Project NeedWhy Do We Need Link US?

Project NeedWhy Do We Need Link US?

> LA Union Station (LAUS) is approaching operational capacity

> Ridership to grow from 110,000 to 200,000 passenger trips by 2040

> Current “stub-end” (dead-end) tracks limit efficiency and station capacity

> Critical transportation needs due to increase in forecasted ridership

Project BenefitsWhat Will Link US Provide?

Project BenefitsWhat Will Link US Provide?

MAKE LOS ANGELES UNION STATION A WORLD CLASS TRANSIT STATION

Residents

Tourists

INCREASED RAIL SERVICE CAPACITY

REDUCED TRAIN IDLING TIMES

Minimum Rail Operations Capacity> Minimum number of Regional Rail tracks> Accommodation of HSR

Architectural Screening> Accommodation of a new passenger concourse beneath the station

Environmental Screening> Consideration of historic properties> Conflicts with existing and proposed transportation facilities

Engineering Geometric Screening> Optimal track geometry - layout and grades> Vertical clearances over US-101 and roads> Platform lengths for Regional Rail and HSR

INITIAL SCREENING EVALUATION CRITERIA

Environmental Process (Alternatives Analysis)How Did We Get Here?

!

Utility ImpactsUtility Impacts

Constructability Considerations> Maintain operations at LAUS during construction

Structural Considerations> Building structure in least obstructive manner> Flexibility for future expansion

SECONDARY SCREENING EVALUATION CRITERIA(In Progress)

Environmental Process (Alternatives Analysis)How Did We Get Here?

Local Traffic Circulation> Parking> Consideration of other projects

Property Impacts

Additional Environmental Considerations> Environmental justice (including air quality and noise/vibration)
