General Information: Citibus is proposing to build a central transfer area for 11 fixed routes providing 265 route trips per week day. The proposed transfer facility would have a climate controlled indoor waiting area for passengers. The area would have seating for approximately 50 people with additional area to accommodate another 100-150 standing passengers. Restroom facilities for both passengers and operators, vending machines, and a pay telephone would also be included. The proposed transfer facility would also include an information area for passengers and a sales outlet for the sale of econocards. Eight to nine buses will provide service to the transfer facility every thirty minutes and additional buses will utilize the facility at other times during the hour. With approximately 600,000 passengers per year boarding or deboarding the bus at the present downtown transfer area and 280,000 passengers transferring buses to complete their trip, the transfer facility will provide an indoor waiting area for passengers. Thirty percent of daily passengers must transfer to complete their trip. The current transfer area consists of shelters located on four corners of Broadway and Texas Avenue in downtown Lubbock (see Attachment A). Because all four corners must be utilized to allow room for eight to nine buses to park for passengers boarding, deboarding, and transferring, a passenger safety problem is created. A number of passengers have to cross at least one street and a large portion of the time two streets must be crossed to transfer to connecting buses. During inclement weather or peak traffic periods, buses can run a few minutes late. This forces passengers to transfer in very short periods of time or causes them to miss their transfer completely. Passengers having to cross one or two streets in a hurry fail to follow all safety precautions. Passengers fall on slippery streets and sidewalks and run out in front of vehicles on the street. A passenger has been hit by a vehicle and there have been a number of incidents where passengers were almost hit or caused vehicle accidents when vehicles were forced to stop suddenly to avoid hitting a passenger trying to transfer quickly. Although there are shelters downtown for passengers who have to wait for their bus, during inclement weather the shelters are not adequate. Approximately ten percent of Citibus ridership are elderly and/or handicapped passengers. A number of elderly passengers have also expressed that they do not always feel safe waiting downtown. A manned transfer facility would help alleviate some of these fears and would provide a more adequate shelter from inclement weather. Bus operators currently must stop somewhere on the route to use restroom facilities. Operators are instructed to stop only on lower traffic volume streets, however most of the lower traffic volume streets are very narrow and traffic can back up when the bus is parked on the side of the street. This causes a dangerous situation when vehicles go around the bus and also creates some animosity from the public towards the transit system. This problem would be taken care of by providing separate restroom facilities for the operators at the downtown transfer facility. An outlet for econocard sales and an information center would also be located at the transfer facility. Approximately 12 percent of Citibus' passengers use econocards as fare for their trip. Currently passengers have to make a special trip to Citibus or one of the other outlets to purchase econocards. The purchase of the econocard could become a part of one of their normally scheduled trips instead of a special trip. Passengers would also be able to receive route information, directions and route maps at the transfer facility. Making econocards and information more accessible to passengers would improve service to current passengers and make it easier for new passengers to become more comfortable with using the transit system. Presently if an operator has problems with a bus that does not affect safety but requires the replacement of the bus, a maintenance employee meets the bus operator downtown with another bus. The bus must be parked on the street downtown while waiting for the operator to arrive. This causes an already congested area to become even more congested when all the buses begin to arrive downtown. This problem could be eliminated by allowing the extra bus to be parked off the street in the transfer facility parking area. Also if a bus needs only minor maintenance attention, it would allow the work to be done off the street in a safer environment, allowing the work to be done more quickly and permitting the bus to continue on route promptly. Citibus is proposing an increase in transit service in Lubbock. This increase would create two additional routes. The areas that would be served by the proposed route changes would necessitate more buses coming into the downtown area but at different times. More passengers would have to wait to make their transfer. Our present transfer area is over crowded and there is no room for additional shelters to handle the added passengers that must wait. The transfer facility would help handle the additional passengers waiting for their connecting bus. Citibus' demand response service provides service to approximately 30,000 passengers per year. A transfer facility 19 would provide a place for passengers to transfer to and from the vans used in the demand response service. Citibus works with demand response passengers who are temporarily handicapped or who can with some assistance and education utilize the fixed route system by providing them the information needed or directing them to local service agencies for assistance. The transfer facility would allow some demand response passengers to use the fixed route service when possible and only use the demand response service to go to areas not serviced by the fixed route. This would help maximize the number of citizens that can ride on transit. The transfer facility could also be utilized by local and area transportation providers to pick up and drop off passengers. This would reduce the cost of providing transportation to their passengers and allow them to provide transportation service to more people. Both the Levelland, Texas and the Crosbyton, Texas transportation providers have indicated the benefit of such a central facility (see Attachment B and C). They realize the possible benefits of the transfer facility and feel that some coordinated dispatching effort from the transit facility would improve their operation. The facility as planned would allow room for an additional dispatch person to be in contact with the rural transit systems and coordinate the pick up and drop off of passengers. This would permit a much better utilization of the rural transit provider resources and a superior coordination effort between the rural systems and Citibus. The terminal for Texas, New Mexico, & Oklahoma Coaches (TNM&O), the local over the road transit provider, is located only four blocks from the downtown area and could be utilized by their passengers coming in from out of town that do not have local transportation. The proposed transfer facility site would be on the route that the TNM&O buses coming into Lubbock from the north, east and south would take to travel to their terminal after the Interstate 27 construction is complete. This construction should be complete about the same time that the construction for the proposed transfer facility would be completed. The proposed facility will be located within a block of the current transfer area (see Attachment A) , therefore there will not be an increase in route times necessary. Operations will benefit from the ability of passengers to transfer more quickly and safely. Operators sometimes have to wait for buses that have been delayed in traffic so that all passengers can transfer and complete their trip. This causes a number of routes to run late at different times of the day. Once the late buses arrive downtown, there are further delays while passengers cross one or two streets under traffic to get to their bus. The design of the proposed transfer facility would allow for quick efficient transfers. Operators at times have their field of view obstructed by another vehicle and miss passengers trying to cross the street to board their bus at the present transfer area. The design of the proposed 20 transfer facility would also give the operators full view of passengers deboarding all buses. During extreme inclement weather, Citibus provides up to two extra buses downtown for passengers to wait in. This requires two operators to stay downtown sometimes all day on some occasions with the buses running to keep them warm. Operations would definitely be improved by the elimination of the need for these buses with the construction of the transfer facility. Operations would also be improved with the construction of a transfer facility by providing a safe off-street area for maintenance to do minor repairs to buses that do not require replacement and also a much safer place to exchange buses that have mechanical problems. Providing restroom facilities in the proposed transfer facility for operators would improve the safety of Citibus' operations. Operators will be required to utilize the facilities at the transfer facility and not stop on route creating traffic hazards. LIFE Independent Living Center executive director, Larry Gardner, believes that the transfer center would make transportation more accessible for handicapped people in the Lubbock community (see Attachment L). LIFE works with handicapped people to find accessible housing, employment and transportation. Citibus would also operate the dispatching function out of the proposed transfer facility. This will not require additional personnel, only the relocation of the current dispatching function located at Citibus' office/maintenance facility. II. Potential Energy Savings and/or Other Benefits: A. Fixed Route: Fuel savings would be derived from the estimated 10 to 15 percent increase in passengers utilizing public transportation because of the increased safety, convenience and security provided by an indoor transfer center. Of the estimated one million passengers that will ride the fixed route in FY 1991, 30 percent will transfer downtown. The following computations are based on an anticipated 10 percent increase in passengers, an estimated trip distance savings for each new passenger of 8 miles, an average of 12 m.p.g for automobiles of the new passengers, and an estimated price of $1.15 per gallon of gasoline. FY 1991 passengers - 1,000,000 FY 1992 passengers - 1,100,000 (10% increase) 21 Fuel Savings FY 1992 passengers-1,100,000 FY 1991 transfers-1.000,000 additional 100,000 add. passengers 100,000 trip length X 8 mileage savings 800,000 mileage savings estimated mpg fuel/gallon reduction fuel/gallon reduction price per gallon (gasoline) estimated fuel savings 800,000 12 66,667 66,667 X $1.15 $76,670 B. Demand Response Service: It is estimated that 1,000 passengers per year could use the transfer center via the demand response service. The following computations are based on an estimated 5 miles reduction per passenger for each passenger trip, an estimated 8 m.p.g for the vans, and an estimated fuel price of $1.05 for diesel fuel. additional passengers 1,000 trip length X 5 mileage savings 5,000 mileage savings 5,000 estimated van mpg 8 mileage reduction 625 mileage reduction price per gallon (diesel) estimated fuel savings 625 X $1.05 $ 656 C. Extra Buses Downtown During Inclement Weather: Citibus currently parks two extra buses downtown during inclement weather for passengers to wait in between 200 and 400 hours a year . The following computations are based on an average of 300 hours per year required use of the extra buses and a hourly cost of $20 (variable cost only). number of hours required 300 variable costs X 20 total costs $6,000 D. Coordination With Other Transportation Providers: It is estimated that 2500 passengers per year could utilize the transit facility and complete their trip on the fixed route system. The following computations are based on an estimated 5 miles reduction per passenger for 22 each passenger trip, an estimated 8 m.p.g for the vans, and an estimated fuel price of $1.05 for diesel fuel. additional passengers 2,500 trip length X 5 mileage savings 12,500 mileage savings 12,500 estimated van mpg 8 mileage reduction 11563 mileage reduction price per gallon (diesel) estimated fuel savings 1,563 X $1.05 $ 1,641 The estimated total energy saving for fuel follows: fixed route $76,670 demand response service 656 extra buses in inclement weather 6,000 coordination with other systems 1,641 total $84,967 The estimated total energy savings for a five year period, estimated at an increase of 5 percent per year: FY 1992 $84,967 FY 1993 89,215 FY 1994 93,675 FY 1995 98,359 FY 1996 103,277 Total $469,493 E. There are a number of other benefits associated with the construction of an indoor transit facility. Some of the benefits have been listed previously. A summarized list follows: 1. Estimated increase in ridership of 10 percent. The added convenience and security will influence current passengers to ride more often and attract new passengers. 2. There would be increased passenger comfort. This would influence current passengers to make additional trips and not postpone trips during inclement weather that they normally would have. 3. Increased passenger security in the indoor facility. Passengers would feel safer waiting in an area manned by Citibus staff, instead of a street corner, especially during the early morning and late evening hours. 4. Increased passenger and operator safety by being able to transfer off the street away from traffic. 23 5. Increased efficiency in route performance with the ability of passengers to transfer in a more efficient manner. 6. Increased public safety with the buses parking offstreet to board and deboard passengers and also by operators not having to stop on route to use restroom facilities. 7. The ability of passengers to purchase econocards and acquire route information at the facility. S. Such a facility would provide higher visibility for Citibus and demonstrate the importance of transit in the community. This is very important with the increased awareness of oil dependency and the need for alternative modes of transportation to reduce this help dependency. The indoor facility would help attract new transit riders that have not viewed buses as a transportation alternative. III. Feasibility: For a number of years, the private operator of the Lubbock Bus Company operated an indoor transfer facility in downtown Lubbock. In the 1950s, the facility was closed and subsequently ridership levels experienced a sharp and immediate decline. The private operator, Albert Fortenberry, has since stated that the closing was the major cause of the ridership decline and suggested that the construction of another facility would be an appropriate way to increase ridership. In 1981, the transit department conducted a study and developed recommendations for a transfer facility. The Transit Advisory Board supported the recommendations and presented them to the City Council. The City Council recognized the need, but was unable to fund the facility at that time and set up a "temporary" transfer area at the current location with the plan to construct an indoor transfer facility at a later time. During FY89, planning firm RTKL conducted a downtown revitalization plan for the City of Lubbock. Their plan recognized the need for a transit facility and recommended the site proposed. Their plan includes a number of downtown development efforts, all of which would contribute to the importance of a transfer facility and would help attract new passengers. The City Council unanimously approved the plan. As a result of the RTKL plan, a downtown revitalization committee was formed. The committee, CenterCorp, has over 100 business members and is very active in the acquisition of funding for a transfer center. They have made numerous presentations to civic groups concerning the downtown area and the benefit that a transfer facility would have for Lubbock. 24 As a part of Citibus' FY1990 planning program, LKC Consulting Services was employed to conduct a comprehensive system analysis. Part of their requirement was to make recommendations of ways to increase ridership. Their recommendations included route modifications and the construction of an indoor transit facility. They recommended the downtown area as the site for the transfer facility. In April 1990, during the comprehensive system analysis, a boarding and alighting survey along with a passenger survey was conducted. A transfer matrix for the weekday and the Saturday surveyed was compiled (see Attachment D and Attachment E) and resulted in a 34 percent passenger transfer rate. Documented below are the fixed route ridership and transfer figures for the previous four years and the projections for FY1991: FY87 FY88 FY89 FY90 FY91 passengers 916,486 901,037 915,165 969,290 1,000,000 transfers 245,647 260,894 261,245 267,628 300,000 Citibus contacted a number of systems that had in the past few years constructed transfer facilities and their increase in ridership ranged from 2 percent to 20 percent. More than likely not all of the increase can be attributed to the new facility, but an estimate of an increase of 10 percent in an area that supports the facility such as Lubbock is realistic. A 10 percent increase in ridership from the FY1991 projection of 1,000,000 passengers would yield an additional 100,000 passengers. With an average fare of $.48 (current Citibus average fare), this would result in a $48,000 increase in revenues. Approximately 60 percent of all passengers board or deboard at the current downtown transfer area. This calculates into about 585,600 passengers in FY1990 and an estimated 600,000 passengers in FY1991. With an increase of 10 percent in ridership for FY1992, approximately 660,000 would utilize the new transfer facility. IV. Plan• Several sites were analyzed to determine the most appropriate location for the center. These sites, which were initially proposed during 1981, when Citibus first began to study the possibility of a downtown transfer center, were: Site A - The block bounded by Broadway, Ave. G, 13th Street, and Ave. H. Site B - The block bounded by Main Street, Ave. J, Broadway, and Ave. K. Site C - The block bounded by Broadway, Ave. J, 13th Street, and Ave. K. 25 The sites were evaluated based on proximity to the current transfer location, current land use, and cost of the land. The costs of alley acquisition and utilities relocation were constant for each site, and were not considered in the site analysis. Proximity to Current Transfer Estimated Location Current Use Land Cost Site A 1 block Vacant Land $ 550,000 Pawn Shop Tool Shop Cafe Site B 4 blocks Attorneys $ 2,500,000 Vacant Bldg. Misc. Retail Site C 3 blocks Attorneys $ 1,260,000 Misc. Retail Vacant Bldg. Parking Lot Cafe Sites B and C are located in a more heavily utilized area of downtown Lubbock, as the estimated land costs indicate. Both of these sites are operationally suitable, but it is the feeling of the City of Lubbock staff that both of these sites would be more appropriate for an adaptive reuse project which could utilize the existing structures. This would also help maintain the design integrity of downtown Lubbock's primary street, rather than for a project that would require clearing the site and constructing a new facility. This would be necessary to provide adequate space for off street bus parking. Site A, on the other hand, is largely vacant land and substandard buildings, and any construction on the site would enhance not only the site itself but the surrounding downtown as well. One of the recommendations in RTKL's study was to develop a major public square for use as a transit center. The site that was proposed by RTKL was Site A in the previous site analysis, which is one block to the east of the existing transfer point. (see proposed site location, Attachment A) They indicated that the site was the most appropriate location in downtown for several reasons: Its proximity to the current transfer point and to the Citibus maintenance and administrative facility are important for smooth operations of the system and the physical condition of the site, for the most part, the site is vacant land, which reduces the costs for land acquisition and site preparation. The site is in an area that has declined, although it is adjacent to the Federal building, the Lubbock County 26 Courthouse, and the Lubbock County jail. For the most part, the site itself is vacant land, and many of the lots are owned by Lubbock County (see Attachment H for current land uses): Estimated Demolition Lot # Owner Current Land Use Est. Value` Costs 1-2 Private Texas Tool $95,000 $27,000 3-5 Private Loans $75,000 $13,000 Vacant Land 6 Lubbock County Vacant Land $20,000 Vacant 7-8 Lubbock County Vacant Land $35,000 Vacant 9-10 Private Swat's Loans $55,000 $15,000 11-12 Lubbock County Vacant Land $55,000 Vacant 13 Lubbock County Vacant Land $15,000 Vacant 14 Lubbock County Vacant Land $15,000 Vacant 15 Lubbock County Vacant Land $15,000 Vacant 16-20 Private Vacant Land $135,000 $45,000 Chandlar's Cafe Huber's Pawn Alley Acquisition" $35,000 ` Based on assessed value and comparable land sales in the area. An updated appraisal will be completed prior to Federal approval of capital funding for this project. " The alleys in the targeted block are privately owned and must be acquired as any other privately -owned property. The total estimated project cost is as follows: Estimated Actual Value $550,000 Utilities Relocation (Burying 725,000 existing above -ground utilities, including electric lines and telephone trunk lines) Demolition, Business Relocation 100,000 Architectural/Engineering 107,500 Construction and Landscaping 750,000 Contingencies and Administration 267,500 TOTAL $2,500,000 27 As part of a presentation to the Lubbock Public Transit Advisory Board on the proposed project, Citibus staff prepared preliminary sketches. Although done in a very conceptual manner, the sketches were used to illustrate the possible uses of the site. The preliminary site plan included a building for dispatch/pass sales/route information and indoor passenger waiting area. The preliminary estimate of total enclosed square footage is approximately 6,000 square feet. The climate -controlled passenger waiting area will accommodate about 150 people and there will be seating for approximately 50 passengers. The preliminary site plan includes a circulatory path for buses that completely removes them from the street when they are boarding and deboarding passengers. From the standpoint of passenger safety and automobile traffic, this arrangement seems to be most appropriate. Landscaping and an area for employee parking are also included in the preliminary site plan. Attachment J illustrates the preliminary site plan. The estimated cost to operate the new facility is $25,000 per year. This includes $20,000 in maintenance and $5,000 in supplies. Citibus staff is considering a number of possibilities to fund these additional costs. It would be possible to charge a transfer fee of $ . 05 or $ .10 and generate from $15,000 to $30,000. It might also be possible to have private entities operate small concession facilities and charge them rent to help pay for the operations cost. The additional projected revenues of $48,000 would also be enough to cover the additional cost. Citibus staff and the Transit Advisory Board will review each option carefully and make the best decision. The proposed construction schedule is as follows: Arch/Eng design October 1991 Purchase land October 1991 Demolition December 1991 Begin construction January 1992 Complete facility May 1993 The City of Lubbock has plans to purchase the entire block in conjunction with their UMTA grant. An appraisal has been done and is currently being updated. The City of Lubbock will exercise eminent domain if it becomes necessary. V. Notice of Public Hearing: A public hearing was held on February 27, 1991 at the regularly scheduled Transit Advisory Board meeting. A notice of the public hearing was published in local newspapers (see Attachment K for narrative). C VI. Environmental Assessment: Attachment F illustrates the site's location and adjacent land uses. None of the buildings on the site, or in the immediate area could be considered historic, and there are no parks in the area that would be impacted by development. The site is not located in or near a wetlands area. The traffic volumes that are shown in Attachment G are based upon current traffic levels and projections that were prepared by RTKL. The projected increases are due to changes in traffic patterns following completion of I-27, which is approximately five blocks east of the proposed site. The facility itself will have little impact on traffic in the area, since the same number of buses are using the current transfer point. A copy of Ms. Peggy Crist's (with UMTA) correspondence stating that the transfer center may qualify as a categorical exclusion in accordance with Section 771.117 (d) (10) of 49 CFR Part 622: Environmental Impact and Related Procedures, is enclosed as Attachment M. State Oil Overcharge funds in the amount of $370, 000 have been approved to provide a portion of the local share of the cost of the Transfer Center. Two Lift Equipped Replacement vans: The vehicles will replace two 1986 model lift equipped vans utilized in Citibus' Demand Response Service. Due to the age, mileage on the vehicles and present oil consumption, both vehicles are expected to need transmission and engine overhauls in the next twelve months. The interior is in need of extensive repair and the both wheelchair lifts have begun to require excessive maintenance. One van has 151,500 miles and the other van has 145,000 miles. Both vans will have approximately 165,000 miles at time of replacement.

State Oil approved in the amount of $26,000 29 to provide local share of the purchase of the vans. Proposed Schedule: Project Bid October 1991 Award Project December 1991 Delivery of Vehicles March 1992 Passenger Amenities: Shelters and signs are needed along current routes that have been identified as areas where a high number of passengers board and deboard the bus. The replacement of some shelters and signs is also necessary. These are necessary to continue the current level of service and to encourage and increase ridership. The implementation of the route expansion will create the need for additional shelters and signs along the routes. Proposed shelter and sign locations are as follows: Location # Shelters # Signs 38th and Ave J. 2 1 South Plains Food Bank 2 13 50th & Ave. Q 2 50th & Boston 1 50th & Memphis 1 50th Street (route 6) 25 Target 1 2 Wal-Mart 1 2 4th & Frankford 6 United (4th & Slide) 1 2 Route 11 1 20 34th & Chicago 2 2 VFW (34th & Slide) 1 2 Route 4 2 35 17 110 The shelters will cost an estimated $5,200 each to purchase and install and the signs will cost an estimated $105 each to purchase signs, decals, and post and to install. Proposed Schedule: Project Bid October 1991 Award Project December 1991 Begin Installation January 1992 Complete Installation May 1992 Bus Wash Replacement and Repair Parking Area: This would replace the current bus wash and repair the parking area surrounding the bus wash. Because of the humid nature of the bus wash facility, the manufacturer specifies the life expectancy to be only seven year. The bus wash was installed in 1981 and Citibus has spent approximately $1,500 yearly to 30 extend its life. The "I" beam supports and the bus wash frame work are rusted severely and are beyond repair. In the final report of the Comprehensive System Analysis (a part of the FY 1990 Technical Study), LKC Consulting Services highly recommended that the facility be replaced to reduce the risk of major breakdown of the bus wash. The parking surface surrounding the facility is in need of extensive repair due to high vehicle traffic. The area is constantly needed to be patched to fill in potholes. A concrete would help eliminate these problems. Fleet Maintenance (subcontractor to LKC Consulting Services during the Comprehensive System Analysis) estimated the cost of replacement at $150,000. The City of Lubbock's engineering department estimated the cost to remove the current asphalt, saw and seal concrete not needed to be replaced and the construction of a concrete parking surface at $70,000. Proposed Schedule: Project Bid January 1992 Award Project March 1992 Begin Construction May 1992 Complete Construction September 1992 Facility Improvements: There are four basic improvements requested. 1. The enclosure of the air compressor alcove. This needs to be enclosed to meet OSHA requirements. The current box around the compressor does very little to dampen compressor noise and makes it difficult to access for maintenance. A concrete block wall with double doors to provide direct access to compressor is needed. 2. Build a wall for steam area and install lighting. As a part of the preventative maintenance practice, engines are steamed cleaned a few days prior to inspection to locate and repair all leaks. The present steam area is at the entrance to one of the work bays and in constantly wet due to the steam cleaning. The construction of a wall will separate this area and eliminate the slippery condition. 3. Replace oil drain arms with rolling drain pans. The current drain arms are leaking and outdated. The leakage is causing the floor to be slippery around the oil drain area and a possible dangerous environment. The replacement with rolling drain pans would provide a larger target when draining oil and they have a dry break coupling to prevent drippage. 4. Repair air line manifold in lube room. The manifold needs to be reconditioned and provided with a lubricator 31 on each pump air inlet. The air line lubricators will help extend the pump life.

Texas January 22, 1 W'�r St 40 �f, ;10 N CITIBuS W ft Cf I VFQ I would like to voice my support for your effort to construct a transfer facility in Lubbock. I have spoken with you a number of times in the past about the benefits to Lubbock and the surrounding area that a central transfer facility would have. A large percentage of our service is provided for medical trips to the city of Lubbock. Due to the fact that your system provides service to most medical facilities in Lubbock, a central transfer facility would allow us to utilize your fixed route system for our passengers. The ability to drop of passengers at one location would permit us to provide more economical service and be able to service more people. Due to the nature of our passengers, it is very important that the design of the ffacility include a sheltered waiting area. Elderly passengers would -need a place to wait protected from the weather. As you know it is very important to continually look for ways to provide more and better service so that we are able to maximize our limited resources. If I can be of further assistance, feel free to contact me.
