  1. Hillsborough County MPO Transit Study Transit Concept for 2050 October 23, 2007 Lucie Ayer, AICP

  2. Transit Technologies

  3. Technologies Considered • Bus • Light Rail • Commuter Rail

  4. Bus • Standard or articulated high-capacity vehicles • Special lanes or signal priority – Bus Rapid Transit • Advantage of flexible service • Congestion problem

  5. Commuter Rail • Locomotive pulling passenger cars • Shares freight tracks • Flexible capacity • Peak hour service • Long haul or suburb to city • Needs to run flat and straight

  6. Light Rail • Powered from above by electric wires • Has its own tracks • Frequent service • All day service • Suburb to city and urban area travel • Quick acceleration • Can climb and turn

  7. Study Summary

  8. MPO Transit Study Process Identify Analyze Recommend Needs And Opportunities Transit Concepts Preferred Scenario August September June

  9. Transit Needs & Opportunities

  13. Getting to the 2050 Concept • Serving existing and emerging activity centers • Serving growing and redeveloping areas • Measuring the potential for station area development • Respecting community character and land use policies • Grounding ourselves in reality • Appropriate transit technology • Rights of way • Costs
