4.1 Greening and Ridership Strategies

The recommendations within this Opportunities Analysis Report provide a cohesive set of strategies that can reduce environmental impacts at existing and future station areas and park and ride lots while also supporting other community objectives such as developing vibrant neighborhoods, fostering economic growth, and enhancing social equity. The strategies discussed here cover five of the six categories analyzed in this report, and in many cases, implementing these strategies will positively affect multiple categories. The sixth category, CalEnviroScreen, is an environmental health screening tool developed to help map California communities that may be disadvantaged pursuant to Senate Bill 535 (Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment 2014). As such, many of the factors used to arrive at the results of CalEnviroScreen are related to socioeconomics and would not be directly affected by greening and ridership strategies. However, many of the listed strategies would indirectly and positively affect the CalEnviroScreen results, such as the Air Quality, Urban Forestry, and Connectivity strategies.

To maximize its effectiveness, greening and ridership strategies should be selected based on location-specific needs and the ability of that strategy to take advantage of local conditions. Greening and ridership strategies should not be selected just because they are tried and true or because they are new and trendy.

One key attribute that must be considered prior to selecting greening strategies is whether the station area is located above or below ground. For example, wind turbine installations in subway tunnels to slow approaching trains and generate electricity can only be installed in underground stations. Other strategies such as directing natural light, installing high-efficiency LEDs, and designing passive temperature control using natural ventilation structures such as windcatchers provide greater benefits at underground stations because these areas typically utilize more electricity for lighting and climate control than aboveground stations. Riders exiting from underground stations require greater navigational guidance than riders exiting aboveground stations because there are fewer visual cues and it is easier to lose the sense of direction when traveling underground; therefore, underground stations require additional navigational signage to provide adequate orientation upon exiting.

In addition to utilizing station areas and park and ride lots, other Metro-owned parcels can be considered for greening opportunities, such as power substation areas. These areas are typically heat islands, and the reliability of power transformers are often affected by high temperatures. Therefore, cooling these areas with shading or plants would potentially increase resiliency against climate change. Installation of solar roofs over these substations may serve to provide shading and local energy generation in these areas. Maintenance areas should also be considered for greening opportunities. For example, the new Gold Line Maintenance Campus in Monrovia is designed and built to LEED Gold standards and includes features such as drought-tolerant plants, smart irrigation control, a storm water collection and filtration system, a solar panel array, directed natural lighting and LEDs, recycled water, high-efficiency fixtures, recycled materials, and products with low volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Examples of how greening strategies may be implemented are provided in Section 5.0, Case Studies.

Water Resources

Storm water harvesting: Station areas and park and ride lots should be intelligently designed to minimize contaminated runoff and maximize storm water capture. Due to climate change and the statewide drought, storm water management is key to the future of Southern California’s water supply. Capturing storm water also reduces polluted runoff to nearby water bodies, thereby improving water quality. The harvested water can be used for irrigation or bus and train washing, or be allowed to percolate into the ground to recharge the aquifer.

• Install rain barrels to store storm water for irrigation.

Pervious Surface

Drip Irrigation

Native Plants

• Use drip irrigation rather than sprinklers to reduce evaporative losses and wind-blown losses.

• Install a smart irrigation controller that can adjust watering based on weather, amount of shade, and plant type.

• Modify irrigation schedules to begin in the early morning to reduce evaporation and allow any moisture on the leaves to dry before nightfall, thereby reducing the potential for plant diseases.

Pervious surface: Pervious surfaces allow percolation or infiltration of storm water through the surface into the soil below, where the water is naturally filtered and pollutants are removed. In contrast, impervious surfaces such as most sidewalks and parking lots result in runoff and force storm water and associated surface pollutants directly into nearby storm drains and waterbodies. Pervious surfaces can capture storm water and allow it to seep into the ground, recharging groundwater and reducing polluted storm water runoff.

• Create bioswales, rain gardens, storm water planters, or storm water tree pits/trenches to collect storm water and allow for infiltration.

• Minimize impervious surfaces by using pervious concrete, decomposed granite, or permeable pavers.

• Design roofs, canopies, and other infrastructure to maximize water capture.

• Redirect water from downspouts from hard pavements to pervious surfaces.

Recycled water and gray water: Recycled water is former wastewater (sewage) that is treated to remove solids and impurities, and can be used for irrigation or groundwater recharge. Gray water is wastewater that has been used in sinks, baths, showers, or washing machines, but does not contain sewage and is not treated at the same levels as recycled water.

• Use recycled water or gray water for irrigation; flushing; and bus, train, or platform washing.

Water conservation: Water is a limited resource. The current multiyear drought is one of the worst in California’s history and is reducing the water reserve levels (California Department of Water Resources 2014). Conservation is key to ensuring that there will be sufficient water supplies in the future. In 2013, Metro installed a real-time water controller system at the El Monte Busway Terminal, which has increased water use efficiency through automatic leak detection and smart irrigation control.

• Install low-flow toilets.

• Plant native trees, shrubs, and other drought-tolerant plants.

Bioswales

pilot program at the Red Line. However, turbines should only be deployed while a train is approaching so that the increased drag can assist with slowing down the train. Deployment of turbines as a train is accelerating out of a station or in the middle of a tunnel would increase drag on the train and therefore energy usage, negating any potential benefits from the wind turbines. Alternatively, regenerative braking can be used to similar effect if the braking energy is stored rather than dissipated as heat.

• Utilize regenerative braking on trains and store generated electricity locally at the stations to remove the need for installing storage batteries/capacitors onboard, thereby reducing the moving mass and energy required to accelerate the train and preventing the loss of energy that would have otherwise been dissipated as heat.

• Consider alternative renewable energy generation technologies. For example, piezoelectric elements can be embedded at station platforms and walkways to harvest energy from the footsteps of passengers. The mechanical stress on the floor from a passenger’s step would generate a current through the material, which could be captured and stored at the station. Unlike embedding piezoelectric elements under the train rails, this method would not rob any energy from the train.

• Store any generated renewable energy locally for use at the station and avoid power usage spikes during peak demand period. This stored electricity can provide power for electric

• Install French drains to redirect surface water, perhaps to a rain garden or dry well for collection and infiltration.

• Install prefabricated underground sand filters to collect and treat flows from impervious areas such as parking lots.

Utilization

Energy: Energy generation and consumption is directly related to multiple environmental impacts, including air quality, greenhouse gas emissions, and water resources. California generates 70% of the electricity it uses, and natural gas–fired power plants are the largest source (45%) of the electricity generated in California (California Energy Commission 2015). The burning of natural gas produces an average of 1,135 pounds of carbon dioxide, 1.7 pounds of nitrogen oxides, and 0.1 pound of sulfur dioxide per megawatt-hour of electricity generated, and can also produce methane, a greenhouse gas, when the natural gas is not burned completely (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 2013). In addition, natural gas power plants require water for cooling. The use of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind can reduce the impact of energy consumption at station areas.

• Install shade structures with solar panels to provide shelter from sun and rain and produce energy.

• Install wind turbines in underground train tunnels to capture winds generated by decelerating trains, similar to the multi-blade mass airflow collection equipment (MACE)

such as connectivity and energy conservation, as well as provide practical advantages for riders and surrounding communities.

• Provide secure bike storage areas with racks/lockers to enhance multimodal transit and connectivity.

• Install electric plug-in charging stations to incentivize zero-emission travel.

• Use recycled and/or local materials to reduce the embodied energy required to manufacture and transport new products.

• Promote separation and recycling of waste, and provide recycling bins to minimize waste and impacts to landfills.

• Design new or retrofit existing stations using LEED principles.

• Provide shade structure or shelter to protect riders from the sun and rain.

• Install additional seating to accommodate riders who may not be able to stand for long periods.

plug-in charging stations, station lights, escalators, and electronic status displays, as well as additional power to trains accelerating away from a station.

• Integrate and manage natural lighting and use smart controls with ambient light sensors so that, for example, outdoor lighting would not be turned on in the middle of a sunny day.

• Install light-emitting diode (LED) lighting and other energy-saving measures such as escalator motion sensors to conserve energy usage.

• Use passive temperature control such as awnings, window treatments, insulation, natural ventilation, building orientation, windcatchers, and landscaping to minimize energy consumption for building climate control.

• Design raised station stops at new stations so that tracks slope upward as a train approaches and downward as a train leaves in order to use gravity to reduce the energy that trains use to brake and acceleration as they approach and leave a station, respectively.

Amenities: Station area and park and ride amenities can enhance user comfort, convenience, and pleasure, thereby instilling a sense of confidence in the user and potentially increasing ridership levels. These amenities can also serve to enhance other aspects of the station,

of underground stations to orient riders. Underground stations with multiple exits should label exits with cardinal directions to assist riders with navigation as they leave the station. Metro is already in the process of implementing a 6-year, $1.2 billion overhaul of the Blue Line, which will include station improvements and additional signage at pedestrian crossings. In addition, the Environmental Graphics and Signage Plan at Union Station will improve wayfinding within the station as well as around its perimeter.

• Re-stripe parking areas for greater parking efficiency and create space for other uses such as bioswales, parklets, and community events.

• Create or continue ridership incentives such as providing station area vendor discounts, frequent rider programs, and events coordination such as Go Metro Weekends and Metro Presents.

• Enhance cell phone connectivity on board and at stations, and consider provision of Wi-Fi service for free or with an added fee on credit cards or cell phones with near-field communication (NFC) chips, which would also allow riders to pass ticket barriers in lieu of a TAP card.

• Install information kiosks and provide real-time intermodal information displays to allow riders to plan their travel and stay informed about estimated arrival times.

• Ensure that the information displayed is accurate by using live global positioning system (GPS) data feeds from trains and buses instead of outdated data from printed schedules to enhance rider confidence.

• Schedule cleaning at regular intervals to eliminate stains and odors, particularly in enclosed spaces such as elevators, and minimize trash buildup to maintain the sense of safety and reduce polluted runoff.

• Design and install appropriate lighting at station areas and park and ride lots to maintain a sense of security and allow pedestrians and cyclists to see potential safety hazards. Lighting that is appropriate to location and function increases safety, visibility, legibility of signage, accessibility, and security and decreases glare, undesirable dark corners, crime, and vandalism, resulting in increased user satisfaction.

• Improve informational and wayfinding signage for the catchment area within 0.5 mile of the station area and park and ride lots so that all user types (pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers) can locate the nearest station, park and ride lots, bus stops, bike routes, and other local destinations. A compass rose should be embedded at the ground level exit

TAP Card Incentives

• Locate stations strategically for the purpose of rejuvenating certain areas. By creating convenient access to the areas served by stations and turning station areas into destinations, Metro can stimulate local economic activities and revive the area, which in turn increases ridership. For example, the Mass Transit Railway Corporation (MTR), which manages the bus and subway system in Hong Kong, returned a 2013 annual profit of more than $13 billion Hong Kong ($1.7 billion U.S.), and the fares covered 194% of the operating costs in 2013 (total transport revenue of $48.4 Hong Kong per car-kilometer ÷ transport operating costs of $24.9 Hong Kong per car-kilometer) (MTR Corporation Limited 2013). It is one of the most efficient transit operators in the world, with a high average utilization rate of more than 5 million passengers per day in 2013. MTR negotiates with local businesses around the station to receive a portion of the profit, sign a co-ownership agreement, or accept a percentage of property development fees in exchange for transporting potential customers. In many cases, these transit-adjacent businesses, offices, and residences are leased from MTR. In effect, MTR controls both the means of transit and the places riders visit upon arriving, thereby essentially growing their own ridership through community development. This value capture model could function well in areas with growth potential that are willing to accept high-density development, where Metro can work with developers to create a compact community around a station that incorporates places to live, work, and play, and then turn a profit through either the lease or sale of the now more valuable properties.

Regulations and policies: Planning policies have a great influence on the spatial design and density of communities, commuting distances and routes, and parking allocation. Implementation of regulations and policies can result in both suburban sprawl and mixed-use development. It is important to consider the long-term effects of regulations and policies in order to ensure a sustainable future for public transit. The Los Angeles Department of Transportation has created the ExpressPark pilot program in downtown Los Angeles, which uses demand-based pricing based on data collected by parking space sensors to more efficiently use available parking spaces. Live data are sent to third-party smartphone applications to alert and guide drivers to available spaces, reducing congestion from drivers who would otherwise be circling the block. The system also allows payment via smartphone.

• Work with the city and county to modify zoning requirements to reduce incentives for driving and long-distance commutes and minimize creation of sprawl (Tachieva 2010; Sacramento Area Council of Governments 2004; Wilson and Roberts 2010; Shoup 2011; Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs 2007). For example, reduce the ratio of required off-street parking spaces for new developments, which would have a twofold effect of reducing incentives for driving and providing additional space for income generation for the developer by converting required parking spaces to more residential units or commercial units; implement adaptive parking fees that vary based on time and day to achieve a certain occupancy rate and use the revenue locally; or provide incentives to develop transit-oriented development to create compact and walkable communities.

Transit-Oriented Development

Urban Forestry

Create green spaces: Vegetation can serve multiple purposes—it can improve aesthetics, absorb odors and filter air pollutants, absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, provide shade, reduce storm water runoff and improve water quality, and reduce noise.

• Develop parks to provide a large green space that can serve as a destination, provide recreation, improve air quality through filtration of air pollutants and odor absorption, reduce greenhouse gases by sequestering carbon from carbon dioxide, reduce heat island effects by providing shade, reduce storm water runoff and improve water quality by allowing for infiltration, and reduce noise by absorbing sound (Sherer 2006; Walker 2004; American Planning Association 2003; Alliance for Community Trees 2011).

• Review the potential for creating parklets in places that cannot accommodate a full-size park (Loukaitou-Sideris et al. 2013). Even a small park can result in virtually all of the positive benefits that a full-sized park would have had.

• Subsidize or donate land for community gardens, which would not only provide all of the positive benefits of a park at a lower cost but also foster community involvement and ownership, minimize

Air Quality

Create healthy indoor spaces: Underground station areas can trap air pollutants. Therefore, efforts should be made to minimize the release of pollutants and maximize the capture of the pollutants.

• Use paints and cleaning supplies that have been tested to emit low levels of VOCs. VOCs contribute to ozone and smog and exposure may result in respiratory illnesses, and indoor environments can concentrate VOCs to higher levels (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 2012). Using low-VOC products will reduce negative air quality effects at new stations and existing stations undergoing maintenance or renovation.

• Install high-efficiency particulate absorption (HEPA) air filters to remove brake dust and other pollutants from enclosed station areas.

• Install green walls to improve indoor air quality. A green wall can contain over a thousand plants, all of which will filter air and release oxygen. These plants can absorb and filter pollutants from the air such as formaldehyde, VOCs, trichloroethylene, carbon monoxide, benzene, toluene, and xylene (National Aeronautics and Space Administration 1989), reducing the potential health impacts to riders at underground stations. Furthermore, green walls can provide added thermal insulation, leading to reduced energy use for heating and cooling (Green Roofs for Healthy Cities 2014).

Green Spaces

Connectivity

Coordinate modal integration with local agencies to create efficient connections between transport modes and services: An interconnected network of streets, walking paths, bike routes, bus routes, and light rail enhances accessibility throughout the local area and encourages riders to incorporate public transit into their regular travel mode. Although many arterials have infrastructure for automobiles and transit, most have sidewalks, and some have bicycle lanes, it is important to ensure that these sidewalks and bicycle lanes are integrated into a seamless transportation network. For example, sidewalks may not provide a continuous path between destinations; sidewalks may be too narrow, or have uneven surfaces; sidewalks may be blocked by utility poles, shelters, trash receptacles, or bike racks that obstruct travel; sidewalks may lack curb ramps for wheelchair users; and street crossings may be too long, lacking in signage, or dangerous. To ensure universal pedestrian access, sidewalks should be designed to accommodate pedestrians of all ages and physical abilities, be safe, be easy to

the effects of food deserts by producing healthier foods that may otherwise not be available to low-income individuals; reduce the carbon footprint of transporting food; recycle organic wastes; offer physical activity; enhance the sense of security by having more eyes on the street; increase neighboring property values; and provide a local gathering place for information and cultural exchange, education programs, and other local events (Alaimo et al. 2008; Chicago Botanic Garden and City of Chicago 2003; Community Food Security Coalition 2003; Krasny and Saldivar-Tanaka 2004; Kuo et al. 1998; Pollan 2008; Bremer and Kanter 2003; Gardening Matters 2012).

• Install green roofs in places that have no open land to convert to green spaces. Green roofs can provide shade, and the process of evapotranspiration allows the plants to reduce the temperature of the roof surface and thereby reduce the heat island effect (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Atmospheric Programs n.d.). Similar to green walls or other green spaces, green roofs act as insulators, reducing energy needed to heat and cool structures; filter air pollutants, sequester carbon, and release oxygen; and reduce storm water runoff and improve water quality by filtering pollutants (Chicago Department of Environment n.d.; Green Roofs for Healthy Cities 2014; U.S. General Services Administration 2011).

use and navigate, provide a continuous path of travel, and seamlessly connect people to places. There may be bicycle lanes, but those lanes may be poorly designed or may not be integrated into a bicycle network, leaving gaps that create unsafe conditions for bicyclists as they create their own paths to connect their origin and destination points. Therefore, improvements should focus not only on creating new sidewalks and bicycle lanes but also on improving existing sidewalks and bicycle lanes to facilitate efficient and safe travel across the transportation network. Since Metro does not own or have jurisdictional control over transit access routes beyond the immediate footprint of station facilities and Metro-owned property, Metro will have to work cooperatively with local agencies to develop the infrastructure needed to create an integrated and seamless multimodal transportation network.

• Create feeder services and convenient pedestrian walkways that allow seamless connections between stations and the surrounding area to minimize the required walking distance between the origin and destination.

• Create further fare integration with more local transit agencies, as has already been done with the Antelope Valley Transit Authority, Culver City Bus, Foothill Transit, Gardena Municipal Bus Lines, Los Angeles Department of Transportation, Montebello Bus Lines, Norwalk Transit, Santa Clarita Transit, and Torrance Transit.

• Work with local agencies to increase the number of bike routes and ensure that they connect to station areas and park and ride lots.

• Work with local agencies to maintain bike routes and make repairs as needed.

• Design bike routes to minimize potential conflicts with park and ride lots and vehicle crossings.

• Prioritize pedestrian movements in streets that surround station areas and park and ride lots using traffic calming measures such as reduced speed limits.

• Work with local agencies to ensure that there are walkable pedestrian paths within station areas and park and ride lots, and check for sidewalk continuity. Connect US, the companion study to the Union Station Master Plan, recommends 13 separate projects that would create pedestrian and bicycling corridors between Union Station and surrounding neighborhoods such as Chinatown, Boyle Heights, Little Tokyo, the Civic Center, and the Art District, increasing connectivity across the area. Metro will work with the City of Los Angeles to plan these improvements, which include expanded sidewalks and protected bike lanes.

• Ensure that guidelines for sidewalk widths are followed and that sidewalks are maintained and repaired as needed.

• Design safe pedestrian access routes and street crossings by minimizing vehicle crossing of paths; providing clear signage; and providing unobstructed views at crossings that are free from obstacles such as poles, trees, or structures.

• Separate bike routes and pedestrian paths to minimize the risk of collisions.

Bike Route

• Minimize distances between bus stops and station areas and post appropriate signage to ease transfers and aid wayfinding.

• Synchronize bus and light rail arrival times and frequencies using available location data so that there is sufficient time to catch the bus upon arrival at a station area.

• Coordinate with local agencies to enhance connectivity to points of interest. For example, the Red Line connects to the Los Angeles Department of Transportation DASH bus to provide direct access to Griffith Park, one of the largest urban green spaces in the United States.

• Incentivize carpool, vanpool, and other rideshare programs by allocating priority parking.

• Work with car-sharing companies such as Zipcar to provide co-location at park and ride lots. A TAP card or smart phone can be easily integrated into the tracking and payment system to provide complete multimodal fare integration.

• Work with bike-sharing companies to provide co-location at station areas. Bike sharing has been proven to be effective in transit-progressive cities both internationally and domestically, and Metro recently

issued a request for proposals for a bike share program in the County of Los Angeles, with costs to be split between Metro and the local municipality. On the Blue Line, Bikestation has built a Long Beach location on the transit-only mall on First Street, creating a nexus for light rail, buses, bicyclists, pedestrians, and a local shuttle that services neighborhoods and key attractions. Bikestation Long Beach offers indoor bicycle parking, bike rentals, and repair services. Although the largest programs are in Asia (China) and Europe (Paris), other domestic examples include Capital Bikeshare in the Washington, D.C. metro area; Divvy in Chicago; Citi Bike in New York; and Bay Area Bike Share in the San Francisco Bay Area. A TAP card or smart phone can be easily integrated into the tracking and payment system to provide complete multimodal fare integration.

Site stations using geographic information systems analysis. Site new stations using data on residential density, zoning designations and land uses, availability of housing, potential work or school destinations, bus stops, and recreation destinations.

• Consider anchoring points when routing new lines. If a transit line is operating through an area of uniform density with points of interest that are evenly dispersed along the line, it is likely that a large portion of its capacity would go to waste. In this scenario, the vehicle will leave the start of the line empty, fill gradually with riders, reach maximum load at the midpoint of the line, and then gradually empty as it reaches the end of the line. This means that if the line’s capacity is scaled to the maximum level (which is at the midpoint), the line would have wasted capacity near the start and end of the line. A line designed with many attractive points of interests at the two ends would likely have high ridership over the whole length of the line, resulting in a much more efficient use of overall line capacity.

Utilize vacant lots. When left vacant, these lots can attract crime and refuse, reduce the sense of safety, and add to the sense of urban blight, potentially resulting in reduced rider satisfaction.

• Work with local agencies to provide incentives to develop vacant lots in the vicinity of station areas. Developments near station areas can be beneficial to both Metro and the development.

• Purchase or lease vacant lots as additional park and ride lots if there are no existing lots or if existing lots are frequently at capacity.

• Allow for weekend communal use or shared adaptive use of park and ride lots during non-peak commuting hours for programming and activities such as entertainment and cultural events, farmers markets, craft fairs, and youth activities. In a previous study, Metro determined that certain areas around the Blue Line did not have access to fresh, healthy food. In response, Metro established the Blue Line Farmers Market in partnership with the City of Compton, where more than 15% of the residents are located more than 1.5 miles away from the nearest grocery store. To further increase ridership incentive, the farmers market offers a discount to holders of Metro TAP cards.

Establish new points of interest or take advantage of existing points of interest.

• Work with local agencies to provide incentives for developing points of interest within station areas, such as restaurants, bars, markets, shopping, parks, and entertainment venues.

• Integrate developments above, under, around, and within station areas and park and ride lots to create additional destinations, stimulate the local economy, and potentially provide additional revenue streams. For example, the Del Mar Station on the Gold Line integrates residences, restaurants, bars, a large park, a park and ride lot, shopping, markets, entertainment venues, schools, and health care facilities within 0.5 mile of the station, even though the operation of these developments are independent from that of the Gold Line. This is a prime example of excellent station siting.

Summary

Case studies include the top-scoring station in each category contributing to the final opportunity score (Water Resources, Utilization, Urban Forestry, Connectivity), as well as the station with the greatest overall opportunity score. The Washington Station on the Blue Line has the greatest overall opportunity score in the entire system and is also the top-scoring station in the Water Resources category. The LAC+USC Medical Center Station on the Silver Line has the greatest opportunity score in the Utilization category. The San Pedro St Station on the Blue Line has the greatest opportunity score in the Urban Forestry category. The top-scoring station for the Connectivity category is the future Irwindale Station to be located on the Gold Line extension. Each case study will give an in-depth and detailed description of the station conditions as they relate to the scoring category and will provide a brief comparison with a station that has the least opportunity in the same category. All of the analysis and recommendations for these case studies will be based on the 0.5-mile buffer area. In addition to providing a case study for each station with the greatest opportunity for each category, a case study was undertaken for the Slauson Station on the Silver Line to illustrate potential uses for underutilized parking lots. Furthermore, the Del Mar Station is included as a comparison case study because it scores highly across most categories for existing conditions and therefore has one of the lowest overall greening opportunity score.

5.1 Overall Opportunity and Water Resources—Washington Station

Analysis

The station with the highest opportunity score overall and in the Water Resources category is the Washington Station on the Blue Line. This station is located near the intersection of East Washington Boulevard and Long Beach Avenue, south of downtown Los Angeles and Interstate 10, and approximately 2 miles east of the University of Southern California. This is an at-grade station, with an island platform in the center median of Long Beach Avenue. The station area ranks 87 in population (out of 135 stations) and 62 in the amount of acreage of Metro-owned parcels and public ROWs. No Metro parking lots are located near the station, but one small Metro-owned parcel that appears to have a substation is located southwest of the station.

This station has the highest potential for greening in the Water Resources category because it had an average of 90.6% impervious surfaces in the station area extent, providing the highest opportunity

to reduce impervious surfaces and improve water resources. In addition to having the highest opportunity in the Water Resources category, the Washington Station ranks high in opportunities for all other categories (25 in Utilization, 7 in Urban Forestry, and 7 in Connectivity), giving this station the most potential for greening in the entire system. This station does not have parking lots, electric plug-in stations, or bike lockers/racks, creating opportunities in the Utilization category. It has low tree canopy coverage, generating opportunities in the Urban Forestry category. There are no bike routes in the station area, very few bus stops, and a large amount of vacant lot acreage, leading to opportunities in the Connectivity category.

This station area has a large amount of commercial, industrial, and manufacturing zoned parcels within the station area (approximately 85% of the total zoning), with a low amount of residential zoned areas (approximately 15% of the total zoning). The station looks out onto a landscape of buildings and concrete, with little pervious surfaces or greenery. There appears to be an abundance of parking at businesses around the area, further increasing the amount of impervious surfaces. Sidewalks are narrow and in need of repair and mostly devoid of trees or vegetation. Pedestrian crossings are also few and far between, making the entire area unfriendly for foot traffic. Access to alternative destinations via bus or bike is nearly nonexistent as few stops and no routes are located in the station area.

The station platform and immediate surrounding area (in between the northbound and southbound lanes of Long Beach Avenue) have more pervious surfaces with gravel under the rail tracks. Adjacent to the eastern rail tracks is an old, inactive railroad line embedded in concrete approximately 30 feet wide and stretching the length of the station between Washington Boulevard and East 20th Street. Lining the platform on the northwestern and northeastern edges are pervious areas with landscaping and plants, watered by a sprinkler system. The station itself had more pervious surfaces than the immediate surrounding areas. The existing awning covers less than half of the station, leaving the other half exposed to the sun or rain, creating an uncomfortable waiting area for potential riders. The station can only be accessed via the north end, as there are no crosswalks leading to the platform on the southern end, and stairs lead to a gate with an emergency exit only sign. There are no bike lockers/racks on or around the station platform. Overall, conditions on the ground support the analyses that the station area has a high opportunity for greening and that improvements at this station could be considered for all categories.

103

Comparison

In contrast to the Washington Station, the station with the lowest opportunity for greening in the Water Resources category is the future APU / Citrus College Station, expected to be located on the future Gold Line extension near Azusa. This station has an average of 44.7% impervious surface over the entire station area, as this station area consists of suburban residential areas, a college, and undeveloped land. There are many streets lined with vegetation and trees, unlike the streets at the Washington Station.

The station with the lowest overall opportunity for greening is the Sierra Madre Villa station, located at the eastern terminus on the Gold Line. This station is not the lowest-scoring station in any particular category, but has low scores in every category. It is ranked 106 (out of 135) in the Water Resources category due to a low existing percentage of impervious surfaces; 134 in the Utilization category due to high numbers in ridership and parking utilization, with a number of bike lockers/racks and electric plug-in stations at the station; 129 in the Urban Forestry category, due to a high existing tree canopy coverage; and 116 in the Connectivity category as there are a number of bus stops, bike routes, and points of interest in the station area.

Recommendations

In the station area full extent, coordination with the City of Los Angeles would likely be needed to determine strategies for reducing impervious surfaces, as there are few Metro-owned parcels in the station area, along with adding bus stops and bike routes on streets near the station. Planting vegetation and trees along sidewalks or using pervious concrete would help water resources in the station area. In the immediate surrounding area, portions of the old railroad line could be transformed into a pervious surface through the planting of drought-resistant native vegetation, bioswales, and installation of pavers, or a combination of all three. Seating and shade can also be installed in this area to create a public space for riders or workers local to the area. The vegetation along the station platform could be watered using a drip system instead of sprinklers in order to conserve water. In addition, rain barrels could be placed on the northern end of the platform to catch storm water running off the platform or from the awning, and be used for the irrigation of plants along the platform. The awning can also be extended for the entire length of the station to provide shelter against the sun and rain, and be covered with solar panels to provide locally generated electricity to power the lights and information displays. Crosswalks could be placed on the southern end of the station to allow access from both sides, or signage on the southern end could direct riders to the northern end of the platform. Vacant lots could be developed to provide additional points of interest or destinations. To increase the points of interest, Metro could work with local agencies to provide incentives for developing destination points such as restaurants, bars, markets, and entertainment venues.

5.2 Utilization—LAC+USC Medical Center

Analysis

The station with the highest opportunity score in the Utilization category is the LAC+USC Medical Center Station on the Silver Line BRT. This station has an island platform located in the median of the El Monte Busway north of Interstate 10 and east of Interstate 5, south of the LAC+USC Medical Center. The station area ranks 76 in population (out of 135 stations) and 5 in the amount of acreage of Metro-owned parcels and public ROWs (mostly freeway ROWs). The only access to the station is a 175-foot overhead walkway from the intersection of Pomeroy Avenue and Kingston Avenue. There are no Metro parking lots associated with this station, but a parking structure is located near the overhead walkway.

This station ranks low in all existing measures related to the Utilization category, creating the greatest opportunities for improvement. There are no bike racks/lockers, electric plug-in stations, or parking lots, and the rider utilization per person is the second lowest of any station (0.05 weekly boardings per person, 416 weekly boardings on average). The station is difficult to locate because it can only be reached via an overhead walkway from a side street and is surrounded by highways and a railroad. There is a Metro and USC bus stop near the walkway.

The station platform (where riders wait for the bus) has signage for bus routes and information for the Medical Center, but no functioning electronic displays are present. A number of security cameras are located on the ceiling of the station. An awning covers the majority of the area where riders are waiting, and there is bench seating where riders can wait. There are also a number of trees surrounding the platform, which provide shade and noise reduction. The overhead walkway is an open air walkway with chain-link fencing, but there is no signage on the stairwell or walkway to provide riders with information on destinations or bus arrival times. Furthermore, there is no signage on the main streets near the Medical Center directing riders to the location of this Silver Line station. Because the station is in the middle of a busway and surrounded by a freeway, the platform is very loud and smells of exhaust, due to passing traffic, and large bollards separate the platform from the busway. This station also had stops for Foothill Transit, in addition to the Metro Silver Line.

Comparison

In contrast to the LAC+USC Medical Center Station, the station with the lowest opportunity for greening in the Utilization category is the Universal City / Studio City Station, located on the Red Line in the Studio City neighborhood, 0.25 mile west of Universal Studios and east of Highway 101. This station has low opportunity scores in most measures in the Utilization category. The Rail and Transit Way Utilization measure ranks 128 (out of 135 stations) with 10.12 weekly boardings per person, the Parking Capacity measure ranks 130 with 827 total parking spots over the station area, the Electric Plug-in measure ranks 133 as this is one of few stations with plug-in locations, and the Bike Locker/rack Capacity measure ranks 128 with a value of 0.0098 capacity per person (48 total lockers at the station).

Recommendations

To improve utilization and ridership at the LAC+USC Medical Center Silver Line Station, it is recommended that wayfinding signage be used near the LAC+USC Medical Center and on main roads around the Medical Center. Adding wayfinding signage could help increase ridership as this station is difficult to find and is not in an area of high visibility. Because this station is in the middle of a busway, there is little area to make improvements directly to the station platform that would increase utilization. Bike storage areas and lockers/racks could be in areas long the walls on the station platform or adjacent to the overhead walkway entrance/exit. However, bike lockers would be recommended over bike racks due to potential security concerns, especially if located near the walkway. Bike storage may enhance multimodal transit and incentivize zero-emission travel. Solar panels could be installed on the existing awnings or on the walkway to provide shelter against the sun and rain and to provide locally generated electricity to power lights, information displays, and security cameras. Working with the Medical Center for access to parking or to create incentive programs for riding may increase utilization.

station may only have average opportunities to increase tree canopy as a result of the field verification, but recommendations for improving the station’s score in the Urban Forestry category are still valid.

Comparison

In contrast to the San Pedro St Station, the station with the lowest opportunity for greening in the Urban Forestry category is the future Wilshire / Rodeo Station, expected to be located on the future Purple Line extension in Beverly Hills, east of Santa Monica Boulevard. This station area contains a high percentage of tree canopy cover, which is associated with tree-lined streets from suburban residential development, and ranks 126 (out of 135) for opportunity in the Tree Canopy measure (3.5% existing tree canopy cover). This station area does not have any zoned open space areas; therefore, the potential to create parks or green space in future open space area does not exist unless zoning is changed.

Recommendations

In the station area full extent, coordination with the City of Los Angeles would likely be needed to determine strategies for increasing tree canopy, as there are few Metro-owned parcels in the station area. Within the large, Metro-owned bus depot area, trees could be planted to help increase the score for the Urban Forestry category for the station area extent. Parcels that are zoned as open space should be considered for creating green space (e.g., parks or gardens) if not already used for green space, or for additional tree plantings for parcels that already exist as a park or green space. Green roofs could be installed over platform areas that were not covered to provide shade and reduce the heat island effect. In coordination with the City of Los Angeles and local businesses/residents, additional drought-tolerant vegetation can be planted south of the station in the residential areas to create small green spaces as there are no existing nearby parks and very little available land to develop a park.

5.3 Urban Forestry—San Pedro St Station

Analysis

The station with the highest opportunity score in the Urban Forestry category is the San Pedro St Station on the Blue Line. This station is located at the intersection of East Washington Boulevard and Stanford Avenue, south of downtown Los Angeles and Interstate 10, and approximately 1.5 miles northeast of the University of Southern California. This is an at-grade station, with an island platform in the center median of Washington Boulevard. The station area ranks 69 in population (out of 135 stations) and 24 in the amount of acreage of Metro-owned parcels and public ROWs. No Metro parking lots are located near the station, but one small Metro-owned parcel that appears to have a substation is located southwest of the station, and what appears to be a large bus depot, owned by Metro, is located approximately 0.15 mile north of this station, north of Interstate 10.

This station has the highest potential for greening in the Urban Forestry category because it has an average of 0.065% tree canopy coverage in the station area extent and is the 75 highest ranked station area for open space zoning, a combination leading to the highest opportunity to improve the Urban Forestry category. This station area has a large amount of commercial, industrial, and manufacturing zoned parcels within the station area (approximately 65% of the total zoning), and a fairly low amount of residential zoned areas (approximately 35% of the total zoning). The station platform and immediate surrounding areas have a fair number of trees lining the streets as well as vegetation east and west of the platform and had an awning providing shade to approximately 20% of the platform.

During the site visit, multiple pedestrians were observed to jaywalk, hop the rail tracks, and enter the platform through the emergency exit at the east end of the platform; this is likely due to the long distances between pedestrian crossings and the lack of signage directing where to enter the platform. The site visit also indicated that there is more tree canopy coverage than the data indicated. It will be important to field verify the opportunity score prior to design and implementation of greening strategies to ensure that spatial data and analysis accurately reflect conditions on the ground. For example, this

105

all other stations. In terms of opportunities, the Total Bike Routes measure has a rank of 71 (out of 135 stations), the Bike Routes Leading to Stations measure ranks 96 with 0.057 mile of existing routes within 300 feet of the station, the Bus Stops measure ranks 125 with 132 existing stops in the station area, the Vacant Lots measure ranks 43 with 0.12 acre of vacant lot per station area acre, the Points of Interest measure ranks 133 with a value of 0.90 point of interest per acre (454 points within the station area), and the VMT measure ranks 102. These ranks lead to the Pershing Square Station having the lowest overall opportunity score in the Connectivity category.

Recommendations

In the station area full extent, coordination with the City of Irwindale, City of Azusa, and Foothill Transit would likely be needed to determine strategies for adding bike routes and bus stops to streets within the station area. Adding these items would allow riders to access additional destinations without needing a car and would help decrease the high average VMT of the residents in the area. Bike routes should be designed to minimize potential conflicts with vehicles and should lead directly to the station. Pedestrian access routes and street crossings should be implemented and designed to minimize conflicts with vehicles. The high number and acreage of vacant lots could be developed to provide additional points of interest or destinations, and can benefit Metro and the development. To increase the points of interest, Metro could work with local agencies to provide incentives for developing destination points such as restaurants, bars, markets, and entertainment venues. Since these recommendations can be incorporated into the design phase, implementation may be easier when compared to an existing station.

5.4 Connectivity—Future Irwindale Station

Analysis

The station with the highest opportunity score in the Connectivity category is the future Irwindale Station on the future Gold Line extension east of Pasadena. This station will be located approximately 0.5 mile east of Highway 605 and immediately south of Highway 210 in Irwindale. The station area ranks 133 in population (out of 135 stations) and 125 in the amount of acreage of Metro-owned parcels and public ROWs. This future station is proposed to have one parking lot with 350 parking spaces. Because it is a future station, it is also likely to be a candidate for implementation of greening strategies during design and construction.

This station has the highest potential for greening in the Connectivity category because it does not have any bike routes or bus stops in the station area, has the highest amount of vacant lot acreage, has the fewest points of interest, and has the fourth highest average VMT. There are suburban residential blocks spread across the station buffer area, undeveloped parcels in the northern portion of the area, and a college campus in the southeastern portion of the area. Because this is a future station, the station presents a prime opportunity to develop an appropriate level of multimodal transit access in the area.

Comparison

In contrast to the future Irwindale Station, the station with the lowest opportunity for greening in the Connectivity category is the Pershing Square Station, located in downtown Los Angeles adjacent to Pershing Square on the Red Line. This station has low-ranking opportunity scores in most measures in the Connectivity category because there are many existing bus stops, bike routes, and points of interest in the downtown Los Angeles area; therefore, there are less opportunities for this station compared to

106

5.5 Parking Utilization—Slauson Station

Analysis

The station with the highest opportunity score for the Parking Utilization measure in the Utilization category is the Slauson Station on the Silver Line BRT. A case study was conducted on this station because it highlights the potential for alternative uses of parking lots, which was an important factor during public focus groups and outreach surveys. This station has an island platform located in the median of Highway 110 in south Los Angeles at Slauson Avenue. The station area ranks 16 in population (out of 135 stations) and 25 in the amount of acreage of Metro-owned parcels and public ROWs. The station can be accessed from under the Highway 110 overpass on Slauson Avenue or by a stairwell located in the eastern parking lot. There are two park and ride lots located east and west of the station on Slauson Avenue.

The parking lots have a potential capacity of 151 spaces, with only 5% of the lot utilized on average. The parking lots are surrounded by freeway off ramps, with limited signage and striping on the eastern lot; trash is scattered about; transient encampments are located in the western lot; and cover/shading consists of a few sporadically placed trees and a cell tower. Furthermore, this station has the lowest rider utilization per person (0.035 weekly boarding per person, 548 weekly average boardings). During the field visit, there appeared to be bike and pedestrian traffic around the station, but few cars were parked in the parking lot. Since this station area has a relatively high total population to draw from and because the lots are being seldom used, there are opportunities to use parking lots for alternative events to attract people to the station exist, which could, in turn, increase ridership.

Comparison

In contrast to the Slauson Station, the station with the lowest opportunity score for the parking utilization measure in the Utilization category is the LAX / Aviation Station on the Green Line, located south of Highway 105 and southeast of LAX in Inglewood. This station has a parking capacity of 390 spaces and has a utilization of 103%, which is greater than capacity. Due to the high parking utilization at this station, there would be very little opportunity to host alternative use in the parking lot area.

Recommendations

To improve ridership and increase the utilization of the Slauson Station parking lots, it is recommended that events be held in one or both of the parking lots during non-peak commuting hours on a regular basis. Events such as job fairs, farmers markets, flea markets, cultural events, craft fairs, and youth activities would lead to increased use of the station area and potentially increased ridership. In addition, a portion of one of the parking lots could be converted permanently into a community garden or green space to benefit community members. To increase the frequency of cars parking in the lots, it is recommended that signage and lighting be improved in the parking lot areas to promote safety and allow riders to plan their trips. Furthermore, wayfinding signage in the immediately surrounding area to indicate the presence of these Metro parking lots could increase the use of these lots. Additional vegetation and shade structures could be installed in the parking lots to provide shelter against the sun and rain.

107

5.6 Transit-Oriented Development—Del Mar Station

Analysis

Metro encourages transit-oriented development (TOD) to facilitate pedestrian and bicycle improvements and enhance connectivity. High-density residential and commercial development reduces VMT by 20% to 40% compared to the average U.S. development because TODs not only reduce automobile travel but also reduce the average distance between destinations such as housing, employment, and retail (Ewing et al. 2007). In compact development areas, transit trips taken for shopping, dining, or other non-commuting purposes are often shifted from driving to walking or bicycling, even for those who drive to work.

The Avalon Del Mar Station, which won a Congress for the New Urbanism Charter Award in 2003, is a TOD that surrounds the Del Mar Station on the Gold Line connecting Los Angeles and Pasadena. The development includes 347 apartments, with 15% affordable units. Approximately 20,000 square feet of on-site restaurants and retail, as well as a Pasadena Police substation, are linked with a network of public plazas, paseos, and private courtyards. The site includes underground parking spaces for 1,200 cars, with 600 spaces dedicated to transit. This site ranks 134 out of 135 for overall greening opportunities because of good existing conditions. This station is ranked 119 lowest (out of 135) in the Water Resources category, 98 in the Utilization category, 121 in the Urban Forestry category, and 128 in the Connectivity category for opportunity for greening.

The Del Mar Station ranks low in opportunities related to water resources because there are many pervious surfaces within the station area. Central Park is located across the street to the west of the station, which is comprised mostly of grass and trees, with few impervious structures (small buildings and concrete pathways). In addition, residential complexes to the east and southeast contain a number

of pervious green spaces. At the station, drought-tolerant plants have been planted to reduce water consumption. This station has low opportunities in the Utilization category because it has a large-capacity parking structure, provides 26 bike lockers/racks for multimodal transportation, and has an average of 10,163 weekly riders. The Del Mar Station has low opportunities in the Urban Forestry category due to a high percentage of existing tree canopy and a park, Central Park, located across the street. Central Park and the residential complexes contain many trees, providing lower opportunities for greening related to Urban Forestry. The Connectivity category for this station also has low opportunities for greening due to a high number of bus stops, bike routes, and points of interest in the station area. Surrounding the station are residential complexes, restaurants, and parking structures. This TOD provides dining, retail, and residential destinations for riders. Furthermore, having bus stops located on the streets adjacent to the station allow for riders to access more destinations after arriving at the station. This station is a good template for the redevelopment of existing stations or design of future stations.

Recommendations

Although the Del Mar Station has a low overall opportunity score, greening improvements can still be considered for this station; however, this station should be given a lower priority than stations with greater opportunity scores. Impervious pavement, recycled water, and drip irrigation systems could be used around the station to decrease water use and runoff. Electric charging stations could be installed in the parking lots to incentivize zero-emission travel. Solar panels could be placed on the stairwell awnings and/or LED lights can be installed to reduce electricity usage. Ridership incentives to provide station area vendor discounts can be continued and expanded to additional vendors.
