Also, I live in Dallas. Dallas is less dense yet they have DART. It is pretty stupid to oppose LRTs, considering the traffic along 5.

Hello Javier, The bus driver does not give fair tickets. Those do need to be purchased online in advance.

OK thanks for the info

But how come you guys are only doing four routes because my location was Santa Ana

Buenos días, El pase del día cuesta $4.50 si lo compra en la aplicación o en tienda. Si lo compra en el autobús, le sale $5

I hope they build an LRT with top speed of 65 mph that runs from Brea Mall to John Wayne Airport. Via Cal State Fullerton, Angel Stadium, The Outlets @ Orange, Santa Ana College, Bristol Corridor & South Coast Plaza.

Hello, In order to see the senior fare in the OC Mobile app, you must have a senior reduced fare ID card with OCTA.

No, transform the street car to an LRT with a top speed of 65 mph. OC already has articulate buses that max at 40 mph on streets. A streetcar is painfully slow.

Hello Andrew, for more information on where the route is please see link below: octa.net/programs-projects/projects/rail-projects/oc-streetcar/overview/

Love to see them incorporating more walkable and bike able infrastructure!

... as is traffic-signal prioritization.

Yes, I'm confused how the streetcar is more effective than a bus in this scenario.

@@jbudlo2 yes this will be just as slow as buses unless they’re given traffic light priority. The only benefit I see in the streetcar is higher capacity as of now.

💯 and maybe Orange Outlets, Main Place Mall, South coast plaza, Segerstrom, UCI?

@@andrewkeller1117 I lived on OC from 2014 to 2016. The county has the population for LRT. It amazes me that city like Dallas has less population, already has the DART train. Literally the DART buses are empty, Estimated wait time for buses is literally every 30 mins in city limits. Having lived in OC, many folks are against public transit, then they move here to Dallas and depend on the DART train like they have no other means, thats very pathetic. My recommendation is to ignore people. Many people here are against public transit, then the suburb folks ride the train to go to the State fair, concerts, downtown dallas events, etc. Trust me people do not know until you put it out there.

After living in OC from Santa Ana, Fullerton, Brea & La Habra. I created several lines. There should be at least 3 lines. Line 1, from La Habra to John Wayne Aiport. Line 1 Via Downtown Brea, Cal state Fullerton, Angel Stadium, Anaheim Transit center, Outlets AT orange, Santa college, Bristol Corridor, South Coast Plaza & JohnWayne. Train is elevated and runs on freeway medium top speed is 68 mph. Going at 45 mph in shorter stops.

Late response, Line 2 will run along Harbor Blvd, similar to Skytrain, it will be elevated. This line along with line 1 will terminate at Beach Blvd by westmount Apts in La Habra. The lines will run above the existing lines. Then line 2 will split southward on Harbor Blvd, make a station on imperial and Harbor. The line can then go to Fullerton College & Downtown Fullerton w/ Fullerton transit. Then Orangethorpe Shopping, La Palma park, Downtown Anaheim, Disneyland, Chapman, Great Wolf Lodge, Santa Ana Harbor Blvd, terminating at Balboa Island. Unfortunately this is just my imagination.

@@andrewkeller1117I agree south coast plaza, UCI and great park would be a great addition

That’s something I think they will be dealing with later on. If not, you can always write a letter about this to OCTA. They’ll probably find a a way to deal with that

Well its obviously not a Chinese bullet train. Yankess falling behind big time! 😂

Arrow is not a streetcar but otherwise I do agree.

Tucson, Portland, and Kansas City seem to be doing okay having their street car integrated into existing traffic lanes 😊

@@bendayhoe it’s just we have the same issue in Dowtown la where the train runs on the streets and has to wait for cars. And it adds another 10 minutes to the trip. That time could be saved it the tracks were buried. Or separate from cars lanes.

Metrolink is adopting pulse scheduling which should be adopted sometime this year (I think). For the OC line, train trips will increase from 20 to 30 per weekday. They are adding in more SB trips in the morning and NB trips in the evening to fill in the day. It's definitely a start! Late night Metrolink would be amazing, especially for Disney trips!

It already serves the Santa Ana Transit Station where you could use Metrolink to make the connection. Wouldn't it be redundant to have it serve the same stations as Metrolink? I would personally prefer it to serve popular destinations such as Outlets at Orange, Main Place Mall, Hospitals in Orange, South Coast Plaza, John Wayne airport and maybe UCI?

you can see all their intended uses in the general plan’s land use element online
