The entire length of the line was purchased by RCTC in 1993.Rail service in this corridor is expected to begin in 2008 and would operate threetrains from Perris to Riverside with continuing service to Los Angeles during themorning period. Two mid-day, off-peak trains would operate daily, one in eachdirection. In the afternoon peak period, three trains would operate fromLos Angeles to Perris. Travel time would be 40 minutes. Headways would be50-60 minutes during the peak periods. Rolling stock would be additional bi-levelcommuter coaches acquired for the Metrolink fleet.Daily ridership is estimated at 4,151 by 2010 and up to 7,472 by 2025. Capitalcosts are estimated at $186 million and the annual operating and maintenance costis estimated to be $6.1 million in 2010 and $8.4 million in 2025.Redlands ExtensionSan Bernardino Associated Governments (SANBAG) purchased the RedlandsSubdivision from the Santa Fe Railway (now BNSF) in 1993. The Redlands railservice is currently being planned by SANBAG and service is anticipated to beginby 2015. The proposed Redlands service assumes Metrolink service to Rialto/E Street and Fixed Rail Transit to Redlands.Fixed rail vehicles would operate along the railroad ROW from University Streetin Redlands to a new station at E Street in downtown San Bernardino. The vehicletype would be compliant passenger vehicle, a Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU),capable of operating with freight rail services and Metrolink type trains. Most ofthe existing track would be constructed to be double-tracked to allow for15-minute headways all day long. There may be sections that could be singletrackin order to reduce initial capital costs but still maintain service quality.Daily ridership is projected at 11,000. The estimated capital cost is $144 million.The annual operating and maintenance cost is estimated to be about $71 million.Santa Paula Branch LineVentura County Transportation Commission (VCTC) acquired the Santa PaulaBranch Line from the Southern Pacific Railroad in 1995. The 32-mile long railline includes approximately 29 miles of existing track from Montalvo to Piru and3 miles of abandoned (removed) track between Piru and Rancho Camulos. At thewestern end of the line, there is a Metrolink layover facility and station atMontalvo in Ventura County, within the Oxnard-Thousand Oaks metro area.At the eastern end of the line, in the City of Santa Clarita is the Saugus Metrolinkrail station, which serves the Santa Clarita Line.The City of Santa Clarita and the Newhall Land & Farming Company haveexpressed interest in reinstituting branch line service to connect to the Saugusstation and Metrolink service.148
Chapter IX – Commuter Rail ServicesCurrently, excursion services are operated between Fillmore and Santa Paula.The UP provides limited freight rail service on this corridor. VCTC recentlyinitiated a study to investigate rail options on the Santa Paula Branch Line. Thereare also plans for a recreational trail in the ROW.Fullerton-Laguna Niguel/Mission Viejo Service EnhancementThe Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) decided at its October 14,2005 meeting to pursue increased Metrolink service frequencies between Fullertonand Laguna Niguel/Mission Viejo. The expanded service would result in theoperation of daily trains every 30 minutes between 5 a.m. and midnight. CurrentlyMetrolink provides mostly weekday peak-period service.Service ImprovementsAs of September 2007, Metrolink expects to continue weekday service at 145trains each weekday, and expand weekend service to 78 weekend trains on four ofthe seven routes.The proposed weekday service levels in the SCRRA Strategic Assessment for thenext 10 years are provided in Figure 9E.Figure 9EMetrolinkWeekday Service Levels for the Strategic AssessmentLines Current 2010 2015Ventura County 20 18 28Antelope Valley 24 24 32San Bernardino 34 34 48Riverside 12 12 2291 Line: LA-Riverside 9 0 491 Line: LA-Perris 10 16LAUS-Oceanside 10 10 10LAUS-Laguna Niguel/San Juan Capistrano/Irvine 9 16 16Fullerton-Laguna Niguel 20 20IEOC 16 20 24Burbank Turn 11 12 12Total 145 176 232149
