SR 60 LRT ALTERNATIVEPECK ROAD

SUMMARYAdjacent to the San Gabriel River and close to the Whittier Narrows Park, the landscape

character of the station borrows from the informal and lush materials of the river’s edge

and basin. This creates a strong visual relationship from the station to the recreational

network along the San Gabriel River. It is supported by secure walkways for pedestrians

and bicyclists alike. The station is also situated across Peck Road to creating a unique

“gateway” between the cities of South El Monte and Whittier.

WHAT WE HEARD:

South El Monte City Comments, Individual City MeetingsHighlights

• The city liked the station ideas that were presented in the conceptual model exercise

• The station location to be moved to straddle Peck Road

• Concerns were raised in regards to the on and off ramp access with Durfee Avenue

Stakeholder Preference Survey and Station Map Group DiscussionsHighlights and Summary

• Great opportunity for shuttle/bus connectivity to Rio Hondo College

• Integrate connectivity to Southwest Nature Center and South El Monte High School

• Concerns were raised in regards to the on and off ramp access with Durfee Avenue

• Opportunity to integrate Emerald Necklace with station planning

• Provide for development near the station location; starbuck/restaurants

Station Section

PECK ROAD

STATION CONCEPTSCreate Community Identity• The Peck Road station is situated across Peck Road with access from both sides using

the station itself as a “gateway” between the cities of South El Monte and Whittier.

• The landscape character for the station design is unique to its relationship with the San

Gabriel River and Whittier Narrows. The station proposes to integrate and enhance

landscape features found in the river and park.

Integrate Station to Integrate Existing Land Uses and Future Opportunities• The station integrates itself into a unique location and takes advantage of the right of

way along the SR 60.

• It maximizes its staging areas for park-n-ride facilities by balancing the parking load

between the two sites.

• Neighborhood services are proposed to benefi t the station’s users.

• The station could provide for future modifi cation to the park-n-ride facility for direct

access to the SR 60.

Create Accessible “Multi-Modal” Stations• (1) Primary pedestrian fl ow comes from the station, park-n-ride facilities, bus stops and

drop off . Full access is provided on both sides of the station.

• (2) The bicyclist has enhanced access to the San Gabriel River recreational system and

to the local road network. Bicycle rack and storage are provided on both ends of the

platform adjacent to the station entry.

• (3) Bus stops are provided on both sides of the station directly adjacent to the station

entry. Drop-off zones for shuttle busses are provided for service to Rio Hondo College.

• (4) Private Vehicle Drop-off areas are provided on both sides of the station with kiss-n-

ride zones within line of sight of station entry as well.

Create a Safe and Secure Environment• The station design incorporates enhanced pedestrian crossings and intersections at

Peck Road and Durfee Avenue.

• A future modifi cation to the pedestrian bridge may connect directly from the park-n-

ride facility to the station’s mezzanine level above the freeway’s on and off ramps.

• Decorative fencing may be provided at grade level to prevent access across the

freeway on and off ramps encouraging use at the pedestrian crossing.

• The station and plaza to be well lit and programmed to encourage public safety at

night.

Integrate Sustainable Measures• Permeable paving is designed in the surface lots to maximize its relationship to the

natural character of the river.

• The station design to incorporate best practices of sustainable design.

Amenitize the Station• Reinforce the connectivity with Whittier Narrows and the San Gabriel River by

providing a unique link between mass transit and a recreational network.

• A high volume park-n-ride facility is provided with potential development

opportunities for commuter oriented services. FINAL URBAN DESIGN CONCEPT REPORT

• Land Use: liked mixed-use development with commercial and residential patterns

• Station Integration: dislike for the at-grade, open space station design

• Streetscape & Safety: liked streetscapes with ample pedestrian access

• Connectivity: liked tree-lined pathways and access for pedestrians and

bicycles

• Parking: disliked at-grade parking

• Create a potential for mixed use development and park-n-ride structure on southeast

corner of Garfi eld Avenue and Via Campo

• Provide pedestrian bridges for secure access to station

• Maintain the existing commercial strip along Garfi eld Avenue

• Create better access north of the SR 60 by improving the underpass, better lighting,

wider sidewalks, etc.

• Provide good pedestrian links to bus connectivity

WASHINGTON BLVD. LRT ALTERNATIVEWHITTIER BOULEVARD

SUMMARYCreates a southern terminus to the “greenway” of Garfi eld Avenue and presents the

opportunity for a signature gateway to the Whittier Boulevard Commercial Corridor. As

part of the “greenway” concept, the station and guideway columns should accommodate

for planting materials to break down the scale of the structure and create a softer feel

along Garfi eld Avenue. Highly connected with existing bus lines and surrounding

neighborhoods, the station itself is uniquely integrated into its neighborhood context.

WHAT WE HEARD:

Montebello City Comments, Individual City MeetingsHighlights• Provide adequate plaza space for the station

• Enhance intersection of Whittier Boulevard and Garfi eld Avenue

• Create an entry point into the City of Montebello

Stakeholder Preference Survey and Station Map Group DiscussionsHighlights and Summary• Land Use: liked mixed-use development with commercial and residential

patterns

• Station Integration: dislike for the at-grade, open space station design

• Streetscape & Safety: liked streetscapes with ample pedestrian access

• Connectivity: liked tree-lined pathways and access for pedestrians and bicycles

• Parking: disliked at-grade parking

• Good location for bus connectivity and relationship to neighborhood and commercial

strip

• Improve the area with better lighting, wider sidewalks, pedestrian bridge, bus

connectivity, etc.

• Provide a secure path for students to use to the north

• Provide safe and well lit pathways to discourage loitering

• Provide more trees at station location, integrate nature and keep safety in mind

• Incorporate elements of community pride

• Create a tribute to Jaime Escalante
