SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) A study plan for a monorail, system running from Belmont under San Francisco Bay to Oakland and Richmond was presented Saturday to the engineers of the San Francis co Bay Area Rapid Transit Dis trict. , , ... - ...'.,-. : The monorail system proposed by the Alweg System, would cov er the entire route: from' Belmont to either-. Hayward: or-Richmond in 55 minutes at speeds, up to 65 or; 75 miles per hour. Alweg has built monorail systems in Co logne, Germany, and Disneyland. "Alweg ' monorail ! transit has been developed in full detail and is capable of providing the Bay Area with a mass rapid transit system that is economical in' con struction and operation," said Six- ten Holmquist, personal represent ative in the United States of Axel Wenner-Gren, Swedish industrial ist and financier, Holmquist .made the presentation on behalf of a Wenner-Gren a f f i 1 i a t e. RaDid iransit systems o California, Holmquist said a total of $328,- 700,000 would pay for the sub aqueous tube across the bay, sub way construction between San Francisco and Oakland, stations repair shops and yards, signalling systems and other equipment. iwenty five million dollars of the sum would be spent on mono rail cars, he said. He said the system would run on a 24-hour a day basis. 'It is impossible for us at this lime to recommend what zones should be established and what fare should be charged," Holm quist said, "but it is obvious from the figures developed to date that standard fare of only 25 cents would make this a paying proposition." He said that with a 25-cent fare the system would net $1,400,000 annually. The route will collect more than $23,600,000 in fare and concession revenue, costs, includ ing bond redemption and operat ing expenses, will be an esti mated $22,250,000, he said. Holmquist proposed the con struction costs would be paid by 40-ycar bond issue, car costs with a 30-year bond issue. He estimated the monorail sys tem would carry the following loads: Belmont to San Francisco and Oakland, 48,100 passengers daily; Richmond to Oakland and San Francisco, 49,800; Hayward to Oakland," 196,000; Oakland to Richmond, 40,000; Oakland to San Francisco, 44,700.
