Possible Phased Approach to Move Transit Center out of Renton Civic Core
Phased change
Cost
Consultant
proposed
timeline
Metro possible timeline
Route 101: Move
terminal to SRP&R
Metro making
$150,000 capital
improvement to SRP&R
n/a Planned for March 2018. Outreach
will begin in late summer/early fall
2018.
Phase 1: Move
layover west of
the RTC, on
streets out of the
civic core
$1M annually
(6,000 – 8,000 annual
service hours,
3‐4% of current service)
Fall 2018 Fall 2018 earliest possible, if:
‐ no ordinance is required
‐ operating costs are secured
‐ layover zones are viable
‐ needed capital improvements to
layover zones can be made
Phase 2: Move all
routes’ layover to
SRP&R
$3M annually
(15,000 – 20,000
annual service hours,
8‐11% of current
service)
Late 2018 /
early 2019
Requires King County Ordinance.
March 2019 possible, if:
‐ operating costs are secured
‐ viable layover zones are found
adjacent to SRP&R
‐ needed capital improvements can
be made
Phase 3: Vacate
RTC access road
Needs further
evaluation
2019‐2020 Needs further evaluation
Requirements and Considerations to Move Layover to South Renton P&R
Require reroute to term at SRP&R: Route 101
Requires $150,000 capital improvement for layover zone
Reduced direct service between SRP&R and Seattle. 500+ riders per day board Route 101 at the
SRP&R, and would have at least 12 minutes additional travel time between Renton and Seattle
o Expect crowding and passengers left behind on Route 102, unless we reduce peak
frequency on Route 101 to fund additional Route 102 service
Route 101 no longer serves stops on Rainer Avenue S. Currently at these stops, there are 235
weekday boardings + 315 alightings on Route 101
Require extension and extra operating cost to term at SRP&R: 105, 106, 107, 240, 342
Layover locations uncertain, ideas need to be vetted and likely require capital improvements
$3 M annual operating cost, or 8‐11% service reduction to fund the extra travel time
Possible truncation at SRP&R and no longer serve downtown Renton: 153, 169
Passengers forced to transfer to reach downtown Renton
DART routes that lay over: 907, 908
Extra travel time could mean reduced frequency, or there may be a potential to continue to lay
downtown at Williams and hook with each other to preserve frequency
