The plan, which provided a broad overview of proposed intercity, interregional and general . public dial -a -ride service, was made available for public review at all library branches in San Joaquin County and at the SMART facility. A public input process followed release of the Initial Service Plan. The process included a series of eleven public hearings and permitted comment by mail, phone or fax. Specific origin and destination information was sought, along with input regarding when service was needed. Over 300 comments regarding service needs were received. Simultaneously, SMART staff gathered travel demand, employment and population data to assist in service design. This Proposed Operations Plan has incorporated all available data to (lesion a system of proposed services that will best meet the needs of the citizens of San Joaquin County, within available resources. This plan also contains a proposed fare structure for the new services. Tile primary objective in the development of these proposed services was to design a system that will be user-friendly and will blend effectively with existing transit service within San Joaquin County. The proposed system will greatly expand access via transit both within San Joaquin County and throughout the region. Public comments on this Proposed Operations Plan will be accepted through June 3. 1994. Following consideration of all public input, a Final Operations Plan will be presented to the SNIAR"f Board for consideration. Page 3 Ji +/13/94, 1909 SMART -Proposed Operations Plan May 1994 SECTION II: PROPOSED INTERCITY SERVICES A. Tracy/Lathrop Corridor General Description The City of Tracy is located approximately thirty miles southwest of Stockton. The city's population is approximately 40,100 residents in a 12 square mile area. The population is distributed throughout the city limits. There are five major commercial centers and three primary civic centers for recreation. The major commercial centers are as follows: the Downtown area, Safeway Shopping Center, Savemart/K Mart Area on Tracy Boulevard, North industrial Area, and the Southwest Industrial Area. The three major civic centers are City Hall area, the library, and Dr. Powers Park. Tracy is a fast growing community and offers affordable housing to employees who work in the Bay Area. Approximately 54 percent of Tracy residents commute into the Bay Area to work. 'file City of Lathrop is located approximately tifte;-n miles south of Stockton. Since the city's incorporation in 1990, its population has grown to .ipproxinlately 7,453 residents in a 6.5 square mile area. As a new city, it is anticipated that Lathrop will experience significant growth during the next ten years Presently, population is concentrated between I.athrop Road and Louise Avenue. The major commercial area of the city is located along Louise Avenue. Nlajor Employers The City of Tracy has several major employers within the city limits. Among these major employers are Orchard Supply Hardware Distribution Center, D.R. Good, Orthopedic Technology, Leprino Foods, Heinz, Tracy Depot, dolly Sugar, Inland Shipping, and Yellow Freight. These employers are mostly located on MacArthur Drive, the southwest side: of the city, and the most northern areas of the city. I*he physical localjons of thesis major employers impacts the ability to serve each facility directly. However, coordination with the local transit service could enable shuttle service to employment sites. Page 4 dt: 511 ?l94, 1909 SNIART-Proposed Operations Plan May 1994 The City of Lathrop has three major employers, Simplot Corporation, Nestle Corporation, and Libby Owens Ford Glass Corporation. As the city develops, additional employers are anticipated. Please refer to Appendix C for the list of the major employers in Tracy and Lathrop. Proposed Service The current travel patterns justify two service designs that accommodate the various transportation needs. The first is an express service that would target committers from the Citv of Stockton to work at Sharpe Depot in Lathrop and the Tracy Depot in Tracy. The second service design is an intercity service which would target customers who wish to travel between Tracy/Lathrop and Stockton and other cities in San Joaquin County for work, school, medical appointments znd county services. For those riders who qualify under the District's Americans with Disabilities Act certification criteria, the District will offer route deviation to riders with an origin or destination within 3/4 of a mile from the route. A reservation for this service must be made at least one day prior to their trip. The proposed routes are described below: Sharpe Depot Express/Tracy Depot Express. These commuter express routes are designed to collect passengers in Stockton from park and ride lots and transport them then directly to the Sharpe Depot and the Tracy Depot. These two routes will operate two trips to each facility in the morning and afternoon on weekdays only with no holiday service or weekend service. These routes will originate at the I-5/Hammer Lane park and ride lot and will serve other park-and-ride lots along 1-5. The Sharpe Depot will utilize I-5 and Roth Road for its route. The Tracy Depot will utilize 1-5, Eleventh Street and Chrisman Road for its route. Both routes will directly serve the Administration Building's and other main warehouses within the security perin-ieters of the facilities. Because this service will operate within the security perimeters, it will be necessary to restrict these express routes to the employees of Sharpe Depot and the Tracy Depot. Lathrop/Tracy Intercity Route. This intercity service is designed to provide service between Stockton, Lathrop, and Tracy. As proposed, the Lathrop/'Tracy intercity service Page 5 Li, '*/12/94. 1909 SMART -Proposed Operations Plan May 1994 would be available from 5:55 a.m. to 7:05 p.m. on weekdays only with no holiday service or weekend service. Several considerations were incorporated in the design of this service. The first consideration was to operate service that would remain competitive with the automobile. The second consideration was to serve employers that operate non-traditional work shifts and to serve major points of interest. This route provides direct access to employment and educational opportunities in Stockton, as well as providing access to employment sites, libraries, hospitals and shopping in :'racy and Lathrop. In Tracy, this route will utilize MacArthur Drive, Eleventh Street. Tenth Street, Central Avenue, Eaton Avenue, Tracy Boulevard, Grant Line Road, Parker Avenue, and Lowell Avenue. The route will utilize I-205 and I-5 to travel between Tracy and Lathrop, will travel through Lathrop on Louise Avenue, Fifth Street and Lathrop Road, then continue to downtown Stockton via I-5. In addition, this route will be designed to "interline" with the Lodi -East intercity route, providing direct service from Tracy and Lathrop to Lodi, via Stockton. This service will benefit Tracy residents who wish to travel to Lathrop andf'or Stockton, as well as those individual from Lathrop who wish to travel to Stockton or Tracy. SMART will work with the cities of Tracy and Lathrop to coordinate intercity services with local transit services to expand trip options. Appendix A of this document illustrates the proposed schedules and route maps for these services. Appendix B provides the projected operating statistics for these routes. B. Lodi/Stockton Corridor General Description The City of Lodi is located approximately six miles north of Stockton. The City's population is approximately 52,000 residents in a 11.8 square mile area.
