Isevisi eyengeziwe yokwengeza izinketho zokuhamba zosuku lweviki nangempelasonto zabagibeli
Oceanside, CA - IBhodi labaPhathi beNorth County Transit District (NCTD) livume ukwanda kwemvamisa yensizakalo yesitimela i-COASTER eqala ngo-Okthoba 2021. Ukuvunyelwa, okwalandela ukufaka okuvela emphakathini phakathi nochungechunge lwemihlangano yomphakathi nezindlu ezivulekile, kuzokwengeza usuku lwesonto olusha nohambo lwangempelasonto lohlelo lwe-COASTER.
"Ukwandisa insizakalo ye-COASTER kunika abahambi abangena emhubheni we-I-5 izindlela eziningi zokuhamba ukufinyelela ezindaweni eziphakathi kwe-Oceanside nedolobha iSan Diego," kusho uTony Kranz, uSihlalo weBhodi leNCTD kanye nePhini leMeya yase-Encinitas. "Ukuhamba okuningi kusho amathuba amaningi okuthatha i-COASTER uye emsebenzini noma esikoleni, ukufinyelela ukunakekelwa kwezempilo, ukuthenga, ukuhlangana nabangane nomndeni, ukujabulela amabhishi ethu amahle, nokunye okuningi."
Inani elandisiwe lohambo lwe-COASTER laphakathi nesonto nangempelasonto luyingxenye yoshintsho lwensizakalo oluqala ukusebenza ngo-Okthoba. Ushintsho lwenkonzo ye-COASTER lubandakanya:
- Ukwandisa inani lohambo lansuku zonke, lwaphakathi nesonto ukusuka ku-22 kuye ku-30
- Ukwandisa inani lohambo lwansuku zonke, lwasehlobo olusuka ku-26 luye ku-32
- Ukwandisa inani lohambo lwansuku zonke, lwasebusika lwangoLwesihlanu kusuka ku-22 kuye ku-32
- Ukwandisa inani lohambo lwansuku zonke, lwasehlobo lwangoMgqibelo olusuka ku-12 luye ku-20
- Ukwandisa inani lohambo lwansuku zonke, lwasebusika ngoMgqibelo kusuka ku-8 kuye ku-20
- Ukwandisa inani lohambo lwansuku zonke, lwangeSonto kusuka ku-8 kuye ku-20
- Ukuguqula izikhathi zohambo ukuvala izikhala ezikhona ekusebenzeni
- Ukuguqula insizakalo yokuxhuma yaseSorrento Valley phakathi nezinsuku eziphakeme zaphakathi nesonto nokungeza uhambo lwebhasi lwe-BREEZE eSiteshini sasePoinsettia njengohlelo lokushayela ukuxhumana ne-COASTER ngezikhathi eziphakeme kakhulu.
Ukunyuka kwezikhathi zaphakathi nesonto kuzovumela abagibeli ukuba bakhululeke futhi kunikeze izinketho eziningi kulabo abanamashejuli omsebenzi ahlukahlukene. Ukuhamba kabili kwantambama kusihlwa ngoMsombuluko kuze kube uLwesine kuphendula izicelo zamakhasimende zensizakalo yakamuva, futhi uhambo lwangempelasonto olwengeziwe lusekela imicimbi ekhethekile nemisebenzi ethandwayo yokuzilibazisa. Uhlelo olusha lwe-COASTER olususelwa kokufakwayo komphakathi maqondana nezikhathi ezintsha zohambo luzoshicilelwa ngoSepthemba.
Insizakalo ye-COASTER enwetshiwe ixhaswa ngokuphelele ngemali AbakwaTransNet, intela yokuthengisa engaba yingxenye yesenti ebanzi yamaphrojekthi wezokuthutha aphethwe yiSan Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG).
"Lokhu kwanda kokusebenzela abalingani bethu bezokuthutha kuyisibonelo esihle salokho esingakwenza namuhla ukwenza ezokuthutha zibe yindlela elula," kusho uSihlalo weSANDAG kanye neMeya ye-Encinitas uCatherine Blakespear. "Inhloso yohlaka lwe-SANDAG lohlelo lwesiFunda lwango-2021, okuyipulani lekusasa lezokuthutha, ukudala uhlelo lokuhamba olusheshayo, oluhle, futhi oluhlanzekile kuwo wonke umuntu esifundeni manje nasesikhathini esizayo."
Ku-2004, abavoti baseSan Diego County bavume ukwandiswa kwenkonzo ye-COASTER njengengxenye yokudlula kwe- AbakwaTransNet isilinganiso sokuvota esandisiwe, esasifaka ulimi oluthile olwalufuna ukwenzelwa okwengeziwe kumzila wesitimela osogwini.
Kusukela lapho, i-SANDAG isetshenzisiwe AbakwaTransNet ukuvikela amadola kahulumeni nohulumeni ngamaphrojekthi angaba ngu-18 aqediwe athuthukise umthamo wesitimela sabagibeli emhubheni ngokusebenzisa ukulandelela kabili nokunye ukuthuthuka. I-NCTD nayo isanda kuthola izitimela ezintsha ezinhlanu futhi isezinhlelweni zokuvuselela zonke izimoto zabagibeli ezinezinto zokuhlala ezintsha, ukhaphethi, amalambu e-LED, isikimu sombala wangaphandle, nezinsiza zokushaja kwezinye izihlalo.
Izitimela ezengeziwe ezine ezintsha kanye nezimoto zabagibeli besitimela eziyishumi nanye kulindeleke ngoJuni 2023, ezovumela ukwengezwa kwensizakalo eyandisiwe ye-COASTER njengoba kuchaziwe ohlakeni lweSANDAG lohlelo lwesiFunda lwango-2021. Ngaphambi kwalokhu kuthuthukiswa, amaza wensiza ye-COASTER anqunyelwe ngenxa yokuntuleka kwamandla kujantshi wesitimela, obexhasa ngokuyinhloko imisebenzi yezimpahla ngaphambi kokuthengwa yi-NCTD kanye neSan Diego Metropolitan Transit System e1992.
Uhlelo lwamanje lwe-COASTER lungatholakala ku- I-GoNCTD.com.
