Two Opportunities for Public Comments

Calling all Solano County Residents!!  We need your input on two upcoming transportation plans:

The first is the Solano Connected Mobility Implementation Plan and is open to all Solano County Residents. This Plan is being developed to identify and improve mobility options (e.g. bus, ferry, train, bike) between your home and destinations. For more information on the Connected Mobility Implementation Plan and to take the survey, please click HERE.

If you’re a Suisun City resident, the Suisun City Community Based Transportation Plan (CBTP). The goal of the CBTP is to identify transportation gaps, propose and prioritize strategies to address these gaps, and target potential funding sources and project leads for implementation. For more information on the CBTP and to take the survey,  please click HERE.

Stay tuned for additional information.

SMART and SolanoExpress Station Feasibility Study 2021

The 2018 California State Rail Plan, the state’s strategic plan for creating a coordinated, statewide rail network, identified a “Solano County Hub” to link Capitol Corridor, future Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit (SMART) trains, and regional buses. This report analyzed potential rail station locations along the Union Pacific Railroad/SMART corridor within Solano County to determine a recommended location for the proposed Solano County Hub. The study recommends the current location of the Suisun-Fairfield Capitol Corridor Station as the SMART-Capitol Corridor station site. In addition, the report provides a range of station options for another station site in the Cordelia area in the City of Fairfield that could be considered in the update of the City’s General Plan.
