Downtown Riverfront Streetcar Project Capital Investment Program Project Profiles: FY 2017
The Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG), in collaboration with the Sacramento Regional Transit District (RT), City of Sacramento, City of West Sacramento, and Yolo County Transportation District, proposes to construct a streetcar line between West Sacramento and the Midtown District in Sacramento. The project includes the construction of 16 stations and an operation and maintenance facility as well as the purchase of six streetcars. Local officials plan to establish a new nonprofit organization comprised of SACOG, the two cities, and the two transit operators that would establish fares, budget, security, etc. RT will operate the service every 15 minutes on weekdays and every 20 minutes on weekday evenings and weekends.
