximately 51 square miles, well in excess of the 8.6 square mile area of the City of Santa Monica. ROUTE INFORMATION Fixed .route service includes nineteen identified .lines transporting passengers throughout the Westside and metropolitan Los Angeles County. Services are categorized as follows: 1) traditional local transit service with pickup and drop off at designated stops on a specified route, typically on major arterial streets; 2) commuter transit service that supplements local service by directly connecting. neighborhoods with major employment centers or educational institutions only during the morning and afternoon to serve the peak commuting hours; 3) express service which carries passengers from Santa Monica and West Los Angeles to Downtown Los Angeles via the 10 Freeway (Line 10); 4) limited stop service comprising Rapid 3 along Lincoln Boulevard which serves the Los Angeles International Airport and the Metro Rail Green Line, Rapid 7 on Pico Boulevard to the Rimpau Terminal, and Super 12 which terminates at UCLA. A fifth service type is the regularly scheduled. circulators that provide community- . oriented transit services with the brand name of "Mini Blue." Mini Blue operates using smaller vehicles (less than 30-foot) to easily traverse neighborhood streets. BBB currently operates three Mini Blue services circulating primarily within the City of Santa Monica See Exhibit A for a complete detailed description of the- current Big -Blue Bus routes. A map of the Big Blue Bus system and existing routes are shown in Exhibit B and current schedules are provided in Exhibit C. SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENTS Onooing Capital Improvements Progress continues with implementation of the Advanced Fleet Management System (AFMS). The portion of the system now operating includes the radio system, Computer Aided Dispatch. (CAD)1Automatic Vehicle Locator (AVL) system, automatic passenger annunciation system and mobile data terminals. Automatic passenger counters, an interactive voice response phone system which will provide schedule information and the passenger trip planning software will be completed by winter 2008. Bus arrival display signs will be completed in phases. The first phase is now 1 complete and the signs are operational. Future phases include the installation of signs at high volume transit centers and with the implementation of the bus shelter program. In May 2006, the City Council authorized the Construction of phase two of the Transit Campus Expansion Project. Construction began in August 2007 and is scheduled to be complete by March 2010. The Scope of Work includes design and construction of 217 bus parking spaces '(or 204 spaces with. articulated buses) and a new maintenance building with 21 service bays, which are necessary for BBB to expand transit service. The Draft EnvironrtSental review for the Metro Exposition Transit Corridor Light Rail Line is currently underway and is anticipated to be complete by the end of this calendar year. In December 2006, BBB' acquired property located at the Sears Tire & Battery Center, 402 Colorado Avenue. This site is envisioned as the Downtown/Civic Center terminus of the light rail line. The proposed site would combine transit oriented development, public parking, affordable housing, and supportive' office, retail, and commercial businesses to create a "Transit Village." Additional parcels may be purchased in the future to create a continuous 4-acre site for optimal development. SERVICE PLANNING Line-bv-Line Analysis and Service Improvement and Efficiency Program The triennial Line-by-Line Analysis provides the data and analysis that is essential for effective service planning. The 2007-08 Line-by-Line Analysis was completed in spring 2008. Over atwo-month period, a team of over 20 surveyors rode every scheduled trip of every service operated by BBB on weekdays, Saturdays and Sundays to count and record the exact number of passengers who boarded and alighted at every bus stop from the beginning to the ehd of every one-way bus trip. Surveyors also distributed approximately 13,000 passenger questionnaire forms on the buses in proportion to ridership by day of the week and by service line. The questionnaire was legal size, in English on one side and Spanish on the other, allowing detailed information to be gathered. Over 5,000 completed and usable questionnaires were returned for data entry and analysis. This methodology produces an accurate picture of system utilization at all times of the day and on each transit service as well as rider travel characteristics and preferences for service improvements. The Line-by-Line service analysis and passenger questionnaire detailed findings are in Exhibit D. Recent Service Improvements Line 1: To relieve overcrowding on Line 1 caused by Metro's elimination of daytime local service on Santa Monica Boulevard, BBB added buses on the most crowded route segment between UCLA and Santa Monica College, via West Los Angeles where a high concentration of SMC students currently reside. To serve SMC, the buses utilize 20~h Street to Pico Boulevard. This service, known as the "Campus Connector," creates the first ever direct link between the two largest educational institutions in the BBB service area. Rapid 3: Since its inception in June 2005, BBB has made a number of changes to address growing demands on the Rapid Bus Line along Lincoln Boulevard (Line 3). Evening service was extended by one hour in June 2008. Rapid 3 takes advantage of the transit signal-priority system within the Los Angeles city limits to reduce delays. Testing of signal priority for Rapid 3 in Santa Monica will begin in fall 2008. Pending Caltrans approval, Rapid 3 will operate on a bus-only lane within the Santa Monica city limits to improve travel times and reduce delays. Implementation of the bus only lane is planned for next year. Rapid 7: BBB implemented Rapid 7 on Pico Boulevard between downtown Santa Monica and Rimpau Terminal in fall 2008. Frequency is every ten minutes during the busiest times of day. There is concern that this additional high-volume service may exceed the design capacity of Metro's Rimpau Transit Center, both in terms of safe bus movements through a constrained space and for the anticipated volume of passengers attempting to make transfersin a calm and orderly manner. BBB requested permission from Metro to extend the route of Rapid 7 by 2.2 miles to the Wilshire/Western Purple Line subway station to connect with the regional Metro Rail network and to avoid having to turn buses into the Rimpau Terminal. Metro declined this request; therefore service was. implemented to the Rimpau Terminal only. Line 7: In fall 2008, the weekday schedule was revised to reflect increased traffic congestion, requiring the deployment of two additional buses to maintain ten-minute service frequency. To eliminate weekend overcrowding; Saturday frequency was increased from every 15 minutes to every 12 minutes and Sunday service frequency from every 20 minutes to every 15 minutes. Line 14: In fall 2008, the weekday afternoon schedule was revised to account for .increased traffic congestion on Bundy Drive and Barrington Avenue requiring an additional bus. Saturday frequency was increased from every 30 minutes to every 20 minutes and service starts. 25 minutes earlier in the morning. This improvement was in response to the findings of the 2007-08 Line-by-Line Analysis that on Saturday, Line 14 is the most productive BBB service with over 70 passenger hoardings per vehicle service hour and the number of passengers increased 17 percent over the previous three-year period. Sunset Ride: In response to overcrowding that resulted in passengers being left behind at the bus stop, frequency was increased Monday through Thursday from every 20 minutes to every 13-15 minutes. In fall 2008 a bus stop was added on the corner of Pico and Stewart St. in response to requests from members of the senior community to improve access to local retail establishments. Santa Monica College (SMC) Partnership: In fall 2008, .BBB and Santa Monica College (SMC) took a major step forward in their partnership by implementing the "Any Line Anytime" transit pass program. This expands the program initiated in spring 2007 from just three routes to include all services operated by BBB. In spring 2008 the student government approved a special assessment that will yield an estimated $450,000 annually that will contribute towards the $1.25 million cos# for the first year of the program. The remainder will come from Santa Monica College. Service improvements and new routes are designed to attract the maximum possible number 3 of the more than 36,000 SMC students and faculty, approximately 4,800 of whom reside in the City of Santa Monica. Related improvements include: the increase in Sunset Ride peak period service frequency, implementation of Rapid 7 on Pico Boulevard, and the new Campus Connector between. SMC and UCLA. Route descriptions are provided in Exhibit C. Uocoming Service Improvement A new service to the Annenberg Community Beach House will be implemented in spring 2009. The service will be provided on weekends from 10am until 6pm when the pool area is open. The route will be designed to provide access to the Beach House from. broad sections of the community not already directly connected by the beach bike path or~he Montana Avenue pedestrian walkway and PCH pvercrossing from Palisades Park. The route will be as follows; from The Beach House, buses will exit right onto PCH southbound, proceeding up Moomat Ahko Way to turn right on Ocean Avenue southbound stopping near Loews Hotel, turning left to Pico eastbound observing line 7 stops; turning left on 14th Street observing Line 11-Crosstdwn Ride stops, turning left on Montana and observing line 3 stops, turning right on 7th Street observing Line 9 stops and returning to the Beach House by turning left from Entrada Drive to southbound PCH. Two small transit vehicles will provide the service. Passenger loads will be closely monitored and service levels will be adjusted according to the number of riders using the service. Service to the Beach House will also be provided seven days per week by Santa Monica Dial-a-Ride for registered City residents at least 60 years of age or those with a disability from directly in front of their residence. BBB's fares continue to be among the lowest in the Los Angeles area region. The current fare structure is provided in Table L-1. The "Day Pass" was introduced on July 1, 2007 allowing BBB passengers to move seamlessly throughout the system. PLANNED IMPROVEMENTS Fiscal Years 2009 through 2011 Cagitallmorovements . Bus Replacements will continue in accordance with the fleet management plan and as funds become fully available:. a contract award to purchase five alternative fuel community transit vehicles is expected to be executed in fall 2008; replacement of the ten Thomas buses is anticipated in 2009; and BBB also plans to add Articulated Buses to its fleet in 2010 to replace Nova Buses and to better serve travel demand on high density corridors. BBB continues to convert to alternative fueled vehicles operating on Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG),- Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), or by hybrid-electric propulsion. More than 50% of the fleet operates on natural gas. BBB .seeks opportunities with other municipal operators for joint procurements when reasonable. Major engine replacements are anticipated in FY 2009 for the (37) 2001 NABI LNG powered buses. These buses, which are. powered by Detroit Diesel Corporation . (DDC) 50 Series Natural Gas engines, have reached mid-life and have an average of 200,000 miles per bus. Since natural gas engines operate with higher than normal exhaust gas temperatures, the engines are at their expected over-haul or engine a replacement cycle. Overhauling the engines would be the preferred action, however, DDC 50 series engines are no longer in production and parts are difficult to acquire. Most transit agencies facing similar situations on the DDC 50 engines are opting to re-power coaches with Cummins C-gas plus engines. The Cummins C-gas plus engine is the only heavy duty natural gas engine certified by CARB and currently in production. Re-powering the (37) 2001 NABI buses will allow Big Blue Bus to use these buses throughout their life cycle of 12 years, increase reliability of service and bring BBB closer to a standardized fleet. The concept of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) was adopted by the City Council in 2005. Currently, the Rapid service uses signal priority to keep green lights green longer, stops only at majq~ intersections approximately one mile apart and follows a more direct route to Los Angeles International Airport. The first Santa Monica bus-only lane is proposed on Lincoln Blvd to reduce operating cost and passenger travel time. The Lincoln bus-only lane will be a 2.1 mile segment in each direc#ion between Pico Boulevard in Santa Monica and Washington Boulevard in the city of Los Angeles. Design for the. Santa Monica segment of the Lincoln Boulevard bus-only lane was complete in summer 2006. Construction is pending coordination and approval from Caltrans. Other bus improvements are under consideration for Pico Boulevard to expedite bus operations adjacent to the heavily transit dependent Santa Monica College and Pico neighborhood. The City continues to extend its Signal Priority System on major corridors including Pico, Wilshire and Santa Monica Boulevard which supports the Big Blue Bus and City Fire Department. This program is being implemented by the City's Transportation Management and Engineering Departments. Implementation of the Bus Stop and Shelter Program is amulti-phased project. Implementation is anticipated to begin in FY 2008-2009. Phase I is the installation of local shelters throughout the City of Santa Monica at high-volume passenger locations.. Phase II of the. program is being implemented in conjunction with Metro to install Rapid Shelters along Wilshire, Lincoln, Pico and Santa Monica Boulevards, and Ocean and Colorado Avenues. The program will include street furniture and real time transit information (AFMS Program) at high .volume and Rapid locations and replacement of old street furniture and installation of benches at key locations where none currently exist. System wide implementation is anticipated over the next three years. The Bus Stop Signage Program includes redesign and installation of new bus stop targets and eye-level information .system-wide. Design is currently underway to improve customer information en-route. The program is intended to develop easily recognizable -bus stops with line designation and easy to understand route information. There are over 1,200 bus stops in the Big Blue Bus system, including over 360 within the city limits. Currently not all stops have route information or line designation information needed to identify stops. Big Blue Bus continues to be involved with the Universal Fare System (UFS) Project, both the financial and procurement planning aspects. Similar to the EZ transit pass, UFS will allow passengers to ride multiple transit systems with a single fare medium. 5 However, UFS will differ from the EZ transit pass because it utilizes smart-card technology. issuing unique electronic passes will provide enhanced convenience and security to passengers. and also allow for. more .accurate reporting of travel patterns in the region. Implementation of UFS is under consideration for implementation in FY 2009-10. Service Improvements Data from the Line-by-Line Analysis, On-Board Customer Survey and public comment received in the community outreach meetings are used to develop the Big Blue Bus Service Improvement and Efficiency Report (BIER). The BIER recommends a number of service improvements and resource reallocations based on actual ridership- da#a. The Line-by-Line Analysis examines the following: locations where BBB may benefit from bus-only lanes to improve service reliability, direct service between areas where rider residences are concentrated and major destinations exist, options for services that are underutilized and could be reallocated without negatively .impacting ridership, and options for short-distance- community- oriented routes within the City of Santa Monica as part. of the new "Mini-Blue" services. In addition- to these highly visible customer driven improvements, BBB has experienced the operational necessity of adding more buses and drivers to maintain the same frequency and span of service on existing services as the result of operating in a context of increasing traffic congestion. Schedules are rewritten for the chronic delay that inevitably reappears on a cycle of approximately every three years. In recent years,. the resources required for this "invisible" type of improvement has been approximately equal to that required for visible improvements. Capital, expenditure constraints in FY09 and FY10 will not allow for both service expansion and schedule reliability. In the event that either significant transit priority measures are implemented or new resources are secured for fleet expansion, the BIER recommends the following service improvements: • Increase the hours of Rapid 3 to provide mid-day service • Extend the route of Rapid 7 by 2.2 miles route to the Wilshire/Western Purple Line subway station to enhance regional connectivity and eliminate bus congestion at the Rimpau terminal.. • Convert- Line 6, the Palms -Mar Vista - SMC peak period, peak direction commuter service to arr all-day and early evening service with 15-minute peak and 30-minute off peak frequency operating in both directions. This service would terminate at the Expo light rail line phase 1. terminal on Venice Boulevard at Robertson Boulevard and would be implemented. in concert with the beginning of rail service that is anticipated for summer 2010. • Convert the Super 12 limited stop UCLA-Palms direct route, peak period peak direction service to an all day and early evening Rapid service operating in both directions on 15-minute peak and 30-minute off peak frequencies. This service would terminate at the Expo light rail line phase 1 terminal on Venice Boulevard at Robertson Boulevard and would be implemented in concert with the beginning of rail service that is anticipated for summer 2010. Schedule reliability and time savings for passengers using this rail connector would be greatly enhanced. by .implementation of bus lanes on the segment of Westwood Boulevard where four agencies operate transit service- that is currently mired in congestion. -Bus lanes would be implemented only northbound in the morning and only southbound in the afternoon in accordance with the predominate travel pattern, leaving parking on at least one side of the street at all times. • Implement a new peak period commuter service between the Van Nuys Metrolink/Amtrak station-and Santa Monica. This would be the first ever direct transit linking Santa Monica and West LA with the San Fernando Valley. The Line-by-Line Analysis on-board questionnaire found that even with no direct connection the area of the Valley that would be directly served has a moderate but significgr}t number of BBB riders. The route would take advantage of the HOV lane on I-405 through the Sepulveda Pass HOV. One trip would leave Santa- Monica approximately at 7 a.m. and connect with a Metrolink train to Ventura County and an Amtrak train to Santa Barbara and San Luis Obisbo. The same bus would return from the Van Nuys station at approximately $ a.m. providing a connection for incoming travelers from Santa Barbara and Ventura County and arrive in Santa Monica just before 9 a.m. The afternoon trip would leave Santa Monica just around 5:15 p.m. and arrive at the Van Nuys station around 6:00 p.m., in time for connections with a Metrolink train to Ventura County and an Amtrak train to Santa Barbara. This service could be implemented for summer only 2009 when buses and drivers would be available as a demonstration project and to reduce traffic impacts from summer beach visitors. Proposition 1 B California voters approved Proposition 16 in the November 2006 general election. Proposition 1B enacts the Highway Safety, Traffic Reduction, Air Quality, and Port Security Bond Act of 2006 to authorize up to $19.925 billion in state general obligation bonds over the next six years. These funds include $3.6 billion statewide to the Public Transportation Modernization, Improvement and Service Enhancement Account. These funds are available to transit operators over the next six years for eligible transit capital projects. Final appropriations are dependent on the State Legislature's approval and the State's issuance of bonds, but it is anticipated Sarita Monica's Big Blue Bus will receive approximately $30 million over the next six years. Funds from Proposition 1 B will be used toward transit bus replacements and other bus related capital projects. Proposition 1B also includes funds dedicated to transit capital security projects. BBB anticipates approximately $300,000 each year to be available for security capital improvements. Safety and Security is further discussed below. Safety & Security As an FTA Section 5307 grantee, BBB is required to spend of least 1 % of its Section 5307 (or other local) funds on security. Security funds support a partnership with the Santa Monica Police Department, and fund Campus Security Guards and security systems. The Department of Homeland Security.(DHS) has identified BBB as a Tier 1 Agency, having mid-level risk. Through DHS, BBB -can seek funds for training, planning, and capital projects.

This service area includes many neighborhoods of medium to high residential densities and includes a number of major- regional tri main UCLA campus in Westwood and the Los Angeles International Ai r ortators, including the to a number of local transit routes serving the City of Santa Monica and West ide Los Angeles, Big- Blue Bus also ope,~afes a freeway express route between the City of Santa Monica and downtown Los Angeles. Big Blue Bus provides transfer connections with a number of other public transit agencies serving the western portion of Los Angeles County, including LADOT DASH services, Culver CityBus and Metro, the regional transit operator in Los Angeles County. It also connects with the Metro Green Line light rail corridor southeast of LAX. Big Blue Bus operates a fleet of 184 buses serving 15 regular fixed routes. 142 vehicles are in service during peak periods. Total system ridership totaled approximately 22 million unlinked trips in FY 2006, providing 5.1 million revenue miles and 466,000 revenue hours of service. The FY 2006 operating budget was approximately $47 million. Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus retained Perteet, Inc. of Seattle, Washington and Weslin Research, Inc. of Bellingham, Washington to provide technical assistance to conduct an update of the system's Line-by-Line Analysis. Big Blue Bus, the public transportation provider in the Santa Monica area, is required to submit to the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority ashort-range transit plan containing line-specific transit data every three years. The 2007 Line-by-Line Analysis is required to provide the baseline data for the FY 2008 through FY 2010 Short Range Transit Plan submissions: The Line-by-Line Analysis includes an assessment of the operatin Bus system as well as an assessment of the demographics, attg des~andnawaretnesg'o BBig Blue Bus operations of its riders. Ridership information includes the total ridership by route, an identification of boarding and alighting activity along each route alignment and an analysis of the volume and pattern of transfer activity between individual Big Blue Bus lines and between Big Blue Bus services and those of other public transportation operators. 1.2 PROJECT DESIGN AND METHODOLOGY The Line-by-Line Analysis consists of a number of tasks designed to information concerning rider behavior and attitudes. The major sub-tasks of they projectsare briefly described below. 1.2.1 System-wide Ridership Count The consultant team conducted astop-by-stop boarding and ali htin Blue Bus fixed route services. Both the boarding and alighting survey and the on board surv'y tasks (see Section 1.2.2) were conducted simultaneously, often utilizing the same survey personnel: The consultant team built its data collection forms from current bus stop listings. i, `< F `.

This short, self-administered survey was prepared in consultation ~~ with Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus staff in order to obtain information from existing system riders concerning their trip origins and destin estionst about t andl attitudes toward, pote tialfstervice t,- attitudes toward existing services, sugg 4~ improvements and the relationship between needed system improvements and increased ridership. ;' The on-board rider survey was conducted in conjunction with the system-wide ridership count.

Because of the large number of daily riders on Big Blue Bus buses (72,000 weekdays, 34,000 Saturdays and 30,000 Sundays), it was impractical to survey each boarding passenger on each trip. For that reason, the consultant team distributed surveys to approximately 13,000 Big Blue Bus riders in proportion to ridership by day of week. This resulted in a survey distribution to approximately 7,200 weekday riders, 3,400 Saturday riders and 3,000 Sunday riders in order to reflect the-ratio of weekday riders to weekend riders. To accomplish this distribution, surveyors rode approximately 10% of all fixed route trips, distributing surveys to each boarding passenger. From this distribution, approximately 38% were returned for data entry and analysis. A copy of the distributed English-language survey instrument is shown in Figure 3.1. 1.2.3 Transfer Survey In order to determine and document the general travel. patterns of transferring Big Blue Bus riders and to identify significant transfer connections, the consultant team performed an analysis of transfer movements of Big Blue Bus riders using paper transfers: Big Blue Bus riders wishing to transfer between buses are issued paper transfers that identify the route of origin and time of day issued. When these transfers are used, they are presented to the driver of the second bus in lieu of a cash fare. We took advantage of this interchange of paper transfers to document the transfer activity and trarsfer patterns of Big Blue Bus riders. Big Blue Bus drivers collected paper transfers as usual but, rather than discard them, retained them for one entire day of service. Each driver deposited all collected transfers into an envelope marked with the number of the receiving route, distributed to each driver for that purpose, and returned that envelope containing those transfers to Big Blue Bus at the end of his or her work day. Drivers who operated more than one route kept a separate envelope for each. route they operated, and segregated collected transfers according to the route on which they were collected. The returned transfers were retrieved and sorted by route of origin and destination. -These segregated transfer categories were counted and a matrix created showing the number of transfers made between each route pair in the Big Blue Bus system. A record was also created concerning the volume of transfers between Big Blue Bus routes and those of other transit companies in the region. The consultant team and Big Blue Bus preceded the transfer collection, conducted on October 25, 2007, with an announcement of the upcoming survey. Over 12,000 transfers were. processed in this survey.

Survey forms were prepared for use by on- board surveyors to record hoardings, alightings, on-board passenger loads and other observations of service and rider behavior at each bus stop. A survey form similar to that depicted in Figure 2.1 was used to gather data for this task. Z.2 RIDER COUNT SURVEY ..2.2.1 Methodology The stop-by-stop boarding and alighting passenger count of all Saturday and Sunday Big Blue E Bus fixed route services was conducted between February and May, 2007, and the weekend trips in September and early October, 2007. Both the boarding and alighting counts and the on- board survey (see Chapter 3) tasks were accomplished simultaneously utilizing the same k survey personnel, except on those routes having a history of crowded conditions where the number and concentration of passenger movements would have made the counting of riders °` and the distribution of surveys impractical for just one person. The data collection forms were ~' ~ developed from current Big Blue Bus zone listings. . 2,2,1,1 Surveyor Hiring and Training The surveying of boarding and alighting passengers .was performed by individuals hired and screened through a temporary employment agency.. After pre-employment screening, all temporary personnel were required to attend a training session at which a thorough understanding of the purposes and requirements of the survey process was gained before actual passenger counting commenced. No person was permitted to survey any Big Blue Bus trips without first having attended a training session. The surveyors were shown. the survey forms they were responsible for filling out -and a thorough explanation of survey requirements,. procedures and expectations was presented, including dress code, required equipment, on- board deportment and the importance of promptness and responsibility. 2,2,1,2 Survey Procedure ~;j A thorough surveying procedure and data verification process was developed that resulted in the gathering of precise and accurate survey information. Operating information, such as coach operator assignments (trip sheets), coach block assignments and bus stop inventory listings in 'j computer format were gathered from Big Blue Bus immediate) u on receivin the ~:;j y p 9 project notice-to-proceed. Surveyor assignments were developed from the driver and coach block assignments-and often .! mirrored existing driver assignment time blocks, although this was not always the case. _, Boarding and alighting data forms were produced using the Big Blue Bus zone inventory. Each of the scheduled bus stops. was geo-coded to permit mapping of survey outputs. ~ The rider counts were conducted on each of the Big Blue Bus fixed routes and covered all --' weekday, Saturday and Sunday trips for a complete day's worth of service.

The weekday survey was completed over an approximate 3 week period between late September and- mid-October, 2007. While attempts were made to count each line in a block, it often.took a period of more than a week to cover all of the trips bn many lines. Saturday and Sunday trips were counted during March through May, 2007. School trippers operated on school days only were also counted. Where those trippers operated along regular route segments, those counts were included in the regular route ridership. 2,2,1,5 Data Forms All gathered ridership data was examined for completeness and accuracy. Once the data was edited, it was. entered into a raw data form. Each form represented counts taken on an individual line in a single direction and provided three columns for data collected on each directional trip, for hoardings, alightings and on-board passengers departing each bus stop. , Page II-3 Perfeef, Inc Figure 2.2: Sampte surveyor truu u.,uv~,.~ FII IJ Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus 2007 Line-by-Line Analysis Figure 2.3: Line 7S Eastbound Boarding and Alighting Rider Data Form (partial) 2.2.1.5.1 Boardings and Aliahtings A sample raw ridership data form is shown in Figure 2.3, depicting five of the ten eastbound trips on the weekday line Super 7. In addition to boarding and alighting. data, each form also records for each trip the number of the bus assigned to each. trip on the day of the survey, the scheduled beginning and end time for each trip and the mileage between successive bus stops. The form also records. total hoardings, total alightings and the maximum passenger load recorded for each trip surveyed. The rider raw data form also records which stops are defined as schedule time points. These are used to develop the schedule adherence data forms (see below) and to define the line segments summarized in the individual line profiles included in Appendix B to this report. 2.2.1.5.2 Schedule Adherence As seen in Figure 2.1 on page II-1, surveyors conducting the rider counts also recorded data concerning schedule adherence performance. At each bus stop identified as'a schedule time point, the scheduled arrival time was recorded, along with the actual arrival and departure times observed on the-day of the survey. The schedule information was provided by Big Blue Bus staff for all fixed route trips. Where schedule control sheets contained additional time points not shown on passenger timetables, the timetable time points were generally used, reflecting information available to the riding public. Raw schedule data forms were based on the identified line time points for each direction of travel, and actual arrival and departure times from each time point, as corded by the ridership surveyor, was entered. From this raw data, scheduled versus actual running times for each route segment were calculated for each trip as well as the deviation from actual arrival times at each time point. A sample raw schedule data form, showing the six eastbound time points for line Super 7 is shown in Figure 2.4: Weektla Y 2 3 1 5 6 Eus15am0 6iwtlwaY-45Th Plcod LficoN PksdB;ndy R[uSWeslwouE %ro dRobenam Pko BPbnpeu Ti [I:eWtleM Artke De art [IremiteG Aries Me at ;etluled A;rire OYe Ants an 5[5etlub4 Arne Ma ,1 tledtled NrM M ]SAS I:33 PM e 3:33PMi 1:33 PM 2:41PM!111 PM i1:41 PM 3:53 PMi ]52PMe 2:52 PM T02 PM!3:01 PM e 3:61 PM 3:13 PMi 3:15PMe3:15PM 333 PMe 3:1fi PMi 3afi PM ......_._.___ ]6A3 .__.. _._. 233PM ..._._.__..r .............. ; 351PM: 1.51 PM ..._.........r......._.... 3;01PMyi98PM ............... e 391 PM ..._...... _. 3:13 PMi __; _..._. 310 PM.r ..... 3'19 PM .._.._.................... ~331PM :'3:32PMe ..._......... 3:31PM ......._...._. 3:33 PMe ........_............._.... 3:15 PMi3:15PM .........._... 3:13PMi ..._......... 3:50PM i J:99PN . ]6A5 3t3PM 315PM 3t5PM 323PM 322 PM 3:11 PM 331 PM~ 3.36 PMi 331 PM S43 PM 365PM 315PM 351 PMe 353 PM 3.53PM I:OB PM IOI PM' IfE PM. ]SA] 133PM 3t0 PM 3a0 PM 313 PM 3d0 PM .318 PM 35a PM I:U9 PM 160 PM 103 PM :109 PM ; 409 PM ~ 6:11 PM ~ d]1 PM 121 PM d16 PM ~~ d3fi PM 6PM ]SA9 353 PM : 3<B PM 353 PM 093 PM 601 PM 1:03 PM 611 PM ,. 1]I PMT 111 PM 1:23 PM 132 PM; 131 PM d31 PMe _ d36 PM 1,36 PM OI6 PM 151 PM _ 1S3 PM )5411 113PM _ d]I PM 11d PM 133 PM d15 PM :4;15 PM 13d PM 631 PM d31 PM 1_tl PM dd3 PM.. _ <12 PM d:5I PM d:59 PM. 159 PM 509 PM 51u PM .

Sample information for eastbound line Super 7 trips is summarized in Figure 2.7. 2.2.2.3.2 On-Time Performance Also based on the scheduled and actual arrival times recorded during the rider counts, a report of actual schedule-adherence performance was made. For each time point recorded during the counts, the adherence to accepted schedule-adherence guidelines was calculated. For the purposes of this project, the following standards for performance were used: •: .Early - an actual bus departure from a scheduled time point two or more minutes before the scheduled departure time as reflected in passenger timetables and internal schedule documents :• Late - an actual bus departure from a scheduled time point six or more minutes after the • scheduled arrival time From these parameters, trips are considered to be on-time whenever they depart a scheduled time point not 'more than 2 minutes before, and no more than 5 minutes later than, the scheduled departure time. Calculated schedule adherence performance for eastbound line Super 7, based on the data shown in Figure 2.4, is summarized in Figure 2.8. Each line's schedule adherence was based upon documented arrivals and departures from all time points at which an actual arrival and departure time was recorded. ;z ~ ibound 1 - ~ s ~ -.

A short summary of those graphical techniques is presented here to explain the meaning of the presented material 2.2,3,1 On-Board Passengers While the on-board passengers at each stop are presented in tabular form by time period and total in the summary table depicted in Figure 2.6, it is often more instructive to view that information in a graphical format. Such a depiction is shown in Figure 2.9. In this graphic, the accumulated passenger loads on each directional trip are displayed by stop for an entire route directional alignment. On-board passenger loads are sub-totaled and color-coded for each of the appropriate time periods as well, depicting the relative contributions of each time period to the daily total 2,2.3,2; RiderActivity 1 A modification of the boarding and alighting graphic adds the hoardings and alightings together and plots a moving average of those sums for each bus stop. By averaging the activity one-half mile before and after each stop, this graphic shows the separate areas of maximum activity but tends to smooth out stop to stop variations. On some routes, this technique does a very good job of identifying separate rider markets. This technique is demonstrated for Line Super 7 in Figure 2.11. _ _ Figure 2.9: On-Board Riders by Stop Line Super 7Eastbound tu:~ . __ : ~-- . ._ I n ~ s- : ~ _ 9 $ i .~ ,~ _ ~ a @ g ' - .ae o o._ a .v_..9 a ._.9.. a ..: .. .. :....... . _ .__ .,,, $ Z "9 s 'd S 8 6 'd o $ 'd $ & 6 m S ~ ~ ~ ~ a ~ ~ ~ & @ ~ ~ ~ e F ~ ~ ~o~~ort -o~eoam~.~~a tl- -' Figure 2.10: Boardings and Alighfings by Stop Line Super 7 Eastbound L~ ~,_I Perteet, Inc Page ll-8 nu~r ~° i ~AtlW -Yl~leU 2,2,3,3r Boardings and A/ightings The actual boarding and alighting activity at each stop was portrayed graphically as depicted in Figure 2.10. The boardings, colored dark green, plotted above the zero axis, and the alightings, colored light green, plotted below the zero axis, demonstrate the specific locations having the highest passenger activity. Rider activity was geo-coded in order to produce route maps depicting rider activity spatially along each route alignment. This information, prepared for each weekday route, is illustrated by Figure 2.12 and is included with each weekday line profile. 2,2.3.4 Operating Speeds Using the line mileages and running times, average operating speeds by time period have also been calculated for each line and direction of travel. Line running times were plotted against. scheduled times for each line and direction for weekday, Saturday and Sunday operation.

A surveyor ~.a rode each sampled trip,. distributing and collecting questionnaires, providing pencils and answering questions from survey participants. On many routes, the same surveyor both counted riders and distributed questionnaires. On routes with a history of more concentrated r rider activity, separate counters and surveyors rode each trip, frequently counting and surveying F` ~ on separate days. 1=~ 3.1.1 Sampling Plan Because of the large number of daily riders on Big Blue Buses (estimated before the survey at 70,000 weekdays, 32,000 Saturdays and 20,000 Sundays), it proved both too costly and operationally impractical to survey each boarding passenger on each trip. -For that reason, surveys were distributed to approximately 13,000 Big Blue Bus riders in proportion to ridership by day of week.. This translated to a survey distribution to approximately 7,500 weekday riders, 3,500 Saturday riders and 2,000 Sunday riders, reflecting the ratio of weekday riders to weekend riders. To accomplish this distribution, a sample of 10% of all system trips. was selected. Surveyors rode each selected fixed route trip, distributing surveys to each boarding passenger. This methodology met the requirements for randomness when surveying a subset of the entire rider population. From this distribution, approximately 38% were returned for data entry and analysis, 5,056 completed and usable questionnaires in all. 3.1.2 Questionnaire Development The 2007 survey instrument was based upon the survey instrument used in the 2004 Line by Line Analysis. In addition to the English language version shown in Figure 3.1, a Spanish language version was printed on the reverse side of the survey card for those preferring to respond in that language. t! 3.1.3 On-Board Distribution The general methodology of surveyor hiring, training and supervision has been described in some detail in Chapter 2. The. methodology used in the on-board survey of riders differed in only a few respects. If a rider refused to participate, the surveyor was instructed to indicate that on the questionnaire and place it in a separate pile of "refused" questionnaires. The next boarding passenger was ` ~ then offered the questionnaire next in sequence from the stack of uncirculated questionnaires. ~_ In this way, a tally was made of the number of questionnaires offered to passengers (a check on the total number of boardings) and of the number of riders who agreed to participate. Each surveyor attempted to collect completed questionnaires from passengers as -they disembarked the bus,: although many passengers kept them for later completion. Such ' ' passengers were instructed to return their completed questionnaire to any_Big Blue Bus driver ~' for return to the survey team: -1 - iJ ~ Pedeet, Inc.

About half (53%) of riders reported paying a cash fare; compared to 55% of those surveyed in the previous survey (2004). The second most-used fare media reported by riders was the EZ Pass (12% of riders.) The Metrocard, EZ Pass or Little Blue Card were used by approximately 21%. Fewer riders reported using transfers (7%) and tokens (6%). See Figure 3.4. The Santa Monica College card was used by just 4% of riders but those riders represented more than one-third of all riders on line 11. 3.2.4: Fare Paid Respondents were also asked to report the fare they paid on the surveyed trip (Figure 3.5).

Other major trip purposes were shopping and personal business (9.2% each). (Figure 3.7) 3.2.10 Reasons for Riding Big .Blue Bus Respondents reported that the most important reason they rode Big Blue Bus_was that they did not own a car. More than one-third (35%) of responding riders reported not having an auto to make their trip. This was followed in frequency by helping the environment (13%), faster than walking (11 %), expensive parking (10%), and not liking to drive in traffic (10%) The responses to this question are summarized in Figure 3.8. 3.2.11 Rating Big Blue Bus Service Riders are very satisfied with the quality of service offered by Big Blue Bus. When asked to rate the quality of Big Blue Bus Service, a wide majority (97%) rated the- quality of service as satisfactory, a virtually unchanged percentage from the previous on-board survey. Only 3% rated. the service quality as poor or very poor. The distribution of quality ratings is shown in Figure 3.9.

Of the improvements mentioned, improvements in schedule adherence were mentioned as most important (weighted average rating of 8.2), closely followed by faster bus service (8.0), improved schedule and route information (7.7), and less crowded bus service (7:6), Issues ranked of lesser importance were improved cleanliness of buses (7.3), more shelters (7.2), driver courtesy (7.2), safety on the bus (7.1), and safety at the bus stop (7.1). In general, riders were somewhat more critical in this-survey than in the last one completed in 2004, giving generally higher ratings to all potential improvements. The category given the greatest emphasis relative to the last survey is the need for improved route and schedule information, which increased in importance from 6.83 in 2004 to 7.7 in this year's survey.

On October 25, 2007 all paper transfers presented for fare payment on Big Blue Bus services were collected by the drivers and turned over to the project consultant for tabulation and analysis in order to document the frequency of transferring between Big Blue Bus lines and between the Big Blue Bus and other bus companies in the region. -''! 4.1 SURVEY METHODOLOGY ~- ~ Prior to the collection of transfers,. envelopes were prepared for segregating and returning ii'j transfers. Each bus driver on the survey day was given one or more envelopes in which to " store' and return collected transfers. Each envelope was to contain all of the transfers collected in service along a single route. Where drivers were assigned to operate buses along more than ~;~ one route, a separate envelope was provided for each route served. Each envelope was marked with the driver's assignment number and the number of each route f°1 served. For each such route, all transfers presented by riders for fare paymeniwere_retained by `;s the driver and placed in the appropriate envelope and returned to the operating base at the conclusion of the day's assignment. s ~ Collected envelopes were tabulated to assure that one was collected for each driver and route !_, assignment operated on the survey day. For each envelope; a tally was made of the number of transfers collected along with an accounting of the route(s) from which each transfer was issued. Transfers originating on Metro routes were not identified by origin route since no such sj designation of origin route is made by Metro on their transfer slips. -After all transfers were segregated and counted, a matrix was constructed showing the number - of transfers collected representing transfers between each possible combination of origin and destination route. 4.2 SURVEY-FINDINGS A total of 6,661 transfers were documented with paper transfers between Big Blue Bus routes on the day of the survey. The largest number of transfers (1,541) originated on Line 7 and the greatest number (1,472) also were destined for Line 7. The greatest single route to route transfer interchange occurred from line 7 to line 12 (304 transfers) and from line 12 to line 7 (also 304 transfers.) In all, transfers to or from line 7 (2,927) represented more than 40% of all Big Blue Bus to Big Blue Bus transfers. The full Big Blue Bus to Big Blue Bus transfer matrix is shown in Figure 4.1. The highest transfer volume line pairs were calculated as follows (more than 200 transfers each): 1 Lines 7 and 12 (608) 4 Lines 7 and 8 (276) 2 Lines 3 and 7-(525) 5 Lines 1 and 3 (230) 3 Lines 7 and 14 (500) 6 Lines 1 and 7 (203) '- Perteet Inc. Page IV-1 i 4.3 LIMITATION OF FINDINGS The transfer survey covers only a portion of all system transferring activity. Riders not using paper transfers (pass holders, etc.) were not counted in this survey. While the total transferring activity measured by paper transfer use under-represents the total system volume of transfer activity, it is likely that the pattern of transfer activity is a good approximation of all system-wide transfer movements. -I t:l Page IV-2 Perteet, Inc _. ~ ~ , , , Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus ~ + , ~ ' 2007 line-by-Line Anatysis CHAPTER 5: SUMMARY OF FIN®INGS Chapter 5 summarizes the- findings of the data collection and analysis tasks of the Line by Line Analysis.

These are briefly summarized in the following sub-sections. 5,1,2,1 Trips Operated Big Blue Bus provided 1,479 daily scheduled directional trips on its fixed route services each weekday during the data collection period, along with 951 Saturday trips and 826 Sunday trips. Line 7 (219 trips) and Line 1 (201 trips) provided the most service of the regularly-scheduled services. A number of services operated on weekdays only, including lines Super 7, 11, Super 12 and the VA Shuttle. Line 13 operates a few Saturday trips but does not operate on Sundays. The Tide Shuttle operated later evening trips on Fridays and Saturdays only. f }'t "l '~ {.:,J Perfeet, Inc Page V-3 r'! ~. ~ I ~.:, ~- f e r~ f;:, ~:., ``I~;i t_ ~_1 ,: i.:; ea ,.i y 6;.1 r~ i 4> ~ Santa Monica's Big Biun Bus 2007 line-by-Line Anatysis .' _ Figure S.S:,Scheduled One-Way Trips Operated by Line 5,1,2,2 Service Frequencies Line trip frequencies are generally based on route ridership and productivity performance.

That is, any trip operating during two time periods was assigned to that in which the majority of its trips occurred. Based on the system-wide boarding and alighting counts; ridership performance by time. of day was calculated for 'a number of indicators. Perteet, Inc Page V-8 I' Figure 5.12: Riders per Revenue Hour Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus 2007 Line-by-line Analysis About fifty percent more riders (32,090) rode during the peak commuter hours than during midday hours (24,221), reflecting a modest shift to more peak ridership away from midday since 2004. Ridership drops off quite quickly after 6:00 PM with the six-hour period between 6:00 PM and midnight accounting for only a little more than forty percent (9,490) of the ridership of the six-hour midday period, although ridership during the evening and night .period have grown about 500 per day since 2004 while midday ridership has contracted slightly over that same period. Ridership after midnight, designated "Owl" in Figure 5,11, was negligible since only four routes operated any service during this period. 5,1,3,2 Productivity 5.1.3.2.1 Riders aer Revenue Hour For the purposes of this''analysis, revenue hours are equal to the route total "revenue time" as defined by Big Blue Bus in the block lists prepared for the September 2007 driver shake-up which was in effect at the time that the weekday system-wide rider counts were. taken, and for the February 2007 shake-up in effect when the weekend counts were taken. Riders per revenue hour, based on those revenue hour calculations, averaged 50.6 riders per revenue hour on weekdays, 46.5 on Saturdays and 39.4 on Sundays. Weekday productivities ranged from 75:3 riders per hour on Line 7 to 6.0 on 'the Downtown Shoppers' Shuttle. Saturdays ranged from 70.3 riders per hour on Line 14 to 1.9 on the Pico Farmers' Market Shuttle and Sundays from 60.7 (Line 7) to 12.8 (Line 4.) 5.1.3.2.2 Riders oer Mile Riders per revenue mile is often considered a more "pure" measure of ridership demand in that it does not vary with operating conditions or policies to the extent that riders per hour does.. Changes in deadhead travel time, average operating speeds or schedule recovery time can influence the riders per hour calculation while such operating conditions have no effect on the riders per mile measurement. Weekday riders per mile averaged 3.7 in 2007, ranging from 6.2 on Line Super 12 to 0.5 on the Downtown Shoppers' Shuttle:. Saturdays averaged 3.4 riders per miles with a range of 5.0 on LJ Perteet, Inc Page V-9 r..:~ Ftgnre 5.13: Riders per Mile by Line and Day of Week Line 14 to 0.1 on the Pico Farmers' Market Shu ranging from 4.9 (Line 1) to 1.0 (Lines 4 and 10.) averageo z.a per 5,1.3 3 Stop Leve/ Ridership Analysis was also made of the total ridership by bus stop for all bus stops used by Big Blue Bus. More than 1,050 bus zones .were evaluated as part of this effort, with totals for hoardings, alightings and on-board passenger loads on all Big Blue Bus lines documented for each bus stop. A table summarizing this information is included as Appendix A to this report. 5.2 LINE-LEVEL FINDINGS The individual line findings are included in the Service Efficiency and Improvement Plan in Chapter 6, Section 6.1. 5.3 HILGARD AVENUE UCLA TERMINAL One of the problems identified with current operations was the volume of buses serving the UCLA terminus at Strathmore and Hilgard. Some community opposition has developed concerning the number of buses using this terminus and the attendant increase~in traffic and air and noise pollution created in the predominantly residential neighborhood immediately to the east of the UCLA campus. The following table summarizes the volume of services and ridership carried between the corner of Westwood Boulevard & Leconte -and the UCLA terminus at Hilgard & Strathmore on weekdays on the five Big Blue Bus lines serving this neighborhood. The table does not include riders on line Super 12, hor the early morhing and late evening riders on lines 1, 2, 3, 8 and 12 that serves the Ackerman terminal on campus. As Figure 5.14 shows, nearly 4,500 riders either board or alight from a Big Blue Bus between the intersections of Westwood & Leconte and Hilgard & Strathmore each weekday during the school year. These riders are carried on 614 ohe-way trips, an average of 17.3 riders per trip. This represents a significant decline from the roughly 7,500 riders counted at the same locations in 2004. This finding substantiates the significant drop in ridership observed bn lines 1, 2 and 3 east of downtown Santa Monica (see. Chapter 6), which appears to come predominantly from the UCLA market. This is a troubling finding and needs to be the subject of further study. ,~_ ,:~.. 6AM I 2 18 72 > 404 ~ ~ 40 232 ~ 33 ~6 k 21~ ~~.xx~~K~ :~2~ 30 : 209 15 78 X17 10 Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus 2007 line-by-Line Anatysis 1,486 47 385 51 `J'{, t 25 ~ 237 t. ~' 1 ~ 84 14 i 110 20 p 2 i 18 291~~ ~~~ffl8`~~t~;F 491ry ^~243q 1,698 L~~k]j; 4~2FF y~'I Jib 312 96 793 k78~ ~ ~,a'4r1 .; 7:97'; n 2 I 10 __. _.

Such lanes currently exist along Lincoln Boulevard, providing benefits to Big Blue Bus operations. ;`J 5.4.1 Lincoln Boulevard Bus-Only Lanes The City of Santa Monica has implemented bus-only lanes during commuter hours on Lincoln r-1 ;.:., Boulevard from near downtown Santa Monica to the southern City boundary. The intent of this _.":~ projecYwas to improve bus travel times through this busy and congested corridor. Other candidate locations for this approach included Lincoln Boulevard between the southern `" corporate limits of the City and Washington Boulevard in Venice and along Westwood and Pico ~~ Boulevards. The Line-by-Line Analysis used the results of the field work and data collection tasks to quantify driving time savings resulting from the Lincoln Boulevard facility and to identify other candidate locations where physical changes to roadway configuration might offer significant travel time advantages to Big Blue Bus operations and riders. Over the past three years, travel times through the Lincoln Corridor have gradually-worsened. However; based on the outputs of the 2004 and 2007 Line-by-Line analyses, transit travel times Ei~ through the portion of the corridor featuring the bus-only lanes have actually improved, albeit slightly. Running times through the corridor from Ocean Park Boulevard to Manchester Averiue r""~ on Big Blue Bus line 3 are summarized in Figure 5.15. . f:~ The transit running time data doesn't exactly match the portion of the corridor in which the bus- only lane operates. The segment between Ocean Park. Boulevard and Washington Boulevard includes bus lanes from Ocean Park Boulevard to the south City boundary, comprising only ~.~ about one-quarter of that segment. ~.:; ~~ i,.j iJ While it is important to .keep in mind the small sample size included here, transit travel time increased on the segment between Washington Boulevard and Manchester, which has no bus lanes, in both directions and during both peak periods. The travel time in the northern segment, which included bus-only lanes for just one-quarter of its length, decreased across the board during the same period. '' Further analysis of comparative travel times in this corridor are needed to verify the implications of this analysis, but the evidence strongly suggests that the bus only lanes have had a significant impact on transif travel times through the Lincoln corridor. If one assumes the same percentage .increase in travel times for general traffic in both segments during the 2004-2007 period (averaging about 13%), simulating the effects of having no bus-only lanes in 2007, suggests that the lanes have resulted in a net transit travel time savings in this segment of approximately 2 minutes in the northbound direction and about 5 minutes in the southbound direction, based on the line 3 travel time data from the two line-by-line analyses.

Factors often mentioned to justify these investments are: • High general purpose traffic volumes where traffic is not sufficiently channelized, ~' controlled, segregated or regulated; ~~ •:• High transit servce volumes where large numbers of buses conflict with other traffic, bicycle and pedestrian movements; :• High transit rider boarding and alighting activity where .additional sidewalk space is desirable to provide a comfortable waiting environment; :• High transit rider volumes on-board where possible transit travel time improvements might result in a much more appealing trip for users; - - :• Roadway geometry considerations where constraints might require special policy analysis for giving special priority of one mode over another G~ !: I •:• Safety concerns wherehistorical evidence or anecdotal knowledge is available to arouse concern about how to improve unsafe conditions; :• Overall corridor growth indicators suggesting that trip making in the corridor will likely ~ ~ • increase in the near future •3 Transit oriented development possibilities where possible pedestrian and transit priority public investments will be rewarded with; or linked to, highly compatible private !.'ii development. The intent of this analysis is to perform a short review of the BBB system in light of the f ~ exhaustive data produced by the line-by-line analysis to confirm the merits of existing proposals L ~ or suggest-any additional candidate locations the City of Santa Monica may want to identify for further analysis. . 5,4,2.1 Pico Bou/evard L{ Based on running time considerations brought to light in the 2007 Line-by-Line Analysis, significant transit travel delay was observed to occur on Pico Boulevard on weekdays between ~~ Lincoln Boulevard and Bundy Drive, predominahtly within the City of Santa Monica and between Westwood Boulevard and Robertson Boulevard in the City of Los Angeles, particularly in. the 7 .eastbound. direction. Average scheduled and actual travel times for these segments-are shown ~`~ ' in Figure 5.17.. As the above table shows, transit travel times eastbound between 4 and 6 PM from Westwood Boulevard to Robertson Boulevard increased by a full five minutes between 2004 and 2007. r, iJ Petteet, Inc Page V-12 Figure 5.17: Measured Transit Travel Time Changes,-1'ico.Boulevard, 2004 to 2007 i~ "" ~ A.. ai= Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus Il ` ` ~ ~ ` 20011Jna-6y-Line Anatysis Average operating speed along this segment averages less than 8 miles per hour. Westbound transit travel times along this same segment and time period increased .nearly a minute and r<; one-half during the same three-year period. Travel times also increased between Lincoln Boulevard and Bundy .Drive during that same period, but to a lesser degree. These two segments presently represent the major locations of late operation for line 7, which has one of the highest percentages of late operation among all Big Blue Bus lines. Given the high percentage of late trips and the worsening travel times along Pico Boulevard, this roadway would be an excellent candidate for bus-only lanes and, perhaps, for traffic signal priority treatment. Although there is insufficient data to determine the role traffic signal delay has played in late operation along Pico Boulevard, the combination of signal priority and transit- only lanes could be expected to generate significant transit travel time savings along this roadway. ` 5,4,2.2 Westwood Bou/evard Westwood Boulevard represents a major schedule delay for both lines 8 and 12, based on comparisons of scheduled to actual running times along Westwood Boulevard between Pico Boulevard and the UCLA terminal. An examination of lines 1; 2 and 3 strongly suggest a similar experience for these-lines but their schedule time points do.not permit segregating travel times along Westwood from those also occurring along other corridors. Therefore, this analysis will confine itself to lin findings will also likely apply, in varying degrees, of the Westwood Boulevard corridor. as 8 and 12, with the understanding that the to the other lines operating along some portion As Figure 598 shows, the news is both good and bad with respect to transit travel times along ~~ Westwood Boulevard. Although small sample size caveats apply, travel times on Westwood Boulevard north of Pico Boulevard, since 2004 appear to have decreased in the morning in the `'i northbound direction and in the afternoon in the southbound direction. However, transit travel i> t_j times have increased in the opposite direction during both time periods. The net effect is about 1 minute extra round trip travel time in 2007 compared with that in 20Q4.- Even with the marginal improvements in transit travel times in some periods and directions, average transit travel speeds in this segment of Westwood are still very slow, averaging about 10 miles per hour in the morning and less than 7 miles per hour in the afternoon. Based on the experience in the Lincoln corridor, transit travel times in the Westwood Boulevard corridor could I~_~ be expected to improve significantly with the implementation of bus-only lanes on Westwood Boulevard. ! ' Installing such lanes along the alignment north of Wilshire Boulevard, in the Westwood Village -- retail core will be very difficult, given the already heavy demands .for parking in this area. However, the corridor between Wilshire Boulevard and Pico Boulevard offer better opportunities i~ for this treatment. Given the very slow transit travel times within the Westwood Boulevard . ~J corridor, the potential for significant transit travel time improvements due to bus-only lane :-, it Perteet, Inc Page V-13 - Figure 5.18: Measured Transit Y}avel Time Changes, Rco Boulevard, 2004 to 2007 Santa Monioa's Big Blue Bus ~~ ` ~~ ° ' + 2007lino-by-Line Analysis r + t +. operations are very hio t~a yltefiforts to'estabf shrbus--only lanestn th s relgion, Santa Monica, Big Blue Bus should supp The offers~somelllguidancecon pulbl c transportation.aThe mostsrelevant port on is Section 2.

The 58-passenger overcrowding criteria is shown as a red horizontal line.. 6.1.1 Line. 1: Santa Monica Boulevard Line 1, among the higher-ridership and productivity lines in the Big Blue Bus system, has nonetheless undergone a significant loss of ridership and productivity in recent years, having lost 25% of its riders since 1998. This significant drop in ridership has been continual over that period and is only partly explained by the findings of the line-by-line analysis. There appear to be additional reasons for the systemic drop in ridership which may fall outside the traditional route, schedule and operational analysis. typical of a line-by-line analysis. Based on historical Big Blue Bus ridership data, Line 1 has experienced- ridership declines over the past three Line- by-Line analyses, dating back to the mid-1990s. More than any other Big Blue Bus service, the Line 1 service area is covered by other lines, i, including Big Blue Bus lines 8, 10 and 12 and Metro lines 4 and 304. It is likely that a redistribution of ridership from line 1 to these other services has taken place over the past several years. Weekdays - As depicted by the graphs in Figure 6.2, maximum load by trip, while somewhat variable, do not i . represent a pattern of alternating heavy. and light trips requiring a general re-working of E„j schedules. In many cases, the heaviest trips already operate within a few minutes of other, lighter trips, though not in an alternating sequence. In most cases, riders tend to catch the first bus passing the stop with the second trip often exhibiting significantly lighter passenger loads. A larger problem occurs with rider overloads. For the purpose of this examination, overloads have been defined as trips having maximum passenger loads more than 20% in excess of ~= seated capacity. Two eastbound trips and three westbound trips were observed with maximum i ~ loads exceeding 120% of seated capacity. As the graphs depicted in Figure 6.2 show, the most severely overloaded trips tend to be single trips surrounded by other trips exhibiting significantly i lower maximum passenger loads. It is unlikely that adding additional trips will significantly ~. reduce the frequency of overloaded trips since, as noted, riders tend to climb on the first trip past their stop, regardless of Idad. In addition, line 1 has exhibited significant declines in both ~ ridership and productivity between 2000 and 2007, making the desirability of inserting additional trips questionable. The number of overloaded trips has declined significantly since the 2004 r'' line-by-line analysis. 1 :, %) -, ~'_ t, ~_ ~'~ ~~ 4"~ (=? 1 f `:,~ is ;; E: ;; ;.; ~;>7 (''J !:.! i 1 ;i I~ ~, ri '~ ~'.9 ~ 1 Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus 2007 line-by-Line Analysis Eastbound iza -- - - - ~IW ~ m~ ~..:~ YV t :f _ ~ S a' " i' ;20 c e ..4 i x i € i4 e y •.. - N Ov N ~ W 59 KL 10 ~ O O F` N r ~ ~{ [ill` W W ~.

This trip operated a couple of minutes early, perhaps signifying that the overcrowding is a chronic condition on this trip since the preceding trip operated on-time with many fewer riders. Westbound, no significant overcrowding occurred on any trips surveyed, although two westbound trips leaving UCLA at 3:20 PM and 5:07 PM exhibit some numbers of standees (see Figure 6.4.), but neither of these trips is significantly overcrowded. ~> F.., Perteet; Inc Page VI-3 - Figure 6.3: Line 1 Weekday Service Measures, Falt 2007 '..}I F:-o-1 ~_; ~. !. ~,. ti;`.f ~~ F ;, ~] F L 7 `-~ i ,~ 7 '1 ~;:~ ,: ~ ,: i 4:'; 1::~ (~ ii :~ kl 1 +i ~~ r'~ ~`a !:.~ 20 ( # ~ 0 ,- rn m' p5 ~S, p3 p5 , Perteef, Inc Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus 2007 Linn-6y-Line Malysis _~ - ~ rv w m a a' - - Trip Star[Time.

However, the rider declines on all 'I routes 1, 2 and 3 suggest there maybe other factors at play here. There doesn't seem to be 1, anything in the rider survey results from these three lines that sheds much light on this issue. t,.-~ No route or schedule modifications are recommended for weekday operations on line 2. ,t `" Saturdays No trips were observed being overloaded on Saturdays and no trip identified as unproductive (having less than 0.4 hoardings per mile.) Therefore, no recommendations for modifications are made for Saturday operations. Sundays No trips were observed as overloaded on Sundays and just one trip was identified as "' unproductive. No recommendations for modifications are made for Sunday operations. L:! 6.1.3 Line 3: LAX to UCLA ~~ Weekdays ' tt~ Eastbound, significant overcrowding occurs on the 6:47 and 11:32 AM trips. The earlier trip. E operated about 6 minutes late followed by a light trip. The 11:32 trip operated about 10 minutes late, followed by another standing load trip. This suggests that the 11:32 -and 11:47 trips. may ~.1 be chronically overcrowded. These trips should be monitored to determine how significant the L ;,, overcrowding is. Westbound the 12:50 PM trip was significantly overcrowded but trips on either side were not, suggesting ashort-term peak demand at this time but not severe enough to warrant remedial >> action. r+ :, 1 Perteet, Inc Page VI-5 FYgure 6.6: Line 2 Weekday Service Measures, Fall 2007 Santa Monica's Big Bluu Bus 2007 Line-by-Line Anatysis Northbound r :? !,yl, L:..

Hovvever, ridership from downtown Santa Monica to UCLA has dropped 16% since 2004, which cannot be affected by the 3 Rapid line while riders between downtown and the Green Line dropped by 4,927 riders compared to the current 4,478 currently carried by the 3 Rapid. At the very best, ridership between downtown and the Green Line has declined by about 450 riders per day, about 3% over the past three years ih addition to another 4,500 who have apparently switched to the 3 Rapid from Line 3. Ridership between downtown and UCLA declined by about 16% over that same period. ~-_ As mentioned above, the rider declines between ddwntown Santa Monica and UCLA over the past three years fs somewhat troubling. Some may be due to Metro Rapid operations although ~` that is less likely with Line 3 than with lines 1 and 2: It appears that other factors are also in play. i''i Several other overloads occur later in the afternoon, but none appears to be severe enough to e;, warrant any remedial action. .,, Saturdays Five northbound and five southbound trips were observed as carrying more than 20% standees on Saturdays but overcrowding was not severe on these trips and the overloaded trips were not generally bunched together. No trips were identified as significantty unproductive (having less than 0.4 boardings per mile.) Therefore, no recommendations for modifications are made for Saturday operations.

Bus Line 3R has begun operations since the last line-by-line analysis was completed in 2004. Line 3R operates anearly-identical alignment with line 3 between downtown Santa Monica and the Green Line station at Aviation Boulevard. Line 3R makes only 15 scheduled stops along that alignment. Weekdays on/y Line 3R appears to have siphoned riders off the Line 3. Total riders between downtown and the Green Line appear to have dropped by about 450 per weekday since 2004, about 3°!° over the past three years in addition to the.4,500 who apparently have switched to the 3 Rapid from Line 3. Two .Northbound and two southbound trips were observed with more than 20% standees. The northbound over-capacity trips occurred on the 6:55 and 7:10 AM trips. The first has standees from the Green Line all the way to Ocean Park Boulevard while the second has standees from LAX to Ocean Park. Since these trips are consecutive, with the second most severely overcrowded (26 standees), they should be monitored to see if the overloads persist. The southbound overloads are much less severe and require no action at this time 6 L Pedeet, Inc Page VI-8 ,,~ .i _~ ~,rt Gf1 F ~~.'~ 1 _.+ '.I ! f :f;,.~ ( , 1 ~1 Sc L Vi 11 ('.:~ ~- F ~i I i~li 4~a y, ~ t ~ , Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus ,_ 2007 Line-by-line Analysis 4 1O 4 g ~' ~a5 54 ~ - RQ P m'" 30 r N N ~, W r.

This suggests that the smaller vehicles used on the MiniBlue Lines 11, 40, 41, 42 and 44 could also be assigned to this route, at least in the short- term. While ridership is not robust on this line, ridership has increased in every Line-by-Line count since 2000 and has tripled since 1998. Saturdays No trips were observed as carrying more than 20% standees on Saturdays and just four trips were identified as significantly unproductive (having less than 0.4 hoardings per mile.) Saturday ridership on line 4 has decreased by about 4% since 2004. No recommendations for service reductions are being made for Saturday operations. Sundays Several Sunday morning trips were identified as unproductive, although ridership tends to pick up in the afternoon. Because Sunday ridership. on Line 4 has increased by over 20% since 2004, no specific recommendations for modifications are made for Sunday operations, despite the relatively low productivity of early Sunday morning services and late Sunday evening trips. Line 4 should be continued to be monitored to see if Sunday service should be cut back to reflect persistent low ridership. ._ ., Perteet, Inc Page VI-10 Figure 6.12: Line 3 Rapid Weekday Service Measures, Faii 2007 ';, ,, ,~;-:, E ~ F-l E:: i f" i r -n ~ jjI [~ .L tP~7r E3 ~1 }V -i u.

Ridership increased significantly between Century City and the Rimpau Transit Center. i; Weekdays This line exhibits typical unidirectional commuter characteristics with eastbound loads peaking in the afternoon and westbound ridership peaking in the morning. In neither direction is there significant overcrowding (15 or more standees). Ridership tends to be rather light in the off-peak direction, eastbound in the morning and westbound in the afternoon with acceptable loads in the peak direction. Boardings and alightings appear to be more or less evenly distributed across the line 5 alignment. Just one eastbound and one westbound trip were identified as carrying more than 20% standees. In neither case was overcrowding severe. The last two westbound trips appear to be underutilized, carrying only 4 total riders. However, since these are essentially westbound deadhead trips, no remedial action is recommended. Saturdays l No Saturday trips were observed as carrying more than 20% standees. Only a couple of very early and very late trips were identified as significantly unproductive (having less than 0.4 boardings per mile.) However, since these are relatively rare occurrences, no remedial action is recommended. ri ~_ ~ - Sundays Sunday ridership seems to mirror Saturday ridership patterns. No Sunday trips were observed as carrying standees and only two evening westbound trips were identified as unproductive. c ~~?

Weekdays on/y Ridership is relatively evenly-distributed throughout the service day and between trips. The highest trip ridership occurs on the 2:16 southbound trip with between 25 and 30 riders. Other. trips average 15-18 riders Ridership on line 6 totaled just 208 riders on its 26 trips, an average ofjust 8 riders per trip. However, since this is a new route, more time will be needed to assess the productivity of this line. Very heav~r passenger activity is concentrated at the two stops at 20`h Street and Pearl Avenue and at 20' Street and Pico Boulevard. Lesser levels of rider activity is spread throughout the rest of the alignment. At 22°/- late, line 6 had the highest proportion of trips operated late of any Big Blue Bus Line.

Ridership is up 5% on line 7 since 2004. Ridership is up along all route segments. This is one [` ~ of the most heavily-traveled lines in the BBB system with approximately 1.3,700 hoardings per weekday, 7,500 on Saturdays and 5,000 on Sundays and holidays. '';J Weekdays Significant instances of overcrowding occur multiple times per day on line 7 in both directions. ` Ridership tends to be heavy all day and no time-period-related correlations with ridership are :; apparent. 7 eastbound and 12 westbound trips exhibited passenger loads greater than 120% of seated capacity. .Many trips are seaerely overloaded and appear to require some relief (see Figure 6-12.) During the rider counts, many of these trips were operated with vehicles with seated capacities of less than 40 persons. The overcrowding could be alleviated somewhat by assigning vehicles with E l higher seated capacities to this line. Similarly, six westbound trips :were observed with a maximum load of 70 riders or more. Because of their distribution, these trips all seem to be time-related. ~ is not readily apparent whether adding additional trips will have a significant. impact on overcrowding on individual trips. Eastbound overcrowding tends to be less severe, confined to isolated. trips and variable in location, making the addition of new trips of doubtful effect. Significant overcrowding occurs on the 6:35, 6:55 and 7:15 AM westbound trips. Standing conditions persist almost from Rimpau to Bundy. Adding another westbouhd trip in -this timeframe should help alleviate this condition. Additional monitoring of schedule performance is recommended to determine the adequacy of existing scheduled running times. ~. ~ Perteet, Inc Page VI-16 ,i - Figure 6.21: Line 6.Weekday Service Measures, Fa112007 i. ~~ ~~ ~;: E!; Eastbound ca @: ~`, {{`` ~_'I t f, _1 F'1 ~:~ k':J #: G:;~ ~_a 4~ f~ ~, i{ ~, ~~ `.I ..-° o ~ k '~ ~ 9 s: W N 3 O 3 m m 3 ti > 3 v O 3. ~ yy 3 b 3 m > 3 y l 3. vp r 3 ~VO1 , O. yy 3 .

Only a9ne northbound and two. southbound trips are identified as significantly unproductive (hav'ing less than 0.4 hoardings per mile.) No remedial action is recommended Sundays No Sunday trips were observed as carrying standees. Nor were any identified as significantly unproductive.

Between Marine and Main and downtown Santa Monica, when compared to the rest of the route alignment, ridership remains relatively low, less than 7% of line ridership (see map) and exhibits negligible growth since 2004. All other segments have exhibited a much higher rate of growth, over 11%. Productivity puts it at the bottom group of BBB lines, although much of that low. productivity can be attributed to its significant travel via the Santa Monica freeway. Only the 4:48 PM eastbound trip exhibited any but the smallest degree of overcrowding, with a peak of about 20 standees throughout its freeway operation. Both the leading and following trips had excess seating capacity available. Westbound only minor overcrowding is in evidence, with no trips having as many as 10 standees. ~': j Although 37% of schedule observations were early, the bulk of those occurred eastbound in `' downtown Los Angeles in the morning and in .Santa Monica in the afternoon westbound direction. Eastbound trips pick up few passengers in downtown Los Angeles and westbound trips pick up relatively fewer passengers in Santa Monica. For this reason, the early schedule operation does not seem to be a problem inahese areas: Significant cost savings can be achieved by eliminating the service between Marine and Main ~; _~ and 4"' and Santa Monica Boulevard as is currently done on weekends. Ridership can be accommodated by other routes, such as lines 1 and 2 overthis segment. '~ Saturdays No Saturday trips were observed carrying standees.

The preceding and following trips did not exhibit overcrowding conditions. With only 5% of all observed trips running late and 15% running early, it is possible that scheduled running times on this line may be a bit long. While no specific recommendations are currently made for these two lines, it might make sense to monitor the overloaded trips and if additional trips are felt to be necessary, the addition ought to be made via the-Super 12 alignment and operation. Continued monitoring of Super 12 running times should be made to tighten up the early operation. 6.1.14 Line 13: Cheviot Hills/Westside Pavilion Weekdays - ~~ This line operates only during peak periods, operating 6 westbound morning trips and eight '' afternoon. eastbound trips.

These have been divided into short-term arid longer-term recommendations. 6.2.1 Short-term Recommendations Three recommendations are made for the short-term (next 2 years or less.) These are described in the following sub-sections. i. 6,2,1,1 Line 11 Service Enhancements In 2004, running every half-hour, line 11 carried 299 riders per weekday. At that time, that total _ represented a significant decline from previous line-by-line counts, which generally fell in the 400 to 475 daily rider range.. During all of those years, line 11 has operated weekdays only, with no weekend or holiday operation. ,. ` In 2007, line 11 service frequencies were increased from half-hourly to run every 15 minutes L-~ around its clockwise route alignment. As Figure 6.59 shows, ridership has increased significantly from 2004 totals as measured after the service increase. went into effect: a 133% (~a increase over 2004 and 52% above that of 2000. -' ~J This increase comes at the same-time as Santa Monica College is emerging as a major transit ~~ destination for Big Blue Bus users, growing significantly from previous years. Given the recent growth in ridership and productivity over that of 2004, Big Blue Bus should evaluate the feasibility of instituting weekend services on this line. ~-i An incremental approach, basing each subsequent increase in service upon ridership and l.~ productivity is recommended. Under this approach, a limited span of Saturday service at 30- minute frequencies would be the logical first step. While Santa Monica College is not in session ~, ~ on Saturdays, there is a moderate flow of students on and off the campus during weekends. Line 11, providing direct transfer connections to many other Big Blue Bus lines, could improve student access to SMC on weekends.

Later additional service improvements should be based on measured ridership and productivity improvements. A successful implementation of Saturday services should be followed with a comparable level of Sunday/holiday service. In addition to Santa Monica College, the future extension of the Expo LRT/BRT line into Santa Monica provides additional need for feeder service to the 14~' Street and/or 20`" Street stations (see Page 59 for additional discussion on this point.) The cost of operating 30-minute service Saturdays on line 11 is approximately $ 60,000: This is based on operating 11 service hours per Saturday, 52 weeks per year at the current Big Blue Bus operating cost of $104.per service hour. The cost of operating a similar level of service on Sundays (11 service hours per Sunday/holiday, 60 days per year, at $104 per service hour) is approximately $70,000.

That rail stub line has since been renamed as the Purple Line and operates along the Red Line right-of-way from downtown- Los Angeles as far as the WilshirelVermont Station where it diverts to serve the two stations at Wilshire Boulevard and Normandie Avenue and at Wilshire Boulevard and Western Avenue. The Wilshire/Western station is just 2:2 -miles from the Rimpau Transit Center. Connecting service to the Wilshire/Western Station would provide another major access between the Westside and downtown Los Angeles at relatively low cost. Big Blue Bus lines currently serving the Rimpau Transit Center are Lines 5, 7, Super 7 and 13. Of these, Line 13 provides an inadequate level of service to .serve as this important transportation link. Line 5 currently operates a lower level of service rQlative to the Purple Line and is inadequate to serve as the primary connection to the rail service. -Given the higher service frequencies on line 7, that line is the obvious choice to provide connector service to the rail line. Line 7 currently has the greatest ridership of any Big Blue Bus line and ranks second (to Line 1) in the number of weekday revenue miles of service provided. On weekends and holidays, Line 7 ranks 15' in ridership and second{to Line 3) in revenue miles of service provided. What decisions need to be made concerning the Purple Line connection? I • Line 7 has service frequencies on weekdays comparable to those of the Purple Line but ~ ~ somewhat lesser service frequencies than the Purple Lihe on weekends and holidays. Nonetheless, line 7 has. adequate service span and frequencies to provide the rail connection by itself. i ~'~ Perteet, Inc Page VI-01 'i"a r": I:_I i:.) Santa Moniea's Big Blue Bus ~ ""`~= 2007 Line-hy-line Malysis Lme Super 7 operates only dunng weekday peak periods and would have to share rail connection service with line 7, creating some level of uncertainty among eiders, since it has inadequate service span or frequency to carry out this function alone. ';;~ •: Because of the long route alignment of line 7, there is little likelihood ofdirectly meeting Purple Line arrivals and departures at Wilshire/Western directly.. So there is no -need to match service headways directly. Given line 7 frequencies, the average wait at Wilshire/Western for rail. to bus transfers, if all line 7 trips are extended, will be generally 5 minutes or less weekdays, 7.5 minutes on Saturdays and 10 minutes on Sundays, 10 .~ minutes evenings and 10-15 minutes at night (after 9 PM). ~'' Weekdays Given these parameters, there is little to be gained by increasing service frequencies on line 7 to match rail frequencies for the purpose of making direct connections. The major question is what level of wait times between bus and rail will be acceptable .to users? On weekdays, service frequencies are roughly equal between line 7 and the Purple Line, making the policy decision simple: attempt to approximately connect with each rail trip (every 10 minutes) or merely every other trip (every 20 minutes). During the evening, headways are 15 minutes for both line 7 and the Purple-Line,-making the ~~ same decision necessary. After 9:00 PM; the Purple Line headway is 20 minutes while that of (`t line 7 is 30 minutes, making this issue -moot, without increasing service levels over all of line 7. ~,.i The approximate additional vehicle, revenue hour and operating cost requirements for each G;~ weekday scenario are shown in Errors Reference source not found. . ,. Figure 6.6I: Weekday Vehicle, Revenue Hour and Cost Impacts ojService Scenarios Saturdays - As on weekdays, Saturday daytime service frequencies are roughly equal between line 7 and the Purple Line, making the policy decision the same: attempt to serve each rai(trip (every 15 ~z>? minutes) or merely every other one (every 30 minutes). i:_; During Saturday evening, headways are 20 minutes for both line 7 and the Purple Line: At night, after 9:00 PM, the Purple Line headway is 20 minutes while that of line 7 is 30 minutes, again making this issue moot.

The gap between rail and bus arrivals will fluctuate between approximately 0 minutes and 10 minutes. We believe this is an IS'~ acceptable wait time for Sunday service, thus there is only one scenario for; Sunday daytime ~. service. t~ Evenings the rail and bus lines have identical 20-minute headways making service to each rail t trip possible only during this period, roughly 6 PM to 9 PM.

Recommendation Given the uncertainty of precise connections between the line 7 and Purple Line services, it would be unwise to develop schedules with that as a goal. The more prudent approach is to provide a frequent level of service on line 7 between the Rimpau Transit Center and the Wilshire/Western station, allowing riders to transfer between services as best they can. Given the frequent service frequencies on both modes, average wait times will generally be 8 minutes or less. for the first scenario, meeting every train, and 15 minutes or less for the alternate scenarin_as shown in Figure 6-64. We recommend implementing service initially at the lower level of service to the rail station, serving approximately every other train as described- above. As demand increases, the decision can then be made concerning the desirability of increasing service frequencies. The Wilshire/V1lestern connection may also increase ridership on all of line 7 which could conceivably increase the frequency of passenger overloads, already a common feature of line 7. This may also accelerate the increasing of capacity on line 7: ' The service and cost impacts of the recommended service are shown in Figure s-65. ~:.)

The costs to the City of Santa Monica of implementing rapid service on tine 7 could come from i `~ three distinct sources: L Page VI-44 Perteet, Inc i ' F ° e 1 ~`~~ ~~:~xi Santa Monica's Big Blun Bus ' 2007 Line-6y-Line Anatysis i?'i i. Installation of trafFc signalpre-emption equipment and software z. Additional trips on the 7 Rapid line to compensate for missing morning eastbound. trips s. Additional trips to alleviate overloads on local line 7 after some trips are converted to 7 Rapid trips The benefits of such operation are primarily two: i. Reductions in travel time due to signal pre-emption and the reduction in the number of stops, and z. Relief of line 7 overcrowding due to riders switching from local to Rapid 7 trips. With signal preemption, it should be possible to reduce about 5 minutes in each direction from the existing Super 7 running time. In the afternoon, that will represent a full 13 to 14 minutes time savings over 7 local services, a significant incentive, for those who can use it,.to switch to the 7 Rapid Service, and a savings of 4 to 5 minutes over existing Super 7 service. Many existing local. line 7 riders could easily transfer to the 7 Rapid. Eighty-three percent (83%) of all current rider activity on line 7 local service occurs at one of the seventeen stops indicated on the map depicted in Figure 6.66. Conversion to a 7 Rapid line-would also make possible the extension to the Wilshire-Western Station of the 7 Rapid during commuter hours, with the 7 local providing that connection during off-peak hours. The approximate costs of service described below were based on keeping the line 7 local service frequencies unchanged, and implementing the 7 Rapid line at headways of 15 minutes in both. directions during commuter hours only. This reflects servic; levels similar to those currently provided by line 3 Rapid. The spatial distribution of activity on line 7 suggests that additional line 7 local trips could easily be converted to 7 Rapid trips in the future as demand warrants. Because the running time for 7 Rapid trips will be significantly less than for 7 local trips, converting local trips to Rapid trips. could well result in a net reduction in operating costs while having no adverse effect on ridership. Recommendation We recommend the implemehtation of 2-way line 7 Rapid service between downtown Santa Monica and the Rimpau transit center during weekday commuter periods only. Service should. ~vj commence at 15-minute intervals to start,. with the line 7 local service headways remaining unchanged from current levels (about 10-minute intervals during peak commuter hours. :, L_1 Perteet, Inc Page VI-45 Figure 6.66: Proposed 7 Rapid Aligrzmerzt and Stops •~ ~ ~ ~ ~ , ~ "' "~`~~ ,~~, Santa Moniea's Big Blue Bus ' 2007 Line-6y-Line Anatysis !'' 1 After implementation, ridership should be closely monitored as current spatial distribution of activity along the line 7 local alignment strongly suggests the potential for existing 7 local riders #o switch to the 7 Rapid services. The estimated operating cost increase of $280,000 for the implementation of 7 Rapid service is due primarily to the increase in service from the Super 7's current 20-minute headways to the 7 Rapid's proposed 15-minute service ahd the addition of eastbound morning service on the new line during a time when no existing Super 7 trips operate. 6.2.2: Mid-term Recommendations In addition to the short-term recommendations, .two additional. recommendations are being recommended for the mid term. r 6.2.2,1 Expanded Line 6 Expo Line Phase 1 Terminal A combination of the existing lines 6 and 11, could provide service between the office complexes and Santa Monica College and the developing Expo Line Phase 1 terminal at Washington and National Boulevards. .Service improvements could be provided to the following: ~. The Palms Boulevard corridor, z. The proposed Expo Line Station at Washington and National Boulevards, s., The West Los Angeles Transit Center at Washington Boulevard and Fairfax Avenue, a. The Kaiser Foundation Medical Center at Cadillac Avenue and La Cienega Boulevard It is possible, if not likely, that the West L.A. transit Center operations may be moved to the rail terminal when that facility opens. There are two approaches to this extension: Alternative 1 simply combines the existing lines 6 and 11, with minor modifications'to serve the Phase 1 Expo Line terminal. A potential alignment for this alternative is depicted in Figure 6.67. k j A second alternative is to connect this combined line with downtown Santa Monica from r~ Montana Avenue and 20`h Street via Montana Avenue and 4`" Street, eliminating service via 14"' Street. That alternative is shown in Figure 6.68. LS ~ Perteet, Inc Pa a VI-46 _ 9 Figure 6.67: Proposed Combined Lines 6 and 11 Altesnative 1 Alignment ~j ~~ r>~ Cr. Santa Monil:a's Big Blua Bus 2007 Line-by-Line Matysis These two alternatives and their variations result in the following four service options: 1. Mid-town to khe Kaiser Hospital complex _ _ 2. Mid-town to the Expo Line Station 3. Downtown Santa Monica to the Kaiser Hospital complex 4. Downtown Santa Monica to the Expo Line Terminal The approximate net. annual cost of each of the four options is summarized in the following table: - The net cost of each option is merely the difference between the annual cost of that option and the current operating cost of weekday service on lines 6 and 11, which- is approximately $ 777,000 per year, based on Fall 2007 costs and service levels. Figure 6.70 shows a proposed schedule of weekday services for Option 1 of this new combined . line at 15-minute service headways. The net weekday operating-cost as defined by the proposed schedule is approximately $1.2 million annually and would require 3 additional peak hour buses. [ Initially, only weekday service should be offered. If productivity is acceptable, additional service t~~ span could be considered at a later date. Big Blue Bus is currently out to bid.for30-foot hybrid- - electric buses.

Figure 6.70: Expanded Line 6/ 11 Schedule 6.2,2,2 UCLA-ExPoLink With the opening of the Expo Line station at Washington and National Boulevards, a direct link from that terminal station to UCLA needs to be provided. The obvious lines to perform that function are lines 12 and Super 12. During commuter hours, line Super 12 currently terminates very near to the proposed ;~ Washington/National station location. By moving the Super 12 terminal~to the Expo Line station, the UCLA link can be efficiently and economically provided. It is likely that this can be accomplished at existing service levels at no cost. r~ During non-commute periods, this function can be assumed by line 12 which passes within ,,,, approximately 1/3 mile of the proposed station. A short diversion down National Boulevard to the station and return will add perhaps 5 minutes to line 12's round trip running time. While this may make the schedule a bit tight, it should be possible without adding additional resources: In the interest of continuity, it would be desirable to operate line 12 through the station on all trips, ` including commuter periods, but running time concerns may make that difficult. Much of the observed late operation an line 12 occurred during the morning commute period. ~~ On weekends, line 12 should operate through the station on all trips. This can be accomplished within existing schedules. ~;- ;; Page VI-48 Perteet, Inc Eastbound ~ weswounu. -, '> «`;:, i ~..: a .:~ ,:.;, <:-., t:':i ~~ C` ,. ; E'j_'I ~.-:~ a ~,;,, t `I l.' i 6_I €-.., Figure 6.71: Proposed Santa Monica-Van Nuys Commuter Express Alignment 6.2.2.3 San Fernando Express There is a significant movement between the San Fernando Valley and the WeStside, particularly during commuter hours.

The proposed alignment is designed to provide significant transfer connection. opportunities with (j Metro lines and the Orange Line BRT at Van Nuys Station,, as well as along Van Nuys ~ j Boulevard at its intersections with Oxnard Street, Burbank Boulevard, Magnolia Boulevard and Ventura Boulevard before entering I-405 at Ventura Boulevard. The new line would exit I-405 southbound at Wilshire Boulevard in the morning, serving the VA Hospital on the way to downtown Santa Monica. The Alignment would be reversed in the afternoon. It is recommended that four AM southbound trips and four PM norkhbdund trips be initially implemented durirtg weekday commuter hours only: After a suitable period. of service maturation and monitoring, additional service may be added if warranted. A tentative weekday schedule of operations is shown in Figure 6.72. PM trips in boldface Figure 6.72: Proposed Santa Monica-Van NuysCommuterExpress Schedule Given this schedule, the new line will require three (possibly four) additional buses in the- morning .and four additional buses in the afternoon commute periods. This will consume an additional 12 ''/a platform hours of service each day at an approximate annual cost of $325,000, assuming. 253 weekdays of service per year and a $104 per revenue hour cost of service. Given the high proportion of the .proposed route alignment operated on the freeway, the cost of operating in two directions rather than just one is marginal, probably costing. less than an additional two platform hours per day, perhaps an additional $55,000 per year. ;_, ., Iti; Perteet, Inc Page VI-50 f =i i %_'.I~ Santa Moniea's Big Blue Bus 2007 line-6y-Line Anatysis 6.2.3: Longer-term Recommendations in addition to the short- and mid-term recommendations, we have identified some issues pertaining to the planned future extension of the Expo Rail Line from- its Phase 1 terminal at Washington and National Boulevards in Culver City to its ultimate terminus in downtown Santa Monica 6,2,3,1 Expo Line Extension Issues The Expo Line, an addition to the Metro Raii network, will extend light rail service along-the old Exposition Boulevard rail alignment connecting downtown Los Angeles with the 1Nestside communities of Culver City and, ultimately, Santa Monica. Direct connections will be provided with the existing Red and Purple lines in downtown Los Angeles at the 7"' Street /Metro Center terminal. The first phase;`of the -Expo Line, from downtown Los Angeles via Figueroa Boulevard and Exposition Boulevard to the intersection of Washington and National .Boulevards in Culver City, is expected to be completed in 2010. )~ A future extension of the line into downtown Santa Monica is envisioned at a later date to fulfill the Metro Board's "vision and intent to complete the light rail line to Santa Monica." To date, there are two alternate potential alignments of the segment between the intersections of ~~ Washington and National Boulevards and of Cloverfield and Olympic Boulevards:: •: Light Rail Transit (LRT) or Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) on .the Exposition Right-of-Way 'I"1 (ROW), or "`'! •: LRT on Venice Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard, re-connecting with the Right-of- Way at Sepulveda Boulevard-and continuing to Cloverfield and Olympic Boulevards. i j From the intersection of Cloverfield and Olympic Boulevards, there are a further two alignment ~i alternatives into downtown Santa Monica: :• The Santa Monica Department of Planning prefers an alignment along the existing f' Exposition Line_ right-of-way to 17`h Street in Santa Moriica, then continuing into downtown via Colorado Avenue to a terminal in the neighborhood of 4`h Street. r`t ~ ., ~; Perteet, Inc Page VI-51 Figure 6.73: Expo Lirie Alternate Alignmerzts _ ~~ , , " '`~'il ,~' Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus 2007 Line-6y-Line Analysis •: The.

For purposes of the Line-by-Line Analysis, we need only consider the alternatives within the City of Santa Monica. With this understanding,: Alignments E-1 and V-1 are identical within the City as are Alignments E-2 and V-2. For ease of understanding, we will henceforth refer to the City portion of Alignments E-1 and V-1 as the Colorado Alignment and the City portion of Alignments E-2 and V-2 as the Olympic Alignment. Station Locations Before discussing each of these two alignments in that will apply equally to both the Colorado and undergoing careful analysis and consideration, as Community meetings to address these various to during the winter and into the spring of 2008. more detail, there are a few considerations Olympic alignments. Station locations are are traffic and noise and vibration impacts. pics will be held by the Expo Phase 2 team Olympic Boulevard and CloverField Boulevard The preliminary station location at Cloverfield Boulevard at Olympic Boulevard should be .reconsidered as part of this process. {.~ f->j 4;1 _. Pedeet, Irrc Page VI-52 `` r "` ~ s6"~, rp ` ~' " ° '" " "" Santa Monica's Big Blnn Bus 2007 lino-6y-Line Analysis Using Metro's adopted Grade Crossing Policy, the Expo Phase 2 team is currently conducting a detailed grade crossing study, using a traffic model that generates a traffic analysis of each location where a proposed line would cross an existing street. There are many factors ';3; considered in the crossing study such as the BRT or LRT turning radius, pedestrian movement and estimated peak hour traffic volumes.Z F~ Because of vehicle volumes at this location, BuildExpo is planning aBRT/LRT overcrossing of ~:~ this intersection. This overcrossing makes the location of a rail station at this intersection problematic for a number of reasons: •: Given the planned overcrossing of this intersection, the station will need to be an elevated one, increasing concerns about access by the disabled as well as increased construction costs, The intersection of Cloverfield Boulevard and Olympic Boulevard is a difficult one to negotiate by pedestrians, both from the standpoint of vehicular traffic volumes at this location as well as the sheer physical size of the two roadways and the difficulty providing signalized pedestrian crossings at this intersection, and 4• .Increased pedestrian crossings resulting from location of a rail station at this intersection will necessitate re-programming the traffic signals to permit safe pedestrian access. to the rail station, thereby further impeding the high vehicular volumes already in evidence. At present, the intersection is already very difficult for pedestrian crossings. The addition of an elevated rail crossing, increased pedestrian movements, somewhat restricted vehicular movements caused by support pillars for the elevated rail right-of-way and modified signal timing will only exacerbate an already-trying intersection. The City should seriously investigate relocating the rail station from this intersection. Fortunately, a relatively simple alternative exists nearby. Stewart Street and Olympic/Exposition BoulevaMs Just one-block to the east, an at-grade location at Stewart Street between Olympic and Exposition Boulevards is available for this station. This location avoids the drawbacks associated with the Cloverfield Boulevard site and is within :easy walking distance of that intersection. At at-grade station will also ameliorate disabled access difficulties and be a lest- costly alternative.-The subsequent overcrossing of Cloverfield and Olympic Boulevards without the rail station will have a much lesser negative effect on pedestrian and vehicular movements at that location. Currently, a parking lot for Santa Monica College is also located at this location. With rail operations at this site; there is the opportunity for SMC to develop additional academic uses of their property in addition to its existing parking uses. 14th Street / 20th Street While existing plans call for a station. in the vicinity of 14'h street, that station could perhaps be relocated to 20th Street to better accommodate transfers to Santa Monica College. Although either location is well-served by Line 11 providing 15-minute service to SMC, the 20th Street location is also served by lihe 44 Sunset Ride and could easily be served by a short extension of line 6 to Santa Monica College. Although transfer access is somewhat more limited than at 20th Street, the 14th Street site better approximates the mid-point between the proposed Stewart Street station site and the 4`h Street station site in downtown Santa Monica. z Expo Phase 2 E-News, Volume 2, (November 2007), Page 2 .t Pedeet Ino- Pale VI-53 ~ ~ ~a~~ ~ ~r~~i~ g~~~F~ Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus "I ; ~{ ~~~f~i ~ 2007 Line-6y-Line Anatysis Downtown Santa Monica Existing plans call for a downtown terminal station at or around the intersection of 4~' Street and Colorado Avenue. While this is a central location for downtown Santa Monica destinations, there may be valid reasons to extend the alignment to Ocean Avenue to better serve the Santa Monica Pier. While the Pier is within walking distance of the 4'~ Street terminus, elderly and disabled riders would be better served by service continuing to the entrance to the Pier. A secondary consideration concerning downtown alignment is the street real estate required for light rail operations. With two way track and median stations, the alignment wilF remove one traffic lane in each direction and also remove parking from one side of the right-of-way. In the case of Colorado Avenue, this will leave two lanes for general traffic (one in each direction) and parking only on one side of the street. The downtown terminus III require three parallel tracks and two median. stations between track pairs to permit the bypassing of disabled vehicles at the critical location. This will require the entire Colorado Avenue right-of-way for at least one block (and perhaps two) east of the terminal station. , Moving the terminal station to Ocean Avenue will move the associated terminal streetscape requirements farther from the downtown Santa Monica business and retail core. _ ~`~ Alignment Considerations Each of the alternate alignments, the Colorado Alignment and the Olympic Alignment presents ff'' i its own set of requirements on the City and on the existing transportation infrastructure. This R::,, section will look at those requirements in more detail Colorado Alignment A number of considerations need to be taken in evaluating the Colorado Alignment, favored by the. Santa Monica Department of Planriirig, as discussed in the following sections. 17th Street and Colorado Avenue The Expo Right-of-Way has been preserved into Santa Monica as far as 17`" Street. West of that location, operation of an LRT/BRT line will necessarily be diverted to City streets. For the Colorado alignment, an at-grade alignment, this necessitates a fairly tight jog in the Expo Line to continue operation via Colorado Avenue into downtown Santa Monica. To make this jog, buildings located at either the southwest or southeast quadrants of the intersection of 17`h Street and Colorado. Avenue will likely. need to be razed in order to facilitate the turn to and from Colorado Avenue (see Figure 6.74.) The alignment shown in Figure 6.74, taking out the structure on the southeast corner of the intersection (structure "B") is preferred from a traffic perspective because it permits the rail line to enter Colorado Avenue at the signalized intersection. Signal pre-emption for the rail vehicles, stopping traffic on both Colorado Avenue and 17`" Street, will be necessary to assure driver and pedestrian safety at this intersection. Pedestrian gates will likely also be necessary at this intersection to prevent pedestrians trying to cross ahead of the Expo Line vehicle. An alternate alignment, taking out the structure on the southwest corner of the intersection (structure "A"), while making the turn for the rail vehicles much less acute,. will result in the rail line entering Colorado Avenue somewhat to the west of 17'" Street, requiring additional traffic control signalization and gating than otherwise would be required. r., ,_.

The addition of a third set of rails and a second platform, to prevent- disabled vehicles from shutting down the line, will require the entire Colorado Avenue right-of-way at the terminal. Existing land uses along Colorado Avenue ~~I west of 5'h Street appear to be cdmpatible with this requirement, with no retail businesses `i depending upon on-street parking appearing to be present. Figure 6.75 shows an aerial view of the Colorado Avenue terminal vicinity. ' Olympic Alignment ,~:; The Olympic Alignment, favored by the Exposition Metro Line Construction Authority ="`l (BuildExpo), presents unique difficulties of its own. This alignment deviates from the Colorado {,~ Alignment at the intersection of Olympic Boulevard and Cloverfield Boulevard, continuing west along Olympic Boulevard to downtown Santa Monica Elevated vs. At-Grade Operation '' From this point, there are several approaches to operating the rail line through the Olympic Alignment: ~' - - ~) i. at-grade via the median planting strip along Olympic Boulevard z. at grade along one edge of the existing Olympic Boulevard right-of--way (probably the ~.: northern edge) .>a ;; s. via an elevated structure in the median strip `' a. via an elevated structure along one edge of the existing Olympic Boulevard right-of-way <^ In choosing between these alternatives, a major choice will need to be made concerning the -J relative importance of 1) vehicular capacity and flow and 2) visual appeal. An elevated structure will probably have the lesser impact on existing traffic volumes and flow along Olympic Boulevard.. However, that structure- will probably have the largest negative impact on the f; aesthetics of the Olympic Boulevard right-of-way. In addition, the existing. vehicular volumes. at Olympic Boulevard ahd Cloverfield and Lincoln r` Boulevards are above maximum levels for at-grade operation, requiring an elevated structure at ~} these locations in any case. In addition,-the vehicular traffic along Lincoln Boulevard at Olympic is often backed up for blocks due to the entering and exiting: I-10 traffic. Significant delays to any at-grade rail operation at this location are inevitable. `" Rioht-of-Way 1 The choice of where within the Olympic Boulevard right-of-way the line is to operate will also require. the same choices to be evaluated. Operation in the median strip will almost certainly require the removal of the large shade trees currently growing there. Not only will this reduce 4 ~ the visual appeal of the Olympic Boulevard right-of-way significantly, but wilt surely result in ~`l major opposition by local citizen groups. 1 Operation along the edge of Olympic Boulevard will likely require the loss of two traffic lanes as well as on-street parking along Olympic Boulevard, resulting in a net loss of existing vehicular '~" -i capacity. ~, West of 11r' Street, the at-grade versus elevated rail right-of-way becomes moot as the Olympic ' Boulevard right-of-way also provides vehicular access to and from the I-10 freeway.

The most obvious location for such a station is in the roughly rectangular area currently used as a parking lot immediately west of 4th Street and south of Colorado Avenue (see boxed area in Figure 6.77 ). While there is ample space for a terminal.at this location, a potential difficulty arises from the I ~ .fact that the rail alignment will of necessity be elevated over 4~' Street at Olympic Boulevard. To ;, '. utilize this site as a terminal, the terminal itself will need to be an elevated one as the drop from an elevation above 4th Street to one at surface level (which is itself below the level of 4th Street) -;i will present significant engineering problems due to the grade required for this descent/ascent. t. j ~ ~ Santa Monica Municipal Pier The comments concerning the desirability of extending the alignment to the entrance to the Santa Monica Municipal Pier, .discussed above, apply equally to the Olympic alignment. However, with the alignment entering the CBD on Olympic Boulevard, there does not appear to be a simple. means of extending this alignment to the Pier without taking out one or more major buildings in the downtown area. While this could conceivably be done, it makes thelikelihood of an extension to the Pier entrance much less feasible, more costly and therefore less likely. r -1 Feeder and Transfer Bus Service Considerations E`' One of the major consequences of the extension of the Expo Line to downtown Santa Monica is the need to provide feeder bus service to the proposed stations. Satisfaction of this need will ~~ require. a significant modification of bus service orientation within the City of Santa Monica. Currently, the major orientation of Big Blue Bus services within -.the City is in the east-west ,h ; direction. While there are a few exceptions to this generalization, notably it the downtown core ,. ; and by lines 11 and 14, it can still be said that north-south transit circulation within the City of F`' Santa Monica is limited. ~ j While providing service to the proposed Expo Line stations will not require a wholesale redesign j of the entire system,. steps will need to be taken to provide more north-south service delivering riders to them. Since the construction of Expo Line facilities within the City is still some years ~: away, the following evaluation will be somewhat general in nature. This is a fit subject for more ;~- detailed stud to a future Line-b Ltne Anal sts t'-= y Y- Y Line 4 Carlyle/San Vicente As lines 7 and 7S (see below) line 4 operates very near to a.planned Expo Line station on Sepulveda Boulevard just south of Pico Boulevard. When Expo Line operations begin, line 4 fi should be modified to serve this station because it provides a direct link from the Expo Line to ~ the Veterans' Administration Medical Center complex. Any .frequency. modifications to line 4 `5 should be made on the basis of ridership changes. ;, ., ` j Line 5 Olympic Boulevard Line 5 is a generally east-west .oriented line serving the Colorado Avenue and Olympic Boulevard corridors. This line passes very close to planned stations at Bundy Drive, Stewart .I Street and 20th Street. However, since the line 5 alignment is roughly parallel to the Expo Line -~ alignment in this area, there is little need for enhanced services on line 5 to serve as an Expo Lirie feeder route. r., t::; i - i:: Perteet, Inc Page VI-58 i ~ ~ ~ gp~~ii~. ~"~'~ Santa Monica's BigBlue Bus ~" ~ ' 2007 Line-by-line Analysis Line 6 Santa Monica College Line 6 provides limited services to Santa Monica College during selected time- periods on weekdays. Currently line 6 terminates on 20th Streefjust north of Olympic Boulevard. While this will serve a 20`h Street station on the Olympic Alignment, this line will need to be extended slightly further north to accommodate a 20th Street station on the Colorado Alignment. ,., Alternately, line 6 could be re-aligned from Santa Monica College east via Pico Boulevard and " north via 28th StreeUStewart Street to provide additional access to SMC from the Expo Line, using the proposed Stewart Street station rather than the 20th Street station already served by line 11 (see below). Such a re-alignment would also require a significant increase in frequencies and span of service on line 6 to adequately serve the Stewart Street Station. ``';' Lines 7 and 75 Pico Boulevard ~! ~ The existing alignments of lines 7 and Super 7 operate within a short distance of a planned Expo Line station at -Sepulveda Boulevard at the Expo Line right-of-way just south of Pico Boulevard. Line 7 (and perhaps both lines) should be deviated to serve the Sepulveda station rj when Expo Line service at this location is implemented. The 7 and Super' 7 will provide an easy and direct connection between the Expo Line and Santa Monica College. Existing frequencies Frr ~ on the two lines are adequate for feeder purposed and should be increased only on the basis of z j overcrowding. ~,i Line 10 Downtown Los Angeles Express Like line 14 (see below), line 10 will serve the Bundy Drive Expo Line station. However, due to the similarity in the rider markets of the two services, there is little likelihood of significant transferring between the two. Riders bound for downtown Los Angeles will, however, have an additional alternative service available for their trip. This may be one case in which Expo Line operations could adversely affect ridership on a Big Blue Bus line. For that reason, ridership on Line 10 should be closely monitored after Expo Line operations begin: Line Si Crosstown Line 11 currently operates in a one-way (clockwise) loop providing northbound service along 14`h Street fiom Pearl Street to Montana Avenue and southbound service along 20`h Street from Montana Avenue to Ocean Park Boulevard. In order to expand the geographic scope of the feeder service to the Expo Line, it may be desirable to extend line 11 further north from Montana Avenue to San Vicente Boulevard With a station located at either 14'h Street or 20'h Street, there will be increased need for service in both directions around the loop to reduce travel times for transferring passengers. Additional weekend and holiday services on this line will be needed to provide improved access during those periods. Line 12 Palms Line 12 passes directly by a planned Expo Line station at the Expo Line right-of-way and Westwood Boulevard, providing a direct connection between the Expo Line and the UCLA campus. Any additions in service on line 12 should be determined by ridership impacts of Expo Line operations. Line 12S UCLA Commuter i •~ The southern terminus of the line Super 12 is currently very close to the proposed site of the Phase 1 Expo Line terminus at Washington Boulevard and National Boulevard in Culver City. '`. ~:.;' Pedeet,lnc Page Vh59 "' ~ ~; . ~3 , q ~wil. Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus ' 2007 Linti-6y-Line Anatysis Line 12 should be slightly modified to provide service to the Expo Line station as soon as Phase 1 operations begin. As does line 12, line 12S passes directly by a planned Expo Line station at the Expo Line right- of-way ahd Westwood Boulevard, providing a direct connection between the Expo Line and-the UCLA campus. Any additions in service on line 12S should be determined by any ridership impacts of Expo Line operations. Line 14 Centinela The site of a planned Expo Line Station located adjacent to or on the Expo Line right-of-way just south of Olympic Boulevard is currently served by line 14. Continued feeder service to this station will require higher frequencies than line 14 currently provides.. It is likely that a dedicated feeder. line to the Bundy Drive-Expo Line station will be required to complement the existing service to this facility pfovided by line 14, but this additional service need not necessarily be provided by Big Blue Bus. This proposed station site is located outside of the City of Santa Monica in the City of Los Angeles. "" Line 44 Sunset Ride i Line 44 provides service in a large clockwise loop defined by 281h Strget/Stewart Street, Pico ~`'' Boulevard, 20'" Street and Colorado Avenue as well as a smaller loop serving Santa Monica t" College. The larger loop will serve both the Stewart Street and the 20~' Street. stations. Given ~ > the service frequencies oh line 44, it is unlikely that a high volume of transfers between line 44 `;~ and the Expo. Line wilt occur, No modifications in line 44 operations due to Expo Line E, operations are recommended at this time. ~ ~ 6.3 SERVICE RECOMMENDATION SUMMARY ~:; The previous sections have described the seven categories of recommended changes resulting from the analysis of information developed as part of the Line-by-Line Analysis. Those seven categories of changes have. included 10 specific recommended changes as well as a discussion of alternative Expo Line rail extension alignments. We have also discussed issues resulting from ~~ the planned extension of the Expo Line westward from the Washington Boulevard and National ~~ Boulevard Station to downtown Santa Monica Figure 6.78 summarizes those projects. and issues, placing each recommended transit service change in one of three tiers of recommended actions: i I`' >• High priority changes that can be implemented in a short time frame. Medium priority changes which may also require significant additional funding ~~ investments.
