BART releases Short Range Transit Plan, Capital Improvement Program

BART has released the District's Final Fiscal Year 2008 Short Range Transit Plan and Capital Improvement Program (SRTP/CIP), which the BART Board adopted on September 27, 2007.

The Federal Transit Administration and the Metropolitan Transportation Commission require BART to produce the plan, which is a management and financial planning tool that gives an analysis of BART's funding needs, priorities and funding strategies for its operations through Fiscal Year 2017 and its capital programs through Fiscal Year 2032. The document also lays out the District's approach to capital investment and funding strategies.

Highlights of the Final FY08 SRTP/CIP include:

  • An overview of the BART organization, facilities and fare structure
  • Information on current and future rail ridership, service and operating performance
  • Ten-year operating financial forecasts
  • 25-year capital funding and program needs
  • Discussion of expansive "Second Generation" Renovation Program
  • Discussion of system reinvestment programs beginning in FY08
  • Updates on station planning, access and transit-oriented development projects
