The ACE Rail system, managed by SJRRC, and San Joaquins system, managed by SJJPA, will be designed and implemented to ensure that all passengers with disabilities can access the train cars. There are regulations that must be followed for new or altered stations, FRA/FTA requires that the boarding platform height would be the same as the car door height, OR the rail agency may request approval for an alternate method that serves as an“Equivalent Facilitation.” SJRRC and SJJPA are proposing to meet the performance standard through alternative boarding methods and equivalent facilitation.
