Merced HST Station

Principles and PrototypesTypical HST Station Platform Configurations

Northbound Southbound

Single Center Platform

• Local trains (brown) on inside tracks stop at station

• Both directions use same platform

• Express trains (red) pass through on outside tracks and do not stop at station

Transportation: Land Use:

Station as part of

the High Speed

Train system:

Role 1:Facilitate access to HST and transfers with alternate modes

Role 2:Provide goods and services tailored to passengers

Station as part of

the Community:

Role 3:Encourage local use of HST and public transit

Role 4:Stimulate and support sustainable urban development

Merced HST Station

Alternative Parking ScenariosParking Scenario 1

• Under the initial phase of HST in the Central Valley, Merced Station is the northern terminus, serving passengers from as far north as Sacramento and beyond. The parking capacity of 7700 spaces reflects this drive-in market.

• Under Scenario 1, all parking is provided in garages adjacent to the station.

• The parking capacity drops to 2000 spaces after HST is extended to Sacramento, leaving the garages with an excess capacity of 5700 spaces.

Parking Scenario 2• Under Scenario 2, only the future parking capacity of 2000 spaces is provided in

a garage. All other spaces are provided by interim parking at other locations:

700 spaces in a station surface lot

2310 spaces in other surface lots within a half mile of the station

500 spaces in shared parking facilities within a half mile of the station

2190 spaces in remote parking facilities, served by parking shuttle buses
