Rail Transit Maintenance Facility Purpose/Description Transit maintenance facilities are required for the storage, maintenance, and upkeep of transit vehicles. They typically include vehicle and supply storage, a maintenance shop(s), offices, and employee parking. Application to the I-70 East Corridor For the I-70 East Corridor, we will evaluate potential maintenance facility sites for the various transit technologies that are evaluated in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (i.e., commuter rail and/or light rail). Commuter Rail For commuter rail, we will be evaluating options for sharing a maintenance facility with other planned commuter rail transit corridors including the US 36 Corridor to Boulder and the North Metro Corridor to Thornton. A centralized maintenance facility, which is shared among corridors, allows RTD to reduce costs and operate its transit system more efficiently. Light Rail For light rail, we will be working with the other light rail corridors to see if a new facility is required and where it would be located. Light rail technology does not share maintenance facilities with commuter rail. Existing RTD Light Rail Maintenance Facility The information shown on this exhibit highlights conceptual work in progress and is subject to change as the environmental impact statement process continues. A cooperative effort between FHWA, FTA, CDOT, RTD, and Denver Commuter Rail Central Maintenance Facility Carriles de Transporte Central de Mantenimiento Site Requirements Several locations for a commuter rail central maintenance facility were identified. The site requirements for a shared commuter rail maintenance facility include: ' 70-90 acres ' Ability to serve the I-70 East Corridor, ' Ability for expansion ' Two or more points of exclusive US 36 Corridor, and/or the North Metro Corridor ' Close to Denver Union Station ' Shaped to accommodate required features RTD rail access ' Minimal conflict with freight operations ' Acceptable roadway access Requisitos de Sitio Varias locaciones para una área central de mantenimiento para los carriles de transporte rápido fueron identificados. Los requisitos para compartir el área de mantenimiento para los carriles de transporte rapido incluyen: ' 70 - 90 acres ' Habilidad de servir los Corredores ' Habilidad para expansión ' Dos o más puntos de acceso Este I-70, US 36, y el Corredor North Metro ' Cerca de Denver Union Station ' Formado para dar cabidad a las características requeridas exclusivo para los ferrocarriles de RTD ' Conflicto mínimo de operaciones de flete ' Acceso aceptable para la calzada The information shown on this exhibit highlights conceptual work in progress and is subject to change as the environmental impact statement process continues.

Two levels of screening have been completed to reduce commuter rail locations down to the three that are recommended for evaluation in the DEIS. The screening criteria that were used to eliminate some of the locations are shown below. 1st Level Screening Criteria (Transportation function) ' Located within 5 miles (20 minutes) of Denver Union Station ' Meets size and configuration requirements ' Rail access to site is at-grade ' On RTD rail corridor ' Does not require crossing of freight tracks ' Does not require closing of major roadway ' Does not have substantial environmental impacts nd 2 Level Screening Criteria (Site relationship/compatibility) ' Current on-site freight operations/functions can be relocated ' Does not require new infrastructure for site access ' Significant environmental issues ' Requires less property acquisitions ' Requires less roadway track crossings ' Has minimal impact to current traffic patterns The information shown on this exhibit highlights conceptual work in progress and is subject to change as the environmental impact statement process continues.
