2 INTRODUCTION
FDOT, in cooperation with the Central Florida Regional Transportation Authority (LYNX),METROPLAN Orlando, and Volusia, Seminole, Orange, Osceola Counties and The City ofOrlando is proposing to introduce commuter rail transit service in the four-county corridor thatextends north and south of Orlando, Florida.
The Central Florida Commuter Rail Transit (CFCRT) corridor generally parallels Interstate 4 andUS 17/92, and contains some of the areas most intensely and densely developed land use. Thewidth of the study area generally includes the major north-south arterial roadways servingdowntown Orlando and other major activity centers, principally Interstate 4, US Route 17/92, andSR 434/Forest City Road in the northern portion of the corridor and State Routes 421, 441, 423,527, and the Florida Turnpike in the southern portion of the corridor.
The CFCRT project uses an existing and active Class IV freight CSXT A-Line railway right-of-way (ROW) for rail operations and property adjacent to the ROW for station site parking, park nride and bus circulation. The new commuter rail service will be implemented in three phases.
The first phase is the 31 mile long north corridor and the second phase is the south corridor thatwhen combined are 49 miles long and referred to as the Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA). Thethird phase is a twelve mile extension of the LPA further north which defines the 61 mile long FullBuild Alternative. The first phase is also known as the initial operating segment (IOS) and isproposed to be operational by 2012 and the second phase operational by 2014.
The Full Build Alternative extends from the Deland Amtrak station in Deland in the north toPoinciana Industrial Park in the south. A total of seventeen (17) stations are in the Full BuildAlternative (of the Environmental Assessment) shown on the next page. The proposed serviceplan would provide 15-minute bi-directional service during morning and evening peak periodsand 60-minute service in the mid-day, Monday through Friday. The primary infrastructureimprovements include a new railway operations signal system and 40 miles of new 2nd track
bringing the total double track to approximately 58.3 miles in the 61 mile corridor. The Full Buildwas evaluated in the Environmental Assessment.
The LPA north terminus would be the DeBary station and the south terminus will be PoincianaIndustrial Park. A total of sixteen (16) stations are in the LPA. The route length is 49 miles withapproximately 31 new miles of 2nd track and a new railway operations signal system. Theproposed service plan is for 15-minute bidirectional service during the morning and afternoonpeak periods and 60-minute midday service, Monday through Friday.
The IOS is 31 miles long with 12 stations between DeBary station and Orlando Sand Lake Roadstation. The IOS has approximately 18 miles of additional 2nd track being added to the existing11 miles of double track. The south corridor would extend the IOS from the Sand Lake station to
Poinciana Industrial Park station. There are approximately 5 miles of existing double track in thesouth with 13 new miles proposed.

The PMP is recognized as a living document, one that must evolve as progress is madeby FDOT on its Program and on the Project in particular. The description of the Project,the phases of development, the tools for project management, control, and the bases ofdesign and operation evolves. The PMP must be updated as the Project develops.Updates to the PMP will be reviewed and approved in the same manner as the original
version.
2.1 CFCRT Description
A Full Funding Grant Agreement (FFGA) between FDOT and the FTA establishes thefunding for the IOS. Preliminary Engineering Design began in March, 2007 andConstruction for the Project is scheduled to begin by September 2009. The estimatedrevenue operation date for the IOS May 2012 within an accelerated target date in2011and for the south segment of the LPA the estimated operations date is 2014.
This 49 mile LPA Project is expected to be designed and constructed using standardFDOT procurement methods and contracts. Track, signal and station construction will be
coordinated closely with the other principal users of the corridor (CSXT and Amtrak).
The Construction scope of the 49 mile LPA Project entails:
The installation of 31.3 miles of second mainline track positioned within the existingright-of-way (existing sidings will be incorporated into the track design). This includes16 new #20 crossovers and 4 new #20 turnouts and 7 miles of existing trackreconstruction;
Replacement of the existing wayside signal system throughout the entire 49 miles,plus 19 new interlockings (control points) and radio controlled communicationssystem;
Design and construction of 16 new stations (eleven with parking lots and five withoutparking lots). A standard station includes two 300 x 14 concrete platforms withcanopies and amenities, Bus bay parking and circulation, a kiss-and-ride drop offareas, entrance/egress, etc all vary by station site;
Upgrades to the existing at-grade crossings at potentially 110 locations.Approximately 54 will be impacted by the addition of the 2nd track;
Vehicle Storage and Maintenance Facility and Dispatch/Control Center at Rand Yard,as well as end of the line midday storage and layover facilities at DeBary Station,Poinciana Industrial Park Station and Sand Lake Road Station;
Construct a total of 900 of new trestle bridge for 2nd track spread over 7 locationsplus replace approximately 300 of the existing timber trestle.
Procurement of rolling stock, which will be accomplished through separateprocurement.
The Project estimated cost for the IOS is $357, 223,000 (YOE) at the revenue operationsdate, May 2012.

2.2 FDOT History and Overview
This section provides a brief history and overview of FDOT, describes the financing ofoperating costs and capital improvements, identifies capital improvement priorities, andaddresses implementation of various segments of FTA funded capital improvementProjects.
This section establishes the basis for the classification of the Project, based on theproject cost and responsibilities identified and assigned to FDOT. Project classification isused throughout the PMP to reference the policies and procedures to be used in themanagement of projects.
2.2.1 History
The development of CFCRT service along this corridor has been the topic of severalstudies. The Project Feasibility Report (1992) by the Central Florida Commuter RailAuthority (CFCRA), and the Regional Systems Plan adopted by LYNX in 1994 examinedthe feasibility of providing transit service via various technologies in several corridors
around the Central Florida area. Based on these and other studies, the Central FloridaNorth-South Commuter Corridor Alternatives Analysis, completed in 2004, identified thecommuter rail alternative and various end points for the project within the north-southcorridor, and evaluated the potential impacts of such a project.
Notable measures taken during more than a decade of planning in the corridor include:
Project Feasibility Report, finalized in March of 1992 by the CFCRA, and theRegional Systems Plan, adopted by LYNX in 1994. The Regional Systems Planincluded approximately 52 miles of Light Rail Transit, 105 miles of Commuter Rail
Transit, an increase to a bus fleet of 600 vehicles, and implementation of sevenactivity center circulators.
Commuter Rail project given Federal authorization in 1998 as a component of theCentral Florida Rail System in the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century(TEA-21).
Volusia County Preliminary Rail Feasibility Study in 1999 looked at the potential ofCFCRT service between downtown Orlando and DeLand. Subsequently, LYNX staffprepared a technical assessment on the potential of extending the service south tothe Kissimmee and Celebration areas.
A proposed 14-mile segment of LRT was rejected by the Orange CountyCommission in J anuary 2000. Work began on the CFCRT component of the CentralFlorida Rail Transit System as the CFCRT project.
Central Florida North-South Commuter Corridor Alternatives Analysis completed inmid-2004, identified Full Build CFCRT between DeLand and Poinciana Boulevardand recommended LPA between DeBary in Volusia County and Poinciana Boulevardin Osceola County.
The CFCRT project was included in the METROPLAN ORLANDO Year 2025 LRTPlan adopted in J une 2005.
Volusia County MPO 2025 Cost Feasible LRTP includes commuter rail from SaxonBoulevard Extension to Downtown Orlando November 2005.

These major planning studies have provided the basis for the development of thecommuter rail system from DeLand to Poinciana Industrial Park.
The CFCRT project, the regions top transit priority project, runs parallel to Interstate 4,which is Central Floridas Main Street and US 17-92, the regions primary north-southarterial, and contains the regions most intensely and densely developed land use. This
project connects the regions primary residential communities of Volusia, Seminole andOsceola Counties, to the urban core in Orange County and the City of Orlando. Thisproject is being sponsored by the Florida Department of Transportation, in associationwith the regions two MPOs, two transit agencies, four counties, and the City of Orlando.
In December 2004, CSXT officials presented to FDOT executives a Strategic Plan, whichvoluntarily proposed designating the A-line as primarily for passenger service, and the S-line to the west of central Florida and in the middle of the state, for freight service. CSXTintends to complement this shift with the strategic location of intermodal rail villages insouth Florida, central Florida (Lakeland/Auburndale), and north Florida (J acksonvillearea).
The CSXT proposal is to gradually shift a portion of the freight trains on the A-line over tothe S-line, as capacity improvements are made to the S-line and as passenger useincreases on the A-line from commuter rail and, in the future, intercity passenger rail. Insupport of the CSXT Strategic Plan and the Central Florida Commuter Rail TransitProject, FDOT and the project sponsors have had regular meetings with CSXT and havebeen sharing information in support of refining the Build Alternative for the proposedCFCRT Project.
During 2005, CSXT allowed FDOT consultants access to their right-of-way to collectenvironmental field data, and conduct inspections. CSXT supplied existing freightoperations data, track charts, railway signal drawings, right-of-way, utilities, bridge plans,etc. and fully participated in the development of an enhanced combined CFCRT and
freight operating plan for the corridor. At the end of 2005 the two parties begannegotiating freight traffic density and train operating patterns on the A-line. A fundamentalcomponent of these negotiations was a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) thateliminates freight traffic during the proposed CFCRT peak periods, consistent with theproposed CSXT Strategic Plan.
FDOT has completed negotiations with CSXT for the purchase of 61 miles of the CSXTA-line in central Florida for passenger rail use, consistent with the CSXT Strategic Planand the CFCRT Project. The foundation for this negotiation is a Term Sheet signedAugust 2, 2006, by Governor Bush and the President of CSXT which provides aframework to complete the transaction in which the FDOT will own, operate (commuterrail), maintain and dispatch (freight and passenger) over the 61 mile A-line CSXT right ofway. The commuter rail peak period service will be conducted during exclusivecommuter service windows.
2.2.2 Overview
The Central Florida Commuter Rail Transit (CFCRT) Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA)is a 49 mile, 16 station project which will utilize an existing Class IV freight CSXT A-linerailway. The project will utilize Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) compliant vehiclesto operate bi-directional 15 minute headway peak hour, 30 minute off-peak and 60

minute evening and weekend service. The weekday morning peak period is from 5:30am to 8:30 am and the evening peak period is from 3:30 pm to 6:30 pm. There would bea maximum of 56 trips per weekday The Vehicle Storage and Maintenance Facility willbe at the existing Rand Yard Facility.
The 49 mile project will be constructed in two phases. The 31 mile IOS will be
constructed first and will initially function as a maintenance-of-traffic measure during thereconstruction of I-4 in the Orlando metropolitan area.
FDOT will operate and maintain the CFCRT for the foreseeable future (at least the firstseven years of operation) through a third-party contract operator and will fund anyshortfalls in the operating budget during this period. Negotiations are concluded with thefour county governments and the City of Orlando to take ownership of the CFCRT afterthis period.
2.3 Legal Authority and Requirements
Florida Statutes Chapter 343, Part 1, authorizes FDOT to "plan, develop, own, purchase,
lease, or otherwise acquire, demolish, construct, remove, relocate, equip, repair,maintain, operate, and manage a commuter rail system and facilities; to establish anddetermine such policies as may be necessary for the best interest of the operation andpromotion of a commuter rail system; and to adopt such rules as may be necessary togovern the operation of a commuter rail system and commuter rail facilities."
The statutes further authorize FDOT to, among other things, own and dispose of real andpersonal property, borrow money via revenue bonds, impose and enforce fees, enter into
joint development agreements, develop feeder transit services, and cooperate andcontract with Federal, State, and local government entities.
2.4 Requirements for Interagency and Master Agreements, Approvals & Permits
FDOT, Volusia, Seminole, Orange, and Osceola County Governments, and the City ofOrlando have entered into Interlocal Agreements for this project. The purpose of theseInterlocal Agreements is to establish the ownership and management structure for theCFCRT on an interim basis and to set the foundation for a permanent ownership andmanagement structure. Because the CFCRT will initially function as a maintenance-of-traffic measure during the reconstruction of I-4 in the Orlando metropolitan area, FDOTwill operate and maintain the system for the foreseeable future (at least the first sevenyears of operation) through a third-party contract operator and will cover any shortfalls inthe operating budget during this period. At the end of this initial period of seven years ormore, the four counties and the City of Orlando to be served by the CFCRT will fundoperating deficits forecasted in the cash flow projections from general revenues.
Further, this Interlocal Agreement sets forth the commitments of the Signatory MemberAgencies in relation to financing, planning, designing, engineering, constructing,operating, maintaining and managing the CFCRT.
The Signatory Member Agencies to these Interlocal Agreements hereby agree to plan,develop, finance with assistance from the federal government, and implement acommuter rail transit system that will serve the Central Florida area, including VolusiaCounty, Seminole County, Orange County, and Osceola County and the City of Orlando.

FDOT as a railroad operator will also be subject to review by the Federal RailroadAdministration.
2.4.1 Federal Transit Administration
As a recipient of Federal Transportation Grants, FDOT is subject to the oversight
requirements of the FTA, particularly as they relate to budgeting, local share of funding orresources, contracting and procurement procedures, environmental protection, qualityassurance and quality control, labor relations, Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO),Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements, ethics, documentation and recordretention, accounting, and auditing. These requirements are articulated in the FTAMaster Agreement, which is incorporated as part of the FFGA.
2.4.2 Florida Department of Transportation
FDOT and CSX Transportation, Inc., 500 Water Street, J acksonville, FL 32202(hereinafter referred to as CSXT) Inc. have entered into a Non-Binding Consolidated
Term Sheet between the Parties dated August 2, 2006, that contemplates FDOT
acquiring from CSXT the railroad corridor known as CSXT's A-Line between MilepostA749.7 near DeLand, Florida and Milepost A814.1 near Poinciana, Florida, a distance ofapproximately 61.5 miles, (the property to be acquired is generally depicted in the mapshown in 2-1) for the use of the CFCRT. As an agency of the State of Florida, FDOT isrequired to follow the State laws, in addition to FTA guidelines, for procurement andcontracting procedures.
2.4.3 Volusia, Seminole, Orange and Osceola Counties, and the City of Orlando
In 2006, FDOT proposed to enter into a multi-year Inter-local Agreements with Volusia,Seminole, Orange, and Osceola Counties and the City of Orlando for operating fundsand other assistance. This Inter-local agreements were executed in July/August 2007
with the five local jurisdictions.
2.5 Operating and Capital Financing
The CFCRT financial plan assumes a phased completion schedule, with the IOS (NorthSegment) entering revenue service by 2012 and the south segment of the LPA enteringrevenue service in 2014. The year-of-expenditure (YOE) capital construction costs are$602.1 million for the LPA in 2030 and $357.2 million for the IOS on Opening Day, 2012.
There are three primary revenue sources assumed in the financial plan to construct theLPA for the CFCRT FTA Section 5309 Federal Funds, State funds, and Local Fundsources.
2.5.1 Federal Funding
Federal discretionary grants under the Section 5309 New Starts Program are assumed toprovide 50% of the funding required for the LPA. Based on the outlays required for theCFCRT alternatives, approximately $301 million (YOE) in Section 5309 New Startsassistance will be required for the LPA. The Florida SIB would advance any fundsneeded to match the construction draws with Section 5309 New Starts appropriations.

FINANCIAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER 412994-2-22-01 CENTRAL FLORIDA COMMUTER RAIL TRANSITPROJ ECT MANAGEMENT PLAN
9 SEPTEMBER 2008
2.5.2 State Funds
State funding of 25% or approximately ($150.5 million YOE for the LPA and $89.3 millionfor the IOS) is available from a variety of sources, including: Public Transportation Office(PTO), Intermodal, Surface Transportation Program (STP), Strategic Intermodal System(SIS), and Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) transfers to public transit. In
addition, a Growth Management Initiative has been established that will bring funds fromFloridas General Revenues into the FDOT capital program, and an annual allocation of$75 million has been made to Floridas state new starts program (FDOT Project FM No.4192651).
2.5.3 Local Funds
In order to facilitate the local 25% financial participation ($150.5 million YOE for the LPAand $89.3 million for the IOS of the four counties served by the CFCRT Volusia,Seminole, Orange, and Osceola and the City of Orlando) for the capital costs, the FloridaSIB is available to advance the funds for the non-federal, non-state share of capital costs.Repayment of these advances would commence upon the start of revenue operations.
Interest would be assessed at an annual rate of 1.50%. The SIB loan would be repaidover a 10-year period from the general revenues of the Counties and the City of Orlandowho pursue this financing option.
At this time, the local governments have agreed with FDOT regarding an appropriatemethodology to allocate capital, as well as future operating costs. The financial analysisassumes that capital costs will be allocated to the governments based on each countysand citys share of the total station construction costs and of the length of the CFCRTwithin each countys borders. Volusia, Seminole, Orange, and Osceola Counties and theCity of Orlando signed agreements to financially commit to the project.
2.5.4 Operating Expenses
The operating revenue and expense projections for the LPA are derived from theestimates provided from the patronage forecasting and operations and maintenance coststudies performed as part of the Alternatives Analysis. These studies follow themethodologies proscribed by the FTA to derive the 2030 factors applied in the financialplan. In order to make the intervening year calculations, a set of interpolation factors wasdeveloped for each of the line items considered.
The operating and maintenance costs associated with the feeder bus service for thecommuter rail system is assumed to be absorbed by LYNX and VOTRAN and will notrepresent incremental costs to the transit agencies.
Factors pertaining to specific CFCRT operating and revenue line items include:
2.5.5 Fare Revenue
For this stage of analysis, a $1.25 plus a $1.00 per county fare per boarding (2006dollars) is applied to forecasted LPA ridership projections to derive farebox revenue. Thisassumption generates annual farebox recovery ratios of approximately 32 percent overthe forecast period. The operating budget reflects assumptions for 2030 of an average

weekday ridership of 7,265 and an annual ridership of 2,106,850 for the LPA. For the IOSweekday ridership is 4,300 and an annual ridership of 1,247,000.
2.5.6 Ancillary Revenue
The financial plan assumes an estimated $1,040,000 (2008 dollars) in annual ancillary
revenue throughout the analysis period. This estimate is derived from a separateanalysis undertaken of strategies to maximize ancillary revenue in the CFCRT Corridor.
2.5.7 Section 5307 Preventive Maintenance
In accordance with FTA guidelines, CFCRT will establish a preventive maintenanceprogram. The financial projections assume that preventive maintenance allocationsincrease over time, generally in proportion to inflation and the rate of growth in the federalformula apportionments. Section 5307 formula apportionments are calculated using themethodology described in the Financial Plan. Soft match available through FDOT will beused to provide the non-federal share of the preventive maintenance program.
2.5.8 State and Local Operating Assistance
FDOT will operate and maintain the CFCRT for the foreseeable future (at least the firstseven years of operation) through a third-party contract operator and will fund theoperating expense during this period not covered by farebox and ancillary revenue, FTASection 5307 Urbanized Area Formula Funds for Preventive Maintenance, interestearnings and other revenue. Thereafter, Volusia, Seminole, Orange, and OsceolaCounties and the City of Orlando will make up the shortfall according to a formula.Because the counties will contribute only those funds required to close the operatingdeficit, no cash balances will accumulate. Arrangements will be made with the countiesto ensure sufficient working capital is advanced.
2.5.9 Operating Expenses
The total operating and maintenance cost assumptions for commuter rail services is$30.3 million for the LPA and $23.2 million for the IOS (2007).
2.5.10 Before and After Study
In accordance with FTA requirements, a Before and After Study will be performed bythe FDOT. FDOT will retain the necessary information required for this study at thefollowing project milestones: conclusion of Alternatives Analysis; Preliminary Engineering;Final Design; signing of the Full Funding Grant Agreement; start of Revenue Service; andtwo years after project opening.
The CFCRT Project Manager, with assistance from the PMC, will be responsible forcollecting the required information during Project Development and Construction, and theCFCRT CEO will be responsible for collecting the required information during initial andfirst two years operations. The FDOT Director of Transportation Support will beresponsible for receiving and maintaining the information at the noted milestones, and forgenerating the Study at the required time.

2.6 Purpose and Scope of the Project Management Plan (PMP)
FTA considers the PMP to be the primary resource document to assist FDOT indeveloping management structures and work programs to effectively plan and implementthe Project being developed through the FFGA. The FTA requires that FDOT develop aPMP, which will be reviewed by the Project Management Oversight Consultant (PMOC).
The FDOT Director of Transportation Development has primary responsibility formaintaining and controlling the PMP. The work of updating and maintenance will beassigned to the Director of Transportation Development, who in turn will draw from otherFDOT departments and the Project Management and Design Consultants for assistance.
The PMP is developed in accordance with the requirements of Federal Transit Laws:Title 49 CFR, Chapter 53-Mass Transportation, Section 5327-Project ManagementOversight. This reference requires that recipients of funding for major capital Projectsmust establish and maintain an approved PMP. Regulations for the implementation ofSection 5327 and the PMP are contained in Title 49, Part 633 (49CFR633).
The PMP has been developed to include the six phases of the Project as follows: (1)Planning, (2) Preliminary Engineering, (3) Final Design, (4) Construction, (5) Testing andStart-up, and (6) Revenue Service. The PMP will be reviewed and revised when majorchanges in policies and procedures including the FFGA will affect the successfulcompletion of the Project. The responsibility, authority, and procedures for maintainingand updating the PMP are detailed in Section 12.0, PMP Control and Revisions.
