What is the PATCO Philadelphia Waterfront Transit Expansion Alternatives Analysis?

0

This study is an Alternatives Analysis, or AA, which is the first phase of project development for major transit investments that seek federal funding from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). The study consists of a purpose and needs analysis; the development of alternatives that address that need; technical work including ridership estimates, conceptual design, environmental screening and cost estimates for these alternatives; alternative evaluation; and selection of a preferred alternative. Detailed project information is compiled and submitted to the FTA at the conclusion of the AA with a request to proceed into the preliminary engineering phase of the project.
