The Alameda Corridor Transportation Authority (ACTA), a joint-powers authority formed by the Cities and Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. ACTA’s principal responsibilities include: dispatching trains, security and maintenance of the infrastructure, and the collection of fees from the railroads for the use of the Alameda Corridor to pay operating costs and debt service on the outstanding revenue bonds. ACTA operates on the Joint Ports property under the Use Permit granted by the Port of Los Angeles and Port of Long Beach. Any proposed work on, under, across or adjacent to the Joint Ports Property requires a Permit from both Ports. See Alameda Corridor Transportation Authority interactive map below.

ACTA Third Party Projects Process

Concurrently with the permit application, the 3rd party will need a reimbursement agreement with ACTA to allow ACTA’s maintenance contractor to provide flagging protection for the 3rd party or its contractors when working in or around ACTA’s main tracks and/or Joint Ports ROW. If the 3rd party work impacts ACTA’s infrastructure, by adding loads or impeding the operation of train movements, design reviews will be required by ACTA’s engineering consultants to make sure the proposed project meets design, safety and operation standards. The reimbursement agreement will include cost estimates for project submittal reviews and estimated flagging days required.  To begin the process, a project scope of work and schedule should be emailed to thirdpartyprojects@acta.org.
