2005-06 – 2015-16 California State Rail Plan
San Jose, time has been added to the schedule that will be taken out at the
completion of construction. (See Chapter II for additional information about
capital projects.)
RIDERSHIP, REVENUE, AND FAREBOX RATIO
The CCJPA’s goals for ridership, revenue, and farebox will be achieved through
the capital, operational and service improvements, and service expansions
discussed in this Chapter as well as in Chapters II, III, and IV.
• Increase annual ridership 88 percent from 1,323,000 to 2,483,000.
• Increase annual revenues 86 percent from $16.0 million to $29.8 million.
• Increase revenue/cost (farebox) ratio from 38.9 percent to 44.6 percent.
TEN-YEAR PLANNED TRAIN SERVICE EXPANSION PLANS
INCREASED SERVICE FREQUENCIES
The Department, in conjunction with the CCJPA, anticipates there will be eventual
demand for eighteen round-trips on the Capitol Corridor between Sacramento and
Oakland.
It is important to note that the start-up dates for service are based on projected
service needs. Demonstrated ridership demand, approval from Amtrak and the
relevant railroad(s), availability of capital funding and equipment, completion of
necessary capital projects, and availability of additional operating funding will
affect when each of the service improvements can be implemented.
The Department and the CCJPA’s proposed expansion of the Capitol Corridor is
as follows:
2006-07 San Jose-Oakland, fifth, sixth, and seventh round-trips.
Sacramento-Roseville, second and third round-trips.
Roseville-Auburn, second round-trip.
2008-09 San Jose-Oakland, eighth and ninth round-trips.
Oakland-Sacramento, thirteenth and fourteenth round-trips.
2010-11 San Jose-Oakland, tenth and eleventh round-trips.
Oakland-Sacramento, fifteenth and sixteenth round-trips.
Sacramento-Roseville, fourth round-trip.
Auburn-Oakland, third round-trip.
2012-13 San Jose -Oakland, twelfth and thirteenth round-trips.
Oakland -Sacramento, seventeenth and eighteenth round-trips.
Sacramento-Roseville, fifth and sixth round-trips.
Roseville-Auburn, fourth round-trip.
