Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Implementation Study for south Placer CountySeptember 8, 2006• Assumes hourly headways during peak period and off-peak period• Model forecasts approximately 1,200 daily boardings for BRT line‣ Long-Range Scenario 1:• Single BRT line• Extends BRT line on Watt Avenue north to planned Placer Ranch area via plannedPlacer Vineyards and West Roseville Specific Plan areas• Assumes 15 minute headways during both peak period and off-peak periods• Model forecasts approximately 2,750 daily boardings for BRT line‣ Long-Range Scenario 2:• Three BRT lines• BRT Line 1 - Extends BRT line on Watt Avenue north to Placer Ranch via plannedPlacer Vineyards and West Roseville Specific Plan areas• BRT Line 2 – New BRT line from Watt/I-80 light rail station to planned Placer Rancharea via I-80, Galleria Boulevard, Roseville Parkway, Washington Boulevard, BlueOaks Boulevard, and Fiddyment Drive• BRT Line 3 – New BRT line from Galleria Mall area to Sunrise light rail station viaRoseville Parkway, Douglas Boulevard, Sierra College Boulevard, Hazel Avenue,and Folsom Boulevard• Assumes 15 minute headways during peak periods and 30 minute headways duringoff-peak periods• Model forecasts approximately 5,870 total daily boardings for all three BRT linesThe boardings identified above for each of the alternatives represent boardings made in Placer County only.The total number of daily boardings for Long-Range Scenario 2, including boardings in Sacramento County, isapproximately 8,200. The 5,870 boardings forecast for the three BRT routes, for Long-Range Scenario 2,comprise about 30 percent of the total transit boardings forecast for the 61 future bus routes (e.g., with BRTrepresenting 3 of the 61 routes) included in this alternative.4.6 SUMMARY OF POTENTIAL BRT MARKET REVIEWAn evaluation of the projected roadway volumes, land use forecasts, and travel patterns described aboveyields the following conclusions.‣ The type, mix and density of uses planned for the Placer Ranch Specific Plan area make itthe candidate BRT station site with the highest ridership potential.‣ The existing and planned uses in the Galleria Mall area make it a candidate BRT station sitewith high ridership potential.‣ The existing and planned uses in the H-P Campus area make it a candidate BRT station sitewith high ridership potential.25
Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Implementation Study for south Placer CountySeptember 8, 2006‣ The uses planned for the following locations make them good candidate BRT station sites.• West Roseville Specific Plan Town Center• Placer Vineyards Center at Watt Avenue• Planned Corporate Center at SR 65/Blue Oaks Boulevard‣ The existing Taylor park-and-ride lots is a good candidate BRT station site, given its location(i.e., proximity to I-80) and its planned expansion.26
