Existing Conditions get worst ROADWAY CONDITIONS IN 2030 Daily delay goes from 2.2 to up to 5.4 million hours lost in congestion Unreliability of the roadway system for travel Environmental impacts of congestion Quality of life issues related to commute
Continued growth in aviation demand REGION S AVIATION NEEDS IN 2030 Regional demand will grow from 80 to 170 MAP Greatest growth in Inland Empire Highest travel markets continue to be L.A. and O.C. The gap between available capacity and travel market grows O&D Passenger Demand by County, 2030 Annual Passenger Trips per Capita, 2030 PMD ONT LAX 0-3 4-10 11 +
Significant growth in demand for the region GOODS MOVEMENT IN 2030 Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles handle 43% of containers entering U.S. Moving from 13M+ TEU today to over 44M TEU by 2030 Existing system cannot handle the projected volume Environmental challenges and impacts are considerable Projected Port Container growth, 2030 Needed Additions to Goods Movement System

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA MAGLEV DEPLOYMENT PROGRAM Goals of the System High-Speed Airport Connector Regional Commuter System Growth Visioning/Management Goods Movement Capabilities Ability to Connect the Region Together Initial Operating Segment (IOS) Beginning of Larger Regional System Test of the Concept
Shanghai, China 19 miles MAGLEV PROJECTS AROUND THE WORLD Operating since 2003 Munich, Germany 23 miles, two stations Construction in 2007
OVERVIEW OF THE IOS INITIAL OPERATING SEGMENT ALIGNMENT 54.7 miles (87.5 km) in length Four Passenger Stations spaced about 18 miles apart 32 minutes travel time (end to end with station stops) Top Speed 249 mph (400 kph) Average Speed 103.4 mph (166.4 kph)
OVERVIEW OF THE IOS OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS Frequency: 10 min. peak/20 minutes off-peak 18 Hours of Operation: (5:30 AM 11:30 PM) 8 Car Trains (Expansion Capability to 10 Car Trains) Route Capacity: 10,600/hr, 138,200/day, 50.5m/year Power Consumption 5.03 MWh
OVERVIEW OF THE IOS IOS PROJECT BALANCING ACT Built over existing public rights-of-way Maximize speed, minimize environmental impacts/costs Fully elevated/grade separated alignment Evolution of our travel corridors to a more efficient mode
TYPE 1 - SECTION AND LAYOUT 100 maximum span length 6.5 guideway depth Prefabricated guideway beam Minimum 6 diameter column Easiest to construct Most economical section Use wherever possible
TYPE 2 - SECTION AND LAYOUT Used when column cannot be placed under guideway centerline Maximum offset = 15 100 maximum span length 6.5 deep prefabricated guideway beam
TYPE 3 - SECTION AND LAYOUT Used when column cannot be placed under guideway centerline Guideway span lengths below 100 Maximum bent span = 160 Variable bent depth and column diameter Standard guideway beam sitting on straddle bent
TYPE 4 - SECTION AND LAYOUT Guideway span lengths between 100-240 Variable structure depth and column diameter Pedestal supported 1-4 deep guideway beam sitting on CIP bridge deck
TYPE 5 - SECTION AND LAYOUT Used when column cannot be placed under guideway centerline Guideway span lengths between 100-240 Maximum bent span = 160 Variable bent depth Pedestal supported 1-4 deep guideway beam sitting on bridge deck Bridge structure is integrated into straddle bent
TUNNEL - SECTION AND LAYOUT Required along alternative SR- 60 alignment east of SR-57 Single bore, 41 wide by 27 high Minimum depth of cover determined by soil type Tunnel length approx. 3,300 Maximum cover is approx. 190
SOIL NAIL RETAINING WALL SECTION AND LAYOUT Retained cut section for use against hillside Used along I-10 adjacent to Forest Lawn Memorial Park Pedestal supported 1-4 deep guideway beam sitting on concrete slab Lower cost and easier to construct than tunnel Utilizes soil nail wall
