Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Implementation Study for South Placer County8.0 SUGGESTED NEXT STEPSThis section provides a summary of the study conclusions and next steps.Study ConclusionsThe evaluation of the potential BRT market in south Placer County indicates that the type, mix and density ofland use planned for the following developments make them strong candidates for housing future BRTstations.• Placer Ranch Specific Plan area, particularly the planned CSUS – Placer Campus• Galleria Mall expansion project• West Roseville Specific Plan Town Center• Placer Vineyards Center at Watt Avenue• Planned Corporate Center at SR 65/Blue Oaks BouelvardThe H-P campus area and the Taylor park-and-ride center are existing activity centers that are goodcandidates for BRT stations.Three candidate BRT routes are identified that would serve these future BRT stations. For each of the threeroutes, specific improvements are identified ranging from dedicated HOV/transit lanes to intersection queuejump lanes to transit signal priority.As development proceeds, transit service can be phased in over time. Depending on the location, sequenceand level of development, interim transit service may include express bus service, “enhanced” bus service,fixed route service, and/or shuttle service.Next StepsThe following actions are recommended to facilitate the implementation of transit service in south PlacerCounty.• Designate BRT station locations in new Specific Plan areas and preserve sufficient right-ofwayfor access, bus pick-up/drop-off areas, and park-and-ride facilities.• Adopt Specific Plans that identify land use types and densities - within ½ mile of future BRTstations - that are supportive of future BRT service.49
Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Implementation Study for South Placer County• Designate segments of Blue Oaks Boulevard, Fiddyment Road, Watt Avenue, and SunsetBoulevard as potential future BRT corridors and preserve sufficient right-of-way to providetwo dedicated arterial/HOV transit lanes in the future.• Designate key intersections as potential future BRT bypass locations and preserve sufficientright-of-way to provide queue bypass lanes.• Adopt a funding mechanism for new developments that provide for capital as well asoperating & maintenance costs for future transit service.• Initiate coordinate efforts with affected jurisdictions and transit agencies to establishmanagement, operational, phasing, and funding plans for future transit service.50
