3 I. Purpose To brief the Planning and Development Committee on the current status of the Metrobus Capital Improvement Program, an $830M near term investment to achieve the full potential of the public s Metrobus system. The 1473-bus fleet (Appendix A-1) is the 5 th largest in the nation. This comprehensive, multi-year program of projects ranges from new buses for replacement and growth, to customer information features, such as arrival information at bus stops and other Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) advancements, to new and upgraded facilities. 3
4 II. Background The $830M funding for the Bus Capital Improvement Program includes $536M of funding from the Metro Matters Funding Agreement and $294M in other approved bus capital funding. Onboard Systems $74 (9%) Bus Stop Improvements $27 (3%) Maintenance Facility Improvements $128 (15%) Fleet Improvements $601 (73%) The program does not accommodate $45.5M in desirable but currently unfunded projects 4
5 III. Bus Fleet Improvements Projects Underway FY05-11: $338M Bus Replacement with 250 CNG Buses: $108M Purchase 250 CNG buses. Delivery began August 11 th and will be completed March Bus Replacement: FY06-08: $117M In May 2004, the Board authorized the staff to initiate and award procurement for new buses to include 50 hybrid electric buses in FY06, up to 117 advanced technology diesel buses in FY07, and 50 additional hybrid electric buses (contingent upon evaluation of initial 50) for delivery in FY08. Annual Vehicle Overhaul: FY05-10: $108M Capital funding provides for the annual mid-life overhaul of approximately 100 buses. Clean Fleet Program: FY01-06: $5M Completes the Clean Fleet Program adopted by the Board in September The soot filters reduce particulate matter emissions by 90% and eliminate visible smoke. Install soot filters on buses equipped with Cummins and Detroit Diesel engines (336 buses); the Cummins soot filters are complete (74 buses) and the EPA had advised not replacing the Detroit Diesel soot filters (262 Buses) until final EPA resolution. EPA has now resolved the issue and work is scheduled to be completed in December
6 III. Bus Fleet Improvements Upcoming Projects FY06-11: $263M Bus Expansion Metro Matters 185 Bus Program: $95M Purchase up to 185 buses for expansion After completion of the evaluation based on experience with the first 50 Hybrid buses, staff will recommend to the Board a selection of vehicle technology for the first 50 Metro Matters expansion buses. Remaining 135 buses will not be purchased until the bus network evaluation is complete (currently estimated to be Spring 2006), as required by the Metro Matters Funding agreement. Bus Replacement FY09-11: $168M Purchase 241 replacement buses Fleet mix of vehicle technology is under review with staff recommendation to be made based on experience with Hybrid buses starting Spring
7 III. Bus Fleet Improvements Bus Fleet Average Age The Board has established an average fleet age goal of 7.5 years. With the replacement purchases discussed here the average age will decline from the current level of 10.1 years to 7 years by FY07 and will continue to remain at or under 7.5 years through FY Average Age (Yrs) Board Goal FY '05 FY '06 FY '07 FY '08 FY '09 FY '10 FY '11 Fleet Size 1473 Fleet Size 1498 Fleet Size 1523 Fleet Size 1553 Fleet Size 1593 Fleet Size 1658 Fleet Size 1658 Graph reflects planned annual delivery schedule of 185 Metro Matters Expansion Buses; Fleet Average Age will be higher if MM 185 buses are not procured and fleet expansion occurs without additional new buses; Fluctuation in Average Fleet Age due to projected delivery rate of new buses vs. retirement of older buses in fleet. 7
