Meeting_Body PLANNING AND PROGRAMMING COMMITTEE JANUARY 18, 2017 Subject/Action SUBJECT: Regional Rail Update through December 2016 ACTION: RECEIVE AND FILE Heading RECOMMENDATION Title RECEIVE AND FILE Regional Rail Update through December 2016. Issue ISSUE The Regional Rail unit of the Program Management Department is responsible for providing overall coordination, management, and the programming of funds for Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority's (Metro) commitment to the commuter, intercity, and high speed rail networks serving Los Angeles County. This unit also manages and coordinates capital improvement projects along the Metro owned railroad right-of-way. Discussion DISCUSSION Metro is the largest member agency for the Southern California Regional Rail Authority (SCRRA), the operator of the Metrolink commuter rail network. Metrolink carries approximately 42,000 riders per day throughout the southern California Region. Metro is a member of the Los Angeles - San Diego - San Luis Obispo (LOSSAN) Rail Corridor Agency. This Joint Powers Authority (JPA) coordinates the passenger rail services of the three carriers (Amtrak, Metrolink, and COASTER) within this intercity rail corridor. Metro is instrumental in the planning and coordination efforts within the County of Los Angeles for the future high speed rail system connecting northern California to southern California. Staff is also involved with regional and statewide agencies working to develop integrated passenger rail service in the state. The Regional Rail team coordinates and leads capital improvement projects for the Metro owned and Metrolink operated right-of-way. Capital Projects The Regional Rail unit has 10 capital improvement projects that it is actively managing. These projects range from planning studies to the design of capacity and safety related projects. See Attachment A-1 and Attachment A-2. 1. North Burbank Airport Station (Station), Antelope Va...
