Alameda County Transportation Improvement Authority <br />Special Transportation for Seniors and People with Disabilities <br />We continue to "tweak" the shuttle service to make it more efficient and meet rider needs. <br />We recently altered the shuttle bus route to the Washington Manor commercial center <br />providing access to an additional grocery store, bank, hair dresser, branch library, etc. <br />3. Taxi Voucher Program: <br />San Leandro was included in a 2008 Gap Grant submitted by ACTIA to expand the taxi <br />voucher program to Central County. We are hopeful that the grant funds will be available <br />and we are anxious to implement the taxi pilot project in San Leandro, expanding <br />transportation options and same day service to San Leandro paratranist riders. <br />Summary of Cost Cutting Measures: <br />1. Fee increases for Shuttle, CTC and OTMT <br />2. Reduce Shuttle hours by 3 hours/day <br />3. Eliminate service on holidays <br />4. Salary savings by reducing the hours of the part-time Paratransit Coordinator <br />5 . Eliminate Group Trips <br />Grants: <br />In hopes of reinstating the service reductions, we are investigating all grant options including <br />opportunities provided through economic stimulus funds. We are planning to apply for a <br />Gap Grant for same-day service during the 2010-11 Gap grant cycle. <br />Please complete the spreadsheet "MB Annual Program Application Cover Attachment 1" <br />Identify objectives for the proposed services. As much as possible these should be <br />measurable in numerical terms, and should be accompanied by a baseline measure for the <br />existing service. For example, you might target increasing the number of trips provided from <br />10,000 projected in the current year to 15,000 in the plan year. Use the following table, <br />expanding the boxes vertically as needed. <br />Resnonse• <br />Oh'ecti~ve B~aseiige '>~a._, et <br />Individual Demand Res onse Tri s -Curb-to-Curb 4200 4200 <br />Non Demand Res onse -Shuttle 8500 7300 <br />MSL -Out-of--Town Medical 1100 1100 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />C:\Documents and Settings\kmyers\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.0utlook\OES 1NYN2\MB Annual Program <br />Application Cover FY091 O.doc <br />Page 6 of 18 <br />
