A summary of SacRT issues and my blog posts (even more):
- bicycle capacity on light rail: https://gettingaroundsac.wordpress.com/2013/01/21/bike-capacity-on-light-rail/
- bicycle storage at light rail stations and bus transit centers: https://gettingaroundsac.wordpress.com/2013/08/26/bike-storage-at-light-rail/
- level boarding for light rail: https://gettingaroundsac.wordpress.com/2013/01/17/level-boarding-with-low-floor-light-rail-cars/
- funding: https://gettingaroundsac.wordpress.com/2015/02/05/improving-sacrt/ (more information about other funding options)
- station amenities: https://gettingaroundsac.wordpress.com/2013/08/31/a-thirst-for-working-water-fountains/ (other amenities to address)
- light rail extensions: https://gettingaroundsac.wordpress.com/2015/01/05/sacramento-region-transit-projects-in-2015/ (more analysis needed) [added SacRT light rail extensions]
- bus rapid transit: https://gettingaroundsac.wordpress.com/2015/01/05/sacramento-region-transit-projects-in-2015/ (much more detail needed)
And issues on my list to blog about:
- failure of the streetcar
- more about light rail extensions
- much more about bus rapid transit
- funding (other options)
- system map and frequency
- equity
- serving density
- more about station amenities (signing, lighting, cleanliness, Watt elevator)
- delay in ConnectCard implementation
- need for a SacRT blog
- transparency in the ad-hoc System Improvement process
