SAN MARCOS TRANSIT PLAN I FINALREPORT <br />City of San Marcos <br />Ili <br />To support future transit operations, the City of San Marcos is considering developing a dedicated <br />transit facilitywith administrative, maintenance, operations, and storage areas. Because Texas <br />State University alsooperates a significant number oftransitbusesin San Marcos, there is an <br />option for Bobcat Shuttle to share a future transit facilitywith the City of San Marcos, or to <br />contract maintenance, storage, and/or operations withthat facility. Below are planning -level <br />facility size estimates for two versions of a future San Marcos Transit facility: <br />■ Option l: Joint city -university facilitythatservesthe needs of both San Marcos Transit <br />and Bobcat Shuttle. <br />■ Option 2: City of San Marcos -only facilitythat is smallerthanajointfacilityandserves <br />only San Marcos Transit. <br />Although these estimates are planning -level only and would need to be examined in more detail <br />priorto site selection, they showthat Option 1 wouldlikelyinvolve a site twice the size of that <br />required for Option 2. These estimates were developed using prior experience on other projects, <br />as well as recent guidance from the FTAon facility sizing. <br />Further study is re quired to develop cost estimates for an operations and maintenance facility. <br />Orchard <br />Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates, Inc. 13-17 <br />
