SUBJECT : Livermore-Pleasanton BART Extension Study
EXHIBITS ATTACHED : Request for Proposal received October 29, 1982
RECOMMENDATION : Consider Extension Study RFP and comment
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None
DESCRIPTION : The Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART) is presently requesting
proposals for an updated study of the 1976 Livermore - Pleasanton
Bart Extension Study. On November 3, 1982, Staff attended a meeting
held by BART staff for the purpose of receiving comments from all
interested parties on the content of the Request for Proposal and
route alignment. At that meeting, two alternative route alignments
were discussed; one which provided a BART Station in the vicinity
of Stoneridge, the other would provide a Station near Tassajara
Road. At that meeting, Staff requested additional time to comment.
BART representatives indicated that because their present timetable
has already been established, they would only accept comments from
Dublin until November 9, 1982.
If the City Council has any comments with respect to the extension
` study, those comments should be communicated to BART at this time.

WORKSCOPE FOR BAY AREA RAPID TRANSIT DISTRICT
UPDATE ANALYSIS OF THE LIVERMORE-PLEASANTON BART EXTENSION STUDY
The following tasks will be performed by the Consultant:
I . System Conceptual Design - This task requires the reevaluation of
conceptual design features of the BART extension to Livermore as
defined in the Livermore-Pleasanton BART Extension (LPX) Study (1976) :
A. Route Alignment Alternatives: A reevaluation of the LPX Study
alignment is required with particular consideration to be given to
the following:
1. Original alignment between the existing Bay Fair Station and
I-580 should be reanalyzed taking into consideration that SR
238 may not be widened to accommodate BART within its median.
2. General Plan Amendment (1981) of the City of Pleasanton which
realigned BART from downtown Pleasanton to a north Pleasanton
alignment along I-580 east of I-680.
3. Proposed Commercial/Industrial/Residential development for the
Livermore-Amador Valley (i .e. Hacienda Business Park, Bishop
Ranch, North Bluff, Las Positas, East Livermore/Vasco Road
Industrial Park, et.al .)
4. Southern Pacific/Western Pacific Railroad consolidation in the
Pleasanton/Livermore area.
5. City of Livermore ownership of a proposed BART station site at
the intersection of Stanley Boulevard and Murietta Boulevard
in West Livermore.
B. Station/Storage Yard Locations: A reevaluation of the LPX Study
station and transit vehicle storage yard sites is required for
each alternative route with particular consideration to be given
to the following:
1. Castro Valley Station site analysis requires incorporation of
the Castro Valley BART Station Site Selection Report (March
1982) prepared by the Alameda County Planning Department, the
BART Planning & Analysis Department and the Alameda County
Roads Department.
2. Dublin-Northwest Pleasanton Station site analysis requires
consideration of proposed local developments and BART route
realignment possibilities.
3. Pleasanton Station site analysis requires reevaluation of a
downtown location versus a north Pleasanton site.
6
4. West Livermore Station site analysis requires consideration of
the City of Livermore's ownership of a proposed BART station
site at the intersection of Stanley Boulevard and Murietta
Boulevard. Additionally, the proposed construction of an
underpass at Murietta Boulevard and overpass at Isabelle
• Avenue (both of which are to be coordinated with the local
• railroad consolidation) must also be considered.
5. East Livermore Station and Transit Vehicle Storage Yard site
analysis require consideration of a proposed overpass at North
Mines Road, proposed industrial development between North
Mines Road and Vasco Road, and the Southern Pacific/Western
Pacific Railroad consolidation.
6. Additional station site analyses require consideration of all
proposed/anticipated development within the LPX Study Area.
C. Patron Access: An analysis of passenger accessibility to the BART
extension is required. Consideration must be given to
coordination with and transferability between transportation modes
(BART rail , bus, auto, bicycle, pedestrian).
D. Right-of-way availability should be considered a critical issue in
items IA, IB, and IC above as well as potential conflicts between
the extension of BART and existing rail , street, highway, utility
& pipeline facilities and all proposed/anticipated industrial ,
commercial and residential developments.
E. Products: A written report will be completed on the System
Conceptual Design analysis (Interim Report I) and will be orally
presented by the Consultant. Additionally, aerial photographic
maps and base maps with topographical details will be prepared
delineating each analyzed route with associated stations and
transit vehicle storage yard.
II. Revenue Service Characteristics: A reevaluation of the extension's
revenue service is required to determine whether a mainline extension
is desirable at the existing Bay Fair Station, or whether the LPX
Study concept of a shuttle operation between the Bay Fair Station and
Livermore is more appropriate. For each extension alternative, an
analysis of BART rail service schedules, travel time, line haul
`` capacity and patronage is required. A written report will be
completed on these Revenue Service Characteristics (Interim Report II)
and will be orally presented by the Consultant.
III Cost/Revenue Analysis: For each extension alternative, an analysis of
capital costs and operating costs and revenues is required. A written
report will be completed on the Cost/Revenue Analysis (Interim Report
III) and will be orally presented by the Consultant.
IV A written Final Report will be prepared incorporating Interim Reports
I , II , and III. This Final Report will be presented orally by the
Consultant.
