Highway Projects – PPP Candidates Proposed Highway Projects- Potential P3 Candidates Existing Metro Rail and Bus Rapid Transit System Proposed Highway Projects Area of Potential Alignments
I-710 South Corridor • Improvement of 18 miles of freeway: • Freeway widening to 10 lanes • Construction of 4-lane exclusive tolled freight truck corridor (16 miles) • Improvement of most existing interchanges • Connects Ports of LA and Long Beach with rail distribution centers in East Los Angeles • Circulate Draft EIR/EIS in Spring 2012 • Environmental complete in Spring 2013 • Measure R: $590 Million* • * includes Early Action Projects
I-710 South Corridor – Initial P3 Analysis P3 Delivery: DBFOM of tolled freight corridor P3 Partner Responsibility: Financing Final Design Construction Operations Maintenance Metro/Caltrans Responsibility: Early Action interchange projects Freeway widening and other improvements to be constructed as funds become available Funding, Financing & Repayment: Funding is insufficient for cost of capital development $2.5 billion of public funds needed to advance the freight corridor through right-of-way acquisition and construction Truck tolls different for peak/off peak Reduced toll incentives for low-emission trucks P3 Option Benefit: Achieves earlier traffic relief by shifting trucks onto the freight corridor Tolling revenue plus private financing could cover more than 80% of the freight corridor costs Represents a neutral “value for money”
SR 710 North • Extension of existing Long Beach Freeway to I-210 • Proposed tunnel for significant portion of alignment • Alternative Analysis complete Fall 2012 • Draft EIR/EIS complete Fall 2013 • Measure R: $780 Million • 4.5 Mile Gap between SR-134 terminus in Pasadena & SR-710 terminus in Alhambra • Over 100 Square Mile Area
SR 710 North – Initial P3 Analysis P3 Delivery: DBFOM Project Assumptions for PPP Analysis: Twin 57’ diameter deep bore tunnels Approximately 21,000’ alignment No intermediate interchanges 4 lanes in each direction Phased construction & opening of tunnel bores Schedule: ROD - 2015 Completion - 2025 Funding, Financing & Repayment: Funding is insufficient for cost of capital development under a nominal delivery option Tolling and P3 delivery appear to provide adequate funding Phased opening of tolled tunnels increases financial robustness P3 Option Benefit: Could accelerate completion by 4 years Represents a potentially positive “value for money”
