Staff Report To: Sonoma County Transportation Authority

From: Seana L. S. Gause, Senior – Programming and Projects

Item: SB-1 Local Partnership Formulaic Program, 20/21 Call for Projects – Results

Date: September 9, 2019

Issue:

What are the results of the recent SCTA call for projects in the state Local Partnership Program Formulaic? Shall the Board approve the proposed projects?

Background:

On March 29, 2019, the SCTA issued a call for projects for the Road Repair and Accountability Act (SB1) Local Partnership Program Formulaic (LPPf). The call is attached to this staff report for reference. The fund source is available for transportation projects to those government entities that have successfully passed a tax measure or fee specifically for transportation. As the taxing authority of Measure M, Sonoma County’s ¼-cent transportation sales tax measure, SCTA has discretion over the LPPf fund source.

The SCTA received two projects in response to the call, one from Sonoma County Transit for a new electric bus purchase and installation of two in-route charging stations for two additional electric buses. The project would serve three different areas in the county: Cloverdale, Healdsburg and Sonoma/Sonoma Springs. The second project proposed is in Petaluma along the McDowell Boulevard Corridor and would provide signal coordination, reconstruction and striping of a section between E. Washington and Caulfield, construction of 38 curb ramps, sidewalk gap closures and widening of an existing sidewalk to create connectivity for a class I bike path. The first project (Sonoma County Transit) is proposed for the funding year in the call for projects (FY20/21). The second project (Petaluma McDowell Blvd Corridor) was submitted to indicate interest in the following funding year of FY21/22, but not to compete with the Sonoma County Transit proposal. Both applications are attached to this staff report for reference.

The California Transportation Commission is in the process of updating the guidelines for the LPPf, and as part of that process, it is anticipated that the funding cycles will change from the existing single year, to two-year cycles. This is expected to take effect in October when the final guidelines are adopted by the Commission, and prior to any submittal the SCTA would make for the program. The call that the SCTA issued prior to being made aware of this change was for a single year (FY20/21).

SCTA staff proposes that the Board program the two projects received for the anticipated two-year funding cycle (20/21 and 21/22). Each project would receive approximately $551K in programming. SCTA will issue a call for projects that covers the subsequent two years when the next cycle is available for programming, and for each subsequent cycle thereafter. SCTA took this proposal to the TAC, TTAC, CAC, and CBPAC. Each of the advisory committees unanimously recommends this approach to the Board.

Fiscal Impacts:

Two years of formulaic programming represents $1.1M for new projects.

Staff Recommendation:

Staff recommends that the Board approve the proposed two projects for programming in the Local Partnership Formulaic Program (LPPf) for fiscal years 20/21 and 21/22.

Request for SB-1 Local Partnership Program Funding

Project Title: Zero-Emission Bus & En-Route Charging Stations

With the goal of transitioning Sonoma County Transit’s heavy-duty fleet to zero-emission buses, this project requests $551,000 in SB-1 Local Partnership Program cycle 2020 funding to assist with the purchase of one 35-foot electric-powered bus and two en-route electric charging stations. The zero-emission bus will be deployed on Sonoma County Transit’s (SCT) local route operated within the City of Sonoma and the Sonoma-Springs area. The two electric charging stations will be installed at locations within the cities of Healdsburg and Cloverdale, respectively, to provide en-route electric charging for the electric-powered buses to be deployed on those local routes. Maps of the local routes in the cities of Sonoma, Healdsburg and Cloverdale are attached. The anticipated locations of the en-route charging stations to be installed in Healdsburg and Cloverdale are also included on the attached maps.

Costs & Requested Funding: The total cost for a 35-foot zero-emission bus is estimated to be $855,000. After a discount of $135,000 from the Hybrid and Zero-Emission Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) through the California Air Resources Board, the cost is reduced to $720,000. Sonoma County Transit is requesting $360,000 from the SB-1 Local Partnership Program to assist with this bus purchase. Local matching funding of $360,000 will be provided from the Low-Carbon Transit Operation Program (LCTOP) through Caltrans, the Transportation Fund for Clean Air through the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, and Transportation Development Act funding allocated to SCT through the Metropolitan Transportation Commission.

The total cost for installation of the two en-route electric charging stations in the cities of Healdsburg and Cloverdale is estimated to be $400,000. For this component of the project, SCT is requesting $191,000 from the SB-1 Local Partnership Program. The local match of $209,000 will be provided from LCTOP funding through Caltrans and local TDA funding allocated to SCT through the Metropolitan Transportation Commission. Please see the ‘Funding Info’ tab on the Project Programming Request form, which lists each funding source by project component and fiscal year.

Background & Project Need: The County of Sonoma is located approximately 50 miles north of San Francisco along the Highway 101 corridor and has a population of just over 500,000. A division of the Sonoma County Transportation and Public Works Department, Sonoma County Transit is publicly- financed and governed by the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors. SCT provides countywide fixed-route transit and paratransit services in the rural unincorporated areas of Sonoma County connecting all nine incorporated cities within Sonoma County. SCT also serves as the local transit provider for the cities of Cloverdale, Healdsburg, Windsor, Sebastopol, Rohnert Park, Cotati and Sonoma.

Due to major growth in terms of development and population over the past 39 years, Sonoma County Transit’s fixed-route services have expanded to a total of 29 local and intercity routes. SCT provided a total of 916,541 passenger trips during Fiscal Year 2018 and currently provides approximately 100,000 annual vehicle revenue hours, operating 7-days per week and 358 days per year. SCT also provides American’s with Disabilities (ADA) paratransit service within its countywide service area. A systemwide service map and summary of SCT’s routes and ADA paratransit services can be found on its website www.sctransit.com.

http://www.sctransit.com/

Sonoma County Transit's fixed-route fleet currently consists of fifty-one (51) active revenue vehicles. The fixed-route fleet includes thirty-eight (38) 40-foot compressed natural gas (CNG)-fueled buses, six (6) 30-foot CNG-fueled buses, one (1) 30-foot battery-electric bus, and six (6) small gasoline-fueled cut-away mini-buses. SCT’s paratransit fleet currently consists of twenty-nine (29) gasoline-fueled paratransit vehicles including a mix of cut-away vehicles, mini-vans and sedans. These fixed-route and paratransit revenue vehicles as well as thirteen (13) support vehicle are operated out of SCT’s administration and maintenance facility located in Santa Rosa.

All vehicle maintenance and fueling operations are also performed at Sonoma County Transit’s maintenance facility in Santa Rosa, which includes five maintenance bays and fueling/charging facilities for its compressed natural gas, gasoline and electric-powered fleets. Utilizing other secured local funding, it is anticipated that the construction of an expanded electric bus charging facility will be completed at SCT’s maintenance and fueling facility by the summer of 2020. The new electric bus charging stations will have the capacity to charge ten electric-powered buses at a time or twenty buses overnight.

This project will enable Sonoma County Transit to reach a significant milestone in transitioning its heavy-duty fixed-route bus fleet from CNG-fueled to zero-emission in accordance with the Innovative Clean Transit requirements set forth by the California Air Resources Board. Ultimately, this funding request will assist SCT toward replacing approximately 15 percent of its heavy-duty fixed-route fleet with zero-emission buses by 2021. The combination of SCT’s first electric-powered bus already in-service, four additional electric-powered buses either currently being manufactured by BYD Motors or with funding secured, and the additional zero-emission bus included in this funding request will enable SCT to operate all its local routes located in incorporated cities with zero-emission buses.

In anticipation of expanded use of zero-emission buses on its local routes, Sonoma County Transit has begun working with various local jurisdictions to establish en-route electric charging stations. Due to the current range limitations of electric-powered buses, en-route electric charging stations will be necessary on local routes that are operated relatively long distances from SCT’s electric charging facility in Santa Rosa. Funding has already been secured and designs are currently underway for en-route electric charging stations to be installed in the cities of Windsor and Sonoma. This project will provide additional funding for en-route electric charging stations that are needed on local routes operated within the cities of Cloverdale and Healdsburg.

Project Benefits: Over the past four years, Sonoma County Transit has introduced several innovative programs that have resulted in reaching new markets of transit users. Since 2015, all veterans and college students can ride anywhere on SCT free of charge. In July 2018, SCT introduced the ‘Fare-Free’ program, which now includes local routes operated in the cities of Sebastopol, Windsor, Healdsburg, Sonoma and the Lower Russian River communities of Guerneville and Monte Rio. Under this program, participating local jurisdictions have agreed to reimburse SCT the uncollected fares for all rides taken on their respective local routes. Since the Fare-Free program began, the total collective ridership on SCT’s local routes has increased by approximately 50%.

In conjunction with the Fare-Free program, Sonoma County Transit’s deployment of zero-emission buses will help further promote increased ridership on its local routes. SCT’s first electric-powered bus was placed into service in December 2018 on the local ‘Sebastopol Shuttle’ route operated in the City of Sebastopol. Two additional electric-powered buses are currently being manufactured by BYD Motors and will be ready for deployment in summer 2020 on SCT’s local routes operated within the cities of Rohnert Park and Cotati, and on the local Windsor Shuttle route. Funding has been secured for two additional electric-powered buses in Fiscal Year 2021, which will be deployed on the local Healdsburg

Shuttle and the local Cloverdale Shuttle routes. The zero-emission bus for which this funding is requested will be deployed on the local Sonoma Shuttle route operated within the City of Sonoma and the Sonoma-Springs area.

The deployment of zero-emission buses on all of Sonoma County Transit’s local routes will help to reduce the energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions that are associated with its current fixed-route bus fleet. Electric-powered buses consume less energy per mile driven than buses that use other common propulsion technologies, such as compressed natural gas (CNG)-fueled engines. The Altoona Bus Research and Testing Center reports that the overall average fuel economy of the electric-powered buses that SCT has purchased from BYD Motors is 27.71 MPG equivalent, which is seven times more efficient than conventional CNG-fueled buses. The Iron-Phosphate batteries that are equipped in BYD Motors’ electric-powered buses are considered ‘life’ batteries that come with a 12-year warranty and no required mid-life battery replacement. It is also anticipated that over the life of an electric-powered bus, maintenance costs will be lower than that of a comparable CNG-fueled bus.

Project Schedule: With the understanding that SB-1 Local Partnership Program funding for this project will not be available until Fiscal Year 2021, during the upcoming fiscal year Sonoma County Transit will be utilizing other state and local funding sources to purchase zero-emission buses and install en-route electric charging stations for local routes in the cities of Windsor and Sonoma. Sonoma County Transit already has one electric-powered bus in-service on the local Sebastopol Shuttle route operated in the City of Sebastopol. Two additional electric-powered buses are anticipated to be delivered during summer 2020 and another two buses by summer 2021. If this funding request is approved for Fiscal Year 2021, then a sixth zero-emission bus would be delivered to Sonoma County Transit by summer/fall 2021.

Funding requested for this project would also support Sonoma County Transit’s installation of two en-route electric charging stations for local routes operated in the cities of Healdsburg and Cloverdale, respectively. During the first half of Fiscal Year 2020, SCT will be working with local jurisdictions on securing locations, including right-of-way if necessary, for the charging stations. After the completing the environmental phase for the project for which Categorical Exemptions are anticipated, design work would then commence at the beginning of 2020. Installation of the charging stations would take place during spring/summer 2021. Utilizing other local funding, en-route electric charging stations are currently being designed for local routes in the cities of Windsor and Sonoma, respectively, with installation anticipated by summer 2020.

Cost/Benefit Analysis: Sonoma County Transit analyzed the expected benefits of this project utilizing

the Quantification Methodology (QM) model developed by the California Air Resources Board (CARB)

for the Low-Carbon Transit Operations Program that is administered by Caltrans. The QM model was

developed specifically for LCTOP projects, which are required to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions

and support transit agencies in their efforts to increase mode share. The use of CARB’s QM model was

determined to be more appropriate to quantify the benefits of this transit-focused project.

Based on the deployment of zero-emission electric-powered buses on three local routes providing service in the cities of Sonoma, Healdsburg and Cloverdale over 12 years, the QM model estimates a reduction of 16,726 gallons of fossil fuels and an energy and fuel cost savings of $459,636. Ridership on the three local routes is estimated to increase by 5,520 passenger trips, which will result in an estimated reduction of 22,991 vehicle miles traveled (VMT) according to the model. The QM model also estimates that the total budget for this project would support 7.1 full-time equivalent jobs. The full results of CARB’s model for this project are attached.

Regional Planning Goals: Sonoma County Transit’s purchase of zero-emission buses and supporting electric charging infrastructure is consistent with the transportation, land-use and housing goals and strategies included in the Metropolitan Transportation Commission’s (MTC) Plan Bay Area 2040. MTC’s Plan Bay Area is the state-mandated long-range transportation, land-use and housing plan for the San Francisco Bay Area. One of the goals in Plan Bay Area is to modernize the region’s transportation system, which includes funding bus replacement projects. The purchase of zero-emission buses and supporting infrastructure als0 supports the goal in Plan Bay Area to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, this project will help advance equity in the region by promoting access to public transportation for low-income and minority populations through SCT’s ‘Fare Free’ local transit services provided with zero-emission buses.

Greenhouse Gas Impacts: Sonoma County Transit analyzed the expected greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions of this project utilizing the Quantification Methodology (QM) model developed by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for the Low-Carbon Transit Operations Program that is administered by Caltrans. The QM model was developed specifically for LCTOP projects, which are required to reduce GHG emissions and support transit agencies in their efforts to increase mode share. The use of CARB’s QM model was determined to be more appropriate to quantify the GHG emission reductions of this transit-focused project.

Based on the deployment of zero-emission electric-powered buses on three local routes providing service in the cities of Sonoma, Healdsburg and Cloverdale over 12 years, the QM model estimates total GHG emission reductions of 1,931 metric tons of carbon dioxide (MTCO2). The model also estimates this project would result in 11 pounds of PM2.5 emission reductions, 48 pounds of ROG emission reductions and 2,496 pounds of NOx emission reductions. In addition, the model estimates 3,504 MTCO2 in GHG emission reductions per total SB1 Local Partnership Program funding to be provided for this project. The full results of CARB’s model for this project are attached.

Year F (YrF) - Final year that the service is funded or the final year of the capital improvements useful life. 2033

The end of the useful life of the bus is anticipated to be in late FY 2033.

Project Yr1 Ridership - Estimated annual ridership contributed by the new service or capital improvement in Yr1. 460

Total combine ridership on local routes 32, 67 and 68 of approximately 46,000 in FY 17-18 is anticipated to increase an estimated 1% due to novelty of the new electric-powered buses.

On the local route operated in the City of Sonoma and the Sonoma - Springs area, Sonoma County Transit deploys buses that are fueled by compressed natural gas (CNG). This project will replace one CNG-fueled bus with one zero-emission electric-powered bus. The two en-route electric charging stations to be installed with this project will also allow for the replacement of CNG-buses with zero emission electric-powered buses on local routes providing service with the cities of Healdsburg and Cloverdale. The deployment of the zero-emission electric-powered buses will help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Greenhouse Gas Reductions - Please provide quantitative information requested below and explanation/support for the data provided.

Value ExplanationYear 1 (Yr1) - First year of service, or year that capital improvements will be completed.

2021

The zero-emission electric-powered bus is expected to be deployed into service by late 2021.

Project GHG BenefitsGreenhouse Gas Reductions - Describe qualitatively how this project will reduce greenhouse gas emissions. For example, expanded/enhanced transit service will improve headways thus making transit a more convenient option of transportation thus increasing ridership, reducing Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and reducing GHG.

is at McDowell Boulevard at Corona Road and SMART’s proposed multi use path will have aconnection to McDowell at Southpoint Blvd. McDowell Boulevard has also become the home ofLagunitas Brewing, Henhouse Brewing and SonomaCoast Spirits. As the north east side of Petaluma develops and becomes more of a destination, thevehicles, transit, pedestrian and bicycle trips grow.

Currently McDowell Boulevard is a 40 mph arterial and there has been limited work along thecorridor to improve bicycle and pedestrian connectivity and safety. The roadway has fallen beyondrepair, the City is unable to maintain the existing striping for bike lanes and travel lanes as paintwill only last a year. There are two existing uncontrolled crosswalks along corridor and oneadditional being proposed to connect the breweries along either side of the corridor. The existinguncontrolled crosswalks lack safety treatments that are suitable for the speed and number of travellanes. The bike facilities vary from class I bike path to class II bike lane along the corridor; there iscurrently no consistency or adequate signage along the route. Between Corona Road and OldRedwood Highway some of the sidewalks have been constructed with new developments but thesidewalk gaps prevent users from using the full corridor.

Project Scope: The project includes signal coordination along McDowell Boulevard North fromEast Washington St to Caulfield Lane which includes 13 traffic signals, reconstructing andstriping from Old Redwood Highway to Sunrise Parkway, construction of 38 new curb ramps,sidewalk gap closures from Old Redwood Highway to Corona Road, as well as at the railroadcrossing and widening of an existing sidewalk to create connectivity for class I bike path.

The signal coordination would include developing a traffic signal timing plan for the morning,midday and afternoon peak periods for McDowell Boulevard to reduce traffic congestion andtraffic delays which in turns will reduce the greenhouse gas emissions. With the newdevelopments, breweries, distilleries, proposed SMART station and multi use path will benefitfrom new sidewalks and more well defined bike lanes to encourage more non-motorized travel.

Current Status: Project is in the preliminary scoping phase. Expected Completion Fall 2022

Cost Estimate: See Attachment B- Cost Estimate

Caltrans Life-Cycle Benefit-Cost Analysis Model 6.0: See Attachment C- LCBC Analysis. Bothan active transportation analysis and corridor analysis was completed for this project to properlyportray the benefits and costs associated with each aspect of the project.

Transportation, Land use and Housing Element: McDowell Complete Street project is consistentwith the key aspects of the Sustainable Communities Strategies (SCS) by constructing biking andwalking infrastructure to improve active transportation options. The project improves theconnectivity of bicycle and pedestrians infrastructure, improves access to local and regional busroutes, regional connectivity with SMART train and connectivity to the west side of Petaluma via


future SMART multi use pathway and the City’s existing Lynch Creek Trail. The improvement ofthe bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure. The project will also include signal coordination of 13intersection to achieve speeds that are suitable to the corridor and improve efficiencies tominimize emissions and energy consumption and make optimal use of the street capacity.

Greenhouse Gas Impacts: The SB-1 Emission Calculator and the Arterial Management Projectswork sheet typically used for TFCA projects were utilized to analyze the greenhouse house gasreduction of the project. Both worksheets analyzed the greenhouse gas reduction for the signalcoordination of 13 intersections / 3.71 miles along McDowell Boulevard. Greenhouse gasreduction was quantified for pedestrian and bicycle improvement as part of the cost benefitanalysis of active transportation.

Additional InformationProject Purpose: McDowell Boulevard North is one of the main arterials in town connecting north and southwith an average daily traffic of approximately 11,000 vehicles per day. Petaluma Transit, Sonoma CountyTransit, and Golden Gate Transit utilize the 23 transit stops along this route. Many new developments alongthe corridor are in construction or pending development application such as Brody Ranch, Deer Creek andCorona Station Developments. SMART’s proposed station is at McDowell Boulevard at Corona Road andSMART’s proposed multi use path will have a connection to McDowell at Southpoint Blvd. McDowellBoulevard has also become the home of Lagunitas Brewing, Henhouse Brewing and SonomaCoast Spirits. As the north east side of Petaluma develops and becomes more of a destination, the vehicles,transit, pedestrian and bicycle trips grow.

Currently McDowell Boulevard is a 40 mph arterial and there has been limited work along the corridor toimprove bicycle and pedestrian connectivity and safety. The roadway has fallen beyond repair, the City isunable to maintain the existing striping for bike lanes and travel lanes as paint will only last a year. There aretwo existing uncontrolled crosswalks along corridor and one additional being proposed to connect thebreweries along either side of the corridor. The existing uncontrolled crosswalks lack safety treatments thatare suitable for the speed and number of travel lanes. The bike facilities vary from class I bike path to class IIbike lane along the corridor; there is currently no consistency or adequate signage along the route. BetweenCorona Road and Old Redwood Highway some of the sidewalks have been constructed with newdevelopments but the sidewalk gaps prevent users from using the full corridor.

Project Scope: The project includes signal coordination along McDowell Boulevard North from EastWashington St to Caulfield Lane which includes 13 traffic signals, reconstructing and striping from OldRedwood Highway to Sunrise Parkway, construction of 38 new curb ramps, sidewalk gap closures from OldRedwood Highway to Corona Road, as well as at the railroad crossing and widening of an existing sidewalk tocreate connectivity for class I bike path.

The signal coordination would include developing a traffic signal timing plan for the morning, midday andafternoon peak periods for McDowell Boulevard to reduce traffic congestion and traffic delays which in turnswill reduce the greenhouse gas emissions. With the new developments, breweries, distilleries, proposedSMART station and multi use path will benefit from new sidewalks and more well defined bike lanes toencourage more non-motorized travel
