CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
3 - Grant Funding Existing Project
This project will provide funds to create and operate an “on-demand” transit services with an all-electric vehicle fleet to primarily disadvantaged and low-income communities west of Newport Boulevard. The service area in Costa Mesa will include key destinations including healthcare, transportation hubs, grocery, senior living facilities, and other destinations. The proposed initial operating plan would have a total of three electric vehicles operating up to 10 hours per day, 7 days a week, with adjustments made based on feedback from the community and service data to best align with the needs of the community.

The CMO Pilot Program is a statewide initiative that provides voucher-based funding for zero-emission carsharing, innovative transit services, and on-demand ride services in California’s historically underserved communities. The City received $1.5 million in funding to create and implement an on-demand shuttle pilot program for areas designated as Disadvantaged or Low-Income to provide transit connections to OCTA bus routes, grocery stores, shopping, and job centers in Costa Mesa.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
3 - Grant Funding New Project
The project will develop and implement a Pedestrian Safety Festival that will include a temporary weekend closure of the 750’ stretch of Harbor Boulevard between Newport Boulevard and West 19th Street to automobiles. The festival which will occur on 4 weekends over the course of one year will open the space to pedestrians, bicyclists, and other non-automobile users in a plaza-like space that showcases the potential of the primary corridor in Costa Mesa’s central business district to be thought of as a space for all people including those outside of cars. The festival will include various activities and a primary focus on the importance of pedestrian safety.

The project encourages non-automobile mobility in the community and improves safety for pedestrians and bicyclists. This project will be funded by a United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) Safe Roads and Streets for All (SS4A) Grant.
