BACKGROUND:
On September 10, 2024, the City of Goleta ( City) was awarded grant funding for Supplemental Planning and Demonstration Activities totaling $364,000 from the United States Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant funds. The SS4A grant requires a 20 percent local (non-Federal) match, totaling $91,000 for this award. The City executed the SS4A grant agreement with FHWA on February 24, 2026, following the United States Department of Transportation (DOT) restructuring process.
On February 20, 2024, the City Council approved Resolution No. 24-07, adopting a Vision Zero approach in Goleta and making Goleta a Vision Zero City. The SS4A grant will support implementation of this Council -approved approach through supplemental planning, public outreach, and demonstration activities. The Vision Zero Action Plan (Project) will be a comprehensive planning initiative that combines public outreach, supplemental planning efforts, and demonstration activities to advance the City 's Vision Zero approach to transportation safety. Vision Zero is founded on the principle that serious injury and fatal traffic collisions are preventable, and that no loss of life or serious injury on the transportation system is acceptable.
1 Meeting Date: June 2, 2026
On January 9, 2025, Public Works staff published a Request for Proposals (RFP) on PlanetBids for Professional Services for the Vision Zero Action Plan. The RFP was advertised in the Santa Barbara Independent on January 9, 2025, and January 16, 2025.
The City received a total of three proposals from Kimley -Horn and Associates , TDG Engineering, Inc., and Minagar and Associates. The Public Works review team reviewed the proposals using the ranking criteria outlined in the City-issued RFP. TDG Engineering Inc. was selected as the highest -ranked proposer based on the evaluation criteria established in the RFP.
DISCUSSION:
The City has a Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Project to prepare and implement the Vision Zero Plan (CIP No. 9086). This Project is the first phase of the Vision Zero Plan .
This Project’s primary scope of work will include the development of the following:
Vision Zero Safety Dashboard: A proposed Public Safety Dashboard to track, monitor, and display safety projects within the City. This tool will have two components: an internal system for inter-departmental tracking and evaluation of safety projects, and an external platform to share safety outcomes and progress towards Vision Zero with the public.
Vision Zero Public Safety Campaign: A campaign aimed at raising community awareness regarding existing traffic safety issues and the collective effort required to improve road safety for all users.
Neighborhood Traffic Calming Toolkit and Implementation Strategy: A guide for the City to build upon existing traffic calming efforts to serve as a resource when implementing new and effective safety measures and strategies.
Safe Routes to School Program: A program that focuses on underserved communities in Goleta, aiming to enhance school connectivity and create safer non- motorized transportation options for students commuting from Old Town Goleta to schools north of US 101.
FISCAL IMPACTS:
The Project is funded by the SS4A grant funds with a required $91,000 local (non-Federal) match. Table 1 details the project cost estimates.

Additionally, Toole Design will facilitate a kickoff call to discuss project objectives, data collection plans, go over our Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) procedures, and key project milestones, ensuring a rigorous QA/QC process is applied to all deliverables.
TASK 1: VISION ZERO PUBLIC SAFETY DASHBOARD
TASK 1.1: DATA REVIEW AND DATA FRAMEWORK
Dat
a Collection and Assessment
Toole Design will work closely with the City of Goleta and other agencies to gather the most relevant and up-to-date data from across the City. We anticipate the dataset will include police-reported crash data, community needs and concerns, and contextual data such as road network information and demographic data. Incorporating feedback from agency staff and other stakeholders will be important at this stage to ensure that no datasets are overlooked.
As
Toole Design receives applicable datasets, we will review them for their completeness and assess their applicability to the data dashboard. We will work with agency staff and data providers to identify sensitive data and develop methods to securely share this data or apply data scrubbing so it can be more widely shared. Toole Design will work with the City of Goleta to identify a consistent set of crash data that will report aggregate traffic-related injury and fatality totals.
Dat
a Framework
Based on the results of the data collection and assessment, we will develop a data framework that provides the following details about the data:
• Type of dataset (e.g., crash/injury, contextual, public feedback) • Observed gaps in data
Docusign Envelope ID: EFB6B587-7417-8AE2-802A-5F61FF3CE328 18 City of Goleta
Public Works Department and TDG Engineering, Inc.
• Methods for incorporating into data dashboard, if relevant • Whether a data sharing agreement may be required
• Methods to identify sensitive data and/or scrub received data • Overlap with other datasets
The data framework will identify any gaps that limit the development of the public safety dashboard. We will work with the City to identify critical planning needs but anticipate that we will incorporate planning products from the BPMP and the Traffic Safety Study. These can include previously completed crash analyses and identified potential safety countermeasures.
TASK 1.2: DESIGN DATA DASHBOARD
Developing a User Interface and Dashboard Platform
Toole Design will work with City staff to identify technical requirements and an appropriate technology for the user interface. An effective interface will be simple and provide users control over the data that they see. The user interface will provide the user with essential information and instructions and will be intuitive to use.
We have extensive experience working with HTML, JavaScript, CSS, Tableau, and Bootstrap, and can tailor the solutions to the project needs. We will focus our technology recommendations on developing a dashboard that offers a user- friendly front-end experience with minimal ongoing maintenance needed by the City. We propose that the end-product includes interactive charts (e.g., using Chart.js or d3.js) in addition to a mapping interface (based on either leaflet. js or the ArcGIS JavaScript API).
Internal Facing Platform
The internal facing platform will be developed to allow City staff of multiple departments to track and evaluate safety projects to help work towards Vision Zero. This platform will allow users to see and add previous and future safety projects to the dashboard, track their progress, and evaluate their impact. The impact evaluation will be done through a review of crash data before and after the project was completed. The development of the internal facing platform will leverage the City’s existing software platforms (such as Microsoft Teams, PowerBI, and Sharepoint), which will allow users to collaborate on projects and document management.
Public Facing Platform
For the public-facing platform, we propose developing an interactive website with a storytelling section that first presents high-level data in a simple and concise format and explains the Safe System Approach. Then, users will have an opportunity to explore the dashboard and understand safety data in more depth with elements such as:
Docusign Envelope ID: EFB6B587-7417-8AE2-802A-5F61FF3CE328 19 City of Goleta
Public Works Department and TDG Engineering, Inc.
1. Cross-Tabulations – The ability to generate cross-tabulations of multiple variables.
2. Spatial Understanding – The ability to spatially understand the data by various groupings, such as disadvantaged communities, jurisdictional boundaries, congressional districts, etc.
3. Filters – The ability to filter the dataset by time of day, time of year, injury type, speed limits, etc.
4. Interactive Charts – The ability to view the query results through a series of interactive charts.
5. Reports – The ability to generate simple reports.
Developing a Technical Architecture
Toole Design will develop the backend architecture. We have experience working with ArcGIS Online and a combination of PostgreSQL and Geoserver programs.
Toole Design will work with City staff to identify the most suitable backend solution for the dashboard. Wherever possible, we will suggest automating data interfaces through API calls to minimize the need for manual data loads. For continuous data streams, this will allow the dashboard to display up-to-date information. For data that is not available through an API, we recommend an annual update frequency to enable the dashboard to display progress on pursuing Vision Zero Strategies.
TASK 1.3: DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT DATA DASHBOARD
Developing the Data Dashboard
Toole Design will develop both the internal-facing and public-facing sections of the public safety dashboard as outlined in Task 1.2. We will work with City staff to complete thorough quality assurance testing on the dashboard. Testing will include developing test cases and conducting the testing in various environments such as different browsers, different monitor sizes, and different operating systems. Any issues identified in the testing process will be addressed, and any feedback received from City staff or stakeholders will be incorporated into the final product.
Developing Technical Documentation and Training
Toole Design will develop technical documentation for the data dashboard, including an initial review of documentation needed and how agency staff will use the dashboard. A user-training session for key agency staff maintaining the dashboard, a technical maintenance plan, and end-user documentation will be a part of this task.
TASK 1 DELIVERABLES:
• Data request and gathering memo
• Draft and final data framework
Docusign Envelope ID: EFB6B587-7417-8AE2-802A-5F61FF3CE328 20 City of Goleta
Public Works Department and TDG Engineering, Inc.
• Prototype of the internal facing data platform and public facing data platform
• Draft and final public safety dashboard, including user documentation and quality assurance testing
• Staff training, including City IT and GIS staff, and a technical maintenance plan
TASK 2: VISION ZERO PUBLIC SAFETY CAMPAIGN
TASK 2.1: RESEARCH TRAFFIC SAFETY ISSUES AND MEASURES
Toole Design will review previous plans and projects to understand what progress the City of Goleta has made towards its Vision Zero goal. We will identify what has worked well and what could be improved in terms of education, engagement, and enforcement in Goleta. We’ll also draw from our experience with Vision Zero campaigns nationwide to identify and summarize best practices from similar municipalities.
TASK 2.2: DEFINE CAMPAIGN GOALS, OBJECTIVES, AND STRATEGIES
Toole Design will work with City staff and key stakeholders to define the goals of the Vision Zero program and public Safety Campaign. From these goals we can develop concrete objectives and strategies to guide the campaign and ways to measure success following the campaign’s conclusion. Toole Design will summarize these goals, objectives, and strategies in a memorandum.
TASK 2.3: DEVELOP CAMPAIGN FRAMEWORK, THEMES, MESSAGING,
AND VISUALS
Defining the Message and Tone
Toole Design and Katherine Padilla Associates develop cohesive, compelling behavior change campaigns throughout the country. We have found people shift their behavior and commit to safety when the campaign:
• Is rooted in real-world safety data and trends
• Speaks to community values and priorities, and
• Is customized for different demographic groups or user types.
We will launch Task 2.3 with a presentation to City staff of best practices and success stories from similar communities. City staff will review the suite of examples and select campaign elements that will resonate with Goleta residents.
We will work with City staff to develop messaging that will effectively reach appropriate target audiences in Goleta. Target groups may include residents who drive, bicycle, walk, and take transit in Goleta; visitors that drive to, and through, Goleta to reach retail and services; parents, youth, and/or seniors; UCSB students; and Spanish speakers. Messages will be woven into a logical storyline, Docusign Envelope ID: EFB6B587-7417-8AE2-802A-5F61FF3CE328 21 City of Goleta
Public Works Department and TDG Engineering, Inc.
so the campaign remains new and interesting over the course of its life. The Toole Design Team will develop a memo that summarizes the key messages and data to review with Goleta staff to confirm accuracy and relevance.
Developing the Visuals
The Toole Design Team will integrate City feedback and community input into a final set of Vision Zero messages. We will craft a branding toolkit that communicates these messages visually. The toolkit will include a campaign name, logo, tagline, and visual palette (colors, iconography, infographics, and/or photographs). The Toole Design Team will translate all materials into Spanish.
The branding toolkit will serve as the foundation for the engagement effort, as well as designed for long-term City use. We will provide the City will all native graphic files so they can be customized, refined, and updated for years to come.
A Multi-Platform Outreach Strategy
Once the key message and branding elements are established, the Toole Design Team will work closely with the City to prepare a detailed outreach strategy. We will work with City staff to select a set of techniques that are most likely to result in behavioral change, within the time and budget constraints. We will develop a strategy outlining a detailed budget, timeline, key events and locations, and a list of key stakeholders.
We will also develop evaluation metrics for the outreach campaign. Given the challenges of evaluating behavior change in response to safety messaging, we will focus on evaluating and documenting the extent of outreach conducted, and level of responsiveness received. We will also evaluate how well the program reaches vulnerable roadway users such as students, seniors, and community members that typically do not participate. Example metrics may include:
• Number of webpage visits and level of engagement with social media content
• Number of community members spoken to during pop-up events • Number of outreach flyers, posters, signs, fact sheets, or other collateral distributed
• Qualitative feedback on campaign content and messaging from key community leaders
TASK 2.4: IMPLEMENT VISION ZERO PUBLIC SAFETY CAMPAIGN
The Toole Design Team will work with City staff to implement the following Vision Zero campaign strategies:
Online Outreach
• A webpage on the City’s website that hosts campaign resources and safety planning documents.
Docusign Envelope ID: EFB6B587-7417-8AE2-802A-5F61FF3CE328 22 City of Goleta
Public Works Department and TDG Engineering, Inc.
• A social media campaign toolkit for Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), and Instagram that includes copy, graphics, and a campaign calendar. • Up to three short (30 seconds to one minute) Vision Zero safety videos.
Our in-house production provides different types of videos and animation, depending on the goals and audience. We will work with the City to determine the best use of project resources and finalize the number and format of videos.
Reaching Drivers with Yard Signs
The emphasis areas of aggressive and distracted driving highlighted in the Traffic Safety Study suggest there is a critical need to affect behavioral change among drivers. Many safety campaigns focus heavily on vulnerable users, which ignores drivers as key decision-makers. As part of a driver-focused outreach strategy, the Toole Design Team will design a suite of materials to communicate with drivers while they are in their cars. These materials will consist of up to 100 yard signs to be distributed along key areas, such as near schools, activity centers, and near areas with high concentrations of crashes. The specific locations are to be determined in collaboration with City staff.
Workshop Events (up to three)
We propose holding three workshops in the community. The first workshop will aim to understand the community’s needs and priorities and gauge receptiveness to certain messaging. The second workshop will be an opportunity to present initial concepts on messaging, branding, and focus of the campaign. The third workshop will be where the project team shares the finalized campaign messaging and ask the community to spread the word about the public safety campaign. Based on previous experience in similar communities, we are recommending two in-person workshops, and one virtual workshop. This will ensure that the maximum number of community members can attend at least one workshop, regardless of location or time availability. The Toole Design Team has Spanish-speaking staff members and will aim for a bilingual workshop format.
Campaign Summary Memorandum
After the campaign has concluded, the Toole Design Team will summarize the process, results and any lessons learned into a campaign summary memorandum. The memorandum will also identify recommendations for ongoing engagement, any improvements to the campaign, and future opportunities for engagement with the community on Vision Zero and public safety.
TASK 2 DELIVERABLES:
• Memorandum summarizing traffic safety issues and past efforts in Goleta, and best practices
• Memorandum summarizing campaign goals, objectives, and strategies • Draft and final messaging memorandum, including campaign name, logo, tagline, and graphics

TASK 3: NEIGHBORHOOD TRAFFIC CALMING TOOLKIT AND
IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY
TASK 3.1: DATA COLLECTION AND RESEARCH TRAFFIC CALMING
MEASURES
Review Current City Efforts
Toole Design will meet with City engineering staff to understand where neighborhood traffic calming measures have been used in the past and how effective they have been. We will review crash data from before and after these neighborhood traffic calming measures have been implemented to understand their impact. We will also talk with City staff from different departments to gauge how these traffic calming measures have been used and how aware City staff and Goleta residents are of neighborhood traffic calming measures.
Review Existing Neighborhood Traffic Calming Measures
Toole Design will perform a literature and best practices review of neighborhood traffic calming measures. We will review regional, state, and federal guidelines on neighborhood traffic calming to obtain an understanding of which traffic calming measures to consider and how they can be best implemented.
We will perform a peer review of other similar municipalities to understand how other agencies have implemented traffic calming toolkits. We will identify success stories and toolkits that can be improved upon for this program.
TASK 3.2: IDENTIFY APPROPRIATE TRAFFIC CALMING MEASURES
The Toole Design Team and City staff will identify a list of neighborhood traffic calming measures appropriate for use in Goleta, informed by known issues, previous resident feedback, and best practices. We will then identify detailed considerations for these measures, including level of effort, cost, engineering needs, as well as which roadways the measures are appropriate for (based on volumes, number of lanes, nearby land uses, etc.)
Docusign Envelope ID: EFB6B587-7417-8AE2-802A-5F61FF3CE328 24 City of Goleta
Public Works Department and TDG Engineering, Inc.
The appropriate traffic calming measures will be assigned to one of two tiers. The first tier will be lower-cost, lower-effort projects that can be implemented cheaply and quickly. These will be measures that can easily respond to community concerns. The second tier will be measures that require additional study, effort, and potential community outreach to implement.
TASK 3.3: DEVELOP TRAFFIC CALMING PROCESS FRAMEWORK AND
IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY
Toole Design will develop a Neighborhood Traffic Calming Process framework to help the City understand how to implement traffic calming measures and how to respond to community requests for traffic calming.
The traffic calming process framework will identify the entire process from project initiation (either from City staff or community request) until project evaluation and close out. The framework will identify which input data is needed, how to identify the appropriate project and tier of project, how to implement the project, how to keep the public informed, and how to evaluate the project. This framework will be represented as a decision tree that City staff can follow throughout the traffic calming process. Input data and considerations into the traffic calming process will be data such as traffic, crash data, neighborhood demographics, proximity to schools and parks, and transportation links.
The evaluation of traffic calming measures is important to the success of the toolkit and a process for measuring and assessing the impacts of traffic calming measures will be developed for City staff to follow. Following project evaluation, the framework will guide City staff to either consider additional traffic calming measures or move focus to other areas.
The framework will include a process for community members to both request neighborhood traffic calming measures on their local streets and to provide input on proposed traffic calming measures. This will include a neighborhood traffic calming request form and a detailed process for neighborhood input.
The draft traffic calming process framework will be presented to City staff for input and comment, from which a final product will be developed.
TASK 3.4: DEVELOP NEIGHBORHOOD TRAFFIC CALMING TOOLKIT
Based on the deliverables developed for the previous tasks, we will develop a neighborhood traffic calming toolkit. This toolkit will outline the appropriate traffic calming measures, how to determine which to use, how to implement, how to respond to community input, and how to evaluate the impact of the traffic calming measure. The decision tree developed in Task 3.3 will be a fundamental aspect of the traffic calming toolkit. We will present draft neighborhood traffic calming toolkit to City staff for input and comment and develop a final product.
Docusign Envelope ID: EFB6B587-7417-8AE2-802A-5F61FF3CE328 25 City of Goleta

TASK 3 DELIVERABLES:
• Memorandum reviewing current city traffic calming efforts and summarizing literature, best practices, and peer review of traffic calming toolkits and measures
• Draft and final list of appropriate traffic calming measures • Draft and final traffic calming process framework
• Draft and final neighborhood traffic calming toolkit
TASK 4: SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL PROGRAM
TASK 4.1: DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS
Preliminary Data Collection and Analysis
This subtask will serve as the foundation for the success of the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) program. Toole Design will look at each school individually (La Patera Elementary School, Kellogg Elementary School, and Goleta Valley Junior High School) and as part of an interconnected system acknowledging that the three schools are within close proximity. We will conduct an analysis of existing safety conditions using the following datasets to identify trends in collision locations, types, and severity, and to identify existing safety gaps and opportunities for improvements:
• Data from Schools or School Districts: School enrollment and hours; school attendance boundaries and anonymized student addresses if available; crossing guard locations, student and family travel behaviors and modes, mode counts if available, site improvement plans, arrival and dismissal procedures or circulation plans, qualitative input about congestion
• City Data: Transit routes and stops; roadway speeds (posted and actual), volumes, number of lanes; existing bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure and traffic controls; planned infrastructure; parks and community spaces; • Public Data: Collisions (TIMS/ SWITRS)
• Big Data: Roadways speed, modal volumes, and trip purpose from Replica
We will analyze this data and identify existing safety gaps. These gaps may include gaps in sidewalk or bicycle infrastructure, rivers, bridges, or highway underpasses.
These barriers pose challenges for students walking and biking to school and will be addressed in the SRTS program.
In this analysis task, we will also review previous plans, such as the BPMP and the Traffic Safety Study, for previously identified improvements and measures.

Public Works Department and TDG Engineering, Inc.
Field Data Collection and Analysis
Toole Design will collect up-to-date data in the field. Based on our national experience with successful SRTS program, we recommend that we coordinate and lead Field Safety Assessments, or “walk audits” at the three schools. Walk audits will be conducted in partnership with stakeholders, as identified by City and school staff.
The focus area of the walk audit, and subsequent recommendations will be up to a half-mile around each school. Walk audits will be held during the morning drop- off and/or afternoon pick-up period, which will allow us to evaluate activities and conditions during times of peak school travel demand. To facilitate the walk audits, we will undertake the following tasks:
Walk Audit Preparation
Our team will prepare a walk audit map for each school that will be provided to participants to facilitate discussion and identifying areas of concern for students walking, biking, and wheeling. The maps will include a half-mile radius around each school and will show an aerial view with labeled streets and the school site.
For La Patera Elementary and Goleta Valley Junior High, these areas may overlap. Our team will identify any potential efficiencies that come with combining the walk audits for these schools.
Pre-Walk Prep Meeting
The Toole Design Team will gather participants about 45 minutes prior to the school’s first or last bell so the Field Assessment Lead can respond to questions and describe the project purpose, provided maps and materials, and review any previously identified issues. We will encourage participants to focus on existing barriers and challenges, and to consider conditions from a child’s perspective (such as lower height, slower walking speed, and possible unfamiliarity with reading traffic control devices).
Conducting Walk Audits
Our walk audits will cover pedestrian, bicycle, and vehicular routes to the school, as well as pick-up/drop-off areas. Our observations and analysis will focus on infrastructure conditions, street crossing conditions, and traffic circulation and behavior. Special attention will be given to commutes from Old Town Goleta and those that cross US-101, as well as students traveling from various areas within Goleta. We will also focus on where connections between schools can be improved.
Post-Walk Briefings
After the audits, our Field Assessment Lead will hold a post-walk briefing to discuss the high-level findings, key observations, and initial impressions of Docusign Envelope ID: EFB6B587-7417-8AE2-802A-5F61FF3CE328 27 City of Goleta
Public Works Department and TDG Engineering, Inc.
priority issues. They will also discuss next steps and respond to participant questions.
Conduct Bicycle and Pedestrian Counts
To supplement the data collection and walk audit findings, our team will conduct strategic bicycle and pedestrian counts, at time(s) and location(s) to be determined in coordination with City staff. The count data will be folded into our recommendations. These counts will serve as a baseline to measure year-over- year walking and bicycling activity.
TASK 4.2: DEVELOP BASE MAPS
Based on the data and information gathered in Task 4.1, Toole Design will develop base maps and exhibits for each of the three schools. These products will highlight the location of the school in relation to the rest of Goleta, show vehicular and pedestrian/bicycle access, and travel conditions, such as locations of traffic congestion and locations of crossing guards. These products will also include details on school enrollment, bus routes, and transit lines to the school.
Any past site improvement plans will be highlighted on the basemap, which will help inform any recommendations going forward. Toole Design will present the draft base maps for City and stakeholder review, before updating them for final approval.
TASK 4.3: OUTREACH AND ENGAGEMENT PLAN
Our team will prioritize identifying and engaging with the stakeholders from the beginning, which will be critical to the program’s success. These stakeholders can include parents, teachers, members of the school community, and elected officials. We will leverage these relationships to build community support for this project and ongoing SRTS efforts. The Toole Design Team will work with the stakeholders and City staff to develop an outreach and engagement plan that is thoughtful, empathetic, contextually appropriate, and accessible. We will plan to solicit input from students, caregivers, and school staff about safety concerns around their schools, ideas for improvements, and their priorities.
We will design our engagement techniques to gather actionable information that will directly inform the recommendations. Our materials and techniques will be age-appropriate, accessible, and translated into Spanish. We will aim to hold both project-specific workshops, as well as pop-ups to meet the community where they are. Specific outreach and engagement strategies will be selected, and can include a social media campaign targeting schools or tailoring the public safety campaign messaging in Task 2 to be specific to safe travel around schools.
TASK 4.4: WEBPAGE
The Toole Design Team will develop text and graphics for a dedicated SRTS webpage on the City’s website. This webpage will contain materials developed Docusign Envelope ID: EFB6B587-7417-8AE2-802A-5F61FF3CE328 28 City of Goleta
Public Works Department and TDG Engineering, Inc.
as part of the program and a calendar of upcoming events. The webpage will be used to disseminate information about the project and to keep the community informed about program development progress. Toole Design will provide up to three updates to the webpage.
TASK 4.5: WORKSHOPS AND POP-UPS
Our team will conduct three school workshops, one for each school, with the goal of informing the community on the purpose and goals of the SRTS program. The workshops will be held at or near the three target schools. At these workshops we will discuss the findings of our initial data collection and ask for feedback on issues and potential solutions. Our overall goal is for the community to feel ownership and buy-in to the SRTS program at their school.
In addition to project-specific workshops, we will also conduct three pop-up workshops to meet the community where they are. The Toole Design Team will set up a table at community events, such as festivals (such as the Goleta Lemon Festival), farmers’ markets, or fairs. The Toole Design Team will prepare all presentations and outreach materials for these meetings and provide any necessary equipment.
TASK 4.6: DEVELOP SUGGESTED ROUTE MAPS
Toole Design will develop a suggested route map for each of the three schools, in English and Spanish. The suggested route maps will show the recommendation walking and biking routes to the schools for areas within a half- mile to one mile of the school. The draft route maps will be presented to City staff and stakeholders for feedback. The finalized route maps will be developed based on staff and stakeholder input. The Toole Design Team will provide digital versions for online distribution, as well as printed copies for distribution at the schools.
TASK 4.7: IDENTIFY RECOMMENDATIONS AND DEVELOP SAFE ROUTES
TO SCHOOL PLAN
Recommendations
The Toole Design Team will develop a set of recommendations for each school site. The overarching set of recommendations will be informed by client and community input. The recommendations will also be informed by previous planning efforts, such as the BPMP or the Traffic Safety Study. The recommendations will focus on the key goals of the SRTS program:
• Improving access from underserved communities in Goleta • Improving connectivity between the three schools
• Establishing safer non-motorized transportation options for students residing in Old Town Goleta
Docusign Envelope ID: EFB6B587-7417-8AE2-802A-5F61FF3CE328 29 City of Goleta
