PROcESS
The initial set of alternative concepts were guided by the
Project need and Purpose (described in Station 2) and the
feedback collected in the March/April 2011 Scoping Sessions
(see Station 4). The Study Team identifed origins and
destinations (see Travel Markets graphs below) that defne
the travel markets in the Study Area. Then, they determined
which markets contributed to the project need and which
corridors currently served those travel markets. The Study
Team then identifed improvements to the corridors or new
corridors that could serve the expected travel demand.

la Estacin 4). El Equipo de Estudio identifc los puntos
de origen y los destinos (note las grfcas de los Mercados

el rea de estudio. Luego, se determina cuales mercados
contribuyeron a la necesidad del proyecto y cuales corredores
sirvieron esos mercados de viajes actualmente. El Equipo

detailed evaluation criteria
which would respond to each
objective. The criteria would be
used later to screen the initial
alternatives in the Performance

BUS RAPid TRAnSiT And lighT RAil TRAnSiT
Brt
bus Rapid Transit (bRT) and Light
Rail Transit (LRT) provide a higher
level of service than standard buses.
bRT involves traditional bus service,
generally in dedicated lanes (can be
shared with HOv) to provide better
travel times. LRT runs on a dedicated
right-of-way, but generally within the
street. The Metro Gold Line is a good
example.
Autobuses de Trnsito Rpido
(bRT) y Trenes de Cercanas (LRT)
proporcionan un nivel de servicio ms
alto que el de autobuses estndares.
bRT usa el servicio de autobs
tradicional, generalmente en carriles
exclusivos (se pueden compartir
con HOv) para asegurar viajes de
menos tiempo. LRT utiliza un carril
exclusivo con prioridad de paso, pero
generalmente en los carriles generales
de la calle. La Lnea Metro Dorada es
un buen ejemplo.

highWAY/ARTERiAl cOncEPTS
Caltrans has a broad defnition for highway that
includes many functional classifcations other than
freeway. Some people also use the word arterial. This
category is focused on higher-capacity surface streets
that serve both regional and local travel. Most have four
or more lanes (two or more in each direction). These
roads have signalized intersections, with occasional
grade separations. Rail crossings are typically grade-
separated. Potential alternatives will improve existing
roads to increase capacity. Highway/Arterial alternatives
could include some new alignment, but usually not.
Improvements could include widening, improving
intersections, and/or adding grade separations.
These alternative concepts do not include local street
improvements or TSM/TDM.
Caltrans tiene una defnicin amplia de 'autopista' que
incluye muchas clasifcaciones funcionales distintas de la
autopista. Algunas personas usan la palabra 'arteria. Esta
categora se centra en las calles de la superfcie de mayor
capacidad que sirven tanto para viajes regionales y locales.
La mayora tienen cuatro o ms carriles (dos o ms en
cada direccin). Estos caminos tienen intersecciones
con seales, con separaciones de desnivel. Los cruces de
ferrocarril suelen ser a desnivel. Posibles alternativas para
mejorar los caminos existentes y aumentar la capacidad.
Alternativas para las carreteras / arterias podran incluir
alguna nueva alineacin, pero no usualmente. Las
mejoras podran incluir la ampliacin, la mejora de las
intersecciones, y / o la adicin de separaciones a desnivel.
Estos conceptos alternativos no incluyen mejoras locales

SR-710 Study
Several questions arose during the course of the All
Communities Convening Meetings (held in March 2012) and
the Community Liaison Council Meetings (held in April and
May 2012) specifcally regarding the alternative concepts.
Here is a sampling of those questions along with responses.
Varias preguntas han surgido en el transcurso de las
Reuniones Comunitarias (que se llevarn a cabo en marzo del
2012) y las Reuniones de Consejo de Enlace Comunitario (que
se llevaron a cabo en abril y mayo del 2012) especfcamente
con respecto a los alternativas conceptuales. Esta es una
muestra de las preguntas mas frecuentes junto con las
respuestas que se discutieron.
Question:
What is the criteria being used to evaluate the alternative
concepts?
preGuntA:

por ley para demostrar que existe la necesidad, aunque se
realizen los proyectos programados sean completados. la
evaluacin no incluye el estudio actual en la lista de los
proyectos. vea la estacin 5 para ms detalles.
Question:
do all the freeway alternative concepts include a tunnel?
Will there be any surface freeway options?
AnsWer:
not all the freeway alternatives include a tunnel. As
shown in station 5, three of the four freeway alternatives
include a tunnel. one of the freeway options is a
depressed meridian/surface option.
preGuntA:
"todas las alternativas conceptuales incluyen tnel
para la autopista? Habr opciones de autopista en la
superfcie? "
respuestA:
no todas las alternativas de la autopista incluyen un
tnel. como se demuestra en la estacin 5, tres de las
cuatro alternativas para la autopista incluyen un tnel.
una opcin es considerada como autopista meridiana
deprimida en la superfcie.
Question:
What will the draft eir/eis address in terms of tunneling
options?
AnsWer:
the draft eir/eis will provide information on impacts
and benefts associated with a tunnel, including, but
not limited to, ventilation concepts; location of portals;
fre-life-safety system; duration of tunnel construction;
disposal of soil cuttings; design for seismic activity; and
cost.
preGuntA:
"Qu har el estudio eir/eis en trminos de dirigir las

Question:
Were surface options eliminated by legislation?
AnsWer:
to our knowledge, the surface options have not been
eliminated by legislation. in 2011, Assembly Bill 751
was approved by the california legislature and signed by
Governor Jerry Brown. AB 751 repeals provisions allowing
caltrans to build sr 710 without frst securing a freeway
agreement with the afected local jurisdictions. in other
words, caltrans could still consider building a surface or
above-ground freeway; however, it would require that it
enter into an agreement with any afected jurisdiction.
preGuntA:
"se eliminaron opciones de superfcie eliminados por
algn tipo de legislacin?"
respuestA:
A nuestro entender, las opciones de superfcie no sido
eliminadas por legislacin. en 2011, el proyecto de ley
751 (AB 751) fue aprobado por la Asamblea de california
y frmado por el Gobernador Jerry Brown. AB 751 AB
751 revoca provisiones que permiten a caltrans construir
la ruta estatal 710 sin primero asegurar un acuerdo con
las jurisdicciones locales afectadas. en otras palabras,
caltrans an podra considerar construir una autopista en
la superfcie o elevada; pero, tendr que entrar en acuerdo
con las jurisdicciones afectadas
