City Council Meeting Agenda Report Item # _____
Meeting Date: April 24, 2023
Subject: Accept and Appropriate Grant Funding from CalRecycle Recommended Action
Accept and appropriate a $25,890 grant for FY 2022/23 from the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) for implementation of recycling and diversion activities.
Background/Discussion
CalRecycle is the California State agency that promotes recycling, waste reduction, and product reuse. Through the Beverage Container Recycling City/County Payment Program, grant funding is provided to jurisdictions to promote beverage container recycling and litter cleanup activities with a goal to reach and maintain an 80 percent recycling rate for all California refund value beverage containers—aluminum, glass, plastic, and bi-metal.
The City of Daly City will use these funds to increase recycling opportunities in public and other residentials areas, host litter clean-up events, conduct marketing and create advertisements to promote recycling, and provide educational opportunities for elementary and middle schools in the community. The City of Daly City has approximately two years to expend the funding award.
Fiscal Impact
The grant revenue from CalRecycle has been awarded in one full installment of $25,890. The grant revenue from CalRecycle will be fully expended at the end of Fiscal Year 2024/25.
Summary/Conclusion
Staff is available to provide any additional information desired by the Mayor or Councilmembers.

City Council Meeting Agenda Report Item # _____
Meeting Date: April 24, 2023
Subject: Requesting Use of Federal Asset Forfeiture Funds to Purchase Licenses for a Virtual-Based Training Platform for Sworn Police Department Personnel Recommended Action
Staff recommends Council approve the use of Federal Asset Forfeiture Funds to purchase 88 licenses for four different virtual-based police training courses, which will provide additional training in Deescalation, Use of Force, and Strategic Communications.
Background
Over the past two years, the Daly City Police Department has hired over 30 new officers, which accounts for approximately half of all officers assigned to the Patrol Division. In addition to our patrol officers' young tenure, there have been and continue to be significant changes to law enforcement practices, to include response to in-progress crimes, required use of de-escalation techniques, and the importance of strategic communication.
Discussion
Performa Labs has developed a virtual-based training platform offering courses in De-Escalation, Advanced De-escalation, Use of Force, and Strategic Communications. These courses are interactive and require officers to engage in the scenarios for better content retention. Additionally, these courses are based on real life scenarios developed via body camera footage from Police Departments around the state. This delivery method provides our sworn staff the ability to experience high liability scenarios and learn best practices for responding to these types of situations. All four of these courses are certified by the California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training. This solution provides an additional training opportunity for staff to complete at their own pace as time permits, freeing up valuable training schedules for mandated training requirements, and other high liability training focused on current events or legislative mandates.
Fiscal Impact
Funding is available using Federal Asset Forfeiture Funds. The one-time purchase for 88 licenses for the four courses is not to exceed $48,000 in asset forfeiture funds.
Summary/Conclusion
Staff is available to provide any additional information requested by the Mayor or Councilmembers.
Respectfully submitted,
Cameron Christensen
Acting Chief of Police
City Council Agenda Report Item # _____
Meeting Date: April 24, 2023
Subject: Support the 2023 Daly City Community Based Transportation Plan Recommended Action
It is recommended that the City Council support the 2023 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan (CBTP), developed by the City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County (C/CAG) with Association of Bay Area Governments/Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) grant funding.
Background
MTC initiated the Community-Based Transportation Planning program in 2002 to identify transportation needs in low-income communities throughout the Bay Area. The program’s goal is to improve access and mobility for low-income communities and engage residents and community organizations in identifying local mobility challenges and community-oriented solutions.
The previous CBTP in Daly City was prepared in 2008 and was limited to the Bayshore neighborhood. The 2008 Bayshore CBTP recommended 14 transportation-related projects, programs or plans. By 2019, nine of the 14 recommendations had been implemented or partially implemented.
The completed and partially completed recommendations included improved bicycle facilities installed along Geneva Avenue in 2017, subsidized monthly transit pass program for low-income riders, the Bayshore Shuttle, improvements to transit stops, multi-language transportation marketing, a medical services shuttle, and other miscellaneous improvements.
Discussion
In 2019, C/CAG, as the County’s Congestion Management Agency, obtained funding through an MTC-Community-Based Transportation Planning Grant to prepare an update to the 2008 Bayshore CBTP. The current CBTP was expanded to include three additional Equity Priority Communities (EPC) and renamed as the 2023 Daly City CBTP. The following study areas were included:
• EPC just south of John Daly Boulevard between Lake Merced Boulevard and I-280; • EPC in the Bayshore neighborhood;
• EPC located just east of I-280 and west of Hillside Boulevard and south of School Street; and • EPC north of Highway 1 and east of St. Francis Boulevard.
C/CAG, in partnership with the City of Daly City, San Mateo County, SamTrans, Commute.org, Peninsula Family Services, and Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition., conducted an extensive community outreach plan which included a bilingual community input process composed of a virtual presentation to City Council in February 2021, virtual Transportation Town Hall-style workshop in May 2021, pop-up event at the Bayshore Block Party in October 2021, distribution of electronic and traditional survey and hosting of community feedback events at the Colma BART Station from
Support the 2023 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan Meeting Date: April 24, 2023
October 2020 to February 2022, and pop-up event at the Daly City Farmers’ Market at Serramonte Shopping Center in December 2021.
Based on community input and technical expertise, the project team recommended 14 bicycle, pedestrian and micro mobility projects; 10 transit and paratransit projects; and four safety projects to close mobility gaps for residents of the four EPCs in the 2023 Daly City CBTP study area. The projects identified in the CBTP are eligible for funding through the Lifeline Transportation Program (LTP), which allocates state and federal funds for projects that meet mobility and accessibility needs in low-income communities.
In June 2022, City staff provided revisions to the draft CBTP recommendations. In November 2022, staff provided revisions to the Administrative Draft CBTP. Staff supports the recommendations of the 2023 Daly City CBTP as well as pursuing opportunities to implement project recommendations and tracking the progress of the recommendations for which the City of Daly City is identified as a Responsible Agency.
Fiscal Impact
The 2023 Daly City CBTP was funded through MTC’s Community-Based Transportation Planning Grant Program. No additional funding is needed for the adoption of the Daly City CBTP, but additional funding will be needed to implement some of the projects identified in the plan.
Summary/Conclusion
It is recommended that the City Council support the 2023 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan (CBTP), developed by C/CAG.
Staff is available to provide any additional information desired by the Mayor or Councilmembers Respectfully submitted,

The CBTP was developed by the City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County (C/CAG) with Association of Bay Area Governments/ Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) grant funding. In conformance with MTC guidelines, it represents a collaborative effort between C/CAG, community members, local stakeholders, and transit operators to identify and fill local mobility gaps in EPCs.
The CBTP recommends a series of projects and programs identified during community outreach and review of existing studies. These recommendations were prioritized using evaluation criteria developed with a CBTP Advisory Group (AG).
COVID-19 and CBTP Development
The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting shelter-in-place mandate of February/March 2020 occurred following the completion of the initial approved Community Outreach Strategy. As such, the outreach strategy was revisited. Following a meeting of the Advisory Group on August 24, 2020, the CBTP team and MTC approved a new strategy for distanced community outreach and agreed that input related to emerging COVID-19 mobility challenges was relevant to the CBTP and resulting recommendations.
COVID-19 cases peaked from November 2020 to February 2021, again in August 2021, and a third time in January 2022. Each peak required holding or adapting outreach and working with new partners, a process described fully in Chapter 4. As a result, some of the community feedback that influences recommendations in this CBTP are directly tied into the mobility context, habits, priorities, and challenges influenced by COVID-19.
Both C/CAG and MTC determined that it is in the interest of EPCs to adopt this plan in the current context, rather than re-initiate the existing conditions, community outreach, and recommendations processes.
Study Area Profile
Demographic Profile
The last CBTP in Daly City was the 2008 Bayshore CBTP. That study area consisted of a single census tract in the far eastern part of Daly City, north of the City of Brisbane. It had a population of 3,890 people, under four percent of Daly City’s total population at the time. It was a diverse community, at 57 percent Asian/Pacific Islander, 24 percent Hispanic/Latino, 10 percent black and seven percent white.
The current CBTP study area represents a significant expansion from 2008, as shown in Figure ES-1. In addition to the Bayshore tract, it includes three separate EPCs in the northwest, central and southern portions of the city. The total 2017 population of the four EPCs was about 25,500. That population is expected to increase to 31,855 persons by 2040.
The study area remains more diverse than San Mateo County as a whole. About 10 percent of study area residents are white, compared to 40 percent countywide.
Approximately five percent are black, compared to two percent countywide. Thirty percent of the study area population is Hispanic or Latino, and 53 percent is Asian or Pacific Islander.
Approximately 33 percent of all residents in the four EPCs were living in poverty in 2017, as compared to 19 percent Countywide.
Transportation and Transit Profile
The Colma BART Station is located in the southernmost Daly City EPC and Daly City BART Station is located just outside the northern EPC. Together, the stations are served by the Richmond-Millbrae, Antioch-Millbrae, Daly City-Dublin/Pleasanton and Daly City-Warm Springs/South Fremont BART lines. The Bayshore Caltrain station is located at the far northeastern portion of the study area, east of the Bayshore EPC.
The study area is served by several bus routes managed by the San Mateo County Transit District (SamTrans). Two San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency

(MUNI) routes also serve Geneva Avenue in the northeast (Bayshore) EPC and the area immediately surrounding the Daly City BART Station. Additionally, the City of Daly City’s Bayshore Shuttle is routed from the Bayshore neighborhood to the Daly City BART Station.
An active transportation network includes a mix of bicycle and pedestrian facility types that provides some connectivity with transit. Multiple future bicycle and pedestrian projects, including various classes of bike lanes, pedestrian paths and non-automobile safety improvements are proposed in current plans like Walk Bike Daly City: City of Daly City Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan 2020; and the 2021 Unincorporated San Mateo County Active Transportation Plan.
Outreach and Engagement
All CBTP recommendations are based on a community coordination campaign consistent with MTC Guidelines. As detailed in Chapter 4, the outreach process was adapted to changing conditions associated with COVID-19.
Outreach and engagement in this plan included the following components:
1. Oversight by an Advisory Group
2. Project web page
3. Project awareness campaign
4. Bilingual digital transportation survey
5. Meetings with city leadership
6. Virtual “Town Hall” meeting
7. “Pop-up” outreach sessions at events in the study area
Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan 5
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County Advisory group
Initially, C/CAG convened separate AGs for the Daly City CBTP and Southeast San Mateo County CBTP. However, the AGs were combined at the start of the pandemic.
This allowed members to discuss the shared mobility challenges of COVID-19 alongside new outreach strategies. The AG also continued to perform its role of reviewing project milestones, providing direction on reaching specific communities, and prioritizing CBTP recommendations.
The AG was composed of Daly City, San Mateo County, and transit agency staff as well as representatives from transportation-related non-profit organizations. All members are listed in Chapter 4.
Project Web Page
The CBTP team developed a project web page on the C/CAG website. The web page included background information on the CBTP process, project submittals such as the Community Needs Assessment and AG meeting presentations. Links to Spanish and English versions of the online transportation survey were also uploaded to the webpage.
Awareness Campaign
The CBTP team developed a graphics-rich Outreach Awareness Notice in English (see Figure 4-1) and Spanish (see Figure 4-2) to notice the public of outreach events in various EPCs. The flier was adapted to each event and posted digitally on websites of stakeholders involved in the project.
Transportation Survey
A bilingual on-line survey was released in late 2020. It was designed to assess rates of active transportation and transit use, identify barriers to those options, and highlight community resources (hospitals, supermarkets, etc.) that are difficult to access. The survey also included questions about mobility challenges associated with shelter-inplace restrictions and changing work conditions due to COVID-19. The digital survey was made available on the C/CAG project webpage, Jefferson Union High School District webpage, and various jurisdictions in English and Spanish.
6 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County City Council Outreach
Equitable and effective outreach was difficult in the first half of 2021 due to COVID-19 surges. Members of the AG and community leaders expressed concern that many residents of EPCs would not be adequately represented in the CBTP engagement process. As a result, the CBTP team coordinated directly with City staff and leadership to review the current outreach effort and brainstorm new outreach strategies.
On February 22, 2021, the CBTP team facilitated a virtual presentation to the Daly City City Council to solicit ideas for penetrating EPCs and increasing community participation. City Council members shared ideas for potential new events, target communities, and local partners.
On May 17, 2021, the project team presented to the entire Daly City community at a “Local Transportation Challenges Virtual Town Hall” meeting hosted by the City. A graphic notice of the meeting in English, Spanish, Mandarin and Tagalog was placed in the Daly City Spring 2021 Newsletter and the event was introduced by San Mateo County Supervisor David J. Canepa. Low community turn-out to the event was a further indication of the ongoing challenge of community outreach in the first half of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Pop-Up Sessions
Late 2021 saw increasing COVID-19 vaccination rates and relaxation of shelter-inplace mandates. At this time, the CBTP team utilized previous input from AG members, City leaders and community surveys to schedule “Pop-Up” outreach sessions at pre-scheduled events in and near Daly City EPCs. The goals of these events were to collect detailed feedback about transportation challenges directly from EPC residents. CBTP project staff facilitated “map and dot” study board exercises, on-site surveys, and “infrastructure gap” sticker exercises to allow participants to visually identify existing mobility gaps.
Pop-up sessions were conducted at the following events with the following participation rates:
1. 2nd Annual Bayshore Block Party hosted by the Bayshore Parent Teach Organization (PTO) of Bayshore Elementary School on October 16, 2021.
Approximately 47 attendees participated in interactive exercises, comment cards and surveys.
2. Serramonte Farmer’s Market, on December 4, 2021. CBTP project staff facilitated a pop-up event at the market from 8:30 am to 12:00 pm. Nineteen people participated in mapping exercises and 22 people contributed narrative comments.
3. Colma BART Station on February 8th, 2022, from 4:30 to 6:30 pm. Team members set up maps and information in the station’s covered “Free Speech Area.” CBTP team members facilitated map exercises and/or discussions with eight BART riders and collected 12 comment cards.

City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County Recommendations Methodology
Evaluation Criteria
As detailed in Chapter 5, the CBTP project team worked with the AG to establish four evaluation criteria to rank projects and programs by their ability to improve mobility for challenged communities:
1. Reflects Community Priorities
2. Increases Access
3. Is Financially Feasible
4. Ease of Implementation
Scoring Methodology
Recommendations were scored one through five for each evaluation criteria. A score of one reflects the lowest potential for fulfillment of that category; five the highest.
For all project and plans, the following score averages were calculated:
■ Average Score: The average score of Criteria 1 through 4. ■ Area Need Score: The average score of Criterion 1 (Community Priorities) and Criterion 2 (Increases Access).
■ Project Potential Score: The average score of Criterion 3 (Financial Feasibility) and Criterion 4 (Ease of Implementation).
The CBTP team consolidated criteria into the two scores above to improve the likelihood that CBTP projects will be implemented. A focus on recommendations with the highest and/or most immediate potential to get funded and built will support the grant selection and planning. It will facilitate more informed decision-making and awareness of potential challenges for future projects.
Implementation TimeFrame
Each of the following recommendations is assigned one the following three implementation timeframes based on community priority:
1. Short Term (ST). These recommendations are assumed to be implemented in one to three years.
2. Medium Term (MT). These recommendations are assumed to be implemented in three to eight years.
3. Long Term (LT). These recommendations are assumed to be implemented in eight or more years.
Project Types
Recommendations fall within the following groups of projects and plans:
Active Transportation. These are generally capital improvements that increase safe, healthy, active transportation choices, namely walking and biking, for everyday trips.
Active transportation also includes micromobility, which refers to the use of individual, lightweight vehicles, such as bikeshares and e-scooters, typically on a per-ride basis.
Transit and Paratransit. Transit projects may include new routes, expanding operating hours of certain lines, increasing transit line frequency, or improving transit stops with lighting, shelter, and seating.
Safety. School safety projects provide safe, non-motorized routes between where people live and local schools. Examples of safety projects include improvements to school access and student safety, traffic calming on streets with high rates of pedestrians, neighborhood lighting improvements and poorly-secured transit facilities.
Recommendations
The following tables summarize recommended projects and plans, including estimated cost, timeframe and responsible agency(ies) for the three project types. All recommendations are listed in descending order of average score.

City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County
1. Introduction
1.1 Metropolitan Transportation Commission Lifeline Transportation Program In 2001, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) published two reports identifying gaps in the provision of transportation services in low-income Bay Area neighborhoods and initiated two programs to allocate funding for transportation improvement projects based on outreach to low-income communities. The Lifeline Transportation Program (LTP) allocates state and federal funds to provide grants for projects that meet mobility and accessibility needs in low-income communities. The Community-Based Transportation Planning (CBTP) Program is an outreach-based program to improve travel needs in specific low-income Equity Priority Communities (EPC) throughout the Bay Area. Each CBTP is a collaborative effort between community members, transit operators, local jurisdictions and congestion management agencies to identify local mobility challenges and community-oriented solutions.
The projects identified in CBTPs then become eligible for funding through the LTP. The goal of the LTP is to fund projects that result in improved mobility and accessibility for low-income residents of the San Francisco Bay Area. Eligible projects must:
■ Be developed through an inclusive planning process that engages a broad range of stakeholders;
■ Improve a range of transportation choices by adding new or expanded services; ■ Address transportation gaps and/or barriers identified in a CBTP.
Both operating projects and capital projects are eligible for funding under the LTP.
LTP Cycle 6, which covers Fiscal Year 2018–2019 through Fiscal Year 2019–2020 was funded by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Section 5307 Urbanized Area Formula Funds.
MTC distributes a portion of State Transit Assistance (STA) population-based funds STA to CMAs, each of which is tasked with establishing policies to distribute STA Block Grant funds within its jurisdiction. San Mateo County has proposed to allocate 40 percent of funds to SamTrans’ paratransit program and 60 percent to C/CAG for the county-led Lifeline Program.
1.2 CBTP Guidelines
MTC has established guidelines to ensure that CBTP mobility recommendations are the result of community input. Per the 2018 MTC guidelines:
■ All CBTP recommendations must be based on a Community Engagement Plan that includes at least three best practices for outreach to low-income residents. ■ Community outreach must be coordinated with community stakeholders, such as Community Based Organizations (CBO) and non-profits working with the underserved.
■ Each CBTP must convene a Steering Committee composed of social service, CBO, agency, and/or non-profit leadership to review outreach strategies, recommendation selection criteria, and milestones. ■ Each CBTP must identify funding sources for “high-priority” projects.
1.2.1 Equity Priority Communites
As noted in Section 1.1, CBTP study areas are composed of MTC-identified EPCs.
These are census tract-based geographies that exhibit either: 1
1. A low-income population (<200-percent federal poverty level) that exceeds 30 percent and a minority population that exceeds 70 percent; or 1 Metropolitan Transportation Commission, 2021 (modified May 14),”Equity Priority Communities,”mtc.ca.gov. https://mtc. ca.gov/planning/transportation/access-equity-mobility/equity-priority-communities.
14 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan

2. A low-income population that exceeds 30 percent and a population that surpasses MTC thresholds for at least three of the following:
■ Limited English Proficiency (12 percent threshold)
■ Seniors 75 Years and Over (15 percent threshold)
■ Zero-Vehicle Households (15 percent threshold)
■ Single Parent Families (18 percent threshold)
■ People with a Disability (12 percent threshold)
■ Rent-Burdened Households (14 percent threshold)
1.3 2008 Bayshore CBTP
The 2008 Daly City CBTP study area was limited to a single census tract in the Bayshore neighborhood of northeast Daly City. It was identified in MTC’s 2008 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). The 2008 Bayshore CBTP study area consisted of 3,890 people, which at the time, was 3.75 percent of Daly City’s total population. The northern boundary of the study area shared the northern boundary of San Mateo County line, as shown in Figure 1-1. Significant changes in demographics, land use and transportation options have occurred since the adoption of the 2008 Bayshore CBTP, resulting in additional EPAs and revised CBTP study area.
The 2008 Bayshore CBTP recommended 14 transportation related projects, programs, or plans. By 2019, two of the 14 recommendations had been successfully implemented, six recommendations partially implemented, and six not been implemented. The completed projects include improved bicycle facilities installed along Geneva street in 2017 and subsidized monthly transit pass program for low-income riders. Some of the partially implemented recommendations include the Bayshore shuttle, improvements to transit stops, multi-language transportation marketing and a medical services shuttle. More information on the implementation status of the 2008 Bayshore CBTP Recommendations are found here in Table 1-1.
Most of the barriers to implementation of these recommendations involve a lack of funding mechanisms such as unidentified funding or Responsible Agency to research funding. When the implementation of a program or policy relies on coordination across multiple jurisdictions or agencies, the complex planning and communication needed to implement the program or policy becomes a constraint for program or policy success.

1.4 Current Daly City CBTP
1.4.1 Study Area
The current Daly City CBTP study area (study area) is delineated by the red dashed line in Figure 1-2. The study area was determined by the location of four separate EPCs distributed across Daly City, including:
■ Northwest EPC. This EPC is located just south of John Daly Boulevard, at the intersection of Interstate 280. It partially surrounds the Lake Merced Golf Club to the north and west.
■ Northeast EPC. This census tract is in the Bayshore neighborhood of Daly City. It comprised the 2008 Bayshore CBTP study area. It is in the eastern portion of the City and, as shown in Figure 2, shares its northern boundary with San Francisco County.
■ Central EPC. This tract is located immediately east of Interstate 280. Mission Street and East Market Street intersect here, and the Colma BART Station is located here. This is the only EPC that includes an unincorporated area of San Mateo County.
■ Southern EPC. As evident in Figure 2, this tract includes the area North of Hwy 1 and east of St. Francis Boulevard, as well as a larger area southeast of the intersection of Hwy 1 and Skyline Boulevard/SR 35.
1.4.2 CBTP Advisory Group
Per MTC’s CBTP Guidelines, C/CAG convened two Advisory Groups (AG), one to guide the Daly City CBTP and one to guide the concurrent Southeast San Mateo County CBTP. The AGs consisted of representatives from CBOs, non-profits, local jurisdictions, transit agencies, and MTC. The role of the AGs was to ensure transparency and inclusivity throughout the process, review project milestones, and assist in program evaluation. The AGs provided input on reaching specific members of the community, prioritized outreach opportunities, and evaluated the list of policy and project recommendations for the study area.

18 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County Due to challenges of coordinating two Advisory Groups at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the CBTP team decided to combine the Daly City and Southeast San Mateo AGs into a single AG. The AG met four times throughout the outreach process (one in-person, three virtual) to provide practical guidance on local input, reach specific segments of the community, review deliverables, and provide input on project review criteria and CBTP draft recommendations. See Chapter 4 for a complete list of all AG members. AG members also and participated in review of final CBTP recommendations.
1.5 COVID-19 and CBTP Development
The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting shelter-in-place mandate of March 2020 occurred just after the CBTP Community Needs Assessment background report and Community Outreach Strategy were completed. As such, outreach implementation was temporarily halted and revisited. On August 24, 2020 the AG and MTC approved a new strategy for distanced community outreach and agreed that input related to emerging COVID-19 mobility challenges was relevant to the CBTP and resulting recommendations.
COVID-19 cases peaked from November 2020 to February 2021, again in August 2021, and a third time in January 2022. Each peak required delaying or adapting outreach and working with new partners, a process described fully in Chapter 4.
As a result, some of the community feedback that influences recommendations in this CBTP is directly tied into the mobility context, habits, priorities, and challenges influenced by COVID-19.
The City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County (C/CAG), with MTC, determined that it is in the interest of communities in the CBTP study area to adopt this plan in the current context, rather than re-initiate the existing conditions, community outreach, and recommendations processes.

2. Study Area Profile
2013–2017 ACS 5-year estimates, 10 percent of study area residents were White, compared to 40 percent countywide. The Black population is approximately five percent, compared to two percent countywide. 30 percent of the study area population is Latinx compared to approximately 25 percent in the County.
The current Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan (CBTP) study area is composed of four separate census tracts dispersed across the City. This contributes to a diverse demographic and land use profile.
A full CBTP Study Area Community Needs Assessment report is provided in Appendix A.
2.1 Demographic Analysis
This demographic profile compares census tract data from previous and current U.S. Census and American Community Survey 5-year estimates (2006-2010 and 2013-2017) to show trends since the last CBTP. In addition, future projections are provided from the 2017 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), which MTC published in July 2017. Also known as Plan Bay Area (PBA) 2040, this RTP contains forecasts for population, housing, and employment for the horizon year of 2040. For purposes of this analysis, data shown for the study area is limited to the census tracts that make up the four EPCs.
2.1.1 Population
According to the 2013-2017 ACS 5-year estimates, the population of the study area in 2017 was approximately 25,533, having grown eight percent from 2010, when the population was 23,653. This growth rate is similar to growth experienced over the past seven years in San Mateo County overall, where the population grew about nine percent during the same time period, from 704,327 to 767,450 residents. The population of the study area is predicted to increase 25 percent through 2040, to 31,855 residents. This is slightly higher than the county, which is expected to grow by 19 percent from 2017 to 2040, to a population of 916,590.
2.1.2 Race and Ethnicity
The study area contains higher percentages of Asian, Latinx, and Black residents compared than San Mateo County, while having approximately a quarter of the percentage of White residents compared to the County (Table 2-1). According to Table 2-1: Race and Ethnicity
Race Category
2017 ACS % of Population

Source: US Census 2013-2017 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year estimates.
2.1.3 Age Distribution
According to 2013-2017 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year estimates and shown in Figure 2-1, the senior population (65 years of age and older) in the study area is at least 11 percent of the area’s total population in all four separate EPCs. The northeast and southern EPCs both have a higher percentage of seniors, constituting between 13 to 18 percent of the area’s total population. The study area-wide rate of seniors is significantly lower than that of San Mateo County, where 15 percent of the total population is 65 and older.

Daly City CBTP
Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan 23
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County The average population of residents under 18 years of age across the four EPCs is about 20 percent. As shown in Figure 2-2, the EPCs have varying rates of young people. The central EPC, containing the Colma BART station, has the highest percentage of youth with approximately 25 to 28 percent of the population under 18 years of age. In comparison, the EPC located in the northwest portion of the study area, adjacent Lake Merced Golf Club, has a youth population of about half that, comprising approximately 11 to 16 percent of the total population. The other two EPCs have relatively moderate populations under 18 years of age, each with approximately 17 to 20 percent youth. The average rate of young people in the CBTP study area is close to that of San Mateo County, where 21 percent of the total population is under 18 years old.
2.1.4 Disability
Percent disabled population is one of seven tract-level variables that, when paired with a high rate of low-income households, may factor into the establishment of an EPC, per MTC guidelines. The U.S. Census separates disability type into sensory (hearing- and sight-impaired) and physical disabilities. Both are considered significant barriers to mobility.
As shown in Figure 2-3, the rate of individuals with physical disabilities is largely consistent across the study area. In three of the four EPCs, about eight to nine percent of individuals are restricted by a physical disability. That number is slightly less in the southern census tract, where the rate is six to seven percent.
The rate of physical disabilities countywide is about five percent.
As shown in Figure 2-4, rates of hearing or visually impaired individuals in the Daly City study area are relatively low. These rates are concentrated in the central and northeast EPCs, at about four to five percent of the population. This is similar to rates countywide. The southern EPC has the lowest rate of sensory disabilities, at approximately two to three percent.
2.1.5 Language and English Proficiency
On average, the four census tracts in the Daly City CBTP study area exhibit double the rate of limited English proficiency than the countywide population. As shown in Figure 2-5, approximately 18 percent of total households in the study area are designated as “Limited English-Speaking Households”, or households in which all members 14 years and over speak a non-English language, with varying degrees of English fluency. This is compared to the countywide rate of nine percent of total households.
The rate of non-English speaking households is higher than the countywide rate in all four EPCs in the study area. However, the northeastern and southern EPCs have higher incidences of non-English speaking households than the other two EPCs, at 23 percent and 19 percent, respectively.

2.1.6 Poverty Status
The U.S. Census Bureau uses a set of income thresholds that vary by family size and composition to determine the population living in poverty. To reflect high living costs and wages in the Bay Area, the poverty threshold used in the CBTP analysis is 200 percent of the federal poverty threshold. These 200 percent thresholds for the 2013- 2017 ACS 5-year estimates range from $31,754 for a family of two to $101,362 for the largest families (nine people or more).
According to 2013-2017 ACS 5-year estimates, approximately 33 percent of all residents in the four EPCs were living in poverty. This figure is significant when compared to San Mateo County as a whole, where 19 percent of residents live in poverty. Figure 2-6 shows the percent of population in poverty for each census tract area in the study area, based on the 200 percent of federal poverty threshold. The northeast EPC has the highest percentage, with approximately 36 to 45 percent of residents living in poverty. Both the central and southern EPCs have between 31 to 35 percent of residents living in poverty, while the northeastern EPC has the lowest incidence, with impoverished residents comprising 25 to 30 percent of the population.
2.2 Transportation Patterns
The following sections describe current transportation and commute patterns in the CBTP study area and countywide.
2.2.1 Vehicle Availability
Rates of household car ownership in Daly City EPCs are significantly less than in San Mateo County as a whole. As illustrated in Figures 2-7 and 2-8, four times the number of households in the study area, as compared to the county, are without a private vehicle. The percentage of households with two vehicles is also lower, at 60 percent compared to 79 percent countywide. In addition, there are far more households with just one vehicle in the study area than there are in the county.
Figure 2-9 shows the percentage of households with no vehicle by census tract for the study area. The northwest and central EPCs have some of the highest concentrations of households without vehicles. The northeast EPC has the lowest percentage of households with no vehicles, between three and five percent. This is similar to countywide vehicle availability.

2.2.2 Journey to Work
Approximately 69 percent workers aged 16 years and over in the study area travel to work by car, truck, or van. More than three-quarters of these workers drive alone (Table 2-2). Using a vehicle as the primary means of transportation to work is less prevalent in the study area than countywide, in which 79 percent of workers primarily use a personal vehicle.
The northwest EPC has the highest number of residents commuting without a car, with approximately 30 percent taking public transit and nine percent walking. The southern and northeast EPCs have the lowest rate of public transportation use (about 18 percent each), but the southern EPC has a slightly higher incidence of walking and working from home than the eastern EPC.

2.2.3 Long-distance Commute
Commuters in the Daly City CBTP study area do not typically commute more than 30 minutes each way, which is is close to the countywide average of 28.2 minutes.
Three of the four EPCs have an average commute time between 28 and 32 minutes.
The southwest tract has a slightly lower average commute time, ranging from 25 to 27 minutes to work.
2.3 Transportation Network
The following sections describe existing mobility services and infrastructure in the study area and summarizes gaps in the transportation network, as identified in relevant countywide and local plans.
There are multiple transit options in the Daly City study area. The area is served by bus and rail systems managed by numerous agencies. Some transit options serve Daly City EPCs directly, others serve the larger CBTP study area.
2.3.1 Transit Network
The existing transportation network in the Daly City CBTP study area is illustrated in Figure 2-10.
Rail
Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) serves the study area via the Richmond-Millbrae, Antioch-Millbrae, Daly City-Dublin/Pleasanton and Daly City-Warm Springs/South Fremont lines. As shown in Figure 2-10, the Daly City BART Station is located just south of the San Francisco County line and the Colma BART Station is located within the central EPC.
The Bayshore Caltrain station is located at the far northeastern portion of the study area, east of the Bayshore EPC. Caltrain provides regional connectivity from Downtown San Francisco, through San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties to the City of Gilroy.
Bus
As shown on Figure 2-10 the study area is served by several bus routes managed by the San Mateo County Transit District (SamTrans). Figure 2-10 includes recent SamPage 50 of 1462 28 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan

Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan 29
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County Trans routing changes resulting from the operational analysis known as Reimagine SamTrans, recommendations from which were adopted in June 2022 (see Chapter 3). As stated by SamTrans staff, full operation of Reimagine SamTrans routing may be restricted by driver shortages.
The study area is also served by two San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (MUNI) routes along Geneva Avenue in the northeast (Bayshore) EPC and the area immediately surrounding the Daly City BART Station. The northeast EPC is served by the City of Daly City Bayshore Shuttle, which provides free service between the Bayshore neighborhood and Daly City BART, as well as transit connections with SamTrans, Muni and the Balboa BART station.
2.3.2 Paratransit
The entire Daly City CBTP study area is served by SamTrans’ Redi-Wheels paratransit service, servicing those who are unable to use regular, accessible fixed-route transit service. SamTrans conducts in-person evaluations to determine full Redi-Wheels eligibility and issues a Redi-Wheels identification card to those deemed eligible.
Redi-Wheels rides are typically scheduled between one and seven days in advance, or by appointment times at medical and other facilities. Redi-Wheels riders may schedule transfers to other transit agencies and ride regularly scheduled SamTrans fixed-route buses for free.
MUNI’s San Francisco Paratransit program also serves the northeast EPC. The program includes pre-scheduled, shared ADA-compliant van service; Paratransit Taxi service, pre-scheduled group van transportation and The “Van Gough Shuttle” which provides groups of seniors and/or people with disabilities rides to cultural events in San Francisco.
2.3.3 Bicycle Network
Figure 2-11 illustrates the citywide bicycle network as of 2019. It includes a mix of bicycle facility types and provides some connectivity with transit. The following bikeways are represented:
■ Class I bike paths. These are generally paved off-street routes separate from automobile rights-of-way.
■ Class II bike lanes. These are on-street bikeways marked by striping and bike symbols .
■ Class III bike routes. These are bike routes shared with automobiles and typically marked with “bike route” signage and/or “sharrows” that suggest cyclists may use the full lane.
Generally, the CBTP study area is unserved by Class I bike facilities and dedicated Class IV bicycle infrastructure. Only the western side of the northwest EPC is served by a Class I facility, on John Daly Blvd. The northeast EPC is limited to one Class II path on Geneva Boulevard and a single Class III path to the south. The central EPC is the most bike-accessible tract, with a network of Class III paths running in all directions and a Class II path at the northern border. The southern EPC has two Class II bike paths running north-south, including one at its eastern border. The lack of east-west connections here limit neighborhood accessibility for bicyclists.
Examples of existing Class II lanes in Daly City are located on:
■ Geneva Ave. from Bayshore Blvd. to San Francisco city limit ■ Southgate Ave. from Crestwood Dr. to Francis Blvd.
■ Eastmoor Ave. from Santa Paula Dr. to Southgate Ave.
■ Gellert Blvd from Hickey Blvd. to King Dr.
■ Callan Blvd. from Serramonte Blvd. to King Dr.
Examples of existing Class III routes in Daly City are located on:
■ Crocker Ave. from South Hill Blvd. to Mission St.
■ Bellevue Ave. from Crocker Ave. to Daly City limit
■ Junipero Serra Blvd. from John Daly Blvd to south of San Pedro Road ■ Skyline Dr. from Westridge Ave. to City of Pacifica limit ■ San Pedro Rd./E. Market St. from Eastmoor Ave. to Guadalupe Canyon Pkwy. ■ Callan Blvd. from Southgate Ave to Serramonte Blvd.
Moreover, as described in Section 3.3.1 of this report, the city adopted Walk Bike Daly City: City of Daly City Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan, in 2020. The plan proposes new separated bikeways on multiple major roadways, among other bicycle infrastructure improvements

3. Previous and Current Studies
Agencies with jurisdiction in the CBTP study area have adopted studies that expose mobility gaps in the study area and establish projects, plans, and policies to fill those gaps. This section provides a review of these previous studies and the transportation gaps they highlight.
The results of these studies are valuable to understanding and assessing the community input and recommendations outlined in Chapters 4 and 5 of this plan.
3.1 San Mateo County General Plan
The San Mateo County General Plan provides information on existing natural and man-made conditions of the physical environment. It identifies key plans, regulations and agencies that affect planning decisions and makes recommendations for improving coordination between them. The plan indicates the type of development that the County desires, where it should be located and how it should be regulated.
Chapter 12 of the General Plan contains Transportation Policies that establish the county’s transportation-related goals. These include the safe movement of people and goods; the creation of complete streets that serve all modes; increasing the use of transit and ridesharing; and minimizing adverse environmental impacts resulting from transportation system improvements, among others.
San Mateo County has also adopted a series of area, neighborhood and community plans that are considered part of the General Plan. These local documents guide decisions about physical development and circulation within a given community or district. They allow for local application of the broader policies contained in the General Plan.
3.2 Daly City General Plan
The City of Daly City updated its Circulation Element as part of the General Plan Update in 2013. The Circulation Element identifies policies to ensure that adequate transportation facilities are maintained through 2030, to invest in facilities that complement land uses, and to provide a transportation system with a range of choices. In Daly City, topics given special attention include traffic improvements, public transit, bicycle facilities, and mitigation strategies for impacts from individual developments.
Roadway improvements recommended as feasible and necessary to improving the transportation network within the study areas are listed below:
■ Geneva Avenue Extension
■ John Daly Boulevard Overcrossing
■ John Daly Boulevard/Lake Merced Boulevard: Optimize Signal Timings and Adjust Signal Phasing ■ John Daley Boulevard/Park Plaza Drive: Optimize Signal Timings ■ Lake Merced Boulevard/Southgate Avenue Signal
■ I-280 Overcrossings: Pedestrian Improvements
■ Serramonte Boulevard/SR-1 On/Off Ramp: Install Traffic Signal ■ Serramonte Boulevard/Callan Boulevard: Install Traffic Signal ■ St. Francis Boulevard/Clarinada Avenue: Install Traffic Signal ■ Clarinada Avenue/SR-1 On/Off Ramp: Install Traffic Signal In addition to future roadway improvements, the following policies or tasks identify gaps in transportation infrastructure and service in the study area:
■ Task CE-4.4: As part of the comprehensive infrastructure plan for the Geneva Avenue Corridor identified in Task LU-3.2, develop an infrastructure enhancement fee program specific to new development in the Bayshore area which provides funding for any necessary circulation, utility, and joint-benefit projects planned in this area.
32 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County ■ Task CE-7.2: Participate in efforts by MUNI to extend the 14 Mission Street bus service to the Daly City BART Station to the extent that such a connection does not require the installation of additional utilities in Daly City’s right-of-way or create a visual blight on John Daly Boulevard.
■ Task CE-7.3: Participate in efforts by MUNI to extend the T-Third light rail line and construct a multimodal Bayshore transit station.
■ Task CE-7.4: Support efforts to enhance MUNI and SamTrans service in the Bayshore neighborhood.
■ Task CE-8.1: Work with both San Mateo County Transit District and the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency to explore the concept of peak-hour exclusive bus-only lanes along Mission Street and Geneva Avenue. ■ Task CE-11.3: Explore amendments to the Zoning Ordinance to require the payment of parking in-lieu fees for parcels 5,000 square feet or less with direct frontage on Mission Street or Geneva Avenue. As part of any such amendment, the City shall identify capital improvement(s) for both Mission Street and Geneva Avenue toward which in-lieu money is expended within a certain time. These improvements may include any improvements that enhance parking, pedestrian mobility, or public transit access along each respective corridor. ■ Task CE-13.1: As part of the comprehensive infrastructure and streetscape plan for the Geneva Avenue Corridor (see Task LU-3.2), ensure that both public and private improvements provide significant accommodation of both pedestrian and bicycle transportation modes.
■ Task CE-14.1: As part of any City involvement in or comments provided for the Geneva Avenue connection with the Candlestick Highway 101 Interchange, work toward the inclusion of both pedestrian and bicycle transportation modes that, at a minimum, extend those identified in the Geneva Avenue infrastructure plan, and/or Daly City Bicycle Route Map.
■ Policy CE-15: Ensure the new buildings along Mission Street and Geneva Avenue are situated so that they are easily accessible by pedestrians. ■ Task CE-16.6: Work with BART on providing safe pedestrian access to and from the Daly City BART Station that utilizes existing street level crossings on John Daly Boulevard and maximizes either existing or future grade separated crossing(s) at this location.
3.3 Local Transportation and Land Use Plans
3.3.1 Walk Bike Daly City: City of Daly City Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan 2020
This 2020 Plan lays out priority improvements, conceptual designs and supporting actions to expand the City’s network of pedestrian and bicycle facilities, close facility gaps and connect key destinations. The plan acknowledges that walking is the most fundamental form of transportation and that more people walk than bike in Daly City. Notably, the Plan requires that new development and redevelopment projects contribute to adjacent pedestrian and bicycle facilities, as appropriate.
The “Tier I” priority projects established in the Plan showcase identified bike/ped gaps and the City’s overall strategy to fill those gaps. For example, Tier I priority pedestrian projects indicate the challenges of barriers related to key arterials in the City. Projects include:
Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan 33
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County ■ New crossing of John Daly Boulevard (between Niantic Avenue and Willits Street) to the Daly City BART station entrance.
■ Improvements to the intersection of John Daly Boulevard / Junipero Serra Boulevard / I-280 ramps / Highway 1 ramps. ■ Improvements to the intersection of John Daly Boulevard / Skyline Boulevard. ■ Improvements to the intersection of Serramonte Boulevard / Highway 1 ramps.
Tier I priority bikeways projects also indicate existing gaps in bike facilities on arterials in the City. Projects include:
■ Bike lanes and separated bikeways on John Daly Boulevard between Junipero Serra Boulevard and De Long Street
■ Separated two-way bikeway on the north side of John Daly Boulevard between Sheffield Drive and Junipero Serra Boulevard
■ Separated bikeways on John Daly Boulevard between Skyline Boulevard and Fairmont Drive / Ashland Drive; or extension of the path on the south side of John Daly to Skyline Boulevard.
■ Multi-use path from the intersection of John Daly / Skyline Boulevard to Northgate Avenue / N. Mayfair Avenue ■ Separated bikeways on Skyline Boulevard through Daly City
3.3.2 2020 Daly City Vision Zero Action Plan
In 2018, Daly City received a grant from the Federal Highway Administration to develop a Vision Zero Action Plan to eliminate traffic deaths in Daly City, the first such plan in San Mateo County. The 2020 Action Plan uses a data- and community-driven process to establish a local course of traffic safety in the city. The Vision Zero Action Plan includes a detailed 2013-2107 crash analysis based on data from the California Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) database. It includes a series of roadway safety strategies and countermeasures, as well as a comprehensive Safety Plan and evaluation strategy.
The Vision Zero Action Plan represents Daly City’s prioritization of safe mobility for all transportation modes and groups. It will benefit the entire CBTP study area and highlight existing transportation liabilities and solutions.
3.3.3 2021 Unincorporated San Mateo County Active
Transportation Plan
The County of San Mateo Office of Sustainability completed a framework to improve conditions for pedestrian and cyclists throughout unincorporated communities in 2021. Working towards the five major objectives of Access, Safety, Equity, Mode Share and Flexibility, the Plan establishes project and programmatic recommendations in 33 unincorporated areas. These were developed to connect 11 priority destinations for a safe and connected on-street active transportation network. The Plan includes:
■ Twenty-four pedestrian focus areas
■ Fifty-two miles of protected bikeways and trails
■ Twenty-nine programs and policies
34 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County Bicycle recommendation, including proposed facilities, wayfinding resources and parking, were developed to benefit cyclists of all comfort levels. Similarity, proposed pedestrian projects respond to both existing safety data and community-identified gaps, with groups of recommendations developed to benefit rural, urban and suburban locations.
3.3.4 Colma BART Station Area Plan
The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors adopted the Colma Bart Station Area Plan in 1994. The plan provides recommendations to support the transition of the unincorporated area surrounding the Colma BART station into an urban center with high density housing and commercial uses. In addition to land use and community character objectives, it included a series of transportation and circulation objectives, including:
■ Design streets and paths for walking
■ Provide safe and convenient bicycle improvements
■ Provide an interconnected street system
■ Direct BART traffic aways from residential neighborhoods The plan includes multiple bicycle and pedestrian-oriented recommendations to support these transportation objectives, such as:
■ The construction of Class II bikeways on El Camino, San Pedro Road and A Street. ■ Requiring short-term bike parking in areas designated Neighborhood Commercial and long-term bike parking in areas designated High Density Residential. ■ The creation of a pedestrian pathway between El Camino Real and the BART Station.
■ Implementation of pedestrian crossing improvements at various major intersections.
3.4 Countywide Plans and Studies
To better understand gaps in the transportation network, the following policy documents were evaluated to identify proposed transportation projects and plans in the study area.
3.4.1 San Mateo County Transportation Plan for 2040
The San Mateo Countywide Transportation Plan for 2040 (SMCTP 2040) is a longrange, comprehensive transportation planning document that promotes compatibility among all transportation plans and programs within the county. SMCTP 2040 outlines transportation issues associated with countywide growth and establishes overall strategies and programs to overcome the challenges.
SMCTP 2040 includes a list of Proposed Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) Projects comprised of longer-term improvements encouraged by the MTC’s twenty-year RTP.
Some are located, or indicate potential transportation gaps, in the current study area. These include:
■ Mission Street/El Camino Real as part of Grand Boulevard Initiative. ■ Provide overcrossing at 1-280/John Daly Boulevard, a project could benefit the northwest COC directly.
■ 1-280 improvements near D Street exit.
Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan 35
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County
3.4.2 San Mateo County Transportation Plan follow up:
Final Action Plan
The SMCTP 2040 Follow-Up Plan (Final Action Plan) was developed by a multi-agency Working Group to ensure the that goals, projects and programs in SMCTP 2040 would be implemented appropriately. The Final Action Plan:
■ Establishes regional and local roles & responsibilities; ■ Assesses the effectiveness of performance measures in SMCTP 2040 and identifies accountability measures to ensure the Action Plan is reviewed and updated as needed;
■ Includes recommendations for effective community outreach and equitable planning; and
■ Summarizes existing and potential funding sources on the local, state and federal levels.
The Final Action Plan prioritizes funding decisions that consider equity, and stresses that the results of County CBTPs should be used to inform the development of the next SMCTP update.
3.4.3 2021 San Mateo US 101 Express Lanes Equity
Study
This study, completed by the San Mateo County Express Lanes Joint Powers Authority (SMCEL-JPA), addresses longstanding racial inequities and community fracturing associated with the US 101 corridor in San Mateo County. The study establishes a Pilot Equity Program by which toll revenue from the new San Mateo US 101 Express Lanes will be invested to fund transportation benefits for historically underserved communities.
Following a series of technical analyses and a comprehensive community outreach process, The SMCEL-JPA developed a Recommended Equity Program designed to support underserved communities and encourage mode shift from single-occupancy vehicle to transit and other modes. It consists of the following four recommendations:
1. Pre-Loaded Toll Tags. Provide eligible recipients with a new FasTrak Flex toll tag that has been pre-loaded with $50 cash value.
2. Cash on Clipper. Provide eligible recipients with $50 cash value on a new or existing Clipper Card.
3. Clipper START and FasTrak START Enrollment. Enroll qualifying individuals in these regional programs that provide significant benefits to low-income travelers.
● Clipper START. This regional transit fare discount program provides low-income individuals with up to a 50% discount on participating transit services. ● FasTrak START. This program is currently under development by MTC. It proposes to provide discounted tolls on Express Lanes to qualifying low-income individuals.
4. Support for Local Organizations. Provide local service providers and community-based organizations with resources to extend awareness, reach and impact of the Pilot Equity Program.
36 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County
3.4.4 2021 C/CAG San Mateo County Comprehensive
Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan
The Comprehensive Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan (CBPP) presents the network and policy recommendations for improving walking and biking in San Mateo County.
The plan provides recommendations to develop the Countywide Backbone Bicycling Network and Pedestrian Focus Areas, including a gap analysis identifying where new projects are needed, and provides a project list and map, and proposed programs.
Pedestrian Focus Areas are regionally significant areas within the county that are likely to have the highest walking activity. Candidate projects include transit access and Complete Street corridor improvements. Multiple Pedestrian Focus Areas are in the CBTP study area. Pedestrian Focus Areas are prioritized for funding through the CBPP, and the CBPP recommends relevant project and design.
The countywide bike network, called the Backbone Network, links regionally significant destinations across local jurisdictions with the goal of addressing gaps between city boundaries and providing continuous, low-stress bikeways across the county.
Public input received during the outreach process revealed strong support for improved connectivity, mode shift opportunities and safety, including:
■ A more continuous sidewalk network and safe crossings. ■ A more continuous regional bikeway network.
■ A countywide micromobility program.
■ Improve pedestrian and bicycle safety and comfort along arterials and highway crossings.
■ More separated bike lanes and facilities that create a stronger sense of safety and more protection from motor vehicles.
3.4.5 Reimagine SamTrans
The San Mateo County Transit District (SamTrans) Board of Directors adopted the recommendations of a comprehensive operational analysis known as Reimagine SamTrans in 2022. The analysis was based on extensive public outreach and internal evaluation of the transit system to identify improvements for design, connections, routing, timing and other components. The following community priorities came out of the outreach process:
■ More frequent service
■ Faster routes with fewer stops
■ Better real-time arrival information
■ Better connections to BART, Caltrain and other rail systems Reimagine SamTrans is designed to achieve goals of equity, efficiency and connectivity. The analysis found gaps related to route duplication, rail access and bus headways in and accessing Daly City. As a result, it includes recommendations such as changes in headways, timing and rerouting of some bus lines serving Daly City and Colma BART stations, such as 112, 121 and 130.
Many of the program changes adopted as part of Reimagine SamTrans are consistent with community feedback collected during this CBTP process.
3.4.6 San Mateo County Senior Mobility Guide
The Senior Mobility Guide provides information to help San Mateo County residents remain mobile as they age. It outlines a series of programs provided through a range of agencies in the county, including:
■ Bayshore/Brisbane Senior Shuttle: This ride-request service operates during the midday and connects to the Bayshore Caltrain Station. Passengers may call to request a ride within the service area.
■ American Cancer Society – Road to Recovery: A program staffed by volunteer drivers who pick up cancer patients at their homes and take them to anything cancer-related, including doctor’s appointments, radiation treatments, and chemotherapy.
Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan 37
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County ■ Seton Medical Center (Seton BART Shuttle): This hospital offers limited transportation for patients from Daly City BART to Seton Medical Center. ■ Go-Go Grandparent: This nationwide service offers rides 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to all. Vehicles can transport folding wheelchairs and passengers who are transferable, and fares are quoted based on distance traveled and time traveled. ■ Serra Yellow Cab: This program offers dispatch service to/from Daly City, Colma, Brisbane, Pacifica, Broadmoor, Millbrae, Burlingame, Hillsborough, Foster City, Belmont, San Carlos, Redwood City and SFO.
■ SilverRide: This service provides assisted transportation for older adults who want to get things done, socialize and have enriching life experiences. ■ SamTrans Redi-Wheels: This paratransit service is available for people whose disabilities or health conditions prevent them from using the bus.
3.4.7 San Mateo County Transportation Plan for LowIncome Populations The objective of the Countywide Transportation Plan for Low-Income Populations is to fulfill transportation needs of disadvantaged communities in the county. This Plan outlines the following barriers to project implementation based on analyses of previous planning efforts, including the 2008 Bayshore CBTP:
■ Lack of appropriate sustainable and stable funding sources. ■ The absence of a process to promote implementation of projects. ■ Projects that require unusual, complex, or difficult partnerships. ■ Projects that require a degree of administrative resources beyond that of sponsoring agencies.
A series of transportation improvement projects was developed based on a community outreach process. The following impact the study area directly:
■ Add more bus shelters in Daly City.
■ Improve SamTrans connections and service, especially evening services along major arterials.
■ Improve connections and increase service to destinations important to low-income populations. ■ Improve crosswalk safety along John Daly Boulevard in Daly City. ■ Employ a full-time crossing guard at Mission Street and San Pedro Road in Daly City.

4. Outreach and Engagement Summary
All CBTP recommendations are based on a diverse community outreach campaign consistent with Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) Guidelines. The project and plans recommended in this CBTP are the result of outreach to communities in geographic and demographic cross-sections of the study area.
Outreach and engagement included the following:
1. Oversight by an Advisory Group
2. Development of a C/CAG- and MTC-approved
Outreach Strategy
3. Creation and distribution of awareness materials
4. Coordination with community leadership
5. A virtual “Town Hall” meeting
6. Distribution of an online transportation survey
7. Interactive “Pop-Up” events at various events in the study area All materials and raw results of the outreach and engagement process are included in Appendix B to this Plan.
4.1 CBTP Advisory Group
As stated in Chapter 1, a combined Advisory Group (AG) was convened for C/CAG’s Daly City and Southeast San Mateo County CBTPs. This was to ensure an inclusive outreach process during COVID-19, provide direction on reaching specific groups in the community, review milestone materials, prioritize outreach opportunities and inform and prioritize final recommendations. Members of the AG who attended at least one of the meetings include:
■ Susy Kalkin, Transportation Systems Coordinator, C/CAG San Mateo County ■ Malahat Owrang, Senior Transportation Planner, City of Redwood City ■ Raleigh McCoy, Regional Planning Program, Metropolitan Transportation Commission ■ Kevin Chen, Senior Transportation Engineer, City of Menlo Park ■ Gwen Buckley, Senior Planner, SamTrans

4.2 Outreach Process
The COVID-19 pandemic started following C/CAG approval of the original CBTP Outreach Strategy. As such, the CBTP team and AG later adapted the components, timing and sequence of the Strategy to the health restrictions and shelter-in-place mandates beginning in February 2020. In order to illustrate the relationship of COVID-19 on the community engagement process, the following outreach summary is organized chronologically.
4.2.1 August 2019 to February 2020: Initial Outreach
Strategy
The initial outreach strategy phase of the CBTP was from August 2019 to December 2020. During this time, the CBTP team coordinated with the AG to develop and review the Community Needs Assessment report (Appendix A of this study) and discuss early outreach strategies.
AG Meeting #1: Introduction and Outreach Planning
The first AG meeting was convened on August 20, 2019. The CBTP team introduced the CBTP process and Daly City study area, as well as key elements of Community Needs Assessment. The AG discussed challenges of to the engagement process as well as specific opportunities for partnerships. Engagement resources suggested by AG members included, but were not limited to:
■ Serramonte Shopping Center
■ Westlake Shopping Center
■ Serramonte Farmer’s market
■ Lincoln Park
■ St. Andrew’s Church
■ San Mateo County Health Department
■ Seton Hospital
■ Information in Reimagine SamTrans
AG Meeting #2: Outreach Strategy Review
Using information and insight from Meeting #1, the CBTP Team completed the initial CBTP Outreach Strategy in October 2019. The Strategy was based on a process of developing partnerships with community-based organizations (CBOs), completing face-to-face interviews and facilitating community events. The COVID-19 pandemic started during the early phase of implementation.
The second AG meeting was held on February 14, 2020. The full impact of the pandemic, including shelter-in-place mandates, was not yet clear. AG members assisted the CBTP team to identify potential outreach partners, including community stakeholders, community-based organizations (CBOs), and community events. The CBTP team began engaging with these potential partners in this phase, establishing contacts and additional resources.
4.2.2 March-November 2020: Covid-19 and Digital
Outreach
The impacts of COVID-19 on community health priorities and the need to rethink traditional engagement began to peak in March 2020. At this time, the CBTP team reassessed outreach strategies and the availability of community partnerships. In order to facilitate EPC involvement in this initial period of shelter-in-place mandates, the CBTP developed a series of adaptable digital resources.
Project Webpage
The CBTP team developed a project webpage on the C/CAG website containing background information and to function as a clearing house for deliverables, outreach resources and associated external links. The webpage was initially populated with introductory text and the Daly City Community Needs Assessment report. Links to the outreach survey (see below) and AG meeting presentations we added as they became available.
Outreach Flier
Working with the AG and C/CAG staff, the CBTP team developed a graphics-rich Outreach Awareness Flier to provide notice of future outreach opportunities. The flier was developed in English and Spanish (see Figures 4-1 and 4-2) to illustrate the CBTP study area and summarize the project intent. The flier was later uploaded to the
Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan 41
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County C/CAG webpage on websites of agencies and stakeholders involved in the project.
The flier was also adapted for hard-copy distribution at live outreach events that were facilitated later in the CBTP process.
Transportation Survey
In November 2020, the CBTP team completed a bilingual on-line survey of mobility barriers (see Appendix B) designed to assess rates of active transportation and transit use, identify barriers to those options, and highlight community resources (hospitals, supermarkets, etc.) that are difficult to access. Working with MTC, the CBTP team ultimately added questions about mobility challenges associated with shelter-in-place restrictions and changing work conditions due to COVID-19. The digital survey was made available on the C/CAG project webpage, Jefferson Union High School District webpage, and various jurisdictions in English and Spanish. It was also noticed via the outreach flier described above.
AG Meeting #3: COVID-19 Assessment and Approach
The CBTP team presented to the AG at a third meeting on August 24, 2020. The topic of the meeting was new impacts to community participation resulting from COVID-19. The AG discussed the challenges of social distancing recommendations, health concerns for participants and facilitators, and changing priorities for potential CBOs partners such as employment, childcare, and medical assistance. The AG also agreed that EPC residents, whose input must shape CBTP recommendations, represented some of the populations most impacted by COVID-19.
Representatives from MTC attended the meeting. It was agreed that fully digital/ online engagement was not an adequate substitute for traditional community outreach, and that the CBTP would need to engage in a transitional approach involving city assistance and online event planning.
4.2.3 Early-mid 2021: Virtual City Outreach
Implementation of an equitable and effective outreach plan remained challenging in the first half of 2021 due to COVID-19 surges and restrictions. Members of the AG and community leaders expressed concern that many residents of ECPs would not be adequately represented in the CBTP engagement process due to lack of digital resources and required focus on the daily challenges of living with the pandemic.

Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan 43
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County As a result of these challenges, the CBTP team coordinated directly with City staff and leadership. The intent of the following virtual efforts was to review the current outreach effort and brainstorm new strategies for penetrating EPC communities in the new reality of COVID-19.
Daly City City Council
On February 22, 2021, the CBTP team facilitated a virtual presentation to the Daly City City Council to solicit ideas for penetrating EPCs and increasing community participation. The meeting focused on the impacts of COVID-19 to the outreach process, including:
■ Equity issues associated with the “digital divide” and lack of broadband access in EPCs.
■ The COVID-19 mobility landscape in EPCs, including new commute challenges, economic challenges, and daily priorities.
■ The impacts of COVID-19 on Community-Based Organizations (CBOs) originally identified as partners in the CBTP process.
City Council members expressed multiple ideas for reaching EPC residents. Foremost:
■ Mayor Juslyn Manalo and others expressed support for a citywide virtual outreach event noticed with City resources, including the City’s newsletter and mailer support networks.
■ CBTP outreach must target Tagalog-speaking Pacific Islander/Pilipinx communities in EPCs. Councilmembers identified numerous organizations as potential partners, including the Pilipino Bayanihan Resource Center (PBRC), Pacific Islanders Together and Second Harvest. ■ Coordination with local schools was deemed vital, including Jefferson High School, Bayshore Elementary School, Woodrow Wilson Elementary School, and Jefferson Elementary School.
■ The CBTP team should consider shopping centers and local supermarkets for outreach.
“Local Transportation Challenges” Town Hall
On May 17, 2021, the project team presented to the entire Daly City community at a “Virtual Town Hall” meeting hosted by the City. An English-, Spanish, Mandarin- and Tagalog-language notice and registration link was published in the City of Daly City Spring 2021 Newsletter. The event was also noticed using the CBTP Outreach Flier shown in Figures 4-1 and 4-2.
44 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County The CBTP team introduced the process and study area, as well as initial feedback collected from the CBTP survey. An “Open Feedback” session was facilitated, in order to collect feedback regarding:
■ Places in EPCs that are hard to get to;
■ Transit improvements that would meet special mobility needs; ■ Transit routes that feel unsafe or unpredictable;
■ Impact pf COVID on mobility options.
Participants were directed to the C/CAG project webpage and briefed on how to access digital and hard copies of the CBTP survey.
4.2.4 Late 2021-2022: In-Person Outreach
Late 2021 saw increasing COVID-19 vaccination rates and relaxation of shelter-inplace mandates. At this time, the CBTP team utilized previous input from AG members, City leaders and community surveys to to schedule a series of “Pop-Up” outreach sessions at pre-scheduled events in and near Daly City EPCs.
The goals of these events were to collect detailed feedback about transportation challenges directly from EPC residents and record personal narratives describing how these challenges impact daily life. CBTP project staff set up information and feedback tables at each event, with the following visual elements to prompt discussion:
■ Project information and awareness flier
■ Poster-sized study area map boards
■ Hard copies of the transportation survey
■ Poster-sized existing transportation network boards
■ Existing and proposed bicycle and pedestrian network maps CBTP members facilitated the following exercises with attendees to achieve the goals of the pop-up events. Raw results of these exercises are provided in Appendix B. ■ Map and Dot Exercises. CBTP team members used study area boards to allow participants to illustrate transportation gaps and challenges. Participants highlighted mobility challenges and recommendations with color-coded dot stickers and used markers to illustrate travel routes, gaps, and potential solutions. ■ Open Comment Cards. CBTP team members used comment cards to allow participants to expand on map comments or record specific narratives about challenges and ideas for improvement.
■ Survey Distribution. Facilitators passed out the transportation survey, as well as fliers with links to the digital survey, to event participants.
The CBTP team categorized feedback from these sessions into the following four groups of mobility challenges:
1. Pedestrian Mobility Challenges: These are challenges related to gaps in, and conditions of, pedestrian facilities and infrastructure. This category also includes physical barriers to pedestrian mobility, such as dangerous railroad and highway intersections.
2. Bicycle Mobility Challenges: These are challenges related to gaps in, and conditions of, bikeways. This category also includes physical barriers to bicycling, such as dangerous highway intersections.
3. Transit Challenges: Challenges related to transit access, bus stops, and shelters, fixed-route planning and service, paratransit service, and transit cost.
4. Safety and Other Challenges: These are challenges to safe and secure mobility, disabled access, and student access and safety.
The location of all outreach events described above are illustrated on Figure 4-3 (virtual events are shown as located at City Hall).

City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County October 16, 2021: 2nd Annual Bayshore Block Party
The Bayshore Block Party is a community event hosted by the Bayshore Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) of Bayshore Elementary School. This event is popular among Bayshore neighborhood families. Small businesses, police and fire departments, community organizations, Daly City school districts and other groups were represented at the event.
In addition to community members, The CBTP team interviewed members of the Bayshore PTO, Bayshore School staff members, San Mateo County District 5 Supervisor David J. Canepa and a Board Trustee of the Jefferson Union School District.
Participation
CBTP team members facilitated map exercises and/or discussions with 26 individuals and recorded 17 comments. Four hard copy transportation surveys were also submitted at the meeting. Participation is shown in Figure 4-4.
Summary of Results
Bayshore Block Party attendees described barriers to active transportation, transit use and safety. However, Figure 4-5 shows that of the almost 50 total individual responses collected at the event, nearly three-quarters were related to transit and safety challenges, with fewer bicycle and pedestrian challenges represented. This trend is not surprising, given that many participants were parents of small children, the proximity of Bayshore neighborhood to the Cow Palace and major throughfares such as Geneva Avenue, and the historic lack of transit service in the EPC.
Responses were generally focused on the area surrounding the school. Many participants stressed the impacts of illegal vehicle racing associated with Cow Palace events on surrounding streets. Vehicle speeds and lack of traffic calming were identified as high -risk conditions. Transit issues focused on lack of transit service to regional rail, such as Balboa BART Station, as well as retail centers.

City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County December 4, 2021: Serramonte Farmer’s Market
The Serramonte Farmer’s Market is a weekly farmer’s market in the Serramonte Center parking lot hosted by the California Farmers’ Markets Association. CBTP project staff facilitated a pop-up event at the market on Saturday, December 4, 2021, from 8:30 am to 12:00 pm. Individuals participated in the feedback process as they explored the market.
Participation
CBTP team members facilitated map exercises and/or discussions with 19 individuals and recorded 22 comments, as shown in Figure 4-6.
“It seems like there should more pedestrian protections on Callan, Westlake and Serramonte. Traffic and lighting are scary.” -Serramonte Farmer’s Market attendee
Summary of Results
Participants in this pop-up event expressed general concern for access and traffic-related safety at and surrounding Serramonte Mall. Other safety concerns included lack of lighting in surrounding residential areas. As shown in Figure 4-7, the largest number of attendee comments, about 60 percent, were focused on these safety issues.
Participants described the general difficulty of getting to Serramonte Center on transit or via active transportation. Many participants highlighted specific street segments, intersections and businesses on, or around, which traffic is a barrier.
Resulting reliance on driving creates bottlenecks into and out of the mall, and near popular destinations such as Target and In-N-Out. Some individuals identified lack of lighting in the Midvale Dr. and St. Francis neighborhood. Others named vehicle speeds along St. Francis Boulevard, Callan Boulevard and Wembley Drive as safety concerns. Many of the participants voiced the need for additional traffic calming measures on local streets.

On February 8th, 2022, from 4:30 to 6:30 pm, team members facilitated a pop-up event in the “Free Speech Area” of the Colma BART station.
Participation
CBTP team members facilitated map exercises and/or discussions with eight BART riders and collected 12 comment cards, as shown in Figure 4-8.
Summary of Results
Not surprisingly, the majority of comments collected at the BART station were about gaps in station access and conditions at the station itself. For example, commenters cited bus frequency issues, specifically the SamTrans Routes 122 and 130. Others cited the need for improved pedestrian and bike facilities accessing the station (see Figure 4-9).

4.2.5 In-Person Feedback Summary
As shown in Figure 4-10, just over 100 individual comments were collected from EPC community members during the in-person CBTP outreach process. This does not include on-line transportation survey responders. The CBTP team collected over 50 narrative comments from community members and facilitated mapping techniques with an equivalent number of people.

Commenters
As shown in Figure 4-11, participating members of EPCs in Daly City named transitand safety- related issues as the most significant barriers to mobility. The rate of each among total input was about one-third. This may be partially attributed to the location of the EPCs and the location of the pop-up events. For example:
■ The location of the northeast/Bayshore EPC is historically underserved by regional and intra-city transit options. ■ Attendees of the Bayshore Block Party included parents of young children concerned about street and school safety. ■ Attendees of the Bayshore Block Party included various school district representatives who highlighted the lack of transit connections beween Bayhore Unified School Disiticts and Jefferson Union School District.
■ Many Serramonte Farmer’s Market attendees were senior citizens who identifed neighborhood lighting, bus shelter safety and transit safety concerns. ■ Particpants at the Colma BART Station event were transit riders by default, and thus more likely to be familiar with other local transit options.
52 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County ■ Current SamTrans bus routes do not serve residential subdivisions - no first/last leg connection. If any, it is too far and too long of a wait. Prefer that current battleship-sized SamTrans buses are smaller (i.e.: shuttle) so they can penetrate each residential subdivision.
■ Tener estaciones seguras con LUZ, bancas y paredes que protegen y que sean limpias ya que hay mucha neblina y viento en DC. Es súper difícil andar con bastón, bolsa, paraguas, suéter, chaqueta e impermeable...para ir al doctor o a la tienda. (Have safe stations with LIGHT, benches and walls that protect and are clean since there is a lot of fog and wind in DC.

4.3 Digital Survey Results
Digital survey responders were a generally evenly-distributed age group from the 94015 and 94014 ZIP codes. About one-quarter were 19-29 years old, one-quarter 30-44 years old and nearly a third were over the age of sixty. As shown in Figure 4-12, responders primarily ride BART and SamTrans. Responders who selected the “Other” category identified systems such as SF Muni and corporate shuttles. Route design and delays were the most commonly cited barriers to transit mobility. The location and quality of bus stops were also identified (see Figure 4-13).
Examples of specific transit barriers and improvements directly suggested by responders include:
■ Addition of feeder buses to/from SamTrans for households not on main SamTrans routes. Replacement of large-sized over-the-road coaches…with on-demand shuttle vans.

Over 80 percent of responders stated they either “Never” or “Rarely” ride a bike.
They highlighted “Lack of bike lanes” and “Dangerous streets or intersections” as the main bike-related problems they encounter (Figure 4-14).
Examples of specific bicycle-related improvements suggested by responders include:
■ I’d love to ride a bike around town, such as to the BART station. However, there are no bike lanes on John Daly Blvd (west). I would not ride without protected bike lanes on that road.
■ The bike lane is so small, so cars dominate the road. If the bike lane were wider and if there was a way to have a safer, more protected lane for bikes, that would be ideal.
On the other hand, walking was common among those surveyed. About 50 percent of responders stated they walk “Daily”, while 34 precent walk “On occasion.” As shown on Figure 4-15, poor lighting, poor sidewalk conditions and dangerous intersections were identified as the biggest barriers to pedestrian mobility.
54 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County Examples of specific pedestrian improvements suggested by responders include:
■ Several intersections around Mission Street, San Jose Ave, John Daly Blvd, and BART, are very difficult and/or scary for pedestrians. Some crosswalks have poor visibility at the corners. Some crosswalks require multiple light cycles to get all the way across. Several intersections have no crosswalk, and no convenient alternative, so pedestrians regularly attempt to walk through traffic to get across. ■ Pedestrian improvements that are needed are when walking at sundown, it seems hard to see without good lighting.
■ Outside of the residential areas, walking to the bank or groceries feels somewhat unsafe because the cars here like to drive quickly.
According to survey responders and shown in Figure 4-16, supermarkets, transit stations and medical facilities are considered “hard to get to” on a daily basis.
Responders were asked to identify specific hard-to-access places and describe improvements for improving access. Example answers include:
■ Target, supermarket, school, clinic. It would be easier if there were safe walking conditions and bike lanes.
■ [Access improvements needed to] Convenience stores etc. rather than Malls and hospitals. Can you imagine if SF buses only stopped at major dept stores and hospitals on Mission street?
■ Junipero Serra Blvd is not continuous for pedestrians or bicyclists. Suggest connect[ing] DC Bart with Colma BART with Serramonte Shopping Center. CREATE MORE BIKE ONLY / PEDESTRIAN ONLY ROUTES [original boldface]. Is there a shortcut from DC BART to School St without crossing I-280? There is a cyclone fenced area on eastside of I-280 that can be made into a pedestrian walkway. ■ [Community needs] multiple busses to the Bayshore [sic].

5. Methodology and Recommendations
This chapter identifies all recommended projects and plans for the Daly City CBTP.
It outlines the evaluation criteria, evaluation methodology, and scoring approach used to identify and rank those recommendations. Potential funding sources, a key consideration in the evaluation process, are summarized.
5.1 Evaluation Criteria
The CBTP project team worked with the Advisory Group (AG) at a fourth meeting on April 14, 2022, to review four evaluation criteria deemed appropriate to rank projects by their ability to improve mobility. Criteria such as community benefit, degree of transportation improvement, current relevance, future technological challenges, usability and access, available funding, potential for cross-jurisdictional challenges, and ability to resolve mobility barriers were discussed.
Ultimately, the following four criteria were selected to score projects and plans:
1. Reflects Community Priorities

4. Ease of Implementation
5.1.1 Reflects Community priorities
This criterion is the degree to which a project or plan is consistent with the priorities and needs of residents, community stakeholders, and leaders in Equity Priority Communities (EPC). Projects were ranked highly under this criterion if they:
■ Reflect a theme in the community feedback collected during the CBTP outreach process described in Chapter 4;
■ Are consistent with community mobility challenges identified in past plans and studies and the existing conditions analysis prepared for this CBTP; ■ Support transportation goals established in current plans and studies; and ■ Are consistent with projects prioritized in the 2008 Bayshore CBTP, but not yet implemented.
5.1.2 Increases Access
This criterion is the potential of a project to improve access to key facilities and locations across the study area. As noted in Chapter 1, the current CBTP study area is loosely based on four discontinuous EPCs located across Daly City. Given the geographic scale and diversity of mobility gaps across the study area, projects with one of two benefits score highly under this criterion: those that would improve connectivity between systems and those that would facilitate mobility for groups challenged by limited options.
5.1.3 Is Financially Feasible
Cost and feasibility are important considerations for evaluating projects. This criterion considers more than the anticipated budget of a project, as one project may be more expensive than another but it may be eligible for a range of different funding sources, while the other project may be less expensive but does not fit into readily available funding categories.
MTC’s CBTP guidelines are developed to ensure that mobility recommendations are the result of community input. Assessing the financial feasibility of projects is a tool to identify projects that are likely to find further support and move quickly to implementation. Projects were ranked under this criterion by estimates of hard costs, analyzing the potential for funding based on project type, and reviewing historical financial challenges.
One of the most significant considerations in this criterion was revenue loss to transit providers resulting from COVID-19, which have impacted the current flexibility of providers to fund new projects. Many transit recommendations in this plan are outside committed funding sources, while project outreach and research indicate high transit needs within the community. This increases the feasibility of projects that are aligned with existing plans and studies. This Plan assumes that future conditions will reposition the financial feasibility of transit projects and funding strategies for transit should continue to be developed.
56 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County Ranking projects under this criterion included reviewing potential funding sources for local and countywide mobility projects. These include:
■ Senate Bill 375. California Senate Bill (SB) 375, passed in 2008, directs the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to set up regional targets for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions with regional Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs).
The GHG targets are implemented through the MPO’s regional Sustainable Communities Strategies (SCS). Below are a list of funding and grants offered by MTC as part of their SCS in fulfillment of SB 375.
● Lifeline Transportation Program. Funds offered by MTC for projects that are identified through a collaborative, inclusive, community-driven process, and that address transportation gaps and barriers identified in Community Based Transportation Plans or other local planning efforts in low-income neighborhoods. ● One Bay Area Grant Program (OBAG) . These grants are awarded to transit-oriented development projects located in Priority Development Areas—areas targeted for compact growth identified in Plan Bay Area (MTC’s SCS). Priority is given to cities and counties that have been proactive in creating more housing and who have accepted a proportionally higher allocation of housing units through the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) process. ● Caltrans Active Transportation, Complete Streets, and Safe Routes to School Programs. Active Transportation grants fund transportation improvements that foster healthy activity, namely walking and biking. Complete Streets grants improve sidewalks and curbs that connect to important destinations.
Safe Routes to School grants fund projects that provide safe walking and biking routes between neighborhoods and local schools.
● Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) Grants . BAAQMD offers a variety of funding sources for projects that reduce air pollution in the Bay Area, like their Carl Moyer Program, which provides grants to replace or upgrade heavy-duty diesel vehicles. ■ Caltrans Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP). HSIP offers grants for local roadway infrastructure projects with demonstrated crash reduction potential, located in areas with high crash rates or at high risk of crashes. ■ FHWA Accelerating Safety Activities Program (ASAP). Funds demonstration projects less than $20,000 in FHWA Safety Focus states (CA is a bicycle and pedestrian focus state). ■ MTC Transportation Development Act Article 3 (TDA3) Local Transportation Fund. Fifty-percent match for planning and education projects only: Bicycle and pedestrian design and construction; bicycle and pedestrian education programs; comprehensive bicycle and pedestrian plans.
■ Transportation for Livable Communities (TLC). These funds are intended to support local efforts to achieve more compact, mixed-use development, and development that is pedestrian-friendly or linked into the overall transit system. ■ California Air Resources Board (CARB) Sustainable Transportation Equity Project (STEP). This program launched in 2020 that funds transportation and planning projects that reduce GHG emissions in California. ■ Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Section 5310 - Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and People with Disabilities Program. Funds projects that improve mobility for seniors and people with disabilities by identifying and removing barriers and improving transportation services like paratransit. This project is part of the FAST Act of 2015.
Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan 57
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County ■ Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Grants. Federal Highway Administration grants to fund projects that are meant to significantly reduce traffic fatalities on public roads. The HSIP program is a part of the 2015 FAST Act. ■ Regional Surface Transportation Block Grant. Grants provided by the FTA to states and localities for different transportation projects, including highway improvements, bridge or tunnel projects on public roads, pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, and transit capital projects.
■ Measure A Pedestrian and Bicycle Program. San Mateo County Transportation Authority (SMCTA)-administered grants for new capital infrastructure based on readiness and need, effectiveness, policy consistency, sustainability, and funding leverage.
■ Measure W Pedestrian and Bicycle Program. 2019 SMCTA-administered grants to fund local street repair, grade separations for Caltrain tracks that intersect local streets, expanded bicycle and pedestrian facilities, and improved transit connections.
5.1.4 Ease of Implementation
Numerous factors influence the ease or difficulty of initiating, completing, and putting a project into action. While a recommended project or program may align with community priorities, likely benefit many and appear a candidate for funding, assessing the challenges of implementation remains critical. Determining that the challenges of implementation of a single project are significant, facilitates the identification of other, more implementable projects that achieve the same benefits.
Factors used to assess the ease of implementation of recommendations include:
■ Required cross-agency coordination (more than one agency involvement adds complexity and time to projects)
■ Cross-jurisdictional physical footprint (multiple jurisdictions means more effort and time to be approved)
■ Engineering complexity (cost and schedule implications arise from more complicated projects) ■ Lack of technological “future proofing;” (the potential that a project will become obsolete due to new technologies).
5.2 Evaluation Process
As noted, the evaluation criteria outlined in Section 5.2 were developed in consultation with the AG and MTC and then applied to candidate projects. This was part of a larger evaluation process that included the following steps:
1. Developed lists of potential projects and plans directly from community members during the outreach process. Not all qualitative community feedback collected during the outreach process, including comment responses, map-based inputs, and written survey responses (see Appendix B), translated directly into the lists of recommended projects and plans in this CBTP.
2. Worked with the AG to develop the evaluation criteria outlined in Section 5.2.
3. Applied the four criteria to potential projects and plans, including:
● Assessment of candidate projects against existing mobility plans to identify those supportive of relevant mobility goals or redundant with implemented projects.
● Assessment of the feasibility of candidate projects in terms of required agency coordination, funding potential, and historic implementation challenges.
4. Distributed an initial version of the ranked recommended projects to the AG for review and revision.
5. Revised and finalized priority projects and plans based on comments of the AG.
5.2.1 Criteria Scoring Categories
Recommendations were scored one through five for each evaluation criterion. A score of one reflects the lowest potential for fulfillment of that category; five the highest. For all project and plans, the following score averages were calculated:
■ Average Score: The average score of Criteria 1 through 4. ■ Area Need Score: The average score of Criterion 1 (Reflects Community Priorities) and Criterion 2 (Increases Access) ■ Project Potential Score: The average score of Criterion 3 (Financial Feasibility) and Criterion 4 (Ease of Implementation)
58 Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan
City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County The four criteria were organized into the above two scores to improve the implementability of the CBTP as a whole. Identifying those recommendations with the highest and/or most immediate potential to get funded and built will support the grant selection, timing and planning processes. It will facilitate improved, more informed decision-making, and/or awareness of potential challenges in the future.
5.2.2 Implementation TimeFrame
Each of the following recommendations is assigned one the following three implementation timeframes based on community priority:
1. Short Term (ST). These recommendations are assumed to be implemented in one to three years.
2. Medium Term (MT). These recommendations are assumed to be implemented in three to eight years.
3. Long Term (LT). These recommendations are assumed to be implemented in eight or more years.
5.2.3 Project Types
After review of all proposed projects and programs, we found that recommendations fall within the following three types of projects and plans:
1. Active Transportation. These projects are generally new and improved bicycle and pedestrian facilities and micromobility programs. Examples include separated bike paths and cycle tracks, intersection signalization improvements, sidewalk audit and repair programs and bike storage at important destinations like transit hubs. Micromobility refers to the use of individual, lightweight vehicles, such as bikeshares and e-scooters, typically over short distances.
2. Transit and Paratransit. These projects may include new routes, expanding operating hours of certain lines, increasing transit line frequency, or improving transit stops with lighting, shelter, and seating.
3. Safety. Safety projects decrease danger and potential for harm for all residents EPCs. Examples of safety projects include improvements to school access and student safety, traffic calming on streets with high rates of pedestrians, neighborhood lighting improvements and poorly-secured transit facilities.
5.3 Recommended Projects and Plans
According to a CBTP program evaluation performed by MTC in 2022, overly-general CBTP recommendations developed without input from cities have historically faced implementation challenges.1
The following section includes tables of all recommended projects and plans across the three categories for the Daly City CBTP study area. The recommendations generally reflect location- , route- or resource- specific barriers rather systemwide or topical improvements.
In each table, the average score, area need score and project potential score are shown for recommendations, as well as the estimated cost. All recommendations presented in this Plan are considered viable options that reflect community priorities.
5.3.1 Active Transportation Projects and Plans
Only about 17 percent of CBTP transportation survey responders ride a bike “On Occasion” or more often, while about 97 percent walk the same amount. The majority of the following 11 prioritized projects and plans, which are shown in descending order of average score, are pedestrian -oriented improvements along major thoroughfares and intersections. Protected bike and pedestrian facilities are also represented, which is consistent with the fact that survey responders’ identified “Lack of bike lanes” and “Dangerous streets and intersections” as the two most common barriers to getting around by bike. The projects in Table 5-1 were identified by the community, in current studies and during AG review and coordination. Funding for active transportation and multi-modal safety remains available in the wake of COVID-19 mobility changes.

5.3.2 Transit and Paratransit Projects and Plans
Equity Priority Communities have remained disproportionally reliant on transit service, as compared to other communities, during the pandemic. While station entries across the BART system dropped 87 percent from September 2019 to September 2020, drops were uneven from station to station. Ridership at Orinda Station, where 72 percent of the population is white, saw a 94 percent drop in ridership. In comparison, Colma Station, located where 36 percent of the population is Black or Latinx, saw an 86 percent drop in year over year ridership.2
Accessible public transit remains a mobility backbone for EPC communities. This was borne out in the Daly City outreach process, during which low-income, youth and elderly residents identified area-wide and route-specific gaps, improved information campaigns and bus stop upgrades as needed community improvements. 2 Bay Area Council Economic Institute, September 2020, Economic Profile 2020: Housing and Transportation in a PostPandemic Bay Area, http://www.bayareaeconomy.org/report/housing-and-transportation-in-a-post-pandemic-bay-area/, accessed November 9, 2020.
Both SamTrans and BART were implementing major improvement plans in 2022, including BART’s Measure RR rebuilding program and the June adoption of final new Reimagine SamTrans projects by the SamTrans’ Board of Directors. It should be noted that the following route changes identified in the CBTP process have not been included in the following list of recommendations because they have been adopted as separate Reimagine SamTrans projects:
■ Increase weekday and weekend frequencies of SamTrans Route 110. ● Reimagine SamTrans Route 110 Alternative 1: Increase frequency of Route 110 to 30-minute headways on weekdays and weekends.
■ Increase weekday, weekend and evening frequencies of SamTrans Route 120. ● Reimagine SamTrans Route 120 Alternative 1: Increasing frequency of Route 210 to 10-minute headways between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m.; 15-minute headways on weekdays and weekends; and double evening service levels seven days a week
■ Improve routing and speed of SamTrans Route 121 from Daly City BART Station ● Reimagine SamTrans Route 121 Alternative 1: Reduce route duplication with Routes 130 and 122 and reduce travel times between Daly City BART and Seton Medical Center and Skyline College.
The 10 projects and plans in Table 5-2 are listed in descending order of average score. The recommendations indicate community preference for increased crosstown and San Francisco-based bus routes, the desire for a more robust program of transit options in Bayshore, and improved bus shelters near popular shopping and resources. The projects were identified by the community, in current studies and during AG review and coordination.

5.3.3 Safety Projects and Plans
The five projects and plans in Table 5-3 are listed in descending order of average score. These projects do not include non-schools related pedestrian or bicycle safety improvements, which are categorized as Active Transportation projects. Most of the recommendations are the result of community feedback collected from families and various school district volunteers at the Bayshore Block Party. The “overflow” impact of racing events held at the Cow Palace on the safety of surrounding roads was a common topic. A review of the Porsche Club of America website showed that four racing events were scheduled in the Cow Palace parking lot from April to August of 2022.3
Return to in-school learning following pandemic-related school closures during the entire 2020-21 school year, and part of the 2021-22 school year, refocused communities on school safety. Discussions with representatives from Bayshore Unified School District and Jefferson Unified School District highlighted the need for improve safety infrastructure at several school in the CBTP study area. Moreover, about 15 percent of survey responders identified schools as a “place that is hard to get to each day.”
5.4 Evaluation and Monitoring
This CBTP update contains a diverse list of recommended projects, including capital improvements, programmatic studies, and informational campaigns. Each of these is associated with a unique set of funding challenges and opportunities. The manner in which the projects are integrated into local programming also differs, whether via inclusion in a Capital Improvement Program (CIP) or adoption as local policy. Limited staff resources and multijurisdictional coordination are historic challenges to CBTP progress across the project spectrum.
Implementation of this Plan will require ongoing commitment by Daly City and partner agencies to move recommendations forward. Success will also depend on the ability of C/CAG to regularly monitor CBTP progress, maintain a record of project milestones, and offer support to responsible agencies.
3 Porsche Club of America website, Autocross, https://pca-ggr.org/autocross/, accessed August 12, 2022.
In order to facilitate monitoring by C/CAG, this CBTP contains an Annual CBTP Tracking Checklist (Appendix A) to be completed by Daly City each year (beginning with adoption date of the CBTP) and submitted to C/CAG. The Checklist will help:
■ Facilitate communication between Daly City and C/CAG. ■ Document individual project progress.
■ Tally all “In Progress” CBTP projects.
■ Evaluate overall CBTP implementation.
As shown in Appendix A, the Checklist begins with a summary of total recommendations in the CBTP. It allows staff to list all CBTP projects for which one or more milestones have been reached, “check” the category of each milestone, and briefly describe and date the milestone. The three categories of milestones are:
1. Funding: Examples of these milestones include grant submissions, receipt or allocation of funds, completion of detailed expenditure plans and others.
2. Local Adoption/Programming. Examples of these milestones include the addition of project(s) into a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) or budgetary document, formalization of a project as policy or action in a local planning document and others.
3. Implementation. These are milestones representative of upcoming or ongoing use of project funds, such as RFP release; execution of outside contracts; and project kick-off, internal milestones and completion.
The Checklist closes with a tally of the total number of projects tracked for the year.

Daly City CBTP Community Needs Assessment
INTRODUCTION
This report documents existing demographic and transportation conditions in transportation-challenged communities in and near Daly City. The information will inform the Daly City Community-Based Transportation Plan (CBTP) to be prepared by the San Mateo City/County Council of Governments (C/CAG).
CBTPS AND THE LIFELINE TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM
In 2001, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) concluded that community-oriented planning was required to address the travel needs of residents in low-income Bay Area neighborhoods.
MTC implemented two complimentary programs designed to allocate funding for transportation improvement projects based on intensive outreach to low-income communities.
The goal of the CBTP program is to improve mobility in “Communities of Concern” (COC). These are neighborhoods defined by a series of census tract-level factors that increase susceptibility to transportation access gaps. These factors include high rates of minorities, low-income residents, seniors, and lack of car ownership. Per MTC guidelines, CBTPs require a diverse outreach plan to multiple community stakeholders, as well as ongoing coordination with local advisory committees.
CBTPs facilitate the identification of projects that are eligible for funding under the Lifeline Transportation Program (LTP). The LTP was designed to fund projects that result in improved mobility for low-income and other challenged communities. Per its 2018 guidelines, projects that are eligible for funding by the LTP must:
Be developed through an inclusive planning process that engages a broad range of stakeholders. Improve a range of transportation choices by adding new or expanded services. Address transportation gaps and/or barriers identified in CBTPs or other substantive local planning efforts involving focused outreach to low-income populations.
The Daly City CBTP will include a series of project and program recommendations developed according to the program outreach guidelines, and consistent with the funding requirements established in the LTP.

2008 BAYSHORE CBTP
The most recent CBTP for the Daly City area was adopted in 2008. The 2008 Bayshore CBTP included a study area comprised of a single census tract in northeast Daly City. The northern boundary of the study area shares the northern boundary of San Mateo County line, as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1 2008 Bayshore CBTP Study Area
The 2008 Bayshore CBTP recommended a series of operations-based and capital programs for improved mobility in the community. The degree to which these recommendations have been implemented and the resulting lessons learned for the current CBTP are discussed in the 2008 CBTP Implementation Status section at the end of this document.
Significant changes in demographics, land use and transit options have occurred in the last 11 years, prompting initiation of the current Daly City CBTP and revised Study Area.

CURRENT DALY CITY CBTP STUDY AREA
The Daly City CBTP study area (herein referred to as “study area”) is delineated by the red dashed line in Figure 2. The study area has been determined by the location of four separate COCs distributed across Daly City. These COCs, each a single census tract, include:
Northwest COC. This COC is located just south of John Daly Boulevard, at the intersection of Interstate 280. It partially surrounds the Lake Merced Golf Club to the north and west. Northeast COC. This census tract is in the Bayshore neighborhood of Daly City. It comprised the 2008 Bayshore CBTP study area. It is in the eastern portion of the City and, as shown in Figure 2, shares its northern boundary with San Francisco County.
Central COC. This tract is located immediately east of Interstate 280. Mission Street and East Market Street intersect here, and the Colma BART Station is also located within the tract. This is the only COC that includes an unincorporated area of San Mateo County. Southern COC. As evident in Figure 2, this tract includes the area North of Hwy 1 and east of St.
Francis Boulevard, as well as a larger area southeast of the intersection of Hwy 1 and Skyline Boulevard/SR 35.
The demographic information in this report reflects conditions within the four COC census tracts, not the entire study area. This is consistent with the CBTP guidelines. However, the community focus, reliance on outreach, and potential transportation solutions that result from the CBTP will not be limited to these isolated census tracts. Broader focus on the study area shown in Figure 2 will facilitate the development of projects and plans that provide connectivity, fill transit gaps and include full communities.
DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS
This demographic profile compares census tract data from previous and current U.S. Census and American Community Survey 5-year estimates (2006-2010 and 2013-2017) to show trends since the last CBTP. In addition, future projections are provided from the 2017 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), which MTC published in July 2017. Also known as Plan Bay Area (PBA) 2040, this RTP contains forecasts for population, housing, and employment for the horizon year of 2040. For purposes of this analysis, data shown for the study area is limited to the census tracts that make up the COCs shown in Figure 2.
TOTAL POPULATION AND HOUSEHOLD SIZE
According to the 2013-2017 ACS 5-year estimates, the population of the study area in 2017 was approximately 25,533, having grown 8 percent from 2010, when the population was 23,653. This growth rate is similar to growth experienced over the past seven years in San Mateo County overall, where the population grew about 9 percent during the same time period, from 704,327 to 767,450 residents. The population of the study area is predicted to increase 25 percent through 2040, to 31,855 residents. This is slightly higher than the county, which is expected to grow by 19 percent from 2017 to 2040, to a population of 916,590.

AGE DISTRIBUTION
Seniors
According to 2013-2017 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year estimates and shown in Figure 3, the senior population (65 years of age and older) in the study area is at least 11 percent of the area’s total population in all four separate COCs. The northeast and southern COCs both have a higher percentage of seniors, constituting between 13 to 18 percent of the area’s total population. The study area-wide rate of seniors is significantly lower than that of San Mateo County, where 15 percent of the total population is 65 and older.
Youth
The average population of residents under 18 years of age across the four COCs is about 20 percent. As shown in Figure 4, the COCs have varying rates of young people. The central COC, containing the Colma BART station, has the highest percentage of youth with approximately 25 to 28 percent of the population under 18 years of age. In comparison, the COC located in the northwest portion of the study area, adjacent Lake Merced Golf Club, has a youth population of about half that, comprising approximately 11 to 16 percent of the total population. The other two COCs have relatively moderate populations under 18 years of age, each with approximately 17 to 20 percent youth. The average rate of young people in the CBTP study area is close to that of San Mateo County, where 21 percent of the total population is under 18 years old.
DISABLED POPULATIONS
Percent disabled population is one of seven tract-level variables that, when paired with a high rate of lowincome households, may factor into the establishment of a COC, per MTC guidelines. The following discussion includes rates of both physical disabilities as well as sensory disabilities such as visual and hearing impairment.
Physical Disability
As shown in Figure 5, the rate of individuals with physical disabilities, defined as those that restrict full motor capacity, is largely consistent across the study area. In three of the four COCs, about 8 to 9 percent of individuals are restricted by a physical disability. That number is slightly less in the southern census tract, where the rate is 6 to 7 percent.
The rate of physical disabilities countywide, at about 5 percent, is less than all COCs in the study area.

Sensory Disability
According to 2013-2017 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year estimates, rates of hearing or visually impaired individuals in the Daly City study area are relatively low. The central and northeast COCs contain higher rates of people with sensory disabilities, at about 4 to 5 percent of the population, than the other two COCs. As shown in Figure 6, the southern COC has the lowest rate of sensory disabilities, at approximately 2.1 to 3 percent.
The rate of sensory disabilities countywide, at about 4 percent, is similar to the central and northeast COCs.
LANGUAGE LIMITATIONS
On average, the four census tracts in the Daly City CBTP study area struggle with double the rate of limited English proficiency than the countywide population. As shown in the Figure 7 bar chart, below, approximately 18 percent of total households in the study area are designated as “Limited EnglishSpeaking Households”. These are households in which all members 14 years and over speak a non-English language, with varying degrees of difficulty with English. This is compared to the countywide rate of 9 percent of total households.
The rate of non-English speaking households is higher than the countywide rate in all four COCs in the study area. However, the northeastern and southern COCs have higher incidences of non-English speaking households than the other two COCs, at 23 percent and 19 percent, respectively.

Figure 7 Limited English Proficiency, CBTP Study Area and San Mateo County Source: 2017 ACS 5-Year Estimates (2013-2017).
POVERTY STATUS
The U.S. Census Bureau uses a set of income thresholds that vary by family size and composition to determine the population living in poverty. If a family’s total income is less than the poverty threshold, then that family and every individual in it is considered to be living in poverty. To reflect high living costs and wages in the Bay Area, the poverty threshold used in the CBTP analysis is 200 percent of the federal poverty threshold. These 200 percent thresholds for the 2013- 2017 ACS 5-year estimates range from $31,754 for a family of two to $101,362 for the largest families (nine people or more).
According to 2013-2017 ACS 5-year estimates, approximately 33 percent of all residents in the four COCs were living in poverty. This figure is significant when compared to San Mateo County as a whole, where 19 percent of residents live in poverty. Figure 8 shows the percent of population in poverty for each census tract in the study area, based on the 200 percent of federal poverty threshold. The northeast COC has the highest percentage, with approximately 36 to 45 percent of residents living in poverty. Both the central and southern COCs have between 31 to 35 percent of residents living in poverty, while the northeastern COC has the lowest incidence, with impoverished residents comprising 25 to 30 percent of the population.

MOBILITY CHARACTERISTICS
VEHICLE AVAILABILITY
Rates of household car ownership in Daly City COCs are significantly less than in San Mateo County as a whole. As illustrated in Figures 9 and 10, four times the number of households in the study area, as compared to the county, are without a private vehicle. The percentage of households with two vehicles is also lower, at 60 percent compared to 79 percent countywide. In addition, there are far more households with just one vehicle in the study area than there are in the county.
Figure 11 shows households with no vehicle available by census tract for the study area. The northwest and central COCs have some of the highest concentrations of households without vehicles. The northeast COC has the lowest percentage of households with no vehicles, between 3 to 5 percent. This is similar to countywide vehicle availability.

TRAVEL PATTERNS
Commute Mode
Commute mode in the study area varies considerably from San Mateo County, as shown in Table 2. More than double the population in the study area takes public transportation to work compared to the county population, with 23 percent of residents in the Daly City CBTP taking transit versus 10 percent of county residents. Furthermore, fewer residents in the study area drive alone to work than residents in the county (56 percent compared to 69 percent), but slightly more residents in the study area carpool (13 percent compared to 10 percent). The northwest COC has the highest number of residents commuting without a car, with approximately 30 percent taking public transit and 9 percent walking. The southern and northeast COCs have the lowest rate of public transportation use (about 18 percent each), but the southern COC has a slightly higher incidence of walking and working from home than the eastern COC.

Commute Travel Time
Commuters in the Daly City CBTP study area do not typica lly commute more than 30 minutes each way, on average. As shown in Figure 12, three of the four COCs have an average commute time between 28 and 32 minutes. The southwest tract has a slightly lower average commute time, ranging from 25 to 27 minutes to work. The study area average of a 29.5-minute commute is close to the countywide average of
28.2 minutes.

EXISTING TRANSPORTATION SERVICES
The following sections describe existing mobility services and infrastructure in the study area and summarizes gaps in the transportation network, as identified in relevant countywide and local plans.
There are multiple transit options in the Daly City study area. The area is served by bus and rail systems managed by numerous agencies. Some transit options serve Daly City COCs directly, others serve the larger CBTP study area.
The existing transportation network in the Daly City CBTP study area is illustrated in Figure 13.
RAIL LINES (BART, CALTRAIN)
BART operates seven routes connecting four counties: Contra Costa, Alameda, San Francisco, and San Mateo, with service extending to Antioch, Richmond, Dublin/Pleasanton, Warm Springs/South Fremont, and Millbrae. Regional rail service in the study area is provided by the Richmond-Millbrae, AntiochMillbrae, Daly City-Dublin/Pleasanton and Daly City-Warm Springs/South Fremont BART lines. As shown in Figure 13, there are two BART Stations in the study area. The Daly City BART Station is located just south of the San Francisco County line and the Colma BART Station is located within the central COC. The Bayshore Caltrain station is located at the far northeastern portion of the study area, east of the Bayshore COC. Caltrain provides regional connectivity from Downtown San Francisco, through San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties to the City of Gilroy.

BUS ROUTES
As shown on Figure 13 and listed in Table 3, below, the CBTP study area is served primarily by bus routes managed by the San Mateo County Transit District (SamTrans). Two San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (MUNI) routes also serve the northern portion of the study area. MUNI routes are limited to service on Geneva Avenue in the northeast (Bayshore) COC and the area immediately surrounding the Daly City BART Station. The northeast COC is served by no other direct bus routes beyond this minimal MUNI service, and transit connections from this COC to the other three are lacking.

PARATRANSIT
SamTrans Redi-Wheels
The entire Daly City CBTP study area is served by SamTrans’ Redi-Wheels paratransit service, which covers the Bayside of San Mateo County and Pacifica. According to SamTrans’ San Mateo County Paratransit Rider’s Guide, eligibility for the service is based on those with disabilities who are unable to use regular, accessible fixed-route transit service. SamTrans conducts in-person evaluations to determine full RediWheels eligibility and issues a Redi-Wheels identification card to those deemed eligible.
Redi-Wheels rides are typically scheduled between one and seven days in advance, or by appointment times at medical and other facilities. Redi-Wheels riders may also schedule transfers to other transit agency routes for travel outside San Mateo County. Paratransit customers may also ride all regularly scheduled SamTrans fixed-route buses for free using their Redi-Wheels identification card.
In addition, Redi-Wheels riders who receive Supplemental Security Income, General Assistance, or MediCal may also be eligible for Redi-Wheels Lifeline, the service’s reduced fare program.
MUNI San Francisco Paratransit
MUNI’s San Francisco Paratransit program is restricted to Daly City’s northern boundary, encompassing a
0.75-mile zone surrounding MUNI routes in Daly City. As a result, it serves the northeast COC only. The program includes the following services:
SF Access. This is a pre-scheduled, shared ADA-compliant van service providing door-to-door transportation.
Paratransit Taxi. Paratransit Taxi is a non-ADA compliant ride service that utilizes authorized San Francisco taxis and ramp taxis.
Group Van. This is a pre-scheduled van service providing door-to-door transportation to groups of ADA eligible riders attending agency programs such as Adult Day Health Care and senior centers. Van Gogh Shuttle. This is a shuttle service for groups of seniors and/or people with disabilities to attend cultural events in San Francisco. Van Gogh is open to groups of at least seven (7) individuals who are either sixty-five (65) or older, disabled with a Regional Transit Connection (RTC) Discount ID Card; or registered with SF Paratransit.

BICYCLE INFRASTRUCTURE
Bicycle facilities are described as falling into one of four classes regulated by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans): Class I, Class II, Class III and Class IV. Class I multi-use paths allow bicycle and pedestrian travel in both directions on paved rights of way, completely separated from a road or highway.
Class II facilities are on-street bicycle lanes that are shared-use and allow for one-way travel in the same direction as vehicle traffic. Class II bicycle lanes are separated from vehicle lanes with striping. Class III bicycle facilities are shared-use bicycle routes that allow for vehicles and bicycles to share the right of way. Class III bicycle routes typically provide connections between other bikeways or designate preferred bicycle routes along low-stress neighborhood streets. Class IV bicycle facilities are within or adjacent to a roadway and separated from traffic by a physical barrier such as bollards, on-street parking, or planters. This design allows an exclusive right-of-way for bicycle travel.
The existing and proposed bicycle network for the study area is shown in Figure 14. The existing network includes a mix of bicycle facility types and provides some connectivity with transit.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Constraints
All bicycle routes in the study area are either Class II or III bicycle facilities, apart from the Class I route along John Daly Boulevard at the northern border of the northwest COC. Apart from this Class I route, the CBTP study area is unserved by Class I and bike facilities and dedicated Class IV bicycle infrastructure. Only the western side of the northwest COC is served by bike paths, while the northeast COC is limited to one Class II path on Geneva Boulevard and a single Class III path to the south. Limited bicycle facilities in both these COCs are constraints to access within these neighborhoods. The central COC is the most bikeaccessible tract, with a network of Class III paths running in all directions and a Class II path at the northern border. The southern COC has two Class II bike paths running north-south, including one at its eastern border. The lack of east-west connections here limit neighborhood accessibility for bicyclists.
In addition, as evident in Figure 14, currently proposed bike facilities would provide limited direct service to the COC tracts. Proposed facilities include a Class I facility to the Colma BART Station in the central COC, and a short extension of the existing Class III facility in the northwest COC.

BACKGROUND DOCUMENTS AND PLANNING STUDIES
To better understand the gaps in the CBTP study area transportation network, projects, plans and programs identified in the following policy documents were evaluated:
SamTrans Strategic Plan
San Mateo County Senior Mobility Guide
San Mateo Countywide Transportation Plan
San Mateo Countywide Transportation Plan for 2040 Follow Up: Final Action plan San Mateo County Human Services Agency (HSA) Transportation programs City of Daly City General Plan
San Mateo County Comprehensive Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan San Mateo County Shuttle Program Call for Projects
San Mateo County Transportation Plan for Low-Income Populations City of Daly City Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan
SAMTRANS STRATEGIC PLAN
The SamTrans Strategic Plan (Plan) is a blueprint for SamTrans growth and fiscal policy from 2015 through 2019. The Plan identifies three priorities: expand mobility options for customers, strengthen fiscal health, and become a more effective organization. It includes the following actions to improve service in the general CBTP study area:
Work with community partners on synergistic land use development policies that support transit investments through the Grand Boulevard Initiative.
Work with its partners on the Grand Boulevard Initiative to revitalize the El Camino Real corridor and promote transit-oriented development.
Consider implementing select El Camino Real Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) enhancements as early as 2017.
El Camino Real intersects the central COC, and therefore Issues and improvements to the right-of-way could impact that portion of the CBTP study area. The Strategic Plan also documented early results of the SamTrans Service Plan, which suggest that there is a demand for increased route frequency in the study

area. Over the course of one year, weekday ridership increased by 13 percent on Route ERC and by 12 percent on Route 120, both of which serve the study area.
SAN MATEO COUNTY SENIOR MOBILITY GUIDE
The Senior Mobility Guide provides information to help San Mateo County residents remain mobile as they age. It outlines a series of programs provided through a range of agencies in the county, including:
Bayshore/Brisbane Senior Shuttle: This ride-request service operates during the midday and connects to the Bayshore Caltrain Station. Passengers may call to request a ride within the service area.
American Cancer Society – Road to Recovery: A program staffed by volunteer drivers who pick up cancer patients at their homes and take them to anything cancer-related, including doctor’s appointments, radiation treatments, and chemotherapy.
Seton Medical Center (Seton BART Shuttle): This hospital offers limited transportation for patients from Daly City BART to Seton Medical Center.
Go-Go Grandparent: This nationwide service offers rides 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to all.
Vehicles can transport folding wheelchairs and passengers who are transferable, and fares are quoted based on distance and time traveled.
Serra Yellow Cab: This program offers dispatch service to/from Daly City, Colma, Brisbane, Pacifica, Broadmoor, Millbrae, Burlingame, Hillsborough, Foster City, Belmont, San Carlos, Redwood City and SFO.
SilverRide: This TNC service is specifically designed to meet the transportation needs of older adults and people with ambulatory or other limitations.
SamTrans Redi-Wheels: This paratransit service is available for people whose disabilities or health conditions prevent them from using the bus.
SAN MATEO COUNTYWIDE TRANSPORTATION PLAN FOR 2040
The San Mateo Countywide Transportation Plan for 2040 (SMCTP 2040) is a long-range, comprehensive transportation planning document that promotes compatibility among all transportation plans and programs within the county. The SMCTP 2040 outlines transportation issues associated with countywide growth and establishes overall strategies and programs to overcome the challenges.
The SMCTP 2040 includes a list of Proposed Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) Projects comprised of longer-term improvements encouraged by the MTC’s twenty-year RTP. Some are located, or indicate potential transportation gaps, in the current study area. These include:
Mission Street/El Camino Real as part of Grand Boulevard Initiative. Provide overcrossing at I-280/John Daly Boulevard, a project that could benefit the northwest COC directly.

SAN MATEO COUNTYWIDE TRANSPORTATION PLAN FOR 2040 FOLLOW UP: FINAL ACTION PLAN
The SMCTP 2040 Follow-Up Plan (Final Action Plan) was developed by a multi-agency Working Group to ensure the that goals, projects and programs in SMCTP 2040 would be implemented appropriately. The Final Action Plan:
Establishes regional and local roles & responsibilities; Assesses the effectiveness of performance measures in SMCTP 2040 and identifies accountability measures to ensure the Action Plan is reviewed and updated as needed; Incudes recommendations for effective community outreach and equitable planning; and Summarizes existing and potential funding sources on the local, state and federal level.
The Final Action Plan prioritizes funding decisions that consider equity, and stresses that the results of County CBTPs should be used to inform the development of the next SMCTP update.
SAN MATEO COUNTY HUMAN SERVICES AGENCY TRANSPORTATION
PROGRAMS
The County of San Mateo’s Human Services Agency (HSA) provides services that vary from public assistance programs for the homeless to child protective services. HSA also implements the following transportation assistance programs, each of which demonstrates a gap in mobility options for challenged populations.
Service Connect: This program provides a range of services aimed at supporting former inmates as they re-enter the community, including emergency housing, transportation vouchers, and other basic needs assistance.
Health Plan of San Mateo (HPSM): HPSM provides a managed care insurance plan for people with Medi-Cal Coverage or through the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. One benefit includes the Nonmedical Transportation (NMT) service, which provides rides to HPSM members to outpatient health care services throughout the county. This program is provided through the American Logistics Company, which provides the free ride to participating members. Daly City Community Service Center: This facility provides emergency safety net assistance, including emergency transportation, to those deemed eligible by a community caseworker. Subsidized SamTrans Tickets: The HSA purchases $1 million in tickets and bus passes annually from SamTrans to serve low-income individuals, as well as passes for youth, child welfare cases, and those on juvenile probation.

SAN MATEO COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN
PLAN
C/CAG’s 2011 Comprehensive Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan (CBPP) recommends bikeways and Pedestrian Focus Areas—defined as areas of high pedestrian demand where pedestrian improvements of countywide significance can be located—to close gaps in the bicycle and pedestrian network. Multiple Pedestrian Focus Areas are in the CBTP study area.
Pedestrian Focus Areas are prioritized for funding through the CBPP, and the CBPP recommends relevant project and design improvements such as:
Downtown Area Improvements: Sidewalks, walking pathways and crossing improvements. El Camino Real Corridor Improvements: Walking pathways and crossing improvements, including Grand Boulevard Initiative projects.
Major Barrier Crossings: Bicyclist and pedestrian crossings of major transportation barriers, including freeway crossings; over/under crossing projects and major arterial crossings; intersection crossing/signalization improvements.
Safe Routes to School: Walking pathways, sidewalks and intersection improvements near K-12 schools designed to encourage and enable school children to safely walk, bicycle, carpool, and utilize transit to get to school.
Safe Routes to Transit: Sidewalks and pedestrian intersection improvements within ½ mile of a Caltrain station or BART station. Sidewalks and pedestrian intersection improvements within ¼ mile of a major bus line.
Access to County/Regional Activity Centers: Sidewalks and pedestrian intersection improvements connecting to activity centers of county or regional significance.
SAN MATEO COUNTY SHUTTLE PROGRAM CALL FOR PROJECTS
The San Mateo County Transportation Authority and C/CAG initiated a joint call for projects in late 2017 to provide funding for the operation of local shuttle services. Eligible projects must serve county residents and employees and provide access to regional transit and/or meet local mobility needs. The scoring system includes the following “Project Need” criteria in order to ensure that projects serve transitchallenged communities:

The current call for projects deadline is February 21, 2020.1
SAN MATEO COUNTY TRANSPORTATION PLAN FOR LOW-INCOME
POPULATIONS
The objective of the 2012 Countywide Transportation Plan for Low-Income Populations is to fulfill transportation needs of disadvantaged residents in the county. This Plan outlines the following barriers to project implementation based on analyses of previous planning efforts, including the 2008 Bayshore CBTP:
Lack of appropriate sustainable and stable funding sources. The absence of a process to promote implementation of projects. Projects that require unusual, complex, or difficult partnerships. Projects that require a degree of administrative resources beyond that of sponsoring agencies.
A series of general transportation improvement efforts was developed based on a community outreach process. The following impact the study area directly:
Add more bus shelters in Daly City.
Improve SamTrans connections and service, especially evening services along major arterials. Improve connections and increase service to destinations important to low-income populations. Improve crosswalk safety along John Daly Boulevard in Daly City. Employ a full-time crossing guard at Mission Street and San Pedro Road in Daly City.
CITY OF DALY CITY GENERAL PLAN
The City of Daly City updated its Circulation Element as part of the General Plan Update in 2013. The Circulation Element identifies policies to ensure that adequate transportation facilities are maintained through 2030, to invest in facilities that complement land uses, and to provide a transportation system with a range of choices. In Daly City, topics given special attention include traffic improvements, public transit, bicycle facilities, and mitigation strategies for impacts from individual developments.

Task CE-16.6: Work with BART on providing safe pedestrian access to and from the Daly City BART Station that utilizes existing street level crossings on John Daly Boulevard and maximizes either existing or future grade separated crossing(s) at this location.
DALY CITY BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN PLAN
The Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan (BPP) for the City of Daly City was adopted in 2013 to define the future bicycle network and improve the network’s safety and efficiency. The BPP identifies the City’s top five priorities to achieve its objectives, four of which highlight mobility challenges within or adjacent to the study area:
Priority One: John Daly Boulevard. Provide signing and pavement markings designating a Class III bikeway between Sheffield Drive and Mission Street. The bikeway would connect to an existing Class I bike path.
Priority Three: Geneva Avenue. Provide signing and pavement marking designating a Class III lanes between Santos Street and Bayshore Boulevard. Once completed the bike lanes would close the gap between the existing bike lanes on Geneva Avenue (west of Santos Street) and on Bayshore Boulevard.
Priority Four: Junipero Serra Boulevard. Provide signing and pavement markings designating a Class III bikeway between the City Limit and John Daly Boulevard. The bikeway would connect to existing Class II bike lanes in Colma. Once completed, the bikeway would provide a north-south route between Colma and Dal City BART stations.
Priority Five: John Daly Boulevard and Skyline Boulevard Intersection. Construct pathway from North Mayfair Avenue to the northeast corner of John Daly Boulevard/Skyline Boulevard. Construct sidewalk on the north side of John Daly Boulevard between Eastgate Drive and Skyline Boulevard.

DALY CITY VISION ZERO ACTION PLAN
In 2018, Daly City received a grant from the Federal Highway Administration to develop a Vision Zero Action Plan to eliminate traffic deaths in Daly City, the first such plan in San Mateo County. The Action Plan, which is expected to be adopted in 2020, uses a data- and community-driven process to establish a local course of traffic safety in the city. It includes a series of roadway safety strategies and countermeasures, as well as a comprehensive Safety Plan and evaluation strategy.
The Vision Zero Action Plan represents Daly City’s prioritization of safe mobility for all transportation modes and groups. It will benefit the entire CBTP study area and highlight existing transportation liabilities and solutions.
2008 CBTP Implementation Status
As noted in the introduction to this document, the last update to a CBTP in the Daly City area was the 2008 Bayshore CBTP, which included a study area composed of the northeast COC in the current CBTP study area. The 2008 CBTP recommended 14 projects, programs and plans categorized by implementation timeline, including Short-Term, Short- to Mid-Term, Mid-Term and Long-Term efforts. Table 4 tallies each of these projects and plans by the degree to which they have been implemented. It also includes information regarding factors that influenced the success or failure of each.
As shown in Table 4, two of the 14 CBTP recommendations have been fully implemented, a success rate of about 14 percent. Six of the recommendations have not been implemented and 6 have been partially implemented, a rate of about 43 percent each.

Based on the demographic and transportation analysis outlined in this assessment, the study area has underserved populations when compared to San Mateo County overall. Resources and services are less accessible for residents in these neighborhoods which may be based on the key findings identified below. COCs with higher rates of seniors also had higher rates of people with disabilities. While disabilities can occur at any age, physical and sensory disabilities are more common later in life. Therefore, services provided for the disabled may also need to be catered towards senior needs as well. While the rate of commutes by car, truck, or van is lower in the study area than the county, the rate of carpoolers is higher. This may be partially attributed to the lower vehicle availability in the study area, encouraging people without vehicles to seek out a driver for carpooling. However, the northwest COC has both the lowest rate of carpools and lowest rate of vehicle availability. This indicates that in pockets with significantly high rates of households without cars, residents may have difficulties finding a vehicle owner to carpool with. Programs that match carpool drivers with riders may alleviate this gap in carpooling ability.
The lowest transit rate use is found in the northeast COC which may be partially attributed to the few transit stops mapped within that neighborhood in comparison to the other COCs in the study area. Focusing on increasing transit stops within walking distance of homes in this neighborhood may improve and expand commute options for residents in that COC. The central and northwest COC have the highest percentage of households with no vehicles. This may be partially attributed to their nearby proximity to the Colma and Daly City BART stations, respectively.
The Bayshore (northeast) COC is the only COC included in the 2008 CBTP. The factors that define a COC and other demographic challenges still frustrate equitable transportation here. This COC has the highest rate of population in poverty across the study area, as well as one of the highest rates of seniors and limited English-speaking households. Residents of this COC also exhibit one the lowest rates of transit use. The success rate of recommendations from the 2008 Bayshore CBTP should be assessed carefully in the development of new projects and programs. Traffic safety is a historic problem and current focus in Daly City. As noted above, Daly City is the first city in San Mateo County to develop a Vision Zero Action Plan. The outreach, data and solutions resulting from this effort may support recommendations targeting safe mobility among COC populations.
MUNI services, including regular fixed-route buses and multiple paratransit programs, are limited in the Daly City COCs. Connectivity between existing transit service in Daly City and MUNI programs should be explored.
Analysis of 2008 CBTP recommendations and their following success revealed trends for consideration when developing updated programs and policies in this study area. The trends are discussed below.

Technological Advancements Rendering Programs Obsolete.
Online tools and engagement have become more accessible as smartphones have become ubiquitous. Recommendations should anticipate emerging and evolving technologies by devising programs and policies that are flexible and applicable in the fickle technological landscape of today. Political Constraints with Multi-Agency Coordination.
When the implementation of a program or policy relies on coordination across multiple jurisdictions or agencies, the complex planning and communication needed to implement the program becomes a barrier for program success. Creating clear, singular responsible parties reduces coordination and agreement necessary to carry out goals and objectives of the CBTP. Recommendations should minimize the responsible parties to optimize policy and program success. Unjustified or Unfounded Recommendations.
Recommendations in the CBTP should respond directly to quantitative data, documented feedback trends and previously identified transportation gaps. Strategies based on perceptions, assumptions and/or ill-defined conditions are more likely to suffer from unspecified action plans and allocation of responsibility, resulting in low funding potential.
Unidentified Funding/Responsible Agency to Research Funding.
When programs fail to identify a secured funding source, the first challenge to implementation becomes identifying a funding source. Adding an extra step of attempting to obtain funding increases the project timeline and decreases the likelihood of timely and effective program implementation. Furthermore, some programs may identify a potential funding source but fail to indicate a party to pursue and obtain the funding. A lack of responsible agency leaves the policy without actionable next steps to mobilize implementation. Agency staff may extend considerable resources searching for funds in the form of appropriate grant opportunities and other options. All recommendations should identify a clear, available funding source and assign an agency responsible for the pursuit and preservation of the funds for the project.

Re: Permit for Expressive Activity at BART Stations
Greetings,
Pursuant to the Rules of the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District Pertaining to Use of District Facilities for Expressive Activities (Rules), attached and incorporated by reference, and the information provided in your Permit Application, this letter serves as your Permit to engage in Free Speech expressive activity described as Community Outreach at the following BART station(s) on these dates and times:
Colma BART Station(s), 2/8, 2022; 9am-9pm
Expressive activity is allowed only in the “Free Area” of BART stations (where access is available to the general public) and prohibited in the “Paid Area” of BART stations (where access is available only to ticketed passengers), including BART cars and trains and BART Station platforms including BART to Oakland International Airport platforms and trains.
This permit is not a concessions permit to sell goods, merchandise or services at BART stations. BART parking is for round trip BART riders only.
You are required to have this permit on your person or with your group when engaging in your activity. At the request of a BART Station Agent, BART Transportation Supervisor, Office of External Affairs staff member or BART Police Officer, you must produce this Permit. Please work with the BART Station Agent or BART Transportation Supervisor to determine the exact location within the “free area” of the station for your activity.
You shall not (1) interfere with the smooth flow of passengers through entrances or exits or other areas of BART stations; (2) interfere with the access onto or off of an escalator, stairway or elevator; (3) interfere with access to or from any fare gate, ticket or automatic fare collection machine; (4) interfere with any BART authorized commercial activity or concession; (5) interfere with BART employees’ conduct of their business; (6) interfere with access to any fire safety system component, public telephone, information board or news vending machine or kiosk; (7) post or affix to BART property or facilities, any signs, leaflets, posters, flyers, pamphlets, brochures and written, pictorial or graphic material of any kind, or structures, banners and any other paraphernalia; 8) use a sound amplification device (Penal Code section 640);(9) disturb the peace (Penal Code section 415), or disturb others by engaging in boisterous or unruly behavior (Penal Code section 640); (10) willfully block the free movement of another person (Penal Code section 640); or (11) violate any applicable law including but not limited to Penal Code section 602.7 prohibiting the sale of goods, merchandise or services without written consent of BART. Any prohibited conduct mentioned above shall be sufficient cause for cancellation of the permit by BART.
You shall clean-up the area where your activity was conducted and remove all your written materials and property which shall not be left behind or stored at BART stations.
This Permit is not transferable and shall not be assigned, and any attempt to do so shall be void.
