Long Beach Transit STAR Initiative Executive Summary

WHAT IS THE STAR INITIATVE?

The Long Beach Transit (LBT) STAR Initiative stands for Systemwide Transit Analysis and Reassessment. This 18- month, comprehensive analysis of Long Beach Transit’s bus service is designed to maximize productivity and effectiveness and increase ridership through improvements across all aspects of operations.

Why Change?The City of Long Beach and surrounding areas are growing, and the transportation needs of residents

are changing. The STAR Initiative looked at ways to respond to the needs of a rapidly evolving

customer market.

As we continue to grow, our transit system should be a first class choice for mobility. LBT evaluated its

entire transit operation to accommodate expected growth through ensuring mobility and improving the

overall quality of life for all current and future residents of Long Beach and surrounding areas.

The result? Changes to almost every route in the system in the next 10 years that will help make LBT more valuable to residents, employees and visitors.

GOALS AND STRATEGIES

Goal One: Retain, Reclaim and Recruit customers while maintaining and improving choices for those without other options.

• Strategy 1.1 . Focus on productivity when investing in

additional service.

• Strategy 1.2. Pursue capital investments that will support

speed and reliability, such as Rapid service and dedicated

lanes.

• Strategy 1.3. Simplify service by operating fewer route

variations that serve easy-to-understand destinations.

• Strategy 1.4. Operate buses more often and with longer

hours in order to expand the types of trips that customers

can make on LBT.

• Strategy 1.5. Improve customer amenities at bus stops

to enhance customer experience and enhance LBT’s

perception among potential customers.

• Strategy 1.6. Reduce duplication of service in order

to provide high quality service in the most cost-effective

manner.

Goal Two: Improve integration of local and regional transit service.

• Strategy 2.1. Identify gaps at the edge of the service area

that LBT could fill through coordination with neighboring

agencies or extensions of LBT routes.

• Strategy 2.2. Minimize the extent to which fare policy

negatively impacts trips that require transfers between

operators in the region.

Goal Three: Transition LBT from being a transit operator toward being a mobility provider.

• Strategy 3.1. Enhance end-to-end user experience

through customer information, fare payment options,

schedule reliability and physical amenities.

• Strategy 3.2. Look at vehicle options other than a 40-foot

bus, particularly in lower-density areas such as East Long

Beach. This could include using smaller vehicles and ride-

hail technology.

Long Beach Transit’s new fleet of battery-electric buses are quieter and environmentally friendly.

Long Beach COA Executive Summary

RIDERSHIPOn a typical weekday, LBT carries 83,000 average daily riders. While the amount of service

supplied in the last four years has increased by approximately 7 percent, ridership has not

increased correspondingly.

0N-TIME PERFORMANCESystemwide, Long Beach Transit services have an average on-time performance of 87

percent. In general, shorter routes have the best on-time performance, while the worst-

performing routes are longer, high ridership routes such as Routes 192, 91 and 61. Running

late is much more common for LBT routes than running early across the system.

WHAT ARE THE CHALLENGES? WHAT’S WORKING?

High ridership on multiple corridors near downtown Long Beach. Atlantic Avenue, 7th Street, Anaheim Street and Pacific Coast Highway all have great ridership.

Service coverage is good, with most parts of Long Beach, Signal Hill and Lakewood being less than ¼ mile away from an existing bus route. However, wait times for service in outlying areas is typically long.

Ridership has been declining. Improving service to existing high ridership destinations, such as California State University, Long Beach (CSULB), or creating better connections to regional service can help reverse this trend.

Almost all routes serve downtown Long Beach. which leads to duplicative service in some of the most congested parts of the service area.

LBT can be confusing. especially for first time riders. Simplified routes, more frequent service and less route variants would make LBT easier to navigate.

TRAVEL DEMAND ANALYSIS

The goal of the Travel Demand Analysis is to quantify market

demand. Multiple different methods were utilized to assess demand

for services. CSULB, downtown Long Beach and Lakewood Center

Mall are some of the highest demand areas. Significant regional

travel occurs between the Long Beach Transit service area and the

downtown and westside areas of Los Angeles.

mobility and the attractiveness of service. It builds

upon the Short-Term Roadmap.

The Mid-Term Roadmap focuses on simplification of

the route network and investments in the highest-

ridership corridors throughout the city. Specific

improvements include:

• Four new corridors with service every 15

minutes, seven days a week including:

» Carson Street

» Willow Street

» Broadway, Ximeno Avenue, Lakewood

Boulevard and Clark Avenue

» Bellflower Boulevard between CSULB

and Lakewood Center Mall

• Route consolidation on major corridors to

improve bus spacing and make service

easier to understand

• All routes would operate at least every 30

minutes during the day

• Service would operate earlier and later in

the day

• Simplification of route numbers and patterns

• Future emerging mobility zones, where

on-demand service using smaller vehicles

would be provided to serve the needs of

customers

• New service connecting Lakewood Center

Mall and the City of Norwalk

• More direct service between the Long

Beach Airport, Metro Blue Line and

downtown Long Beach

• Supporting capital improvements

LONG-TERM ROADMAP RECOMMENDATIONSThe Long-Term Roadmap illustrates the

improvements necessary to meet mobility needs that

were identified through the STAR Initiative throughout

the existing service area and beyond. Costs were

not a consideration in developing the Long-Term

Roadmap. Highlights include:

• One new corridor with service every 15

minutes, seven days a week between

Lakewood Center Mall and the City of

Norwalk

» Carson Street

» Willow Street

» Broadway, Ximeno Avenue,

Lakewood Boulevard and Clark

Avenue

» Bellflower Boulevard between

CSULB and Lakewood Center Mall

• Service would operate earlier and later

in the day

• Limited-stop service connecting

downtown Long Beach with Long

Beach Airport, CSULB, LBCC

campuses and Lakewood Center Mall

• Regional connections to the downtown

and westside areas of Los Angeles and

Orange County

• Better connections to the City of

Downey

• Additional future emerging mobility

zones, where on-demand service using

smaller vehicles would be provided to

serve the needs of customers

• Supporting capital improvements

NEXT STEPS

Long Beach Transit will work to determine the specific phasing of the Short-, Mid- and Long-Term Roadmaps. Route changes, policy changes and implementation order will all require additional public input before they are finalized.
