1 Overview CMAA May 29, 2014 1

2 What is Metro Regional Rail >Manage more than 165 miles of R/W in L.A. County >Develop capital improvement projects and programs. >Coordinate with Metrolink, Amtrak, CHSRA, and freight. Los Angeles Union Station To Bakersfield High Desert Corridor San Bernardino Line Antelope Valley Line LOSSAN Corridor 2

3 Regional Rail in L.A. County >We are taking a stronger role in the region and the state regarding passenger rail. >Working with Metrolink to define needs in L.A. County. >Working with local municipalities to identify needs in L.A. County. >Developing a program. >Programming projects to advance regional rail. >Working with the LOSSAN JPA on strategic needs. 3

4 California High Speed Rail >2014 Business Plan places an emphasis on southern California >The Blended Service identifies an Initial Operating Segment to the San Fernando Valley in 2022. >This creates the need for substantial infrastructure development in the region to meet the HSR program. >Advanced timeline. >MOU provides for $1B of advance investment in southern California >Identified projects have independent utility. 4

5 Regional Rail Capital Program >Advancing projects address the following: >Grade Crossing and Corridor Safety on Metro owned right-of-way. >Capacity. >Community needs. >Advancing these projects: >Facilitates the high speed rail MOU. >Develops programs that are attractive for other sources of funding. >Benefits communities throughout L.A. County. >Benefits all passengers traveling within L.A. County. 5
