Scope of Work The scope of work for this first phase (Phase 1) is to complete a Study and Analysis. The Study will review the initial conceptual studies and build upon that foundation. The Study will also identify the characteristics for service, ridership, revenue and costs. The Analysis will seek to understand the economic and social value of a terminal and ferry service to the community. The Study will seek to do the following: • Explore potential near-term and long —term ferry routes • Estimate capital costs and funding sources • Estimate operating costs and funding sources, including farebox revenues • Evaluate implications of WETA route expansions to funding availability for Redwood City Ferry Service • Conduct market analysis to quantify: o Potential ridership o Travel times relative to alternative modes o Potential Fare levels o Estimated fare box revenues - Explore potential last -mile connection services Identify potential private partnership opportunities The Analysis will seek to do the following: • Evaluate the costs and benefits of ferry service relative to single occupant vehicular driving between destination and origin points • Identify and quantify local and regional benefits • Quantify benefits of the terminal as both a transit hub and resource for emergency services • Quantify years to return on investment • Assess ferry service and terminal's potential to induce development During the course of Phase 1, the City will develop a comprehensive public outreach approach to solicit information from residents, businesses and commuters to help inform analysis on ridership, route characteristics, and viability of a new ferry service.
