Andrew Greenwood, Investigations Division Commander:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>On 4/25/12, at about 4:30 PM, two bicycle riders riding east on Tunnel Road were struck by a black vehicle driving east on Tunnel Road. The driver of the black vehicle did not stop after the collision, as required by law. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the riders had a camera mounted on his handlebars, and the collision was captured on video. That video is on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3LatOGCWVc and has shown up on other websites as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The riders, both of whom were wearing helmets, suffered from abrasions from the contact with the roadway, but did not require hospitalization for their injuries. A passerby called 9-1-1, and the riders were seen and treated by Oakland Fire. Their clothing and bicycles were significantly damaged as a result of the collision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The riders reported the collision at the Berkeley Police Department Wednesday later that evening. Officers began their investigation of the incident.

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>",
