STAFF REPORT PL.~NNING DFP~IRT~IGNT RANGHO Date: October 22, 2009 C,UCAMONGA To: Mayor and Members of the City Council Jack Lam AICP, City Manager From: James Troyer AICP, Planning Director Subject: JOINT CITY COUNCIL AND PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING REGARDING FUTURE REGIONAL BUS RAPID TRANSIT OPPORTUNITIES Background This joint meeting of the City Council and Planning Commission is to review and comment on a presentation by Omnitrans regarding the future opportunities for Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) in the Inland Empire Region. Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is a transit system that utilizes bus-like vehicles to emulate transit service similar to light-rail. A BRT system developed by Omnitrans, the San Bernardino Express (sbX), is soon to be in service in the City of San Bernardino, and is planned for expansion to link communities throughout the San Bernardino Valley. The sbX will provide an efficient and cost-effective rapid transit option for the rapidly growing region. The state-of-the-art system uses ,sleek new alternative-fuel vehicles that will quickly transport passengers between business and government centers, retail malls, medical centers, and universities. This new high- tech, user-friendly system will offer more frequent service, fewer stops, and higher average speeds than traditional bus service. Omintrans will be performing a significant alternatives analysis study that will study future Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) along the Foothill Corridor in the future. The purpose of tonight's meeting is for the City Council and Planning Commission to review the presentation by Omnitrans and provide comment to Omnitrans and staff regarding the presentation. A representative from our General Plan consultants, Hogle-Ireland, will also be in attendance for tonight's presentation to provide background on the link of future Bus Rapid Transit opportunities to the General Plan Update currently being reviewed by the City.
