planning study that is looking at MetroLink and other transit improvements for the City
of St. Louis. It is a continuation of the studies completed in 2000 known as the Major
Transportation Investment Analyses or MTIAs. These studies resulted in the
selection of locally preferred alternatives (LPAs) to best address transportation and
other related needs in North St. Louis City and County, South St. Louis City and County
and West St. Louis County. The Northside-Southside Study will update and refine the
LPAs that were selected for transit improvements in portions of St. Louis City.

East-West Gateway Council of Governments, the region’s local planning


organization, is conducting the Northside-Southside Study along with its partners,
Metro and the Missouri Department of Transportation. It has hired a consulting team,
led by HNTB, along with URS and Vector Communications, to assist with the study.
Funding for the Northside-Southside Study is made possible through state transpor-
tation development tax credits for distressed areas. Under Missouri law, St. Louis City
is considered a distressed area.

Previous Transportation Planning Results


The Northside-Southside Study will build upon LPAs selected during the
MTIAs of 2000. However because of financial constraints, only portions of the LPAs
will be studied during the Northside-Southside Study.

The Northside LPA is a light rail extension from downtown St. Louis to North
St. Louis County. It recommended using rights-of-way within 14th Street, North
Florissant Avenue, Natural Bridge Avenue, Riverview Boulevard, the Norfolk Southern
Railroad and West Florissant Avenue.

Two LPAs were selected for the Southside. One alternative recommended a
light rail extension from downtown St. Louis to South St. Louis County that would use
rights-of-way within 14th Street, Chouteau Avenue, and the Union Pacific Railroad to
I-55. The other alternative suggested a new two-lane bus-only roadway known as
Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) that would allow buses to move at higher speeds. The route
would travel from near Grand Avenue to Loughborough Avenue using rights-of-way

How to Fund Transit Improvements


Funding for the “Northside-Southside Transit Improvements Study” is made possible through state transportation develop-
ment tax credits for distressed areas. Under Missouri definitions, the City of St. Louis is classified as a distressed area. Therefore,
only portions of the Northside and Southside corridors from the previous planning studies that fall within the City of St. Louis are
currently being studied.

The Northside-Southside Study is following federal guidelines in order to be able to compete eventually for capital funding
through the Federal Transit Administration’s New Starts program, the primary source for federal funding for major transit projects.
If St. Louis is selected for the New Starts program, it could receive up to 50% of construction costs. However, the remaining 50%
would have to come from non-federal sources.

Transit is generally funded by a combination of federal, state, local and private sources. Missouri law allows for a maximum
full cent tax for transportation, of which a quarter cent is currently being used by Metro. This tax was passed by St. Louis City and
County voters in 1994. However in 1997, an additional quarter cent increase passed in the City but not in the County. Besides
traditional funding programs, creative funding approaches (such as the tax credits used to pay for this study) might be used to
reduce the resources needed for the local share.

Maps of Final Alternatives
T he following maps outline the MetroLink and other transit alternatives that are now going through
detailed analysis as part of the “Northside-Southside Transit Improvements Study.” They were
determined with help from the public’s input at the June meetings. In addition to the alternatives below,
the Jefferson/I-55 alternative shown on page 2 is also undergoing further study.

Northside Route Alternative


Natural Bridge Avenue / 14th Street is
the locally preferred alternative(LPA) from
previous planning studies. The route travels
north out of downtown on 14th Street, north
along North Florissant Avenue, west on
Natural Bridge and north on Goodfellow
terminating at Interstate 70. This alternative
would serve the core of Northside
residential and commercial development
including the Union 70 employment center.

Downtown Route Alternatives


Two alternatives are proposed to serve the downtown
area. On the left is a single one-way couplet using
9th and 10th Streets, while the one below is a single-
track loop traveling Olive and Chestnut Streets.

October 2006 page 4


Southside Route Alternatives
The Chouteau Avenue / Union Pacific Rail
Road (LPA) route travels south out of downtown
on 14th Street, west along Chouteau Avenue and
south on the Union Pacific Rail Road (UPRR) right-
of-way terminating in the vicinity of Interstate 55
and Loughborough Avenue. The Chouteau Avenue
route would provide service to development along
Chouteau.

The Gravois Avenue / UPRR route travels


south out of downtown on 14th Street or Tucker
Boulevard, south on Tucker Boulevard, southwest
on Gravois Avenue and south on the UPRR right-
of-way terminating in the vicinity of Interstate
55 and Loughborough Avenue. This alternative
would service transit dependent markets along
Gravois.

The Bus Rapid Transit / UPRR (LPA) route


travels west out of downtown on Market Street/
Forest Park Avenue, south on the UPRR right-of-
way terminating in the vicinity of Interstate 55 and
Loughborough Avenue. The BRT provides service
to St. Louis University, Forest Park Parkway and
Market Street.

Public Comments on Transit Options at June Meetings
Dozens of citizens gave their input on
several potential MetroLink routes and other transit
improvements for the City of St. Louis at the first round
of public meetings for the “Northside-Southside Transit
Improvements Study” held last June. Eight preliminary
alternatives were presented. Three of them were carried
over from previous planning studies completed in 2000.

Southside Open House


The majority of respondents (85%) said lack of
sustainable development, lack of access to opportunity,
and safety and security issues were correctly identified as
reasons to make transit improvements within the City of
St. Louis.

Northside Open House


Among the Northside preliminary alternatives
viewed by the public, Natural Bridge Avenue received the
most favorable responses on the Northside. Downtown
and Southside preliminary alternatives had much more
mixed responses. Both the Olive/Chestnut Single-Track
Loop and the 9th/10th One-Way Couplet downtown
received positive responses. On the Southside, all three
MetroLink alternatives (Chouteau/UPRR, Chouteau/Grand,
and Gravois/UPRR) received more positive comments
than negative comments. Respondents said these Downtown Open House

Next Steps
After nearly 20 months, the Northside-Southside
Major Transit Improvements Study is nearly
complete. The study team has a few more tasks
and they are outlined below:
* Review public comments from the September
open houses and
* Recommend a preferred MetroLink alternative
to East-West Gateway Council of Governments’
Board of Directors that includes northside,
southside and downtown.

Maps of Proposed Alternatives


The sreening and evaluation results of these
alternatives will be presented at the September
meetings. The locally preferred alternative will be
one route that travels from Goodfellow to Bayless/
I-55.

East-West Gateway’s Board of Directors will


decide whether or not to support the study
team’s recommendation. If it approves the
team’s recommended alternative, then the
complete study report could be sent to the
Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to be
considered for federal funding. If the FTA selects
the Northside-Southside alignment for funding,
then an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) will
be conducted. The purpose of the EIS is to study
in detail the economic, social and environmental
effects of the proposed alternative and to
evaluate whether there are other alternatives
that could minimize adverse impacts.

Potential MetroLink Extension Selected for St. Louis City Dec. 2007, Issue 4

The Board of Directors of the East-West Gateway Council of Governments, our region’s metropolitan planning agency, has approved a
potential MetroLink extension for the City of St. Louis. The board’s vote means that if or when light rail is expanded in the City, this is the
route that should be considered. The approved extension, known in transit planning as a locally preferred alternative, would travel in the
middle of the street as follows:
• From I-70 north near the Goodfellow Avenue exit
south to Natural Bridge;
• East to North Florissant, south on 14th Street into
Downtown;
• East on Convention Plaza, south to 10th Street, west
on Clark, south to 14th Street; and
• West on Chouteau Avenue, exit south onto Jefferson,
to Broadway exit to I-55 right-of-way terminating at
Bayless/I-55.
A separate set of tracks would move passengers, in the
opposite direction, from south to north.

The board’s approval culminates a two-year planning


study sponsored by East-West Gateway, Metro and
the Missouri Department of Transportation called the
“Northside-Southside Transit Improvements Study,” which
examined several potential light rail extensions for north
St. Louis, south St. Louis and downtown. At the study’s
start, with input from elected officials, stakeholders and
the general public, it was determined that an expanded
light rail system in the City was worth pursuing because
it would: encourage economic development, provide
access to opportunity, spur job growth and stabilize
neighborhoods. Armed with this information, the study
team began looking at several potential routes that
would achieve these goals. It started with eight possible
extensions, then through detailed analysis that included
costs, development opportunities, property impacts
and ridership, combined with public input, study team
members narrowed the options down to one. It was this
option that East-West Gateway’s board approved.

Meeting Purpose
As the initial meeting of the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), this meeting served
as a study kick-off to acquaint the members with the following information:
• Planning Context
• Community Engagement Results To-Date
• Purpose and Need
• Preliminary Alternatives
• Next Steps

Introductions
Donna Day, Manager, Transportation Corridor Improvement Group, opened the meeting
by having all meeting participants introduce themselves. Following the TAC member
introductions, Ms. Day reviewed the agenda and explained the purpose of the meeting.

Planning Context
Ms. Day began the presentation by explaining that the Northside-Southside Study is a
continuation of the Major Transportation Investment Analyses (MTIAs) studies
completed in 2000. The MTIAs and Northside-Southside Study are conducted under the
National Environment Policy Act process so that, if the study moves into the
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) phase, the work will become part of that
subsequent phase of the project. Ms. Day explained that the Northside-Southside Study
will update and refine the locally preferred alternatives (LPAs) selected in 2000 within
the City of St. Louis.

Ms. Day advised that the study team will seek technical assistance and advice from the
TAC throughout the study. During the 18-month study, the TAC will meet to review the
work products produced during each task. In addition to the TAC, two other committees
(the Policy Advisory and Resource Agency committees) will provide community input
and review the study process and results, respectively.
Community Engagement Results
Laurna Godwin explained to the TAC the numerous community engagement activities –
the stakeholder briefings that were completed between November and February and the
outreach presentations that began in March. Stakeholder interviews were conducted at
the onset of the study with more than 70 stakeholders representing government and
elected officials, community and business leaders. During the briefings, stakeholders
shared their opinions about:
• Current and Future Economic Development, and Transit-Oriented
Development;
• The Proposed Downtown Alternative;
• Proposed Routes and Alignments;
• The Public Engagement Process;
• Issues with the Current Streets and Roads;
• Ridership; and
• General Support for MetroLink.

Many stakeholders agreed that light rail will enhance development but there was concern
regarding potential negative impacts of “street running” trains on the Northside on small
businesses and residences. Some stakeholders mentioned that light rail should connect to
development projects currently underway such as: Greenways (Chouteau, Dr. King,
Great Rivers and St. Vincent); Loughborough Commons and bikeway; St. Louis
University; and rehabbed multi-family homes along Natural Bridge Road. The medical
complexes, the Southside and the proposed toll on the Mississippi River Bridge were
suggested as ridership generators.

Based on the number of comments and questions, the downtown loop and funding are the
most controversial issues of the study. Not only did stakeholders question the benefits of
the MTIA alternative, but there is also concern about the elimination of downtown
parking and revenue. Stakeholders also requested that the downtown service should
connect entertainment and residential areas.

Stakeholders suggested that the study team consider routes on Grand, Gravois, Chouteau,
Tucker and West Florissant, as well as crossing I-70. Likewise, they expressed concern
about cutting off streets and parking. Although most stakeholders support expanding
MetroLink, they noted that the project needs to be funded at a regional and federal level.
Members of Congress support the study and expressed a willingness to secure funding.

Purpose & Need and Preliminary Alternatives


Ken Kinney discussed the transportation-related problems that were identified through
the scoping process and outlined the subsequent goals and objectives for each of the
corridors. He explained that both the Northside and Southside need transit to access
opportunity and to create sustainable development. In addition, both corridors have
funding constraints. On the Northside, the loss of employment and population in high-
density areas as well as a decrease in personal safety must be addressed.

Northside-Southside Study TAC Meeting #1 Summary

Mr. Kinney said that the screening criteria used for selection of the LPAs in the MTIAs
will be revised for the purpose of this study. In addition to the community engagement
and stakeholder feedback, the project team considered existing and future conditions, and
the following design issues and standards:
• The location of the I-70 and I-55 Termini;
• Using existing or new structures for the Mill Creek Crossing; and
• The location of the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) alignment connections at
Chouteau.

Other considerations for the development of preliminary alternatives include the


relationship to land-use patterns and general transit-oriented design potential.
Subsequently, there are alignments from the MTIAs that are being re-considered. The
technical team suggests five initial preliminary light rail alternatives:
• Natural Bridge Road (LPA);
• Florissant Avenue;
• Chouteau Avenue/UPRR (LPA);
• Gravois Avenue;
• Grand Boulevard; and
• Bus Rapid Transit/UPRR (LPA).

Rick Nannenga of URS reviewed the aerial maps for the rail alignments, highlighting the
design issues, such as where termini could be put on the Northside and Southside.

Technical Advisory Committee Questions:

• Q: With all the parking garages, do we need another garage?


A: Not contradictory in a sense. Will have enough people using transit where
there won’t be a need for additional parking.
• Q: Northside Aldermen are pushing ahead. Spoke about express buses also. Are
we coming out with a recommendation for which area to complete first?
A: From a technical standpoint and to meet criteria for federal funding, it may
lend to decision to do Northside or Southside development first.
• Q: If we assume we will get 50% federal dollars, where do the non-federal
dollars come from?
A: For the St. Clair line, federal funds were 75% (required a 25% match). There
was a big pot. Now, we should plan on no more than 50%.
• Q: What is street running? Do the trains obey or supersede traffic laws?
A: Signal prioritization for transit is desirable to improve travel times, although
sometimes trains simply obey standard traffic signals.
• Q: Why is Northland the destination as opposed to other activity centers?
A: Florissant Valley Community College was the original destination. Northland
was on the way but came out as an alternate terminus. County has great hope for
redevelopment of that area.
• Q: Natural Bridge/West Florissant are planned bike routes. How do bike routes
impact the consideration of streets?

Northside-Southside Study TAC Meeting #1 Summary


-3-
A: The planned improvements are in the form of bike lanes, which is only paint
on the road, or can be easily restriped years from now.
• Q: How would new system interface with current Metro system? Would trains
run on current and new lines?
A: The new system would be designed to have convenient transfer opportunities
downtown. Trains would probably not run on both lines.
• Q: Would the new multi-modal center be accessible?
A: It is one of the key destinations being considered during planning.
• Q: Why would you use UPRR right-of-way?
A: Using existing rights-of-way is relatively inexpensive and allow for train to
run at higher speeds. We will work with UPRR on coordination issues.
• Q: How would people reach the casinos?
A: People would take existing Metro service to the casinos.

Technical Advisory Committee Comments:


• Want people, not traffic but do not eliminate downtown parking and revenue.
• St. Louis does not have a parking problem. Market provides parking. Almost
reached the point where we have enough parking.
• Noted - we have enough parking.
• The issue is education – people we serve want a happy medium (parking &
transit).
• New developments provide parking, it is not an issue.
• We should view this process as our best shot at where additional light rail lines
should go if we have the money to build them.
• We need to keep in mind we are addressing future parking issues; we are not
talking about today’s parking situation.
• Gas may cost $3.00 per gallon so the cost of fuel might be an impetus for
commuters to take transit.
• We do not have money to build anything now.
• We have to show what happens beyond the planned terminus on the Northside.
There are millions of dollars of development planned for Riverview. By the time
the preferred alternative is built, (20-30 years) it will be time to redevelop that
area.
• Gravois would be fast and direct, plus there are new vacancies in the area that
could be developed with transit.
• The Chouteau route would provide access to some sites that have dedicated
developments (dedicated developments?). This could be a win-win situation.
• The challenge for Gravois is that the cross streets are on a grid. Gravois could be
complex and we would have to limit left turns. However, Gravois used to have
complexity with the former reversible lanes.
• Gravois was a successful streetcar route in the city.
• The Grand alignment misses many neighborhoods. Grand has heavy traffic
although running on this street would allow connection to SLUH. You could
continue on Grand to Olive to hit both SLUH and HSSU; however, this would
still leave a lot of south city unserved.

Northside-Southside Study TAC Meeting #1 Summary


-4-
• I assume if you live in the Reavis Barracks area you could come up on the
Metrolink via the railroad ROW to the multimodal center where in 25 years also
might have a regional (i.e., heavy rail/commuter rail) from South City.
• The Southside alternatives will need to cross over I-44 on a bridge or another
structure. As we are replacing bridges we need to think about what is needed to
accommodate light rail track width. City has reduced lanes on Grand south of I-
44. Similarly, MODOT plans to reduce the number of lanes even on the new
Grand bridge at I-44.
• We do not need to consider bus rapid transit on the Northside. It was an option on
the table in the MTIA but the model showed Northside already well-served by
buses.
• Fourteenth Street is ideal for operations, however it is too far away from where
folks want to go within Downtown.
• Need to keep in mind future extensions, for example Cross County in Clayton has
junction failure issues if a branch extension were now built to Westport.
• There is a building for sale at Natural Bridge just south of where the railroad line
heading towards Westport intersects. It might be worth using the railroad ROW
to go northwest.

Next Steps
Ms. Day polled members to determine the best day of the week for TAC meetings as well
as the best method for notification. Members indicated email as the best method for
sending the meeting notice and the preference for meeting dates was Tuesday,
Wednesday or Thursday. In addition, she requested comments by the end of the week.

Adjournment
The meeting concluded at 12:35 p.m.

Meeting Purpose
The second meeting of the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) served as an overview
to familiarize members with the following information:
• Community Engagement Results To-Date
• Pre-Screening of Preliminary Alternatives
• Next Steps

Introductions
Donna Day, Manager, Transportation Corridor Improvement Group for East-West
Gateway Council of Governments (EWGCOG) opened the meeting by having all
meeting participants introduce themselves. Following the TAC member introductions,
Ms. Day reviewed the agenda and explained the meeting’s purpose.

Community Engagement Results


Paula Hughes with Vector Communications explained the numerous community
engagement activities, focusing on recent community outreach meetings with
neighborhood associations, ward organizations and other groups. A comprehensive list
of all groups involved was provided to the TAC. In addition, the special briefing to
limited- English speaking residents and the first round of open house meetings were
announced. TAC members also received the first study newsletter.

Preliminary Alternatives Evaluation and Screening


Ken Kinney with HNTB provided an overview of the evaluation framework. Mr. Kinney
explained that decisions would need to meet two perspectives. Locally, the goal is to
recommend a preferred alternative to EWGCOG for inclusion into the long-range plan.
On a federal level, the goal is to select the alternative that can move forward to compete
for capital funding distributed under the Federal Transit Administration’s (FTA) New
Starts Program for fixed guideway systems. Evaluation criteria to satisfy both
perspectives were reviewed along with the resulting early screening criteria.
Mr. Kinney reviewed maps of the possible initial preliminary light rail alternatives for
Northside and Southside, plus one Bus Rapid Transit alternative on the Southside only:
• Natural Bridge / North Florissant / 14th (LPA);
• West Florissant/ North Florissant/ 14th
• Natural Bridge / Jefferson / Olive;
• Chouteau / UPRR (LPA);
• Gravois / UPRR;
• Chouteau / Grand / UPRR; and
• Bus Rapid Transit / Market/ UPRR (LPA).

Mr. Kinney reviewed the early evaluation of these alternatives against one another,
focusing on ridership and development opportunities. Russ Volmert with HNTB assisted
in the assessment of potential development areas.

All alternatives identified previously as Locally Preferred Alternatives (LPA) in the 2000
Major Transportation Investment Analyses (MTIAs) were again viewed strong across
various factors, indicating that such options should advance to more detailed design and
evaluation. However, newly added alternatives varied in their assessment.

On the Northside, the West Florissant route was clearly weak in its constraints on right-
of-way (narrow through the third ward), ridership and development opportunities (latter
two factors constrained by substantial stretch of abutting cemeteries and parks).
Meanwhile, the Jefferson/ Olive route did serve select activities (A.G. Edwards and West
Loft District), but had questionable development opportunities. General consensus was
that while light-rail can stimulate development, its role as a catalyst needs to be supported
by other investments and local land-use policies. Hence, it was felt that the Natural
Bridge route had more proven promise with recent developments (North Market Place,
Salisbury Place, etc.) than largely vacant property along Jefferson and Parnell. In
summary, the study team suggested that only the Natural Bridge route should probably be
advanced as a detailed alternative, and TAC members agreed .

On the Southside, the assessment proved more difficult, as the factors were much closer
in their tradeoffs. The Gravois alternative served the most transit-dependents and had the
least mileage for directness. However, this route had the least obvious development
opportunities, despite still being close to several strong residential markets (i.e. Benton
Park, Tower Grove East, etc.). Meanwhile, the South Grand route offered the most
development opportunities, but its constrained right-of-way through the Grand South
Grand area poses some serious tradeoffs on train speed, lane capacity and parking. In
summary, the team suggested all rail alternatives on the Southside might be advanced as
detailed alternatives, and TAC members agreed.

Mr. Kinney then reviewed maps of Downtown concepts and alternatives. Three basic
concepts explored were straight through on one street (14th or Tucker), a couplet or pair
of one-way streets (multiple options one-block apart) and loop (again, a wide array of
street combinations). Upon evaluation, the only strength to straight through options is

Northside-Southside Study TAC Meeting #2 Summary

speed which is good for operations, but fails in comparison on proximity to destinations
and is bad for ridership. Although loops can offer the best proximity, these concepts
generally fail in directness and speed. Thus, couplets appear to best balance operations
and ridership. Upon consideration of various streets and concepts, and key downtown
stakeholder input via a special workshop, two downtown alternatives may be
recommended for further study. The first is a north-south couplet (paired one-way
streets), while the second is an east-west, compact, clockwise loop. Both alternatives
enter and exit Downtown from 14th street from both the Northside and Southside.
• 14th – Clark – 9th/10th (one-way pair) – Convention Plaza – 14th
• 14th – Olive – 6th – Chestnut (contraflow) – 14th

Technical Advisory Committee Questions:

• Q: How is Metro involved at Open Houses?


A: Metro representative(s) will attend to address safety and operations inquiries.
• Q: Are aldermen aware of alternatives? Any “red flags?”
A: All aldermen along alternatives are aware of streets being considered; many
have voiced support for one alternative over another.
• Q: What is the rationale for running along the cemetery?
• A: We reassessed that alignment at the request of several stakeholders, including
aldermen. As noted above, partly because of the bordering cemeteries and park
the alignment has somewhat limited ridership and development potential.
 Q: Why do you want to run in the streets?
• A: Experience in other US cities indicates that street-running rail transit is more
likely to enhance development opportunities, which is one of the key objectives of
the study. In addition, there are few existing rights-of-way that are in suitable
locations. Although there are operational and traffic-impact concerns related to
street running we will use the experience of other systems to address them.
• Q: What are Union Pacific’s design standards on vertical separation?
A: Just met with UP representatives. UP requirements are unknown at this point.
Southside alternatives run alongside a much less active line than the BNSF
alternative in the Metro South Study.
• Q: Is there enough space to run in the right-of-way?
A: Yes, there is enough space in places where there is approximately 100 feet.
• Q: Is it feasible?
A: Not really a question of feasibility. Typically, it is a policy decision.
• Q: Is there a Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) alternative for the Northside?
A: The BRT alternative is carried over from the previous study. There was not a
lot of BRT ridership on the northside when it was studied. The railroads are
against BRT running in their right-of-way for liability reasons.
• Q: How much acreage is needed for a light rail maintenance facility?
A: There is no standard. Three acres were identified in the previous study.
• Q: If needing land for a maintenance facility, then it is not available for other
land use? How do you spur development along the line?
A: That is correct, we do not want to build a facility like the Delmar bus facility.

Northside-Southside Study TAC Meeting #2 Summary


-3-
• Q: When employment and population are linked together, how do you
compensate for both?
A: Once we get beyond the initial screening, we will work with city officials to
develop a detailed plan. If and when we go to FTA, we will have looked at what
is there now, what’s planned and what has happened over 20-30 years. We will
have a hard sell if we say nothing is happening in the area right now.
• Q: The Pruitt-Igo area is the largest vacant area in the City. This is an opportunity
area that the city owns. How does the Natural Bridge alternative help that area?
A: It is a healthy walk from Pruitt-Igo to North Florissant. The current
development is to the east of Pruitt-Igo. This route will sustain development near
North Market and Murphy Park.
• Q: What are the connectivity issues for a north-south route?
A: The destination of both corridors is downtown. We realize that sharp turns
affect speed and will try to have as few turns as possible considering the need to
serve downtown destinations. One of the difficult issues is to serve the shorter
distance market and the longer distance market on the same route.
• Q: What is the turning radius downtown? Will it encroach on existing
development?
A: Standard light rail vehicles can make the kinds of turns required in the
downtown area.
• Q: How many alternatives are moving forward?
A: After reviewing all of the alternatives, we will likely move forward with six.
There will be opportunities to make changes depending on what the public says at
the public meetings June 13 - 15.

Technical Advisory Committee Comments:


• Break out population and employment concentrations as separate factors.
• Directness and proximity appear to conflict with each other as measures.
• Try to educate the public on street running. The word is spreading. Do not use the
word “streetcar” because many are thinking that we are doing the same as being
proposed in the Delmar Loop.
• Brief aldermen of status of alternatives between now and public open houses.

Next Steps
Ms. Day shared the upcoming Open House meetings June 13-15. Brian Horton stressed
that while the team had shared technical factors with the TAC today, the additional factor
of public support would be better known following the open houses. If in the event any
major outcry by City officials or the general public came to light, then the range of
alternatives being advanced could change to reflect public input. Ms. Day then wrapped
up detailing how the team would begin detailed evaluation and design over the summer,
with the next TAC meeting possibly in August.

Adjournment
The meeting concluded at 3:15 p.m.

Meeting Purpose
The third meeting of the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) covered the following
information:
• Community Engagement Results To-Date
• Other Advisory Committees
• Final Alternatives
• Next Steps

Introductions
Donna Day, TCIG Manager, East-West Gateway, opened the meeting by welcoming new
faces. Following the TAC member introductions, Ms. Day reviewed the agenda and
explained the meeting’s purpose.

Community Engagement Results


Paula Hughes with Vector Communications summarized the numerous community
engagement activities that have taken place to-date. In the future, more outreach
meetings are scheduled, and aldermen along final alternatives will be revisited.

Ms. Day reviewed the meetings held to-date and roles of other committees, including the
Policy Advisory and Resource Agency Committees. A copy of the RAC membership
was shared (PAC contacts were previously shared).

Final Alternatives
Ken Kinney, Project Manager, HNTB, summarized the final alternatives moving forward
to evaluation, with emphasis on changes on the Southside.

Mr. Kinney reviewed maps of the original preliminary alternatives, plus one new rail
alternative on the Southside:
• Natural Bridge / North Florissant / 14th (LPA);
• West Florissant/ North Florissant/ 14th;
• Natural Bridge / Jefferson / Olive;
• Chouteau / UPRR (LPA);
• Gravois / UPRR;
• Chouteau / Grand / UPRR;
• Jefferson / I-55 (completely new from last meeting); and
• Bus Rapid Transit / Market/ UPRR (LPA).

Mr. Kinney reviewed the screening of these alternatives, noting which alternatives would
move forward into conceptual engineering and evaluation:
• Natural Bridge / North Florissant / 14th (LPA);
• Chouteau / UPRR (LPA);
• Gravois / UPRR;
• Jefferson / I-55;
• New Bus Rapid Transit alternative (to be developed)

On the Northside, very little changed during the evaluation process. The Florissant
Avenue alternative has low development opportunities and potential for little ridership.
Unlike Florissant, the Natural Bridge/Jefferson alternative serves some employment and
residential centers; however, the alignment misses some of the more recent development
east of Parnell. These two alignments were eliminated from further consideration.

On the Southside, three of the rail alternatives and one busway alternative were impacted
by Union Pacific Rail Road’s (UPRR) position on sharing of the rights-of-way. UPRR’s
requirements for shared use of its right-of-way could result in impacts to numerous
adjacent properties.

While having strong development and destinations, the Grand alternative was eliminated
due to physical constraints south of Arsenal. Additionally, in light of expanded UPRR
design requirements, team members sought out a new Southside rail alternative with
strong development yet separate from the UPRR right-of-way, and found such in a new
Jefferson / I-55 alternative. Like Grand, Jefferson has transit-supportive land uses and
strong development opportunities. Unlike Grand, however, Jefferson is more direct and
has far fewer physical impacts. In summary, the study team recommended that Jefferson
be retained for evaluation in place of Grand as a Southside rail alternative.

As for Bus Rapid Transit, Union Pacific is opposed to any new roadway alongside their
tracks. Also, since the 2000 studies, federally funded BRT projects have become more
“enhanced bus” projects, or BRT lines running on existing streets, as opposed to a new
“guideway,” like that planned in 2000. As a result, the study team will develop a new
BRT alternative that runs on existing streets, like Gravois, as a more realistic BRT
alternative to evaluate and compare with rail alternatives.

Northside-Southside Study TAC Meeting #3 Summary

Engineering Issues
Rick Nannenga, Engineering Task Leader, URS, shared how a key task will be reviewing
critical design areas along the alternatives. Mr. Nannenga reviewed the area surrounding
the Multi-Modal Center as one example. Shared drawings showed the tight squeeze
between existing I-64 ramps on Clark and 14th Streets. The team desires a solution that
will have close proximity of a new at-grade station to the existing below-grade Civic
Center station, while avoiding or mitigating impacts to the existing triangle park,
MetroBus loop, I-64 ramps, 14th Street capacity, Clark Street parking, and City Hall
access. Other examples of critical design areas include the terminus station near
Goodfellow/I-70, Jefferson under I-44, and making the transition from Chouteau to the
UPRR.

Technical Advisory Committee Questions:

• Q: Are you finding political opposition?


• A: We are looking at all the concerns. We are briefing the alderman making sure
they are aware of any new developments. The concerns on the south are about
impacting ridership on the Grand route.
• Q: Is the Union Pacific Rail Road design requirement based on regulation or a
standard applied across the country?
• A: There is not a requirement. In other cities they co-exist.
• Q: Are there traffic criteria for grade separation?
A: Intersection traffic volumes will be documented; Very few intersections
suspected to rival volume of Skinker on Cross County extension.
• Q: What are the development opportunities along Jefferson?
A: Opportunity for larger sites along I-55 at Loughborough and at South
Broadway (Big Lots), plus urban infill along Jefferson, like planned
storefronts/condos across from Benton Park at Arsenal, or similar mixed use
developments on corners of Lafayette.
• Q: What does City Hall think of changing access and parking on Clark?
• A: Will work with City Treasurer’s office. Maybe move lane reduction of
Tucker now at Spruce to one block north at Clark in order to provide new angle
parking on Tucker in front of Police Headquarters.
 Q: How do you go from Broadway to I-55?
• A: Conceptually vacate a little-used, one-block street (Piedmont) south of
Gasconade to make a straight, at-grade transition from South Broadway to
MODOT right-of-way.
• Q: If going to Bayless/I-55, is team aware of proposed Weber/I-55 interchange
improvements and Pace Properties development?
• A: Will work with Tom Curran to learn more on Weber.

Introductions
Donna Day, Manager, Transportation Corridor Improvement Group, opened the meeting
by having all meeting participants introduce themselves. Following the PAC member
introductions, Ms. Day reviewed the agenda and explained that the purpose of the initial
meeting is to review:
• Planning Context
• Community Engagement Results To-Date
• Purpose and Need
• Preliminary Alternatives
• Next Steps

Planning Context
Ms. Day said that the Northside-Southside Study is a continuation of the Major
Transportation Investment Analyses (MTIAs) completed in 2000. The MTIAs and
Northside-Southside Study are conducted under National Environmental Policy Act’s
process so that, if the study moves into the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) phase,
the work can become a part of that phase of the project. This will ensure that the
evaluation of the impacts for the selected alternatives meet the Federal Transit
Administration’s New Starts criteria. Ms. Day explained that the Northside-Southside
Study would update and refine the locally preferred alternatives (LPAs) selected in 2000,
although only for sections of the alignments within the City of St. Louis.

Ms. Day said that the PAC, a representative body with local civic knowledge, is expected
to provide policy assistance throughout the study. During the 18-month study, the PAC
will meet to review the study documents produced at key milestones. Additionally, with
its collective community connections, the PAC will assist the study team by informing
citizens about public feedback opportunities. The PAC members were advised that there
are two other committees (Technical Advisory and Resource Agency) that provide
technical input and review the study process and results.

Community Engagement Results


Laurna Godwin of Vector Communications said that prior to the study committee’s first
meeting numerous community engagement activities were completed. At the onset of the
study, more than 70 stakeholder interviews were conducted with individuals in the study
area, including government officials, and community and business leaders. During the
briefings, stakeholders shared their opinions about:
• Current and future economic development and transit-oriented development;
• The proposed downtown alternative;
• Possible alignments;
• The public engagement process;
• Issues with current streets and roads;
• Ridership; and
• General support for MetroLink.

In summarizing the stakeholder comments, Ms. Godwin cited stakeholder support for the
study its goals and citizens’ involvement. While most stakeholders agreed that light rail
would enhance development, there were some concerns expressed regarding the impact
on northside neighborhoods. Stakeholders suggested that alignments along West
Florissant, Grand, and Gravois be considered, in addition to consideration for crossing I-
70. Many stakeholders expressed concerns regarding funding, noting that there are not
local funds available and that the project needs to be funded at both a regional and federal
level. Some stakeholders also expressed equity concerns in terms of buses versus light
rail and the belief that street-running transit is inferior to below-grade alignments.

Study Scope and Status Report


Ken Kinney of HNTB provided a status report for the study noting that input from the
stakeholder briefings as well as changes of existing and future conditions resulted in the
addition of preliminary alternatives to the LPAs from the MTIAs.

Purpose & Need


Mr. Kinney discussed the transportation-related problems that were identified through the
assessment of existing and future conditions explaining that the goal is to ensure that the
transit alternatives developed are in the context of the identified problems. On both the
Northside and Southside, Mr. Kinney said that transit could address the need to create
sustainable development for such areas as downtown, the near Northside, the Chouteau
Corridor and the Garden District on the Southside, as well as possibly on South Grand
Boulevard and Gravois. The Central West End, Delmar Loop, Civic Center and Emerson
Park were presented as current examples of coordinated transit and policy investments.

Mr. Kinney also discussed how transit could address the need for access to opportunity
including issues such as the mismatch of jobs and workers; lengthening travel times; and
the lack of alternate transportation choices. He discussed an opportunity for a transit and
community investment program such as the Bridges to Work program sponsored by East-

Northside-Southside Study PAC Meeting #1 Summary

West Gateway. Mr. Kinney also touched on constraints due to operating and capital
funding, explaining that federal funding needs to be supported by local funds.

Mr. Kinney reviewed the screening criteria that will be used for selecting LPAs for the
Northside and Southside, which differ from the criteria used for the downtown
alternative. He noted that the criteria would consider both current conditions as well as
projected conditions in 2030.

Other considerations for the development of preliminary alternatives include the


relationship to land-use patterns and transit-oriented development (TOD) potential. Mr.
Kinney reviewed five conceptual light rail alternatives in North and South St. Louis:
• Natural Bridge Avenue (LPA);
• Florissant Avenue;
• Chouteau Avenue/UP;
• Gravois Avenue/UP;
• Chouteau/Grand Boulevard/UP; and,
• Bus Rapid Transit/Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR.)

For the downtown area, numerous alternatives to the downtown loop recommended in the
MTIAs were reviewed.

After reviewing alignments for the Northside and Southside, the following design and
other issues were discussed:
• The location of the I-70 and I-55 termini;
• Using existing or new structures for the Mill Creek Crossing;
• The location of the (UPRR) alignment connections at Chouteau;
• Existing MetroLink;
• TOD; and
• Street running.

Policy Advisory Committee Questions:

• Q: Are the planning documents from studies completed in 1999 and 2000 on the
website?
A: The documents are located on the EWGCOG website under
Northside/Southside Summary Documents – Final Evaluation Report. They can
also be found on the Northside-Southside study web site on the “Links” page
under “MTIAs.”
• Q: The alternatives do not go very far north. Is this because there is not enough
density in that area?
A: Study area is only within City of St. Louis.
• Q: Aren’t most people driving to access transit?
A: Yes, a lot of people will drive to a park-and-ride lot. They will also walk and
bike to transit.
• Q: Aren’t there a number of railroad lines following a similar path of the
alternatives?

Northside-Southside Study PAC Meeting #1 Summary


-3-
A: Existing rail lines are attractive and that is why the initial MetroLink line was
built on them. It was relatively inexpensive impacts were minimal.
Unfortunately, there are very few that are located in the right places.
• Q: How many miles is it from downtown to I-70?
A: It is approximately eight miles.
• Q: How does the proposed cost for rail compare to the ballpark or the Cross
County line (i.e., cost per mile)?
A: The first line was $19 million per mile. The Cross County line approaches
$80 million a mile, partly because of grade separations. The rule of thumb is if
you build above the surface (i.e., elevated) the cost increases 2 to 3 times per
mile. If you build underground, the cost goes up 10 times per mile.
• Q: St. Louis has existing tunnels. Why can’t these be used?
A: There are tunnels under 8th Street and Washington Avenue, which are part of
the initial MetroLink line. The only other existing tunnel is under Tucker. This
tunnel is badly deteriorated and not suitable for transit use.
• Q: What were the screening criteria for the MTIA in 2000?
A: During the selection process for the MTIA in 2000, the study team looked at
ridership, right-of-way impacts, development potential, and grades.
• Q: Did the Florissant alignment have fewer riders when it was evaluated for the
MTIA 2000?
A: Yes, ridership was lower partly because it runs along two large cemeteries and
a major park.
• Q: Is the railroad line near Chouteau abandoned?
• A: No, Amtrak has two trains and Union Pacific runs freight trains on that track.
We propose to put in two new tracks in the right-of-way and share the space.
• Q: Would this require any demolition?
A: No
• Q: Would demolition be required where we connect to the Union Pacific right-of-
way?
A: Possibly. We are currently evaluating alternatives at that location.
• Q: Why isn’t it feasible to use the railroad tracks in the Mill Creek area?
A: It is physically feasible to stay on the rights-of-way and go through Mill Creek
Valley. It would be the faster alternative because it would not stop at all but it
also would not tap into the new developments.
• Q: Would the Gravois alignment provide access for residents to the east who do
not have cars?
A: Yes.
• Q: There is a substantial amount of development on Gravois and the street is not
that wide, is this really an option?
A: We will look at the traffic and the impact of traffic slowing down transit. Yes,
it is problematic. There is also the issue of the complex intersection of
north/south streets.
• Q: Is our signal system suitable for street running?
A: Yes, although there could be improvements to improve light rail speed.
• Q: If the Grand bus route is Metro’s most successful bus line, why spend a lot of
money to replace it with a light rail line?

Northside-Southside Study PAC Meeting #1 Summary


-4-
A: This successful line could spur additional development. It is believed that a
heavily traveled route is a good candidate for a higher capacity vehicle.
• Q: I would argue there is a strong case for the Grand route due to the difficulty in
the city traveling from north to south. If this were the north/south route couldn’t a
passenger travel from one end of town to the other making connections east and
west?
A: We will focus on major markets, the most important of which is downtown St.
Louis, not necessarily designing lines that go north and south.
• Q: Has any consideration been given to the streetcar rails that already exist?
A: The old streetcar rails are not usable.
• Q: Does the signal system have to be synchronized for street running?
A: We can either use signal pre-emption or prioritization.
• Q: Are you considering connecting with the existing MetroLink?
A: Yes. There will be opportunities for, passengers to transfer between systems.
• Q: Must the proposed alignments be within the City of St. Louis?
A: The funding for the study requires that the study area be within the city.
However, we can go beyond the city boundaries if it is necessary to do so to find a
suitable site for a park-and-ride lot at a terminal station.
• Q: When do we evaluate funding feasibility? Where do you get non-federal
dollars? What is the priority and how will this stack against the bridge project
and Highway 40 projects?
A: The funding is largely separate. Typically, the highway dollars are spent
outside of St. Louis and transit is in the core of the city. The East-West Gateway
Council of Government officials determine how these stack up against one
another.
• Q: Isn’t the UP right-of-way largely “invisible” to potential riders?
A: The Union Pacific railroad is industrial, but there is a lot of residential in the
area. The alternative had satisfactory ridership numbers in the previous study.
• Q: There is a lot of development going on Grand, would anything have to be torn
down for the South Grand alternative?
A: No.
• Q: Are you looking at parking and the traffic flow on Grand?
A: Traffic and parking are both serious issues on Grand.
• Q: Have you met with the aldermen?
A: Yes.
• Q: The Union Pacific railroad west of Grand is not used very often and there are
a lot of residences in the area. It seems like this would be one of the most feasible
operations, correct?
A: It was preferred in the MTIA 2000 because of those reasons.
• Q: You have spoken with the City. How do you get support from the County?
A: This study focuses on St. Louis City but the Metro routes extend into the
County. When you consider the Metro South Study, your point is well taken.
• Q: What criteria are used to determine ridership resulting from transit-oriented
development?
A: Riders generated in a half-mile radius around the development.
• Q: Have you looked at the City’s re-development plan?

A: Yes

Policy Advisory Committee Comments:


• Mary Nelson was a guest speaker at the SLACO conference in March. She said a
small, non-profit (Bethel New Life Center) redeveloped an area in Chicago
around a bus stop – it was the ultimate development initiative. Having transit can
enhance an area a lot.
• MetroLink does not take us to some of the City’s best attractions.
• Young people are attracted to diversity, action, a walk-friendly environment and
transit. If we want to attract young people to St. Louis we have to offer these
things.
• In the past, it has looked like big institutions have thrown their weight around.
The perception is not balanced. The [transit] decisions have created cynicism.
• In the past, there would be a public hearing after the engineers did their work in a
vacuum. We want you to reach out to community groups. This is a community
driven process. You are influential within your group. We need the PAC to
reflect community views and build public support. Otherwise, this will just be a
plan without community support.

Next Steps
Mr. Kinney discussed the next steps including:
• Conceptual downtown alignments;
• Critical design options;
• Preliminary analysis and screening;
• Detailed definition of alternatives; and,
• Key meetings.

Ms. Day concluded the meeting by polling members regarding the best meeting day. The
group requested that meeting not be held on Fridays or days when there is a Cardinals
game.

Adjournment
The meeting concluded at 6:15 p.m.

Meeting Purpose
The third meeting of the Policy Advisory Committee (PAC) covered the following
information:
• Community Engagement Results To-Date
• Other Advisory Committees
• Final Alternatives
• Next Steps

Introductions
Donna Day, TCIG Manager, East-West Gateway, opened the meeting by welcoming new
faces. Following the PAC member introductions, Ms. Day reviewed the agenda and
explained the meeting’s purpose.

Community Engagement Results


Paula Hughes with Vector Communications, summarized the numerous community
engagement activities that have taken place to-date. In the future, more outreach
meetings are scheduled, and aldermen along final alternatives will be revisited.

Ms. Day reviewed the meetings held to-date and roles of other committees, including the
Technical Advisory and Resource Agency Committees.

Final Alternatives
Ken Kinney, Project Manager, HNTB, summarized the final alternatives moving forward
to evaluation, with emphasis on changes on the Southside.

Mr. Kinney reviewed maps of the original preliminary alternatives, plus one new rail
alternative on the Southside:
• Natural Bridge / North Florissant / 14th (LPA);
• West Florissant/ North Florissant/ 14th
• Natural Bridge / Jefferson / Olive;
• Chouteau / UPRR (LPA);
• Gravois / UPRR;
• Chouteau / Grand / UPRR;
• Jefferson / I-55 (completely new from last meeting); and
• Bus Rapid Transit / Market/ UPRR (LPA).

Mr. Kinney reviewed the screening of these alternatives, noting which alternatives would
move forward into conceptual engineering and evaluation:
• Natural Bridge / North Florissant / 14th (LPA);
• Chouteau / UPRR (LPA);
• Gravois / UPRR;
• Jefferson / I-55;
• New Bus Rapid Transit alternative (to be developed)

On the Northside, very little changed during the evaluation process. The Florissant
Avenue alternative has low development opportunities and potential for little ridership.
Unlike Florissant, the Natural Bridge/Jefferson alternative serves some employment and
residential centers; however, the alignment misses some of the more recent development
east of Parnell. These two alignments were eliminated from further consideration.

On the Southside, three of the rail alternatives and one busway alternative were impacted
by Union Pacific Rail Road’s (UPRR) position on sharing of the rights-of-way. UPRR’s
requirements for shared use of its right-of-way could result in impacts to numerous
adjacent properties.

While having strong development and destinations, the Grand alternative was eliminated
due to physical constraints south of Arsenal. Additionally, in light of expanded UPRR
design requirements, team members sought out a new Southside rail alternative with
strong development yet separate from the UPRR right-of-way, and found such in a new
Jefferson / I-55 alternative. Like Grand, Jefferson has transit-supportive land uses and
strong development opportunities. Unlike Grand, however, Jefferson is more direct and
has far fewer physical impacts. In summary, the study team recommended that Jefferson
be retained for evaluation in place of Grand as a Southside rail alternative.

As for Bus Rapid Transit, Union Pacific is opposed to any new roadway alongside their
tracks. Also, since the 2000 studies, federally funded BRT projects have become more
“enhanced bus” projects, or BRT lines running on existing streets, as opposed to a new
“guideway,” like that planned in 2000. As a result, the study team will develop a new
BRT alternative that runs on existing streets, like Gravois, as a more realistic BRT
alternative to evaluate and compare with rail alternatives.

Meeting Purpose
As the initial meeting of the Resource Agency Committee (RAC), this meeting served as
a study kick-off to acquaint the members with the following information:
• Planning Context and Project Overview
• Study Area Conditions and Needs
• Street-Running Light Rail Transit (LRT)
• Preliminary Alternatives and Evaluation Criteria
• Next Steps

Introductions
Donna Day, Manager, Transportation Corridor Improvement Group, opened the meeting
by having all meeting participants introduce themselves. A MoDOT representative
offered that Mary Ridgeway had replaced Don Neumann at FHWA. Following the RAC
member introductions, Ms. Day reviewed the agenda and explained the purpose of the
meeting. Joan Roeseler clarified that FTA would be the federal funding agency if the
project moved beyond planning.

Planning Context and Project Overview


Ms. Day began the presentation with aid of a Powerpoint slide show. Ms. Day explained
that the Northside-Southside Study is a continuation of the Major Transportation
Investment Analyses (MTIAs) studies completed in 2000. The MTIAs and Northside-
Southside Study are conducted under the National Environment Policy Act process so
that, if the study moves into the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) phase, the work
will become part of that subsequent phase of the project. Ms. Day explained that the
Northside-Southside Study will update and refine the locally preferred alternatives
(LPAs) selected in 2000, but only Minimum Operating Segments within the City of St.
Louis. The unique funding for the study comes from MoDED transportation tax credits
for distressed communities, limiting the current study to within the qualifying community
of the City of St. Louis. Ms. Day explained how resource agencies were involved in the
MTIAs and then handed off the presentation to Ken Kinney.

Ken Kinney, Project Manager, explained the project schedule, recent community
engagement, and the study areas.

Study Area Conditions and Needs


Ken Kinney shared maps showing land use, population, activity centers, vehicle
availability, income, transit usage, and environmental considerations. Mr. Kinney
discussed the transportation-related problems that were identified through the scoping
process and outlined the purpose and need for both corridors. He explained that both the
Northside and Southside need transit to access opportunity and to help create sustainable
development.

Street-Running LRT
Mr. Kinney shared photos of existing MetroLink and its exclusiveright-of-way and high-
platform light rail vehicles (LRVs). Then, Mr. Kinney showed how other cities have
primarily low-platform LRVs with street-running operations. Pictures shared included
scenes from Portland, Dallas and Minneapolis.

Preliminary Alternatives and Evaluation Criteria


Mr. Kinney showed maps of the five preliminary light rail alternatives and one bus rapid
transit (BRT) alternative:
• Natural Bridge Road (2000 LPA);
• Florissant Avenue;
• Chouteau Avenue/UPRR (2000 LPA);
• Gravois Avenue;
• Grand Boulevard; and
• Bus Rapid Transit/UPRR (2000 LPA).

Mr. Kinney explained how alternatives would be evaluated, using criteria such as
ridership, development opportunities, and cost.

Next Steps
Mr. Kinney said that the next steps would include screening alternatives to a smaller set
of final alternatives. Donna Day explained the constraints for project development
beyond the study, including lack of local funding as match for a FTA New Starts project.
Ms. Day then polled members to determine the preferred methods for distributing future
documents for agency review. Members indicated emailing a linked PDF as the best
method. Two to three future meetings are anticipated throughout the course of the study.

Resource Agency Committee Questions:


• Q: Any projections beyond 2000?
A: Model is being revamped with new projections out to 2035.

Northside-Southside Study TAC Meeting #1 Summary


-2-
• Q: Mapped transit needs appear to be more origin-oriented. What about
destinations?
A: These corridors are more origin-rich. Downtown would become transfer-hub,
if not end-destination for riders.
• Q: Why no BRT on Northside?
A: BRT did not increase projected ridership very much in 2000 MTIA. The
Northside is already well served by bus transit and most of the streets are not
congested.
• Q: Why only UPRR as BRT alternative on Southside?
A: New LRT alternatives suggested by community use varying amounts of
UPRR ROW, while BRT alternative is carried over from 2000 MTIA. The area
is already fairly well served by bus transit.
• Q: Can you use alternate vehicles on freight rail lines, like diesel multiple units
(DMUs)?
A: Yes, if there is a suitable freight railroad line. In this study we are focusing on
LRVs on separate tracks in shared ROW.
• Q: Any other impacts in alternatives evaluation?
A: Numerous measures as in past studies. Just key issues highlighted today.
• Q: Hazardous waste sites appear alongside but not in ROW. Would trains leave
any public or private (RR) ROW?
A: All alternatives attempt to remain within established transportation corridors
(public roadways and private rail corridors).
• Q: What about the SAFETEA-LU money?
A: Recent transportation act included authorizations for these corridors. Unlike
FHWA authorizations, FTA authorizations only recognize a project need.Funding is
not earmarked until allocated under the competitive FTA New Starts program.
• Q: How does Metro South connect?
A: Either just south of River Des Peres (Metro South Orange alternative) or near
Green Park (Blue Alternative). Even if Metro South were high-floor LRV and
Southside low-floor LRV, shared stations in South County along I-55 could have
both high- and low-platforms.

Adjournment
The meeting concluded at 2:05 p.m.

Meeting Purpose
This was the second and final meeting of the Resource Agency Committee (RAC.) The
first meeting, held on June 26, 2006, in Jefferson City, served as a study kick-off to
acquaint the members with study background information. The purpose of this follow up
meeting was to share information on the work that has occurred to date, including the
following key elements:
• Community engagement efforts
• Street-Running Light Rail Transit (LRT) detailed alternatives and evaluation
• Recommended Locally Preferred Alternative
• Next Steps

Introductions
Jerry Blair, Director of Transportation, East-West Gateway, opened the meeting by
asking all in attendance to introduce themselves. Mr. Blair then provided context by
describing the basis for this study. He described the three Major Transportation
Investment Analyses (MTIA) that East-West Gateway conducted in the 1990s: Northside,
Southside and Daniel Boone MTIAs. All three were progressed as Option 1.5 under the
NEPA process - meaning all requirements up to but not including NEPA documents
were completed. He emphasized the inter-agency coordination efforts that took place
during those early planning efforts. The current Northside-Southside study, therefore,
builds upon the earlier completed studies, specifically the locally preferred alternatives
(LPA) for light rail that emerged from those studies. However, because of the funding
made available for this study, only transit improvements for the City of St. Louis may be
studied at this time.
In response to a question as to why other transit options (namely, bus rapid transit) were
not studied or recommended (as they were in the previous studies), Mr. Blair mentioned
that both the City and Citizens for Modern Transit, a major public transit advocacy group,
have indicated a preference for light rail. In addition input from the public on previous
planning studies has illustrated support for light rail over other transit options.

Northside/Soutshide Presentation
Next, Russ Volmert, Deputy Project Manager discussed the study in detail, with the aid
of a PowerPoint presentation and several large display boards. In reviewing the study’s
timeline, Mr. Volmert pointed out that the study is nearing completion, with the draft
final document currently under production and expected by the end of October. He also
pointed out that the recommended Locally Preferred Alternative would be presented to
the East-West Gateway’s Board of Directors for adoption on October 31. Mr. Volmert
then gave a recapitulation of the community involvement efforts undertaken as part of the
study. He mentioned various outreach efforts with elected and appointed officials,
including the various departments of the City of St. Louis: the Mayor’s office, members
of the Board of Aldermen, the Planning Department, and Board of Public Service.
Outreach briefings and presentations were also conducted with the fire and police
departments and members of the development community. However, special attention
was given to the individual communities along the alignments on the Northside and
Southside, including the non-English speaking communities on the Southside. Mr.
Volmert also mentioned the last round of public meetings that were held on September
18, 19 and 20.

Street-Running LRT
Mr. Volmert discussed the various preliminary alignments and the factors, e.g. land use,
urban design, safety, etc. that lead to the selection of the preferred alignments on the
Northside, Downtown and Southside. Various images showing examples of street
running from across the country were shared with the Committee. In addition, computer
generated images of light rail vehicles and tracks in the City of St. Louis were presented,
including how examples of how safety issues can be addressed.

Rick Nannega discussed the engineering and safety elements of the alignments. Using
plan/profile sheets (showing the tracks and stations along the alignment in Northside,
Southside and Downtown), Mr. Nannega pointed out the closure of certain streets, track
placement (raised median on the arterials and flush with the pavement in downtown) as
well as the reconfiguration of the Broadway/Jefferson intersection on the Southside. Mr.
Nannega also discussed the challenges on the Union Pacific alignment, including the
railroad’s right-of-way clearance requirements, property takings and the need to
reconstruction overpasses.

Next, Mr. Vollmert highlighted the key differentiators between the various alignments,
pointing out the advantages of the final alignments that were selected. The final
alignments are:
• Northside: Natural Bridge Avenue/14th Street
• Downtown: 9th Street / 10th Street One-Way Couplet

Northside-Southside Study TAC Meeting #1 Summary


-2-
• Southside: Jefferson Avenue/Interstate 55

Mr. Volmert explained that the three alignments represent a single locally preferred
alternative.

Mr. Volmert presented information on capital costs and ridership. As it relates to


ridership, he explained that the results were preliminary. In response to a question on
operations and maintenance costs, Mr. Nannega indicated that those costs were close to
being completed. However, he roughly estimated an annual expense of between 12 and
13 million. Fare box revenue, explained Mr. Blair, would only cover about 20 percent of
operations costs. Further, maintenance costs will have to reflect either the expansion of
Metro’s current facility at Ewing St. or the construction of a new facility.

Next Steps
Both Mr. Blair and Mr. Volmert explained that the next logical steps, following adoption
of the LPA would be the Draft Environment Impact Statement and (perhaps concurrently)
the FTA’s New Starts Application, flowed by preliminary engineering. However, at this
time, no funding has been identified to allow these next steps. Mr. Blair also discussed
the current discussions underway in St. Louis Co. to seek voter approval of a sales tax
increase to fund Metro expansion into the County. He explained that, typically, the
source of funding has and will dictate what is built, when and where.

Adjournment
The meeting concluded at 2:30 p.m.

Northside-Southside
Transit Improvements Study

Final June 2006 Open Houses’


Comment Summary Report

Submitted By:
Vector Communications and Howard/Stein-Hudson
July 19, 2006
Executive Summary

Sponsored by East-West Gateway Council of Governments, Metro and the Missouri Department of
Transportation, the “Northside-Southside Transit Improvements Study” is an 18-month planning study,
looking at light rail and other transit improvements for sections of North St. Louis City, South St. Louis
City and downtown. The study will result in the recommendation of a locally preferred alternative for the
Northside, Southside and downtown areas, including station locations and design, costs and benefits.

This report documents the public input gathered during the study’s first round of public meetings held in
June 2006. There were two sets of meetings. One set was for the general public and involved three open
houses on three consecutive days. The other set was for limited-English speaking people and involved
two meetings on the same day at separate locations. Similar information was presented at each set of
meetings. In total, 198 people attended both sets of meetings.

The primary focus of all the meetings was to present the eight preliminary alternatives identified to best
meet the City of St. Louis’ transit needs. In addition, attendees were asked to comment on why transit
improvements are needed and on what criteria they thought is most important in evaluating the
preliminary alternatives.

Public Open Houses Summary

At the open houses for the general public, the preliminary alternatives that received the most positive
responses were: Natural Bridge Avenue on the Northside, the Olive/Chestnut Single Track Loop
downtown and the Chouteau Avenue to Grand Avenue alignment on the Southside. Although they
received negative responses as well, respondents felt these preliminary alternatives provided development
opportunities and served the most people.

Two of the eight preliminary alternatives received the most negative responses from participants as
compared to positive responses – Bus Rapid Transit along the Union Pacific Right-of-Way on the
Southside and the Florissant Avenue alignment on the Northside. Most participants noted disliking the
Bus Rapid Transit alternative because it was bus rapid transit and not light rail transit. Respondents noted
disliking the Florissant Avenue alternative because they felt it was remote and would not serve populated
areas.

The remaining three alternatives, Chouteau Avenue to Union Pacific Right of Way and Gravois Avenue
to Union Pacific Right-of-Way on the Southside and the 9th /10th One-way Couplet downtown received a
variety of responses both positive and negative. Respondents had a number of questions about the
location of the alternatives, potential ridership and availability of existing service.

The majority of respondents (85%) indicted that sustainable development, access to opportunity and
safety and security were correctly identified as reasons for transit improvements within the City of St.
Louis.

Attendees were also asked to identify the top two criteria for screening the preliminary alternatives. On
the Northside and Southside, the top two screening criteria are sustainable development opportunities
(49%) and population (47%) considerations. The top two screening criteria selected for the downtown are
ridership (75%) and development (48%).

2
The majority of the people who attended the open houses were local residents and/or frequent travelers.
Open house participants were made aware of the open houses through receiving information via email,
viewing posters placed on buses or hearing a TV or radio advertisement.

Overall respondents felt that the open houses were very useful, well organized and well worth attending.

Limited-English Speaking Meeting Summary

At the meetings for limited-English speaking people, the alternative that received the most positive
responses was the Chouteau to Grand Avenue one on the Southside. Respondents liked this alternative
because of its close proximity to St. Louis University, to work and to area grocery stores.

As for the reasons for transit improvements, respondents agreed that study team had correctly identified
them as sustainable development, access to opportunity and safety and security. The top two criteria that
respondents selected for evaluating the Northside and Southside preliminary alternatives were
employment (26%) and population (26%) considerations. For downtown, the top two criteria selected
were development (32%) and ridership (29%).

Public Open Houses


Three general public open houses were held from June 13-15, 2006. The Northside open house took place
on Tuesday, June 13, 2006, from 5:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m. at the Herbert Hoover Boys and Girls Club. The
downtown open house took place on Wednesday, June 14, 2006, from 3:30 p.m.-6:00 p.m. at the
Downtown St. Louis Partnership. The Southside open house took place on Thursday, June 15, 2006,
from 5:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m. at the Missouri Botanical Garden’s Monsanto Center. All three open houses
contained the same content, and the same PowerPoint presentation was shown at each one.

In total, 157 people attended the public open houses. Upon arrival, meeting participants were asked to
indicate on a study area map their residence and place of employment. In total, the meeting participants
identified more than 90 residences and 75 employment locations within the study area.

At each open house there were eight information stations focusing on the following topics: 1) Northside-
Southside Study Overview; 2) Understanding Transit: 3) Planning History: 4) Study Area Existing
Conditions; 5) Purpose and Need: 6) Evaluation Criteria; 7) Preliminary Alternatives: and, 8) Public
Involvement and Next Steps. Study team members were available at each station to talk with participants
and to answer questions.

A comment form was distributed to meeting participants as they entered the open house meetings.
Attendees were asked to complete the comment form on-site after they visited all the stations. Seventy-
seven meeting participants completed comment forms and 13 were submitted by mail or e-mail. Meeting
participants were asked to comment on the transit needs identified for the study area; the screening
criteria identified for the evaluation of the preliminary alternatives; preliminary light rail and other rapid
transit routes; and, the public involvement activities.

Comments

The information provided below follows the order of the comment form. A copy of the comment form is
attached as Appendix A. Of the 157 people who attended the open houses 77 (49%) completed comment
forms. Please note that there are not an equal number of responses for each question because some
attendees did not complete all questions.

Transit Needs

At station #5, the reasons for transit improvements within the City of St. Louis were identified as
“sustainable development, access to opportunity and safety and security.” Meeting participants were
asked to circle “yes” or “no” if the study team had correctly identified their area’s transit needs.

An overwhelming 85% of those who responded to this question selected “yes”, indicating that their area’s
transit needs had been correctly identified. Fifteen percent of respondents selected “no” indicating that
their area’s transit needs had not been correctly identified.

Respondents who answered “no” to this question felt that transit improvements should be close to current
population and activity centers. These respondents felt that there needs to be more of an effort to serve
the transit dependent.

A few respondents also noted that they do not live in the area and would not ride the routes very often.
Thus, that is why the study team had not identified their transit needs. Appendix B lists respondents’
verbatim comments regarding transit needs.

Screening Criteria

At station #6, screening criteria was identified for the Northside and Southside and downtown. Meeting
participants were asked to check the two most important criteria to consider when evaluating the different
areas.

Respondents could choose employment concentrations, population concentrations, transit-dependent


market, sustainable development opportunities or capital cost. Of those who responded, 49% felt
sustainable development opportunities were most important when evaluating the Northside and Southside
areas. Population concentrations (47%), employment concentrations (44%) and transit-dependent
markets (44%) were also identified as important by respondents.

Preliminary Alternatives

At station #7, meeting participants viewed the preliminary alternatives for the study area. Tow
alternatives were presented for the Northside, including the Natural Bridge Avenue alternative, which
came out of previous planning studies known as the Major Transit Improvements Analyses or MTIAs.
Four alternatives were presented for the Southside, including the Chouteau Avenue to the Union Pacific
Right-of-Way, which came out of the MTIAs. There were two alternatives for the downtown area. They
were asked to share their thoughts about each alternative. More than 350 verbatim comments were
recorded. The table below summarizes those views. Appendix C lists respondents’ verbatim comments
regarding the preliminary alternatives. Please note that when they commented, not all respondents
commented about the alternative itself.

Northside – Natural Bridge Avenue

Sixteen of the general comments received on the Natural Bridge Avenue alternative stated that the
alternative is good. Only one general comment expressed that the alternative is not good.

Respondents felt that the Natural Bridge Avenue alternative would serve a larger population area than
many of the other alternatives. Several respondents noted that the street was wide and ideal for a light rail
route. Respondents also felt that this route had great economic development potential.

Northside – Florissant Avenue

Out of the general comments received on this alternative, five stated that the alternative is good and ten
stated that the alternative was not good.

Respondents felt there would not be enough ridership to support this alternative. Many noted that the
alternative would mostly serve cemeteries and parks and not populated areas. Several respondents also
noted that the corridor may be too narrow for street-running light rail.

Southside – Chouteau Avenue to Union Pacific Right-of-Way

Of the general comments received on the Chouteau Avenue to Union Pacific Right-of-Way alternative,
nine stated that the alternative is good and only one stated that the alternative is not good.

A number of respondents felt that this alternative was the most economical and would run through several
heavily populated areas. Many respondents noted that the alternative would also travel through older
commercial and industrial areas but they were hopeful that it would help spur economic development and
redevelopment in those areas.

Southside – Gravois Avenue to Union Pacific Right-of-Way

Of the general comments received on the Gravois Avenue to Union Pacific Right-of-Way alternative ten
stated that the alternative is good and three stated that the alternative is not good.

Respondents felt that this alternative provided direct connections to downtown and existing bus routes. It
was noted that this alternative could really encourage commercial development and help the Southside.

Those who opposed the alternative were concerned about traffic problems and difficult intersections and
felt that the area was already well served by buses.

Southside – Chouteau Avenue to Grand Avenue

Of the general comments that were received on the Chouteau Avenue to Grand Avenue alternative,
twelve stated that the alternative is good and seven stated that the alternative is not good.

Respondents who felt the alternative was not good were concerned about traffic problems and narrow
roadways. It was stated that this area is already crowded and there is not enough room for street-running
light-rail.

Some respondents felt this was a great opportunity to take advantage of the existing development and
population densities. This area is already a high-density area for pedestrians.

Southside – Bus Rapid Transit along Union Pacific Right-of-Way

Of the general comments received seven stated that the alternative is good and twenty-five stated that the
alternative is not good.

A large number of respondents voiced that they wanted to see light rail transit not more buses in this area.
One respondent noted that buses are important but not in the place of light rail transit.

Respondents felt that this alternative would not support development or redevelopment.

Downtown – 9th/10th One-Way Pair Couplet

Of the general comments received on the 9th/10th One-Way Pair Couplet alternative, twelve stated that the
alternative is good and eight stated that the alternative is not good.

Draft Northside-Southside June 2006 Open Houses Comment Summary Report

Respondents who opposed this alternative felt that the proposed line was too much like the existing
MetroLink.

Respondents who supported the alternative liked how it would provide service to the downtown and other
key locations. Many felt it would help encourage additional redevelopment and growth downtown.

Downtown - Olive/Chestnut Single Track Loop

Of the general comments received on the Olive/Chestnut Single Track Loop alternative, eighteen stated
that the alternative is good and seven stated that the alternative is not good.

Many respondents felt that the alternative would promote development and redevelopment opportunities.
Others preferred the alternative because would serve more of the downtown area.

Respondents who did not favor the alternative felt that the area was already pretty well served by transit
to begin with. Respondents were also concerned about light rail competing with traffic and the narrow
streets.

Public Involvement

The public involvement questions asked participants to describe themselves and how they learned about
the open houses. Participants were also asked to rate the open house according to the information
provided and the competence of the study team. Overall, the majority of the meeting participants were
residents. More than half of the meeting participants indicated they saw a poster on a transit vehicle,
heard a TV or radio advertisement or received an email message. A little less than a quarter of the
meeting participants were advised of the meetings through a community organization. More than half of
the respondents felt the information presented at the open house was “very useful” while another 47
percent considered it “useful”. Two-thirds of the respondents (66%) rated the study team as being “very
helpful” while more than half of the respondents felt the Open House was well worth attending. Below
are the results. Appendix D outlines respondents’ additional comments.

Limited-English Speaking Meetings


Prior to the public open houses, study team members met with limited-English speaking residents,
particularly Latinos, Bosnians, Africans (Ethiopian Amharic and Somali Bantu) and Vietnamese. The
number of new immigrants and limited-English speaking people is growing in the City of St. Louis,
particularly on the Southside and particularly among Latino and Bosnian populations. Thus, the study
team felt it was important to engage these groups since many are also highly dependent on transit.

There were two meetings for limited-English speaking people on Sunday, June 11, 2006. The first
meeting was at St. Cecilia’s Catholic Church, the religious home that the St. Louis Archdiocese has
identified for Latino Catholics. A translator was present to interpret the speaker’s presentation. The other
meeting was held later the same day at the International Institute, which provides a variety of services for
newly arrived immigrants and New Americans. At this location, the presentations were conducted
simultaneously for Bosnian, Hispanic, African and Vietnamese immigrants. Translators for each
language assisted presenters with interpretation of information as well as completion of language specific
comment forms. In total, 41 people attended the two meetings.

Transit Needs

The reasons identified for transit improvements within the City of St. Louis were “sustainable
development, access to opportunity and safety and security.” Meeting participants were asked to circle
“yes” or “no” if we correctly identified their area’s transit needs.

All of the respondents indicted that sustainable development, access to opportunity and safety and
security were correctly identified as reasons for transit improvements within the City of St. Louis.

Screening Criteria

Screening criteria was identified for the Northside and Southside and Downtown alternatives. Meeting
participants were asked to check the two criteria they think are most important to consider when
evaluating the Northside and Southside areas.

The top two criteria selected for screening the preliminary alternatives on the Northside and Southside are
employment (26%) and population (26%) considerations.

The top two criteria selected for downtown are development (32%) and ridership (29%).

Preliminary Alternatives

The transit alternatives were presented for the study area. Meeting participants were asked to share their
thoughts about each alternative. More than 90 verbatim comments were recorded. . It should be noted
that Limited-English speaking meeting participants primarily reside in South St. Louis. Consequently, it
is not a surprise that their comments regarding alternatives serving North St. Louis were related more to
transit need and not the actual alignment. The table below summarizes those views.

Northside – Natural Bridge Avenue

Of the general comments received six supported the alternative. Respondents feel there is a transit
dependent population that would be better served on Natural Bridge. They also noted that there is plenty
of land for construction and that Natural Bridge alternative would provide a good link from the inner city
to the highway.

Northside – Florissant Avenue

Of the general comments received only one meeting participant was not in support of this alternative.
The respondent questioned if this alternative is feasible.

Southside – Chouteau Avenue to Union Pacific Right-of-Way

Of the general comments received, most respondents were positive about the alternative noting that it
serves the Latino community, Some questioned whether or not this alternative was the most feasible
alternative to build due to cost.

Southside – Gravois Avenue to Union Pacific Right-of-Way

Of the general comments received, most respondents expressed that this alternative was the best one for
the Southside. Respondents liked Gravois because it has a wide street, the population is dense and there
is an opportunity to reduce vehicular traffic. Respondents also felt it would be the least complicated to
develop.

Southside – Chouteau Avenue to Grand Avenue

Of the general comments received only one respondent expressed that the alternative is not good. The
respondent felt that Grand is too narrow. Respondents in favor of Grand noted the access to St. Louis
University; to work and area grocery stores.

Southside – Bus Rapid Transit along Union Pacific Right-of-Way

Of the general comments received respondents favored this alternative. One respondent felt that it would
be a short-term solution while another felt if it were built it would meet the least resistance.

Downtown – 9th/10th One-Way Pair Couplet

Of the general comments that were received all of the respondents liked this alternative. One of the
respondents liked this option because it is not as close to the existing MetroLink.

Downtown – Olive/Chestnut Single Track Loop

Of the general comments received only one respondent was not in favor of this alternative. The
respondent felt it is too close to the stadium and duplicates service to the area that is already served by
MetroLink.

Public Involvement

The public involvement questions asked participants to describe themselves and how they learned about
the meetings. Participants were also asked to rate the meetings according to the information provided.

Appendix B: Verbatim Written Comments on Question 1, Transit Needs
1 That would be all the reasons that make ridership high and lasting.
2 Yes, basically I am concerned about the security measures.
Yes, finally a public transportation system that can be used by the public that will need it
3 most over the next 30 years.
The above comment is bothersome. I like the sustainable development part but not the rest.
4 It makes it seem as if without transit the city has no security or safety.
5 Anything that promotes the development of the city is great.
6 Very much interested in the development of the Natural Bridge Line.
I think the station location and access routes need to be as close as possible to current and
7 future activity centers.
Yes and no, I may ride this route but probably not very often. Would prefer light rail run in
8 my area.
9 We do not live or work in the city, so it doesn't apply.
10 Access for transit dependent market critical.
These lines in the city should be underground rather than routes down the street. There are
11 safety issues when running trains in traffic and pedestrians getting off the trains.
Stations should remain above ground. Underground stations undermine "safety and
12 security" of the alternatives.
Somewhat would be a better statement. Would like to see focus and care to making sure
13 current communities receive priority. I also might be reading this wrong.
Why are you bringing everybody downtown? We need more north and south rapid transit.
14 Majority of the northside does not work downtown they work south and in the suburbs.
15 I think that this is a good thing for the City.
At first I did not completely understand why they chose the areas they did. Then in the
16 presentation I learned that those places that they would put light rail were very prosperous
17 But safety and security will probably never happen.
18 I believe you all did what is needed.
19 Also, alternatives to automobile options
20 Very important
To a degree, safety and security are impacted by development but the way in which
individual stations are monitored also impacts sense of security and safety. Example: On-
21 site policemen or guards.
22 With an emphasis on access to opportunity.
It is important to provide transportation means to many diverse areas of the city due to the
23 irregular layout of the City. Also, you need to encourage redevelopment.
To move people toward transit as an option. Transit dependent markets - Is this not where
24 we want to end up?
25 I would change the word sustainable to attract new residents and riders.
Most people move to Chicago after college because of the transportation and great
26 downtown. That is what St. Louis needs to do.
27 Typical planning pabulum, but it will do.
The success of any rail line depends on discretionary travel. There is none to be expected on
the northside (past Crown Candy). Shouldn't this also be reflected in your reasons and thus
28 the likelihood of such private real estate investment?
29 Sustainable development would also help weave together neighborhoods.
Mostly, It's unfortunate that funding constraints limit a configuration which would benefit
30 more people along its entire length.

Appendix C: Summary of Written Comments on Question 3, Preliminary
Alternatives
Northside
Natural Bridge Avenue

Generally think alternative is good: 16


Generally think alternative is not good: 1

Oppose the alternative for stated reasons:


I don't think Florissant north of Natural Bridge is feasible, given the density of existing housing stock

Support the alternative for stated reasons:


• I think this is the better of the two. Hits employment & ridership (& their potential) well.
• Keeping the line on Natural Bridge as this area has the development.
• Best idea for north side since it goes through the middle of population.
• I think the Natural Bridge Ave. would be more feasible. First because of the street size, the
accessibility to connect with other bus/subway lines, neighborhood participation, businesses both
existing & developing ones and just using public transit versus automobiles.
• To service the most people I think the Northside - Natural Bridge would be the best.
• I can see that Natural Bridge might provide less disruption and implement the system. Presently
better bus service is needed.
• I think it would be very convenient to this highly populated area to be able to have a closer safer
mode of transportation than we have at present. Time saving, convenient and safer.
• Best route for population.
• This alternative makes the most sense in terms of population density and the eventual "cross
platform" connection to a Daniel Boone route to Chesterfield.
• Preferred to Florissant. Serves population areas.
• Preferred. Serves more of the population.
• Much better connection with north - south bus routes
• I totally agree with Natural Bridge route over W. Florissant. I drive on both roads daily. There
are many more people up & down Natural Bridge versus W. Florissant.
• While the impact on local community would be a concern, this is the best option due to ridership.
• Best choice - development opportunities & ridership make this a smart investment.

Considerations/suggestions:
• Better for community access. Poses serious safety issues.
• This is the best option. Please consider underground stations at the busiest corners. Do not short-
change the Northside transit facilities. Consider extending study area into Jennings. Doesn't it
also qualify as a distressed area?
• To be an effective system, I believe that all these areas should be linked to create a transportation
system that riders can easily use. The transport of the passengers should be fast enough to allow
them to reach their destinations within a reasonable time frame.
• You can do a combo of the two. Up Natural Bridge until about Union & the cut over to west
Florissant.
• Part of the reason that I can't catch the bus on Natural Bridge is because of the area it's linked to.
The most significant part of this project to me will be the outcome and change of the
neighborhoods involved.
• Do not extend onto Riverview. See attached information & map for my comments.
• I think the Federal office complex and Union 70 center are essential destinations for any
Northside alternatives.

• Focus on TOD with developers, neighborhood organizations with metro/HNTB. Consider
limiting gentrification effects. Market rate/mixed income/affordable housing/bicycle & scooter
parking. Safety & security (bullet proof glass at stations).
• Fine as far as Salisbury and a P & R for McKinley Dr. no I-70 traffic, but unnecessary further
along N.B. why? The same can be done from the M.L. main using the TRRA tracks and a
transfer connection at Delmar. (This would not involve signals on mainline as separate track).

Question the alternative:


Maybe too close to existing line?

Oppose the alternative due to concern about street-running light rail:


Least feasible it being in the middle of the city may cause lots of chaos.

Support the alternative with street-running light rail:


• I noticed that the Natural Bridge alternative would be excellent - street much wider and cars could
continue on each side of street.
• Good wide street.
• The best. Nice that it can attract riders from both sides of the track. Wide road would be ideal
for a track for this system.
• I believe the Natural Bridge route is a better route to go with because of the space on both sides of
Natural Bridge. We have the space to do it. Let's do it please.
• Natural Bridge's width makes an ideal route for center of street R.O.W. This route would serve a
very public transport-dependent population.

Support the alternative for its economic development potential:


• This is the preferred route. Allows more TOD.
• Best alternative for redevelopment and serving transit-dependant populations
• Northside Natural Bridge Ave. good idea highly populated. Ridership would be good. Just OK
for developing cause area is already developed.
• Prefer this because of development opportunities. Ties better to current populations versus
benefiting commuters.
• The better of the two options, this option has the greater potential for serving the existing
community and spurring development.
• Greater development opportunities.
• Could be the configuration with the most economic potential.

Northside
Florissant Avenue

Generally think alternative is good: 5


Generally think alternative is not good: 10

Oppose the alternative for stated reasons:


• On a road to basically nowhere. Connecting at Natural Bridge is best.
• Not the best because ends up near cemeteries.
• Won't have as great of an impact as Natural Bridge.
• Better for visitors to cemeteries. Poses lesser service to residents.
• This is not a good option. North of Palm to about I-70, N. Florissant is way too narrow. Also,
nobody lives in a cemetery. I oppose this option. Although it is more direct, it would serve far
fewer people.
• Stick to Natural Bridge. Cemeteries & large spars populated industrial areas to east will not give
as many riders.
• This route is too far north.
• Too many cemeteries and parks limits TOD and not central to the area.
• Would have lower ridership.
• Not a good idea, too many non-populated areas. The transit system would run through - But very
good if the transit system in the future will run into north county areas.
• Not worried that cars would be limited, but worried the density & ridership is not there. Would
not prefer this.
• By the cemeteries where dead people lie? It might be good for tourists because those cemeteries
are beautiful.
• Route is all cemeteries.
• Sounds good with an ease of construction, but the low ridership, the narrow streets in the Hyde
Park "hood" and no place to put any "park and ride" lots, unless it was extended on west
Florissant to Northland shopping center.
• Not a good idea, a lot less populated are along the cemeteries.
• The cemetery concentration on the route minimizes the development options and serves a smaller
population concentration.
• 2 cemeteries, 1 park. Not enough ridership, not enough development.
• Would primarily cater to commuters to downtown, but limited due to feasible destinations.
• Less ridership.
• Due to the parks - development potential seems limited.

Support the alternative for stated reasons:


• Most feasible alternative less disruptive because its end of line is next to highway 70.
• Florissant Avenue's strength is being a more northward transport backbone. The area is also ripe
for redevelopment.

Considerations/suggestions:
• Natural Bridge first, then connect that line with the Florissant Ave.
• Preferred only for speed to N. County P & R and scenery. To make up for missed Natural Bridge
employers, use the line suggested above. TRRA from main line.

Question the alternative:


• Not bad but not sure if the ridership would be high enough.
• Narrow streets in many areas.

Oppose the alternative due to concern about street-running light rail:


Draft Northside-Southside June 2006 Open Houses Comment Summary Report
18
• I would consider this my second choice as it would involve securing property for expansion of the
street.
• Too hard to come thru narrow area of Florissant.
• Too narrow.
• Why serve the cemetery corridor? And face the challenge of narrow streets?

Support the alternative with street-running light rail:


• The roads seem wide enough; in general for all of the alternatives I am concerned that the line
may make it more difficult to cross streets (like MetroLink on parts of Blvd.)
• Good wide street. Development potential. Need more detail about stations, etc.

Support the alternative for its economic development potential:


I think the cemeteries would be a great tourist destination, their accessibility from downtown would bring
visitors (and development) to this area.

Southside
Chouteau Avenue to UP Right-of-Way

Generally think alternative is good: 9


Generally think alternative is not good: 1

Oppose the alternative for stated reasons:


• It seems to be missing population centers.
• Weak for people access.
• Anything on Chouteau is a waste. Existing MetroLink is only two blocks north and it's mostly
industrial/SLV. Don't bother with this option. SLV has access to Grand MetroLink station.
• Using Chouteau seems to parallel the existing line too closely. New line should not run so near
existing outside of downtown.
• Not really necessary with the bus service on Grand.
• Worried about this alternative favoring commuters over city residents. Do not want a line
separate like current MetroLink.
• Too industrial.
• Not direct enough to matter. Stations could have negative impacts since they might not have
ideal locations using the UP RR intersections.
• Fewer opportunities for development.
• Chouteau corridor is heavily industrialized or full of vacant, formerly industrial sites. Rail
R.O.W. might have very little economic or development impact.
• Good because near Forest Park & Tower Grove and cuts through south side.

Support the alternative for stated reasons:


• I think that this line suggestion covers a bigger radius of downtown when considering where the
majority of people work.
• Would interfere the least with existing traffic.
• Best option for ridership. Increased future development in Shaw, Chouteau, etc. Could serve
existing transit-dependent users best.
• This would take me almost door to door from home to work downtown. Also using existing right
of way seems more efficient.
• Seems to be the most economical but would serve the need for speed north to south, rather than
serving the population centers of south city.
• Think this is best use of existing resources. Possibly least expensive and runs thru most heavily
populated area of potential riders.
• If not along I-55 or Broadway, this is the best to choose for south city. Some areas, especially
between Bates & Carondelet, are mostly residential. Should be no problem buying some business
property to make parking lots for stations.
• Acceptable, depending on where the stations would be.

Considerations/suggestions:
• Should definitely do Chouteau, all the way to city limit! Maybe it can connect to Maplewood
someday.
• Another option that would appeal to commuters with limited destinations along the rail road
track. Bus connectivity would be important.
• Light industrial corridor ripe for redevelopment mostly only one - two blocks wide. Pedestrian
corridors thru light industrial can be established. Purchasing run down light industrial for "park
& ride" cheaper than commercial/residential displacement. Already have "park & ride" at Shaw
& Vandeventer.
• Why Chouteau Ave? Best to realign existing train zone from Grand to Tucker. Put stations at
areas that serve Chouteau. This area would have transit to other links East, West & Northwest at

Draft Northside-Southside June 2006 Open Houses Comment Summary Report


20
Grand. Stays on existing right-of-ways - speed of transit - promotes ridership - make Grand
station an outer city HUB.
• Second best. Would improve significantly if it got closer to the Barnes campus, both to serve a
major employment center and to provide connections to points west using existing MetroLink and
bus lines.
• Why not DMU service?

Question the alternative:


Likely cheap to build & fast to the end line station. Seemingly difficult to connect with businesses.
Would likely change the areas closest to the stations?

Support the alternative for its economic development potential:


• I like this best. Gets people to employment or potential employment well.
• This would be number one. On the U.P. R.O.W. the speed of trains would be great! TOD
development will explode once this line is built!
• While the rail travels through industrial/commercial zoned areas - there are great opportunities for
development. Further, those areas are surrounded by densely populated residential areas.
• The U.P. R.O.W. would provide necessary speed and cut across many existing bus routes.
Industry is dying in America. In the future, these areas will be abandoned and in need of
reinvestment. This would open up LARGE areas for NEW INVESTMENT! Plan for tomorrow,
not for today!!!
• Good route. Perfect building block. Many under-used commercial properties along alignment.
Ripe for redevelopment.

Southside
Gravois Avenue to UP Right-of-Way

Generally think alternative is good: 10


Generally think alternative is not good: 3

Oppose the alternative for stated reasons:


• Transit riders are served by buses well. They can commute well.
• Many businesses and potential ridership, but the line would have difficulty with all the
interchanges.
• Existing strong ridership of Gravois. Multiple express buses. Strong Gravois line. Option "C"
creates new opportunities - this just supplements existing service.
• Ignores heavily populated central, south-central city. However, could provide much needed TOD
to southeast city.

Support the alternative for stated reasons:


• This could work. Only problem is that a street line is already inherently slower so almost all
U.P., although circuitous would be made up with higher speeds.
• Like this better. Closer to Grand than "C".
• Probably the best Southside option. Would hit many areas that would provide high ridership.
Traffic would be a concern, ie: how fast would it be?
• Best of the bunch. Provides a direct connection to downtown for county dwellers and should spur
redevelopment along Gravois. Would be improved by a rail connection to the new Shrewsbury
station as well as an extension further south.
• Best choice! Good East/West bus connections. Gravois is ready to redevelop - low risk & lots of
nearby neighborhoods would benefit.
• This section is providing convenience for people to go to work and grocery stores every day.
• This serves the Latino community.
• This one seems to be a very good one.
• Most accessible and least complicated.
• I believe that this alternative would be the best for the Southside as it covers the most populated
area.
• I like the fact it leads straight to downtown and has enough space for the Metro; big population.
• Because Gravois is a wide street, building tracks would not contribute to the shrinkage of the
driving area, and also because along this route, the population is dense, the car traffic would be
reduced as well.

Considerations/suggestions:
• This is probably the best option of all! However, Gravois is kind of narrow from Grand to
Meramec. Could consider routing via much wider S. Grand and Chippewa West to Uprow. Lots
of people do now ride buses on these corridors already to get downtown. Need underground stop
at Grand & Gravois.
• I prefer this route but needs to be underground. Allows more TOD.
• Better you don't always have to have park & ride … to make a line successful. This is a heavily
populated area.
• I think the high ridership on Gravois may be better served by express bus lanes.
• Diagonal large intersections confusing.
• Gravois Ave. will require lots of traffic realignment = high cost!
• Complicated intersections should not be an issue. That happens everywhere in Europe.

Oppose the alternative due to concern about street-running light rail:


• This route seems too crowded for Gravois Avenue.
• Prefer this because it will change the way Gravois develops and will greatly reduce car traffic.
Draft Northside-Southside June 2006 Open Houses Comment Summary Report
22
• This loses the Hill since it's more out of the way to pick it up then to drive downtown. Also
dense traffic would slow the train significantly.
• Not bad, but having to cross a busy street to board a train doesn't appeal.
• Good area to serve but I fear that traffic density will slow development of this route.
• Won't work - too congested.

Support the alternative with street-running light rail:


• Wide street - near population & businesses
• Gravois route from downtown is a nice direct route going south. Gravois is wide enough to
handle the trains. To answer the concern of all major intersections you go underground or above
the major intersection.
• Again, economically a more viable option due to size of highway. Also serves a core
concentration. The right-of-way issue is important as a consideration, but I don't think it should
eliminate this option. Would be a great boost to economize development along this route.

Support the alternative for its economic development potential:


• Going down Gravois serves a large population base. Gravois, while a large auto-oriented street,
has many large opportunities on or within a few blocks of the street.
• Could really help develop Southside.
• This would encourage reinvestment on Gravois and hopefully promote commercial development.
• Despite the intersection obstacles - this is just beginning to be built. I think it would create a lot
of development & draw white-collar riders.

Southside
Chouteau to Grand

Generally think alternative is good: 12


Generally think alternative is not good: 7

Oppose the alternative for stated reasons:


• Nice but poses new traffic problems.
• Grand is too narrow & too busy now, and just put in planters down the middle on same blocks.
• Do not prefer because this can be serviced by buses and light rail is too heavy for this area. Buses
or streetcars would be better.
• On Chouteau Ave. too close to existing alignment.
• I think this would be too disruptive to the south Grand area (I live there), without the added
ridership of the Gravois alternative.
• Grand has too many restrictions and already has highest bus route ridership. Due to the parks,
development potential seems limited.
• Grand is too narrow.

Support the alternative for stated reasons:


• Good use of rail tracks. Hits backside of Tower Grove Park.
• I like this because it is more pedestrian-friendly, lots of places to go to and lots of people live
around there. St. Louis U, Tower Grove Park, S. Grand restaurants.
• Best option for ridership. High density area for pedestrians. Does it best serve existing transit
dependent users?
• Capitalizes on existing development & population densities. Will be successful. Even in the
"tight" portion it will slow traffic benefiting businesses and pedestrians.
• I like this option provided that the proposed rail line on Grand does not have traffic problems.
• Very agreed because the MetroLink goes through St. Louis University.
• Seems more accessible than other routes, that is, more prone to attracting clientele.

Considerations/suggestions:
• South Grand is too narrow to run transit buses, if it were underground it would serve more riders.
• Great if you can get it down the constraints on S. Grand.
• I like this idea the most in that it serves as existing community and well developed commercial
centers. Long-term, though, the right-of-way impact could be detrimental to the traffic flow on
the narrow stretch south of Arsenal. Is it feasible to do two single tracks south of Arsenal, one
running one block east of Grand?
• South Grand is well-served by transit; transit would not encourage anything new here. A separate
study should look at a line that goes from north city to south city entirely along Grand.

Oppose the alternative due to concern about street-running light rail:


• I don't think Grand Avenue is wide enough, although, if it cuts down traffic it may do some good.
• Doesn’t sound practical because of car congestion and it is a main thoroughfare.
• Problem with Grand is it is narrow and crowded in many parts, would not want to lose street
parking in Grand South Grand area - commercial area depends on it too.
• Traffic on Grand Ave. is already crowded.
• Grand Ave. seems too narrow & too crowded.
• This is the "bad news" light rail route. Grand is too narrow as a street!
• Seems a good mix of the 2 alternatives above except street is too narrow. Don't like to see people
lose their parking from in front of their homes.
• Perfect area to serve but Grand Avenue is not wide enough to allow it without elevated line.
• Definitely too congested.
• The traffic changes to Grand might kill the existing redevelopment. Not direct enough.

Bus Rapid Transit Along UP Right-of-Way

Generally think alternative is good: 7


Generally think alternative is not good: 25

Oppose the alternative for stated reasons:


• No more buses, please.
• Stick with rail transit - BRT will not produce redevelopment.
• Won't support redevelopment.
• NO! Bus improvements should be part of another study; buses will not promote new ridership or
investment. Diamond lanes are important, but not in place of light rail.

Considerations/suggestions:
• Don't bother with BRT along UP R.O.W. If you want BRT, make it dedicated bus lanes on or
adjacent to I-55.
• Don't like the bus rapid transit unless there are longer buses or very frequent buses.
• Could this be done in addition to the Chouteau-Grand alignment?

Downtown
9th/10th One-Way Pair/Couplet

Generally think alternative is good: 12


Generally think alternative is not good: 8

Oppose the alternative for stated reasons:


• I like the access/proximity to Washington. But it runs along the existing MetroLink, we don't
really need that.
• Seems to mirror current MetroLink too much going north/south.
• Downtown should have a cross shape route. Incorporate both couplets into a single line.
• Closer to jobs/entertainment. Cons: difficult to tap Washington Ave. residential population.
• Less desirable - essentially parallels existing MetroLink service, limited possibilities for 3 and 4-
car trains.
• Both DT route do not provide service to western DT/Jefferson Ave.

Support the alternative for stated reasons:


• This makes the most sense of all! Trains can continue moving. It also serves the Convention
Center (all of downtown), near the Busch Stadium, a shuttle bus to the Arch, connectivity to
MetroLink, Amtrak, Greyhound, and Savvis Center!

Question the alternative:


• Will this serve the newly developed Washington and district?
• Is there a need for a couplet so close to the MMC or existing Convention Center steps?
• What about when parades shut down these streets?
• Both downtown plans could be very useful with extended hours and frequent trips. A lack of one
or the other could make it pointless, as MetroLink penetration in that area is already good, in
addition to many buses. I don't really prefer one plan to the other.

Considerations/suggestions:
• Downtown is walkable from most existing stations. The new lines should look to expand the
downtown in growth, either in new buildings or residential/commercial development.
• This pairing is great! Consider a northern entry to downtown via Mullarphy/13th/Cass instead of
Convention. Or maybe Cole Street. But I like the 9th/10th pairing - nice connections to existing
MetroLink.
• Could be routed to the wider streets in this area.

Question the alternative:


Both downtown plans could be very useful with extended hours and frequent trips. A lack of one or the
other could make it pointless, as MetroLink penetration in that area is already good, in addition to many
Metrobuses. I don't really prefer one plan to the other.

Downtown
Olive/Chestnut Single-Track Loop

Generally think alternative is good: 18


Generally think alternative is not good: 7

Oppose the alternative for stated reasons:


• Downtown is walkable from most existing stations. The new lines should look to expand the
downtown in growth, either in new buildings or residential/commercial.
• No good. Too slow, just like existing downtown bus loop routing. Why Chestnut? Market is
much wider. Also, lacks good access to Busch Stadium - remember it is farther south than it used
to be!
• Downtown seems very well served already. Only MetroLink development needed is to hook up
to line expansion leaving the central business district.

Support the alternative for stated reasons:


• Would be good because it goes farther into downtown - reaching the financial district at
Broadway plus serving retail - Macy's, St. Louis center redevelopment. Auto traffic must remain
on the streets. Transit only "malls" kill streets and retail.
• Preferable because it improves development opportunities west of 14th.
• Prefer because it stretches farther west and seems to compliment current metro better.
• Still close to stadium, lofts, and businesses.

Considerations/suggestions:
• I prefer this over the other option, but why are we running the bus down 14th instead of 8th and
connecting the north-south lines underground. Don't like trains competing with traffic.
• This might entail security issues with the court if appeals in the OPO.
• Your have ruled out Locust completely? Not so long ago it was ruled by buses and would have
made a good transit way.

Question the alternative:


• Both downtown plans could be very useful with extended hours and frequent trips. A lack of one
or the other could make it pointless, as MetroLink penetration in that area is already good, in
addition to many metrobuses. I don't really prefer one plan to the other.

Oppose the alternative due to concern about street-running light rail:


• Single narrow streets to be recognized.
• Downtown needs all of the East/West arterials. Taking Olive & Chestnut would really mess with
traffic.

Support the alternative for its economic development potential:


I think this alignment serves more of the downtown area. Could increase development of old buildings
on 14th

Appendix D: Verbatim Written Additional Comments

1 What considerations would be taken for a possible earthquake and its effect on the MetroLink?
Looking forward to when these plans become a reality. This is much needed in St. Louis
especially with so much development going on in the downtown, northside and southside
2 areas.
3 It was nice to be able to attend the forum. It was informative.
4 Please hurry and build it.
Room was to hot. Also, maybe you will get more actual riders to attend if you give out
5 meeting notices on the buses and light rail trains. Thanks, helpful meeting.
St. Louis needs transit 24-hour in some areas. The airport is open 24-hours there should be
6 Metro service to the airport 24-hours a day.
In general the study team seemed very adept at not really answering the questions more at
giving put answers. The information looks good on paper but more should be done to make
this happen now and not waste so much time studying things. Take the decisions out of the
7 politician’s hands and make one entity in charge to get the work done.
I am not crazy about the ground level trains. It seems to me that with theses idiot drivers in St
8 Louis that would invite a lot of accidents.
More space should have been provided for viewing each proposed site. We were too cramped
for good observation. At least we saw some thinking about the future of St Louis. Whether
Americans like it or not the whole human race may have to change from cars to something
else. If people would study oceanography they would see how the planet is put together and if
they studied astronomy they would see how dependent this planet is upon what is around us in
9 the universe.
10 Need greater rail access on new routes through established neighborhoods.
Needed more visible meeting location with more space. At least signs in the building lobby or
11 indication of meeting location on the 2nd floor would help.
Light rail is a wonderful idea, because it is safer. The problem with the MetroLink is that
certain areas where you have to catch it do not feel comfortable. It is not safe. It seems like it
12 will get you home sooner.
I live in Kirkwood and I am in a sales capacity that takes me all over the city. I would not use
public transportation except for recreation. My mother lives in South St. Louis and she does
not drive and relies on MetroLink. There are very few bus routes in her area to get her places.
Call a ride has been a nightmare. I would like to see more accessibility for seniors like my
13 mother.
I wish you people would consider another option which is running these trains underground. I
know it costs more and takes more time but great cities have subway systems like Paris,
London and NY City. These places took decades and spent billions building their systems.
Not once has the public been given the option of spending more money and taking more time
to have it built underground. I don't take any pride in building the cheapest system money can
buy. Do you think anyone is impressed with the view from the LWE Station to Union Station
riding through warehouses and freight yards? See the public on taking pride and build a first
14 class transit system.
Leave the buses alone, you guys have created the worst mess for trying to fix something that
15 really wasn't broken. It seems like you always take the main routes and mess them up.
16 Noise in presentation room made it difficult to hear.
Residents will have more input when you get to the details of the location of the stations, street
17 closings and etc..
I can't wait! Great job in researching and taking into consideration the needs of the community.
18 I appreciate the thought behind the proposed routes.
I want to be more involved. Please place me your email list. I have a lot of experience dealing
19 with transit [email protected]. Also, not everyone works downtown. Look around,

the workers of downtown are not representative of the northside.
I think the MetroLink rail would be more comfortable, safer, and quicker than our present
20 transportation.
The people at the open house were very organized and helpful. Everyone knew what they
21 spoke about and they were very knowledgeable of the study.
22 Richard Dockett 401-0452 - Attached flyer - Create more jobs for local black workers
Map attached - If Riverview is no longer being considered then go out Natural Bridge and go
right on Goodfellow to just south of Hwy 70. The Hampton bus would connect to the Baden
23 area.
24 Please expand MetroLink ASAP!
25 Keep doing a great job, please. God loves you all.
The central corridor which includes Forest Park SE and "Botanical Heights", Shaw and other
residential and commercial/retail outlets is and has been experiencing significant growth. It is
26 anticipated that over 2,000 new jobs will be located in this area in the next 6 to 8 years.
How will the study solicit comments from a larger population of transit dependent users? Will
27 these new systems have limited service or 24 hour runs?
28 How about a new name for these lines? The initials TRAM - The River Area Metro.
29 Impressive work, presentation well done.
30 I am encouraged by the thoroughness with which the study is being considered.
Build MetroLink above highway 40 when they redo 40. Do it while the road is under
construction instead of waiting for later. Connect new MetroLink with more existing Metro
31 stops now. Example: Chicago has different trains red/blue/green that all run on the same track.
Doing a good job in sharing information and explaining the industry-specific language. I
might recommend a video of the various routes especially showing key intersections to assist
in sparking recognition of known sites and explaining lesser known options, especially
32 regarding lines running along existing rail lines.
It is taking too long to get this finished! At the current rate of progress, St. Louis could be a
ghost town by the time the first train is running, negating the need for large transportation
33 expenditure.
34 Good Luck!
Basch Brewery and NGA together have over 6,000 employees. I am surprised that a route
down very wide Broadway or along I-55 continues to be ignored. None the less expand
35 ASAP. Thank you and God Bless You!
Very glad to see the effort to improve public transportation in St. Louis. Please get this
information out to those who would use it. The more current MetroLink/bus riders know this
36 information and can make an opinion the better.
37 Very general. Need free downtown zone.
We need money. The Council of Governments should speed MetroLink development along by
securing funding now. We should not be dependent on federal funds. Our federal government
is being run into the ground. The Council of Governments should lobby the State to allow
38 highway funds to be used for light rail.
Great presentation, loved it. Very organized and professional. Serviced educated audience -
39 What about other demographics?
1. I understand the funding constraints of having to stay within the city limits, but ultimately
this needs to function as a regional system. 2. The transit goals seem to be fuzzy - move people
downtown? Improve overall bus operations? Spur redevelopment? Serve local businesses
and residents (replacing one or more local bus routes) or to move commuters quickly through
the city? 3. There needs to be a substantial supply of visible accessible parking at the end of
the line stations or anyplace the line crosses and Interstate. 4. Staying on 14th St. at South out
of downtown would be preferable to tucker, at least thru the existing MetroLink station on
14th. 5. Ken makes a better door than a window he needs to be aware of where he's standing
40 relative to the audience and the screen. 6. Running light rail counter to existing one-way

traffic downtown improves safety see Denver's system.
Evaluate MetroLink for my ease of rolling a wheelchair or scooter off without reliance on the
41 mechanical lift of a bus. The center of the road ROW routes seem to call for unreliable lifts.
An alternative of streetcars should have been proposed. Streetcars can be built to operate fast.
Also developers should be partnered for any new line. A street car in 5 years will get a lot
42 more for such partners that a possible light rail bus in 20 years.
South city residents will embrace rail quickly. Gravois will rebound - rail will break up the
wide expanses of pavement and make it a more pedestrian friendly environment. I would
43 expect small and mid-size development to begin on Gravois before we break ground.
44 I really enjoyed the opportunity to ask questions of the people involved in this project.

We urgently need the authorities to expand the Metrolink system along schools (high-school,
elementary, college) especially colleges, hospitals, business sections, and along the streets in the city
safely. It is very necessary for residents when they need the means of transportation to go to school,
5 to work and to do business, etc. We also need the Metrolink direct downtown to airport.
I believe that this type of transportation would be good because of the speed of transport of workers

7 High cost of gasoline.
I believe that such availability of public transportation will greatly improve the quality of life for

• This section is providing convenience for people to go to work and grocery stores every day.
• This serves the Latino community.
• This one seems to be a very good one.
• Most accessible and least complicated.
• I believe that this alternative would be the best for the Southside as it covers the most populated
area.
• I like the fact it leads straight to downtown and has enough space for the Metro; big population.
• Because Gravois is a wide street, building tracks would not contribute to the shrinkage of the
driving area, and also because along this route, the population is dense, the car traffic would be
reduced as well.
• Lower cost and higher number of riders.
• This possibly will meet the least resistance.

Northside-Southside Transit Improvements Study
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

At station planning workshops held October 24-26, 2006 as part of the


Northside-Southside Transit Improvement Study, the public gave its
input on the final set of light rail alternatives, station locations and
potential development opportunities for North St. Louis, South St.
Louis and downtown. The objectives of the workshops were to gather
input on:

• The final Detailed Alternatives;


• Land use planning principles and practices; and
• Proposed station locations and area plans.

More than 80 people attended the three workshops, which focused on


the alternatives in each of the study area corridors. Attendees viewed
project information and heard a presentation on station design and
land use before breaking into working groups. Study team members
led the work group discussions where attendees participated in station
planning. After that activity, an attendee gave a brief summary of his
or her group’s discussion. Several observations resulted from the
discussions:

• Station Locations:
o Consider station locations in both the median as well as
curbside;
o Consistently place stations between ¼ to ½ mile apart;
o Locate stations closer to existing MetroLink in the
downtown area;
o Locate stations near bus stops and street parking in North
and South St. Louis; and
o Consider potential locations on the Northside: at Natural
Bridge/Shreve, 14th/Cass and Natural Bridge/Vandeventer,
and on the Southside: at UPRR/Kingshighway,
Chouteau/Compton, Gravois/Jefferson, near South Grand
o hospitals and Saint Louis University.
• Station Design:
o Request to make stations transparent for safety;
o Expressed concern about the safety of children and seniors
crossing the street to access the stations;
October 2006 Station Planning Workshops’ Comment Summary Report
2
o Expressed concern about the safety of vehicles making left
turns; and
o Expressed concern about emergency vehicle accessibility,
signalization and speed of trains.

• Station Look:
o Make stations context sensitive so they do not overshadow
existing structures; and,
o Provide protection from the elements.
• Land Use:
o Prefer mixed-use, high density land uses in all corridors;
o Desire pedestrian and neighborhood-friendly development;
o Prefer more service-oriented and commercial
development; and,
o Prefer parking/park-and-ride lots at appropriate locations.
• Alignments:
o Would like a larger east-west loop in downtown;
o Like the alignments that use the Union Pacific Railroad
(UPRR) although there is concern about use of the UPRR
right-of-way; and,
o Like street running on wide streets that connect to vital
neighborhoods.

Thirty-eight comment forms were completed at the workshops.


Several conclusions can be drawn from the comments:

• Two-thirds of the attendees (66%) said the stations are


correctly located.
• More than half of the attendees (60%) felt the station designs
in terms of sidewalk access, safety and traffic worked for their
neighborhood.
• Many noted that they liked the glass and steel look of the
transit shelter examples because it is consistent with the
existing system, modern, transparent and seems easier to keep
clean.
• There was the feeling that stations should not distract from the
neighborhoods but instead “fit in” with the existing look.
• Most attendees expressed a need for higher density and mixed-
use development in all three corridors – Northside, Southside
and downtown.
• Several downtown attendees suggested limiting additional
parking.

PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT PROCESS

The purpose of community engagement is to ensure that the public


and all interested agencies: actively participate in the Northside-
Southside Transit Improvements Study process; are fully aware of the
decision-making process for determining which transit improvements
should be implemented; and to educate and initiate support on general
concept, such as street-running light rail transit (LRT). This section
documents the different approaches and tools used to encourage
workshop attendance.

A major component of the outreach strategy study team members


presentations announcing the workshops and giving an update on the
study. Presentations were made to neighborhood associations, local
business groups, community leaders and government and elected
officials. A variety of approaches were employed for engaging
residents and stakeholders to participate including:

• Development of a mailing list comprised of nearly 2,000


residents and business owners using the outreach briefing sign-
in lists. These individuals received study newsletters through
the mail announcing public involvement activities and project
updates.

• Distribution of an electronic meeting announcement via email to


more than 600 recipients. The database was also compiled
using the outreach briefing sign-in list.

• Placement of advertisements in area newspapers including the


Arch City Chronicle, La Voz (Spanish newspaper), North City
Suburban Journal, Petra Strana (Bosnian newspaper), South City
Suburban Journal, Southwest Suburban Journal, St. Louis
American and the St. Louis Argus.

• Distribution of more than 400 meeting flyers to study-area


residents and business owners at briefings held at their meetings
since July 2006.

• Placement of more than 50 posters at study information sites,


neighborhood association offices and other community meeting
locations.

October 2006 Station Planning Workshops’ Comment Summary Report

• Placement of meeting announcements on the entire Metro Bus
fleet and MetroLink light rail cars, for a total of more than 2,000.

• Translation of meeting announcements in Arabic, Bosnian, Dari,


Spanish and Vietnamese. More than 1,000 of these flyers were
distributed to students and their families who participate in the
St. Louis Public School’s English as a Second Language Program
and at the ethnic meetings held at the International Institute.

• Participation at the International Institute’s Prosperity Fair,


informing new immigrants and local businesses in South St.
Louis of the study.

• Placement of more than 10,000 flyers on doors within a half mile


of the Natural Bridge Alternative in North St. Louis.

The Station Planning Workshops were held on three consecutive days,


October 24-26, 2006 at the St. Louis Regional Chamber and Growth
Association’s office in downtown; Lift for Life Academy lin South St.
Louis; and, at Fifth Missionary Baptist Church in North St. Louis.. The
meeting sites were selected because of their location along or near the
alignments under consideration.

While extensive steps were taken to encourage workshop attendance,


the meetings ended up falling on the same three dates a 2006 World
Series games in St. Louis. Thus, it is likely that the World Series
impacted workshop attendance.

METHODOLOGY

The Station Planning Workshops were held as a part of the


development of the detailed alternatives. Eighty-two people attended
the workshops. Upon arrival, participants were asked to locate their
residence and place of employment on a study area map. Meeting
participants identified 29 residences and 31 places of employment
within the study area.

At this second round of open houses, the public was able to view
background information and to hear about station design and land-use
policies from the study team during a brief presentation. Following the
presentation, attendees split into work groups to participate in a 90-
minute station planning activity.

October 2006 Station Planning Workshops’ Comment Summary Report

Although the same content was presented at each meeting, the focus
was on the alternatives that served the area in which the workshop
took place. At the Downtown and Southside meeting, the groups were
alternative specific. Since the Northside has only one alternative, the
Natural Bridge Avenue alignment, attendees were asked to participate
in the group that focused on the stations about which they were most
interested. Thus, this alternative was divided by groups of stations
located between Cass and W. Florissant, W. Florissant and
Kingshighway and Kingshighway and Interstate 70. Study team
members facilitated the station planning activity, while other team
members took notes of the discussion. A participant from each group
was selected to give a brief summary of his or her group’s discussion.
Actual notes from the station planning activity and group discussion
review are included in this report’s appendices.

A comment form was distributed to attendees as they entered the


workshop. They were asked to complete the form on-site. Thirty-eight
comment forms were collected. Since the conclusion of the
workshops, more than 20 communications have been received in the
form of letters, telephone calls and emails.

COMMENTS

The following provides a summary of feedback compiled from the


comment forms and the station planning work groups. In keeping with
the organization of the comment form, the results are discussed in the
following order: station location, station design, station look, public
involvement and other comments. A copy of the comment form is
attached as Appendix A. Actual verbatim responses are included in
Appendix B. There are not an equal number of responses for each
question because some attendees did not complete all questions.

October 2006 Station Planning Workshops’ Comment Summary Report

Station Locations

One of the primary objectives for the workshops was to determine if


participants felt that the proposed stations for the detailed alternatives are
located in the right places. As indicated in Exhibit 1, slightly more than two-
thirds of those who responded (66%) felt the stations are correctly located.
The people who responded “no” were asked to suggest other station locations,
and almost everyone provided a comment. Comments from the individuals
who like the station locations expressed support for the specific proposed
locations and the alignments being considered. Those who did not like the
proposed locations suggested station locations closer to 8th and Pine, at
Lafayette and Tucker, and in the loft district in downtown St. Louis; Shreve,
Vandeventer, St. Louis Avenue in North St. Louis; and, 16th and Chouteau and
Kingshighway in South St. Louis.

Comments recorded during the station planning activity were


summarized by meeting location. As indicated below, the comments
duplicate some of those noted on the comment form. However, many
do not. This is not surprising. The study team had hoped the dialogue
during the group discussion would serve as a catalyst for exchanging
October 2006 Station Planning Workshops’ Comment Summary Report

ideas that had not been previously considered. Overall, all groups
commented on the distance between the stations and suggested
station location changes.

Downtown:

• Put stations in median;


• Move stations further apart from each other; and
• Move stations closer to existing MetroLink LRT.

Southside:

• Add stations at UPRR/Kingshighway, Chouteau/Compton and


Gravois/Jefferson;
• Eliminate UPRR/Southwest or UPRR/Arsenal station;
• Put stations curb-side instead of within median;
• Place stations within walking distance, they are too far apart
(especially between Chouteau and Russell);
• Need stations for hospitals and Saint Louis University;
• Approve all stations along the Jefferson/I-55 alignment; and
• Safety and visibility are important.

Northside:

• Put ¼ to ½ mile between stations, or make comparable to bus


stop distances;
• Consider adding stations at Natural Bridge/Shreve, 14th/Cass
and Vandeventer;
• Prefer St. Louis Avenue station over North Market but concerned
right-of-way is too narrow;
• Put stops near parking; and
• Coordinate bus routes and loading stops with LRT stations.

Station Design

As indicated in Exhibit 2, more than half of the attendees (60%) felt


the station designs--in terms of sidewalk access, safety and traffic--
work for their neighborhoods. A few comments were noted about the
center platforms not being pedestrian friendly. In addition, attendees
suggested the stations compliment their neighborhoods and not stray
too far from existing designs, are visible, well-lit and transparent.

The following is a summation of comments recorded in the working
groups by meeting location. Transparent shelters are viewed as a
safety measure in all three corridors. Since street running is a new
concept for the St. Louis area, it was not surprising that all groups
expressed concerns for both pedestrians and vehicles.

Downtown:

• Concerned about turning radius;


• Concerned about Busch Stadium pedestrian crossing;
• Concerned about tracks interfering with streets; and
• Need to address parking requirement.

October 2006 Station Planning Workshops’ Comment Summary Report


10
Southside:

• Enclose shelters to protect from weather (block sun, wind and


rain);
• Consider allowing neighborhoods to help determine the design;
• Should have good visibility and accessibility;
• Provide visual cues for riders to locate stations;
• Separate cars and rail on the street;
• Concerned over using the Union Pacific Railroad right-of-way;
and
• Concerned regarding left turns.

Northside:

• Concerned about removal of on-street parking;


• Provide lights with countdowns for ADA and pedestrians;
• Ensure trains adhere to posted vehicle street speeds;
• Concerned with emergency vehicle access;
• Concerned for children, pedestrians and cars crossing streets
and between stations;
• Provide shelters that are divided and cover much of platform;
and
• Well-lighted.

Station Look

In order to gather specific information about station features, study


team members asked attendees to comment on the look of the
proposed stations. Although some of the comments overlapped some
of the areas already addressed in the station design section, there
were two emerging themes. Many noted that they like the glass and
steel look because it is
consistent with the
existing system,
modern, transparent
and appears easier to
keep clean. Other
attendees prefer that
stations not detract
from their
neighborhoods and like
the look of brick.

October 2006 Station Planning Workshops’ Comment Summary Report


11
Overall, the groups discussed having a context sensitive design.
However, some attendees support red brick in the neighborhoods but
not in the downtown area.

Downtown:

• Consider transparent architecture for safety; and


• Be context sensitive, no red brick.

Southside:

• Consider context sensitive design;


• Prefer transparent shelters for safety;
• Minimize the amount of metal;
• Consider a functional-forward looking design;
• Prefer amenities such as comfortable seating, heaters and
informational kiosk;
• Not in favor of vending machines and advertisements;
• Designs determined by the neighborhoods;
• Consider landscaping;
• Consider brick;
• Develop visual cues for
riders to locate stations;
and
• Use materials that are
easy to maintain and not
vandalize.

Northside:

• Consider functional
amenities such as
restrooms, parking and
heaters;
• Fit into community, do not
overshadow existing
structures;
• Like Red brick;
• Divide the shelter and
cover much of the
platform; and
• Well–lighted.

Transit-Oriented Development in Neighborhoods

Since light rail can help create development opportunities around


station locations, attendees were asked to comment about the type of
future development that would work best for their neighborhoods.
Most attendees expressed a need for higher density and mixed-use
development in all three corridors. Several downtown attendees
suggested limiting additional parking. In both North and South St.
Louis, support for residential services and community-oriented
businesses such as small grocery stores, restaurants, laundry and
cleaners, shoe repair, was noted. There was a general consensus that
additional retail stores would not be the preferred land-use.

The following is a summation by meeting location of comments


recorded in the working groups:

Downtown
• Desire specialty mixed-use;
• Need high density developments;
• Accommodate neighborhoods; and
• Do not put parking structures at all stations.

Southside
• Locate small park and ride lots at some stations;
• Add mixed-use and high density development;
• Add more services and commercial;
• Redevelop the area south of Schnucks at Missouri;
• Make pedestrian-friendly;
• Blend into the neighborhoods; and
• Consider Density, Diversity and Design Quality.

Northside
• Make light rail and bus transit the same regarding levels and
stations;
• Upgrade existing bus stops;
• Encourage more development/visibility on I-70 corridor;
• Discourage retail-type business, more community
enhancements;
• Provide community service businesses that bring money into the
neighborhood (Shreve to Jefferson);
• Determine development based on needs of the neighborhood;
• Prefer mixed-use;

• Make pedestrian friendly; and
• Place park-and-ride at appropriate locations.

Public Involvement

In order to develop a profile of Station Planning Workshop attendees,


the last portion of the comment form collected information about the
attendee and provided an evaluation of the key aspects of the
workshops. Attendees were asked to describe their affiliation to the
study area; how they heard about the workshops; and, to rate the
success of the workshops.

Attendee Profile

As indicated in Exhibit 3, the workshop participants represented


people who live, work, and own property and are frequent transit
riders. More than half of the attendees (62%) reside in the study area.
Twelve percent of the participants are property owners, while another
10 percent of the respondents selected the provided “other” option.
The “others” said that they are a downtown employee, a developer, a
guide or a potential frequent transit user.

Workshop Notification

In an effort to gauge the success of community engagement, a


question under public involvement asked attendees how they found
out about the workshops (Exhibit 4). Flyers, email, community
organizations, and to a somewhat lesser extent, newsletters and the
website were the primary sources of meeting notification. Under the
“other” option, attendees wrote they attended the first open house,
found out at their church or saw a newspaper article.

Station Planning Workshop Information

A lot of information was covered during the two-hour workshop. The


same content was presented at each meeting; however, the focus was
on the alternatives that served the area where the workshop was held.
Most attendees indicated the information provided was useful. No one
felt the information was not useful (Exhibit 5).

Study Team

Members of the study team were on hand to answer questions, take


notes and facilitate the work groups. Attendees rated them on their
“helpfulness” during the workshop. On the whole, attendees indicated
the study team was helpful (Exhibit 6).

Workshop

The last two questions on the comment form asked attendees to rate
the workshops. It should be noted that the workshops were on the
evening of the 2006 World Series ball games held in St. Louis. The
results (illustrated in Exhibit 7) indicate that attendees felt the format
for the workshops was organized and worth attending.

Additional Comments

In order to identify issues or concerns not previously addressed in the


comment form, attendees were allowed to provide additional
comments. Such comments were coded and tabulated into general
categories. As Exhibit 8 indicates, the comments overlapped some of
the areas addressed in the comment form, but also identified some
issues, particularly those related to the specific alignments that were
not discussed elsewhere. There were many positive comments, but
criticism regarding areas not served by the proposed alignments and
accessibility concerns stand out. Getting more information about the
study was another frequent comment.

Question 1 - Station Location Verbatim Comments


Be sure stations near stadium my work well after game days & pedestrians don't
1 foul the line.
2 Concern for stadium (Clark & 11th) station/pedestrian access)
But I would regret having to move the Multi-Modal to adjust after all the time
3 taken to build multi-modal the first time!
Consider consolidating western loop stations to enable transfers for bypassing loop;
Washington at 14th is in major pedestrian traffic area and deserves an immediate
4 vicinity, very visible station.
5 Covers many areas left out of current line. Offers good cross-route options.
6 Need to have stations near the loft district
7 I particularly like the Garden location and the one at Arsenal.
Keep the one at Kingshighway and Southwest probably make more sense than
8 Arsenal does….
9 Add one at Lafayette for Lafayette Square.
10 Need station at Lafayette and Tucker

Stations along Jefferson provide great visibility, access and bus/cross connectivity.
I am not concerned about slow train movement because of the number of Jefferson
11 stations. I believe the amount of stations (several) is great.
This would be the best location. It would attract new people to the area. I would
not drive as much I live at Chippewa & Minnesota. Great access to the current
12 business & give people the chance to see the area.
13 One added on at Shreve.
The current study presented to us today was developed well and I feel that the
stations submitted are in a good location. More information is needed to make a
14 formal
The stations need to evaluate the disabled and elderly use and the feasibility for
15 them.
16 There should also be stations at Shreve and Natural Bridge.

17 At this point okay, but more communication and input than community is needed.
18 Vandeventer
I can't be at the Southside meeting but I think a station should be located at (or
19 between) 18th Street and Grafton Parkway on Chouteau for this line.
20 Closer to 8th and Pine MetroLink
Consider future development of future lines. Rather than trying to make the line
21 go "everywhere" leaves space for a future for a future corridor.
Favor 16th at Chouteau - closer to amenities; Southwest supports commercial
22 district closer to the hill.
23 I think there should be a station at Kingshighway.
24 It appears so - depends on traffic/development study.

25 St. Louis Avenue & Florissant is the best idea. The Cass & Florissant is great idea.

Question 2 - Station Design Verbatim Comments
Brick, stone, iron (look); no vending; wires connected to antique streetlights; motifs for
1 local area' kiosks.
Center platforms are not rider friendly and have a greater impact on the urban
environment. Since you appear to be eliminating all on street parking, I would prefer that
stations share the sidewalks along the curb line. Plus with curbside stations they can be
2 expanded to 3-and 4-car stations much more easily!
3 Common thread that says "Southside" but something unique for each stations.
Concerned about pedestrians having to cross streets tracks and deal with trains as well as
4 vehicles.
Cross transit opportunities; more potential for pedestrian back & forth, not just parallel to
MetroLink; also serves area not served by Metro bus - it uses Market, Broadway &
5 Washington.

Didn't see much. Existing systems authentic steel and glass genre is good urban fit. Stay
6 consistent with them. Do not neglect wither sheltering and visual transparency (safety).
For safety concerns I would rather have the stations go underground (like Skinker). I
7 know it costs more money but at what price is safety?
Gravois is a highway of cars. Unnecessary to have that many car lanes. PERFECT FOR
8 LIGHT RAIL.
I feel they need to make them well lighted. Make sure there are rails, is so kids do not
9 step in the streets or cars get on the tracks.
10 I like the idea so far. More information is needed.
11 I think so. I like the idea if landscaping. I think the extra cost is worth it. !Bricks!
12 Important to keep sidewalks & pedestrian access uncluttered.
13 Love some of the designs.
14 Most looked cheap!
15 Mostly yes, but don't stray too much way from existing styles.
16 Needs to be well lighted.
Not sure yet - don't really see the development in a safe matter that's a great concern.
17 Taking away from historic areas.
Stations should be made of a transparent material with plenty of lights and sitting so that
18 people inside can see out and people outside can see in. Warm in winter. (safe)
19 Stations that fit into the neighborhood.

20 Think trains could run in streetwise. Toronto streetcars. Pedestrian access from sidewalk.
21 To be determined.
22 Visibility, character and density of street names at stations are important.

Question 3 - Station Look Verbatim Comments
Anything other than the same old thing. The train itself doesn't look antique, why
1 should the stations?
As long as the stations do not distract from the surrounding with trash containers
2 and are kept clean.
3 Brick station goes with historical look.
4 Consistency is nice, as long as everything is up-to-date.
Consistent station appearance and design other identification of specific line and
economy in design and development. Each station could be accented with a
5 unique icon or motif to allow easy identification to riders.
6 I like the designs submitted. More information is needed.
7 I like the neat look of metal/glass (if possible). 1) enclosure. !Bricks!
I like the one that makes it transparent. Easy way to keep clean and access
8 available.
I prefer the context sensitive approach also having a consistent recognizable
9 design.
10 I wouldn't want them to interfere with the church & schools.
11 I'd rather have them underground.
12 It doesn't inhibit foot traffic
13 Like street level & middle of streets.
14 Low floor proper technology
15 Modern stations for a modern system.
16 More enclosed space - could be glass station safety issue.
17 Needs work.
18 Nice visual improvement
19 Okay
20 Prefer raw look of concrete & steel, and consistency with existing lines.
21 The design brings a nice appearance to the community.
22 The designs are pretty good.
23 They are nice. Please consider. Covered shelters and lighting.
Transparent & Minimalist is good - no need to make architectural "statement" in a
24 city which already has diverse architecture.
25 Utilitarian

Question 4 - Station Development Verbatim Comments
1 Dense, mixed-use development
2 Grocery stores, childcare, affordable housing, medical/dental practices.
3 Stop building downtown parking!
4 Continued mixed-use, office, pedestrian-oriented and no more parking.
5 Grocery, shopping and eating
6 High density, pedestrian oriented (street parking, storefronts), mixed-use
7 Higher density housing
8 More reliable public transportation.
9 No parking lots, mixed retail - residential-offices
10 Appropriate high er densities
Connect the vital neighborhoods! Services are needed. Plenty of housing exists.
11 I'd like more groceries; restaurants; Laundromats. I want to live in a city.
12 Mixed Use
13 Rehab existing shopping at Broadway.
2-5 story mixed-use development along Jefferson. Possibly institutional/destination
type development at Bayless (more suburban stations). Concentration of
neighborhood services and residential mixed use along Jefferson is of prime
14 importance.
Development that services needs of home: small groceries, dry cleaning, library,
15 transit oriented residential.
Single family homes and condo. Business opportunities that can help person from
16 having to drive to the store or business.
Cultural center, meeting places, coffee shops bur no retail. Perhaps use the land at
17 small army plant (federal government).
18 There is no certainty that this development will spawn opportunities for growth.
19 Housing stability
20 Money in the community, more business.
21 Business.
22 Businesses that are needed: food markets, shoe repair, drug store, etc.
I still haven't seen transit oriented development at existing stations. How about
23 some density?
24 May use office - regional employment
25 Retail

Additional Verbatim Comments

Thought about possibility of having a loop on 14thn the 9th/10th option. This might
1 accomplish goal of reaching people around 14th and Olive/Pine/Locust/Washington.
Scope of discussion was poorly defined, particularly regarding private
development/TOD and interaction with traffic flow, existing projects (e.g., I-70 LID,
2 traffic study).
RID in Denver has run into several instances where the LPA is to share ROW with
existing freight lines and the planners are just now finding out that UP will not allow
light rail vehicles to share the ROW, only heavier, more impact-resistant vehicles-
the result is the LRT remains, the technology, much more ROW will be required (for
greater physical separation) and will require (a lot more acquisition of private
3 property (not popular)!
4 Great job!
I would be a frequent traveler if you build it where I can use it! Put the trains
where you want to go, not where you maybe hope that someday someone might
want to go there. Plenty of room to develop in and around existing "thriving" by
5 STL standards-neighborhoods.
This route accomplishes the most for development, access, and ease. Also very
6 visible.
7 Just let me know when the next one will be and where - Thank you!
The Jefferson alignment seems to encourage the density & intensity of development
and usage that light rail is intended to create. Gravois seems to drift too far away
from the urban core (to the west) past Jefferson/Grand. Jefferson runs right
through the heart of promising and redeveloping neighborhoods. Get facilities to
8 encourage this growth.
Disabled - the bus service to long to walk to the MetroLink stations - how are the
9 disabled and the elderly to get to these points?
10 Getting the information for workshop out better (radio, TV)
I would like more information. I feel at some point your organization should make
an effort to discuss this plan with individual churches, business and organizations
11 directly impacted.
Doesn't serve the O'Fallon Park neighborhood. I'm better served catching the W.
Florissant bus downtown. I would waste my gas driving to Natural Bridge to catch
the train when I could walk to the W. Florissant and Adelaide bus stop on my
12 corner. This project reeks of eminent domain!!!
13 Came in too late….Good Luck. It all comes down to the money.
I think alignment supports existing hospital, garden, entertainment hub and
14 residential.
When Union Market was downtown people came from other districts to shop there
and then favored other business. When the vendors were forced out people
stopped coming and the businesses left. Residents and visitors should be able to
walk. Auto drivers should improve their manners-they are arrogant; some respect
pedestrians but too many do not; I have trouble when I get the walk sign because
15 auto drivers want that time too.

Northside-Southside
Transit Improvements Study

Final September-October 2007


Open Houses’
Comment Summary Report

Submitted By:
Vector Communications
October 31, 2007
Executive Summary
Sponsored by East-West Gateway Council of Governments, Metro and the Missouri Department
of Transportation, the “Northside-Southside Transit Improvements Study” was a planning study,
evaluating light rail and other transit improvements for sections of North St. Louis City, South St.
Louis City and downtown. The study has resulted in the recommendation of a locally preferred
alternative for the Northside, Southside and downtown areas, including station locations and
design, costs and benefits.

This report documents the public input gathered during the study’s final round of public
meetings held in September and October 2007. The meetings were held for the general public
and involved three open houses on three consecutive days, plus two meetings for the limited-
English speaking population. The same information was presented at each set of meetings. In
total, 124 people attended the general meetings and 27 people attended the limited-English
speaking meetings.

The primary focus of all the meetings was to present the evaluation results of the detailed
alternatives and get input on the study team’s recommendation of a locally preferred alternative.
In addition, attendees were asked to comment on the public involvement process

General Public Open Houses Summary

At the open houses, 63 percent of evaluation participants agreed with the results. This
agreement was particularly strong on the north and south sides. The locally preferred alternative
that was selected by the study team was supported by 60 percent of the attendees who
commented.

The majority of the open house attendees were local residents. Open house participants were
primarily made aware of the open houses through receiving information via the project
newsletter, the website and the email announcement.

Overall, respondents felt that the open houses were very useful, well organized and well worth
attending. They also responded that the study team was very helpful.

Limited-English Speaking Open Houses Summary

At the meetings for the limited-English speaking community, 100 percent evaluation participants
agreed with the results. The locally preferred alternative that was selected by the study team
was supported by 92 percent of the attendees who commented.

The majority of the open house attendees were residents. Open house participants were
primarily made aware of the open houses through community organizations.

Overall, respondents felt that the limited-English speaking open houses were very useful, very
organized and well-worth attending. They also responded that the study team was very helpful.

Public Engagement Process


The purpose of engaging the community in the study was to ensure that the public and all
interested agencies: actively participated in the Northside-Southside Transit Improvements
Study process; were fully aware of the decision-making process for determining which transit
improvements should be implemented; and to educate and initiate support on general concepts,

such as “street-running light rail transit” (LRT). This section documents the different approaches
and tools used to encourage open house attendance.

A major component of the outreach strategy included the study team making presentations to
announce the open houses and give updates on the progress of the study. Presentations were
made to neighborhood associations, local business groups, community leaders and government
and elected officials. A variety of approaches were employed to encourage residents and
stakeholders to participate in the study, these included:

• More than 20 outreach presentations were held in the spring and summer.
Approximately 270 people attended from the neighborhood, ward and business
associations.
• More than 100 presentations have been made to date.
• Meeting announcements were added to the study’s web site.
• Meeting announcements were placed in the St. Louis American, the St. Louis Argus,
Red Latina, Arch City Chronicle (online), St. Louis Chinese American and Suburban
Journals.
• Approximately 600 posters were placed on Metro buses and MetroLink trains.
• More than 25 posters were displayed at neighborhood association offices and at local
businesses in the study area.
• Meeting announcements were sent via email to over 700 interested individuals.
• A study newsletter, which highlighted the open houses among other topics, was mailed
to more than 1,650 people.
• 800 meeting flyers were translated into Somalian, Bosnian, Spanish and Vietnamese to
announce the two limited-English speaking meetings. The meeting held at the
International Institute included African, Bosnian and Vietnamese populations. The other
was held at St. Cecilia’s Church for the Hispanic population.

General Public Open Houses


Three general public open houses were held from September 18-20, 2007. The Northside open
house took place on Tuesday, September 18, 2007, from 5:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m. at the Fifth
Missionary Baptist Church. The Southside open house took place on Wednesday, September
19, 2007, from 5:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m. at Meramec Elementary School. The downtown open house
took place on Thursday, September 20, 2007, from 3:30 p.m.-6:00 p.m. at the Regional
Collaboration Center. All three open houses contained the same content, and the same
PowerPoint presentation was shown at each one.

In total, 124 people attended the general public open houses. Upon arrival, meeting
participants were asked to indicate on a study area map their residence and place of
employment. The participants identified more than 65 residences and 50 employment locations
within the study area. Approximately 37 people attended the Northside open house followed by
47 people at the Southside open house and 40 at the Downtown open house.

At each open house there were five information stations focusing on the following topics: 1)
Northside-Southside Study Overview; 2) Alternatives 3) Station Land Use and Street Design: 4)
Detailed Evaluation Results; and, 5) Public Involvement and Next Steps. Study team members
were available at each station to talk with participants and to answer questions.

A comment form was distributed to meeting participants as they entered the open house
meetings. Attendees were asked to complete the comment form on-site after they visited all the
stations. Fifty-three meeting participants completed comment forms on-site. Meeting

Limited-English Speaking Open Houses


Following the general public open houses, study team members met with limited-English
speaking residents, particularly representatives from the Latino, Bosnian, African and
Vietnamese communities. The number of limited-English speaking residents is growing in the
City of St. Louis, particularly in south city , and especially among the Latino and Bosnian
populations. Many residents in this community have expressed that they do not have access to
personal vehicles and therefore depend on the area transit system

Two meetings were held for limited-English speaking communities, The first meeting was
Saturday, October 27, 2007 at the International Institute. The Institute provides a variety of
services for newly arrived immigrants and New Americans. At this location, the presentations
were conducted simultaneously for Bosnian, African and Vietnamese immigrants. The meeting
for Spanish speaking residents was held on Sunday, October 28, 2007 at St. Cecilia’s Catholic
Church. St. Cecilia’s is the official parish recognized for Latino Catholics by the St. Louis
Archdiocese. A translator was present to interpret the speaker’s presentation. Translators for
each language assisted presenters with interpretation of information as well as completion of
language specific comment forms. In total, 27 people attended the two meetings.

Public Involvement

The public involvement questions asked the limited-English speaking participants to describe
themselves and how they learned about the meetings. Participants were also asked to rate the
meetings according to the information provided. Below are the results. Appendix E outlines

# Comment
If you can make it work I can support the plan but I want to better understand the
101 opportunity for the communities.
Natural Bridge / 14th Street is the best route. The right-of-way is already wide enough
on most of the route (or possibly all of the route. - I am not sure how wide 14th street
102 is.)
I agree that the best alternative includes the Natural Bridge / 14th alternative on the
northside the 9th & 10th Couplet downtown and the Jefferson / I-55 alternatives on the
103 southside.
105 Very well presented. Fair, easy to interpret.
I am in full support of alternatives for the north side. I would like to see some
Florissant Avenue included, however I believe Metro would a needed connection to
107 Natural Bridge.
Jefferson loop would allow for much more development and positive neighborhood
201 impact.
The plan for Jefferson will obviously help development. It is the logical, most cost
202 effective option.
203 I felt that viable pros and cons were pointed out for each alternative.
204 Prefer the Chouteau-UPRR route.
If the Chouteau-UPRR line is built, I promise to sell my car (grin). UPRR has an
interesting definition of "sharing" their right-of-way. Seems more like creating a new
205 right-of-way to me.
210 The stops on the lines are logical for present day economy and population.
I think it would help for the public to have access to info. In all of the constraints,
211 including funding, FTA evaluation factors, shared railroad right-of-way regulations, etc.
I would be very pleased to see the MetroLink installed down Jefferson Ave. I think it
212 would be beneficial to many businesses.
For the southside, the Jefferson Ave. alternative is very impressive, full of development
opportunities, close proximity to improving neighborhoods, and cost effective
214 compared with the other proposed route.
215 Well thought out.
This transportation project embraces the transit history of St. Louis and would enable
both the productive reuse of our existing historic buildings and our vacant lots and
opportunity areas. I think the study team has hit the nail on the head with regard to
their choice of alignments. Street-running LRT down Jefferson and Natural Bridge with
downtown couplet will spur economic development and improve the mobility and
217 quality of the life for its users.
I have no strong opinion between the two southside routes. Clearly there are pros and
218 cons to each.
221 Looks good. Like the street-level train. Don't let the car-first crazies shout it down.
Due to the low platform equipment and street running alignments this will be very good
223 for St. Louis City, but a tough sell to the county tax payers.

Not getting a real secure / safe feeling about the evaluation of this study, seems not
enough interest is being placed on south county / I-55 area. I feel if you build it, it will
get used more and more. Plus you (we) wouldn't have a time limit / access to busses in
225 getting arsenal.
I think these plans are on the right track. This is a timely study, which is needed in this
area. I think this will allow more mobility to citizens who don’t drive. With the increased
price for gasoline, these extensions will save people money on transportation needs.
The ridership has increased; all the more reason to expand the system. The
extensions that are located near parking garages may help the motorist save money
301 on commuting daily.
I don't like street level stations for safety and traffic concerns. I realize it costs more to
build underground stations like Skinker, but it is safer and avoids traffic congestion.
This is designed to be a trolley or streetcar line, not a light rail system which has its
own right-of-way & doesn't compete with cars. Houston has had numerous car
accidents involving trains. Why don't you present various options & let the public
302 decide if they want to pay more in time & money for safety?
303 Sounds well thought out.
Thank you for making the open house available on more than one date at more than
304 one time.
306 We need a Botanical Garden and Hill connection!
307 Too many statistics for me.
308 The evaluation boards do show the pros & cons of each alternative.
On the southside option that uses the rail right-of-way, I have serious concerns about it
not connecting with the existing Grand MetroLink stop. I would prefer that it connect at
this point and terminate than not connect at all. As someone who had lived in South St.
Louis for many years I know that I would resort to driving my car rather than travel all
the way downtown just to transfer to head back west on the current MetroLink System.
I agree that Chouteau needs to be served. Terminating a Grand would still serve
312 Grand/Chouteau. I would prefer a streetcar or RBT for the length of Chouteau.
315 It looks good.
I believe that north area would do as well traveling west Florissant From I-70 north &
317 west.
318 Logical, practical, well presented.
320 Have the shelters cover the entire platform or station! Just like in England!

101 What about the opportunities for each of the communities? That needs to be clear-cut.
The north side route is what I am familiar with and the evaluation matrix supports the Natural
102 Bridge / 14th Street route.
103 Interesting
104 To me the new proposed extension appears to go nearly the same route as the current line.
The proposed route is similar to the current MetroLink route. I look forward to the expansion
105 following this one for a more diverse alternative for north city residents.
107 Outstanding. I'm in full support of the Natural Bridge / 14th street.
I think any and all expansion is fantastic. It is needed and wanted. I just wish the process
201 could somehow be sped up.
I prefer each of these alternatives. In particular I am happy to see the Jefferson choice for the
203 southside. I believe that area has the greatest need and opportunity for development.
Selection of southside route based on lowest cost does not seem to be in the best interest of
204 the citizens of St. Louis City and County.
I am in favor of the Jefferson / I-55. It would be another great asset to the area. The strong
business area and BOTH sides of Cherokee would profit. This area has made a change for
the better in the last 5 years. I only see things improving form here on out. - Pam Lanning,
206 3400 Indiana (50 years old, 30 year resident, grew up in Crestwood, MO)
207 Seems like the best choice.
It appears that there is no direct interface between the southside link and the downtown
street-running system with the existing MetroLink at the Civic Center (Scott Trade) station.
This is a huge mistake. The failure to combine these 2 elements at one station severely
reduces connectivity. It appears you are creating 2 systems - a street running system and an
off street system. I think the downtown couplet is unnecessary given its proximity to the
existing line. I think makes more sense to scrap the downtown couplet. I would use that
money to put the Chouteau part of the south route or Jefferson route on piers. It will greatly
speed run times. It makes no sense to spend millions on a system extension that will deliver
run times that are slower than automobile travel. It's a mistake. - John Openlander, 4242
208 Laclede Ave, #106, St. Louis, MO 63108, 314-646-3640, [email protected]
209 Perfect
If signage doesn't exist to indicate the time of the next train in a countdown fashion, the
210 appeal is less to riders coming from cars.
Glad to see safety discussion added. I would like to see actual data on fatality rates for street
211 running vs. separated running, which would influence final choice of route.
212 I am in favor of the plan and hope all the plans work out for the Jefferson Avenue expansion.
Jefferson / I-55 alignment is a terrific choice. Residential areas from Lafayette Square / Gate
District down to Marine Villa and Dutchtown are growing steadily. Many of the existing
residents either grew up with trolley cars or parents who still used public transportation or
buses. Many new residents are from other Metro areas and are families and accustomed to
good public transportation. As well other new residents see the benefits of city living and
213 "neighborhoods." Good public transportation builds & stabilizes neighborhoods.
Seems the obvious and most effective option. This will make a visible difference and lend an
elegant urban feel to the southside. Shared access with freight rail will not have the same
214 impact and promote upscale feel to the city.

215 Have a park & ride at Broadway & 55.
216 Jefferson / I-55 route looks okay.
These routes comprise the best options for continuing the city of St. Louis urban rebirth. In
order to achieve a true renaissance, this city needs an urban transit system. These preferred
alignments achieve the goals of fostering this environment. Please do what is in the study
group's power to voice your support of the alternatives and to encourage the realization of
217 this essential project. Thank you.
I think it would be great if you can somehow get the Loughborough station on the west side of
218 the highway.
Natural Bridge seems to be a "natural" route. Jefferson is the most attractive with the
development possibilities. I don't like how Chouteau seems to duplicate the existing
alignment. Maybe a streetcar would be better. Concerned about how the southside will mesh
220 with MetroSouth due to different routes.
Natural Bridge seems to make the most sense on north. On south, Jefferson makes the most
sense to me, especially from an economic development perspective. There's just a lot more
potential there than along a UP track that winds through residential neighborhoods. Also, I
221 like all the stops on Jefferson. More stops = more riders & more impact.
As a life long resident of the St. Louis area & a current resident of the city of St. Louis, I find it
difficult to endorse a project involving multiple millions of dollars that basically moves
minorities and low-income citizens from point A to point B. If I'm correct, this area is already
serviced by Metro bus lines. With the 64-40 project underway, and the traffic tie-ups already
causing problems, Metro would seem to serve a larger more "needing" segment of the
population if it looked at expansion through the central corridor, and as an alternative to the
222 inner belt.
Very logical selections for T.O.D. However, these alignments require a commitment by the
223 city to big T.I.F. dollars.
My main concern is the reduced development potential assigned with using the I-55 right-of-
224 way. I would prefer a route that is at street level and more integrated into the neighborhoods.
Top priority for Jefferson / I-55. I would prefer all tracks to be like the current runs and not in
the local streets but if that is our only option. I feel daily ridership should include recreational
and sporting events too - it would be greatly used. Couldn't the state highway and federal
225 fund this with money they would save on the wear and tear of current work?
I think since Grand and Gravois proposals may interfere with traffic at the complex
intersections, the proposed projects on Chouteau/ UPRR and Jefferson Ave / I-55 may be the
best routes. Judging by the input already received at Station #4, of your presentation, these
routes may not have as much neighborhood resistance concerning people's houses and
businesses. Folks don't really accept programs that may endanger their properties. Looking
at the photos, I believe these projects will be a welcome addition to St. Louis communities by
301 adding beauty and a pleasant, clean appearance to these areas.
Any lines into the CBD should be underground for traffic & safety reasons. I know that is more
expensive but it is important to do it right the first time. I'd rather it cost more & take longer but
302 develop a first rate transit system that eliminates safety & transit concerns.
303 Sounds well thought out with good potential to improve the neighborhoods involved!
304 All three sound good.
306 We need less lines on Highway 55 and more stops in residential city neighborhoods.
All seems to fit very well for the future. My only thought is if there is any fire or police
emergency in "inner" downtown, the trains from either north (coming south) or vice versa are
going to be trapped. I suggest that a single track (with possible one block stretch of double
track around Locust) be installed so that service could still be maintained. Hopefully also "in
307 some future" after this "line" is opened, a heritage trolley line could be run on a portion from

14th & Chouteau north to Natural Bridge.

The preferred alternatives appear to be the best of the alternatives available. The northside
alignment is basically the same as the one proposed in the 2000 MTIA, except for its ending
308 location. The 50 foot separation on UP alignment forces the Jefferson Alignment to the top.
The downtown deviation seems unnecessary, given the compact size of downtown.
311 Otherwise, the basic scheme seems fine.
On the preferred option for the southside, it would be great if it served Soulard. Is there a
possibility of it turning East at some point to enter Soulard? I would like to see both southside
lines built with the elimination of the stretch of Chouteau on the Chouteau UPRR line. I have
no opinion of the northside route, as I am unfamiliar with the area, but it would be preferred to
see lines built there as well. (An East & West line). I think they should all be planned at this
stage even if it takes 20 years to build them. It will inform the decisions of the next line to be
312 built.
315 The sooner the better.
They seem to make sense, although it would be nice if the downtown couplet/ loop could
316 extend a bit further west into downtown.
317 Acceptable.
Good routes. I like the Grand route on south side, but Jefferson is next best. Busses sure
would save a lot of money compared to those street level trains. I did not like how in
319 downtown there is no east to west loop. New track runs with the old north to south.
320 Use doors #1 & #6 on the SD 400s and SD 460s. Have brick laid in the track area on streets.

Comments

• I would like to see information on LRT for North County as well as north & south economic
opportunity for all communities.
• I did not comment on downtown and southside because I am not as familiar with those
areas.
• There are rail tracks just north of this area. Why can't the system tie into those tracks? The
tracks are just north of Lee Avenue.
• I would like to see a more extensive online presence for discussion of these topics.
• I am very excited. Jefferson / I-55 is absolutely the right decision for the southside.
• LRT station example #1 looks functional and urban. Streetscaping example #1 shows an
uninviting covered waiting area. Streetscaping example #3 is appealing and similar to
Kingshighway at BJC. Transit shelter example is unique and artistic, yet open and inviting.
• Some neighborhoods have very strong feelings about one route vs. another. The process for
determining the final route needs at least the same level of public involvement and more
transparency.
• For first 6 months of operation, have discounted monthly pass. Use advertising space on
trains to target people who work and have money to spend. Provide at least one advertising
space for non-profits. For first 3-6 months, provide extra security and signage of proper
activities while riding public transportation. If trouble makers find early in the game that they
will not be tolerated it will curb problems for years to come.
• Great Job! I am thrilled by the prospect.
• I would like to see the S. Jefferson route & the downtown parallel route.
• Q & A session for presentation went a bit long.
• I emailed this (open house) information on to 25+ people. The city of St. Louis is at a critical
juncture. Rehabs, initially mostly residential, are taking place along and around the Jefferson
line as proposed / suggested, the city is gaining population for the first time in 160 years, and
the perception of the city from both those living in the city and county (and other areas) is
beginning to turn the tide. Transit improvements and the resulting impacts positively affect
mobility, the quality and character of the built environment, the social welfare of the city's
residents and its visitors and foster economic development through TOD and increased
mobility. The Jefferson, 9th / 10th couplet and the Natural Bridge routes will encourage TOD
and are well suited for connectivity and neighborhood and citizen mobility.
• If I had not gotten on the mailing list at an earlier meeting, I would have missed this. Poorly
advertised! I don't feel this meeting was well advertised. I can't believe there weren't a lot
more people present. I only found out about the meeting because I attended an earlier
meeting and got on your mailing list. Do both southside routes! (Of course I realize the
money is a huge issue.)
• Better marketing of community meetings.
• This addition to the MetroLink system appears to be a stand alone type. Thus, St. Louis City
will have its own line for North-South transit. I can see that costs are going to require this
hybrid system.
• I said 3C #2 "worth attending" instead of "well worth attending" because I was disappointed
that it will probably be a long time before it comes out to South County or Jefferson County.
Highway 55 is getting so heavily traveled it is a hassle traveling to & from work - also
recreation time. Please consider helping us out in the south. Use of a microphone for your
speakers would have helped us hear them also not hearing people/workers talking in the
background making hearing at a max. Thanks to Russ and Ken for the info. Also, Amanda
gave good explanations while I was first walking around.

• I was surprised that there were no comments (nor were there any announcements) in the
daily St. Louis Post Dispatch.
• Once again I'd like to see a comprehensive plan before even one more line is built. This plan
should include possible streetcar and bus lines as well. So far the approach of planning one
line at time feels too piece meal. Can this study also recommend a comprehensive 20 year
plan for St. Louis?
• I just hope all these plans are put into effect!
• My main frustration is how long it seems to take to get any sort of transit built - years of
studies, environmental impacts, political wrangling, and finally construction time. People in
St. Louis love MetroLink. It should be obviously expand with a north/south line. What can we
do to make this happen faster? Good transit is integral in making cities livable!
• I disagree with developing a separate track system/ separate train fleet.
