Purpose of the Request for Proposal

As ACE approaches the end of its first decade of providing commuter rail service, the SJRRC is looking to develop a series of well-founded, realistic action plans to guide growth and expansion of the ACE service over the next 10 years. To assist in the process, SJRRC is seeking the services of qualified consultants to assist the Commission in formulating these plans, including:

  1. A thorough analysis of the rail corridor over which ACE service is currently operated to determine how existing ACE service can be improved and increased, including the feasibility of a direct connection to BART in Pleasanton, CA.

    (The subject of a previous RFP, the contract for which was awarded on June 23rd, 2006.)
     
  2. An examination of the prospects and possibilities for expanding SJRRC sponsored services including new services in the Central San Joaquin Valley, to Sacramento, within San Joaquin County and to Pittsburg/Oakland from Stockton and/or Tracy.

    (The subject of this RFP)
     
  3. 3. An analysis of passenger rail services and public transportation services of all modes to pinpoint innovative approaches, practices, methodologies and technological applications that can improve ACE service and the manner in which it is provided.

    (The subject of the third RFP in this series, which will be issued subsequent to the completion of the first and second studies.)
