"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

The programs enable people in dense urban areas to get from point A to point B by bike whenever they please.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area bikeshare programs will cost money to join, and you won’t be able to bring the bikes between the cities, only to locations within each city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What’s the status of the program?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A vendor is expected to be chosen by May and a staggered rollout will occur in August. There are a few different vendors in this space, but it’s anyone’s guess who the top candidates are. In the spring we’ll know what the bikes will look like, how the payment systems will work and other details. Right now they’re evaluating locations for the stations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How would the system work?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You will be able to sign up for a membership for a day, week, month or year. Typically the memberships are tied to a credit card, so you’ll slide your card, unlock the bike, ride it and drop it off at any station within the system. I know they’re also looking at giving users an option to pay without a credit card.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So it’ll work like City CarShare? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s similar but not the same. With City CarShare you have to drop off the car at the same place you pick it up. In a bikeshare program, it’s about making any trip on a whim from Point A to Point B, where you can leave it at point B.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The barriers to getting your own bike are pretty low. What do you think the demand for a program like this will be like? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The regional network is centered around Caltrain stations so that commuters will be able to use the bikes for the first and last miles of their trips. A lot of times, for whatever reason, people don’t want to bring their bikes aboard Caltrain, so they have to walk or take transit on one or both ends of the trip. They won’t have to do that with bikeshare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What they’ve found in other cities is that these programs increase cycling overall. People who otherwise would not have considered riding a bike will ride one. Or they’re downtown and haven’t brought it with them, they see it on the street very visibly as an option and they’re more likely to ride it. You might be in downtown San Francisco and get off BART, and there’s some place you want to get to within a mile, but taking transit or walking would take too long. These bikes will make it a lot easier to make that short trip.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, the bikes are designed to be much safer, more comfortable and easier to use than the bikes most people have. If you can’t bring your bike into your workplace, many people don’t want to risk leaving it locked outside. If you use a bikeshare bike, you won’t have to worry about it being stolen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What are some other cities with bikeshare programs?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of the better-known systems are in Paris, London, Copenhagen, Oslo, Barcelona. China has the biggest one. In the U.S., New York is in the process of launching one right now, and the first major program was Capital Bike Share in Washington D.C., which has been very successful. There are also programs in Minneapolis and Denver.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How did the idea for this program come about?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bike advocates have been pushing for it, and community leaders have seen the success other cities have had with the programs. San Francisco wanted to launch one around 2009 in a public-private partnership with Clear Channel, which backed out. That system was criticized as being too small; it would have had just 50 bikes. You need a critical mass to be successful, and the program in San Francisco will have 500 bikes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Santa Clara VTA was also going to launch one in 2010, but the cities got together and VTA decided to integrate their system into a regionwide one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Where will San Francisco’s bike stations be? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The preliminary map of proposed stations shows them primarily in downtown San Francisco. That will go through more internal planning, then public hearings and other community outreach. They’ll determine the stations using metrics that have found to be the most successful in other cities in terms of how far apart they need to be in order to be effective.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is a much smaller pilot program than in the other major cities that have instituted these. They’re keeping it within a certain amount of density within the launch area. That’s the key to success, they’ve found: the density of the area that the network serves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So during the pilot, they’re homing in on the densest part of the city, taking into account characteristics that make an area right for sharing. That largely means commercial streets and transit accessibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Besides downtown, they’ve vetted some other areas. You potentially could see stations in the future in the Inner Sunset because it’s a centralized transit hub and a commercial and tourist destination because of Golden Gate Park. The Mission and some of the BART stations like Glen Park are also being considered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://sf.streetsblog.org/2012/03/21/bike-share-launch-pushed-back-to-august-to-give-bidders-more-time/\">More coverage on Streetsblog San Francisco\u003c/a>\u003c/em>…\u003c/p>\n\n",

That largely means commercial streets and transit accessibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Besides downtown, they’ve vetted some other areas. You potentially could see stations in the future in the Inner Sunset because it’s a centralized transit hub and a commercial and tourist destination because of Golden Gate Park.

It was incumbent on us to go back to the legislature and say we've looked at all those basic questions. I believe, having come onto this board as somewhat of an agnostic on the question of high-speed rail, that it, in fact, absolutely makes sense for California to – particularly when we look at the growing population, the pressures that population's growth is going to put on our transportation systems, and the cost of building and operating alternatives. Fundamentally, high-speed rail makes sense for California, continues to make sense and is the right thing to do, we just have to do it the right way.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">I believe, having come onto this board as somewhat of an agnostic on the question of high-speed rail, that it, in fact, absolutely makes sense for California..\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>RACHAEL MYROW\u003c/strong>: As far as you understand it, what are the latest cost and ridership estimates?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>DAN RICHARD\u003c/strong>: We're updating the cost estimates and it's very important to note that we deliberately did something in the last report, which was to not just express the cost in terms of what it would have cost to build it in 2010, which is the numbers that people had been using, and it's valid to use those for comparative purposes, but in fact we wanted to be honest with people about what it would cost to build this over the next 25 years in fully inflated dollars. And that's where the $98 billion number came from.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, one third of that cost is inflationary effects, so to the extent that we can build the project more quickly, it's going to cost much less. On the ridership, the shorthand answer is that under all the conditions we can forecast, using very conservative assumptions for fuel cost and population growth and things like that, we generate enough revenue to break even and to operate the system as all these high-speed rail systems are around the world operating at a profit. Now, that's after the capital cost has been expended and we believe that will be the case in California as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=w7n9I4_dRMc\">This Week in Northern California: High-Speed Rail Under Siege\u003c/a>\u003c/div>\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center\">\u003ciframe src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/w7n9I4_dRMc\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"400\" height=\"233\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>RACHAEL MYROW\u003c/strong>: So what kind of ridership numbers are you envisioning?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>DAN RICHARD\u003c/strong>: If you look out to 2040, it's about 38 million riders a year, which is actually a pretty modest number compared to similar systems around the globe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>RACHAEL MYROW\u003c/strong>: 38 million riders a year, that sounds like the population of California.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">On ridership... under all the conditions we can forecast...we generate enough revenue to break even and to operate the system.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>DAN RICHARD\u003c/strong>: If you look at France, if you look at Japan, if you look at Taiwan, their annual ridership numbers are close to double the current population figures of those countries. To get to that ridership number, less than three percent of the total trips between San Francisco and Los Angeles that are currently going by car or airplane would have to go by high-speed rail. It's like two and a half percent. So, that's a pretty small mode shift when you're offering people what is in today’s dollars an $83 trip in two hours and forty minutes from San Francisco to Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>RACHAEL MYROW\u003c/strong> Some changes to High-Speed Rail's business plan have been mandated by the federal government, including the string attached to federal funds that the first leg of the system has to be Merced to Bakersfield and back. It could be a potential economic spur for the Central Valley but it also seems a potential existential threat to the success of the entire project.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>DAN RICHARD\u003c/strong> At this point I've become convinced that, regardless of the federal requirements, it is in fact the right place for us to start. It is the only place where we can test the trains at their ultimate speeds of 220mph. We can't do that by putting trains between San Francisco and San Jose or Los Angeles and Anaheim. So we need a place where we can show that these trains can operate safely at those speeds under the train control systems we're putting in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other thing is the shared use of tracks like on the Peninsula. That means that we already know the corridors and the rights of way that we would be using in areas like San Francisco to San Jose or Los Angeles to Anaheim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We don't have any right of way at this point in the Valley, and the value of acquiring that right of way is around $400 million. The Valley is a very fast-growing part of our state, so the longer we wait to build there, the more difficult it's going to be to acquire the land that we need. So there are a number of reasons why it does make sense to start in the Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The real issue for people has been the concern that if we couldn't get any more funds, well, what is left there. And that's one reason why we’ve also been engaged in recent discussions about getting early advanced investments in Cal Train upgrade and in similar systems in Southern California so that we'll be doing more than just working in the Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>RACHAEL MYROW\u003c/strong>: You used to serve on the board of the Bay Area Rapid Transit System and right around the time they were trying to connect the city with the San Francisco International Airport. Do you see similarities with that experience and the challenge you see now?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>DAN RICHARD\u003c/strong>: Very much so. I served on the BART board for 12 years, and there are a couple of really important parallels between high-speed rail and BART. First is, we almost did not have BART. It came down to one vote of one county supervisor in Contra Costa County in the 60's, but for that one vote, the whole Bay Area would look different than it does today if we didn’t have BART.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second thing was that I was very involved in the construction of BART to the San Francisco Airport and getting the funds for that. We heard many of the same things like 'Where are you going to get the money? Why don't you do it this way or that way?' So I have really been through this before in a smaller scale and my view is that if the fundamentals make sense then it's really important to have civic leaders come together and persevere to get things done.\u003c/p>\n\n",

So, that's a pretty small mode shift when you're offering people what is in today’s dollars an $83 trip in two hours and forty minutes from San Francisco to Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>RACHAEL MYROW\u003c/strong> Some changes to High-Speed Rail's business plan have been mandated by the federal government, including the string attached to federal funds that the first leg of the system has to be Merced to Bakersfield and back. It could be a potential economic spur for the Central Valley but it also seems a potential existential threat to the success of the entire project.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>DAN RICHARD\u003c/strong> At this point I've become convinced that, regardless of the federal requirements, it is in fact the right place for us to start. It is the only place where we can test the trains at their ultimate speeds of 220mph. We can't do that by putting trains between San Francisco and San Jose or Los Angeles and Anaheim. So we need a place where we can show that these trains can operate safely at those speeds under the train control systems we're putting in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The other thing is the shared use of tracks like on the Peninsula. That means that we already know the corridors and the rights of way that we would be using in areas like San Francisco to San Jose or Los Angeles to Anaheim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We don't have any right of way at this point in the Valley, and the value of acquiring that right of way is around $400 million. The Valley is a very fast-growing part of our state, so the longer we wait to build there, the more difficult it's going to be to acquire the land that we need. So there are a number of reasons why it does make sense to start in the Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The real issue for people has been the concern that if we couldn't get any more funds, well, what is left there. And that's one reason why we’ve also been engaged in recent discussions about getting early advanced investments in Cal Train upgrade and in similar systems in Southern California so that we'll be doing more than just working in the Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>RACHAEL MYROW\u003c/strong>: You used to serve on the board of the Bay Area Rapid Transit System and right around the time they were trying to connect the city with the San Francisco International Airport. Do you see similarities with that experience and the challenge you see now?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>DAN RICHARD\u003c/strong>: Very much so. I served on the BART board for 12 years, and there are a couple of really important parallels between high-speed rail and BART. First is, we almost did not have BART. It came down to one vote of one county supervisor in Contra Costa County in the 60's, but for that one vote, the whole Bay Area would look different than it does today if we didn’t have BART.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

We heard many of the same things like 'Where are you going to get the money? Why don't you do it this way or that way?' So I have really been through this before in a smaller scale and my view is that if the fundamentals make sense then it's really important to have civic leaders come together and persevere to get things done.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
