Each month, the Finance Department prepares a report listing the investments for all separate entities under the jurisdiction of the City as identified in the City’s Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.
Portfolio Recap
Yield:

Total Portfolio Balance: $108,380,406 $116,414,795

The City’s temporary idle cash, those funds not immediately needed to pay current bills and not governed by bond indentures or bond resolutions, is invested by the City’s adopted Investment Policy. The City Council reviewed this policy regularly, with the latest policy adopted on February 13, 2018, by Resolution No. 18-06.
CC 4
10/11/22
JC
The City's cash management system is designed to accurately monitor and forecast expenditures and revenues, thus enabling the City to invest funds to the fullest extent possible within the guidelines of this Investment Policy. The City attempts to achieve the highest yield obtainable through a diversified portfolio only after meeting the criteria established for safety and liquidity in that order. The principal investment objectives of the City are:
1. Preservation of capital and protection of investment principal;
2. Maintenance of sufficient liquidity to meet anticipated cash flows;
3. Attainment of a market rate of return;
4. Diversification to avoid incurring unreasonable market risks, and;
5. Compliance with the City’s Municipal Code and with all applicable City resolutions, California statutes, and Federal regulations.
The City’s portfolio is a short-term and intermediate-term fixed-income portfolio. The maximum maturity of any investment is 5 years, with consideration of anticipated cash flow requirements and known future liabilities. The City contracts with an investment advisory service (Insight Investment) to assist in the effort to maximize the returns of the City portfolio. The City’s investments include publicly-traded Treasury notes, Treasury Bills, Federal Agency Investments, Time Deposits, and Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) under the auspices of the State Treasurer for investment. Funds invested in LAIF are available within 24 hours, and other investments are available upon maturity at full face value. These investments enable the City to meet its expenditure requirements for the next six months, as required by state law.
The City’s investment procedures are governed by Sections 53600 et. seq. of the California Government Code. Additional requirements have been placed on the City’s authorized investments by the Investment Policy (a copy is available in the Finance Department or from the City Clerk), and all investments listed on the attached report adhere to these requirements.

Approve Task Order No. 3 – Additional Authorization 1, with DMR Team, Inc., of Chatsworth, California, for services in accordance with the Multi-Year Professional Services Agreement, Service Group Category (SGC 1) – Construction Management and Inspection, for supplemental contract inspection services in the amount of $615,600.00 with a 20% contingency; and authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to sign all documents.
Fiscal Impact:
$738,720.00 (including 20% contingency); Sufficient funds are available in Account Numbers 101-4761-301 and 101-4761-308 to fund through Phase 2. A request for the remaining funding for Phase 3 and 4 will be made with the FY 2022-2023 mid-year budget adjustment and FY 2023- 2024 budget, respectively.
Background:
Race Communications, under permit number ECR22-03799, has begun the task of installing fiber optic throughout the City of Lancaster. This is a four-phase project lasting (18) eighteen months. In August of 2022, we contracted for Phase 1 of the project in an effort to augment staff and meet the demand for inspection, so as not to delay the project.
Race will cover 100% of the cost for the Contract Inspector. We are phasing services and requesting funding in phases so that we can re-evaluate project progress, ensure payment by Race for work performed within each phase, and adjust as needed to manage the City cash flow between revenue and operating expenditures.
The City is supportive of the development of a fiber-optic network that will provide businesses and residential development throughout the City with inexpensive and reliable high-speed internet. By having new internet service providers in the community, our residents have more options to select from and providers have to offer the best services and prices to retain our residents as customers.
Race has made progress in their development of a fiber network, and by adding additional manpower, they will have the needed support to complete their project in a timely manner. Race anticipates that they will complete their fiber installation by Q4 of 2023.

Subject: Update to the Safe Routes to School Master Plan Recommendation:
Adopt Resolution No. 22-52, approving the Updated Lancaster Safe Routes to School Master Plan.
Fiscal Impact:
None.
Background:
In 2017, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 17-27, approving the City of Lancaster Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Master Plan. During the process of City staff working on an Active Transportation Program Cycle 5 (2020) application for a Safe Routes to School capital improvement project, it was determined that due to significant changes to the built environment, school attendance zones, the economy, local work, travel patterns, and demographics, the City’s Safe Routes to School Master Plan needed to be updated.
In June 2021, City staff began a strategic public engagement effort supported by Redman Consulting, LLC., and Kimley-Horn, comprised of virtual walk audits for 28 elementary and middle schools, multi-lingual online and paper surveys in English and Spanish, English and Spanish social media campaigns, public outreach using City and school district electronic newsletters, consultation with a Stakeholder Advisory Team, including the involvement of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. The City also leveraged popular events sponsored through the SEE AND BE SEEN partners, such as the Tour de Luke, in order to encourage public input into the update of the SRTS Master Plan.
The results of the public engagement process revealed that community concerns about safety, vehicle speeding, crime, weather, distance, and the need for more enforcement of motorist roadway behavior were key factors in determining whether parents allowed their children to walk or roll to school. School districts, campus supervisors, and crossing guards alike noted the need for more parent volunteers to support safe active transportation trips to school. All cited sidewalk gaps and lack of buffered bike lanes as reasons not to walk, bike, skate, scoot, or roll to school.
Finally, the special chaos occurring during drop-off and pick-up periods was called out as potentially dangerous and requiring targeted attention through a collaboration between the City, all four school districts, and the school communities at each campus, to address this.
The recommendations for projects and strategies included in the 2022 update to the SRTS Master Plan are directly responsive to these community concerns, in light of City guidelines and related plans, including the adopted Local Road Safety Plan and Program (LRSP). Both the SRTS Plan and the LRSP identify the need to continue developing the bicycle and pedestrian network in the City to reduce the number of vulnerable user injuries, while also increasing active transportation participation citywide. The LRSP was developed to be consistent with the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) safe systems approach and relies heavily on "countermeasures that work." The potential effectiveness of countermeasures was derived from the Local Road Safety Manual and the FHWA Crash Modification Factors (CMF) clearinghouse. Going forward, the projects identified in each plan will be developed in consultation with other plans, to ensure effective implementation of both systemic and hot-spot improvements.
The SRTS Master Plan update embodies the City’s maturing vision for safe and connected multimodal transportation networks. The SRTS Master Plan is an important component of the City’s Vision Zero Policy (Resolution No. 22-48), establishing a policy to work towards zero traffic deaths and severe injuries in the City of Lancaster by 2050.
The City’s update of the SRTS Master Plan is designed to:
• Help Lancaster think more broadly, more effectively, and in a more direct way about how to make the best investments of time and money into active transportation programs and infrastructure.
• Help the City and area school districts, students, families, and the wider community prioritize the bike/pedestrian safety and accessibility needs at individual schools. • Identify what has worked and not worked elsewhere in the state and nation, and offer the best evidence-based strategies for local consideration. • Pair needs to potential solutions based on the likely benefit and effectiveness of specific projects, an informed understanding of opportunities, and in light of local values, needs, desires, and concerns.
• Ensure that the diverse communities and stakeholders throughout Lancaster are effectively engaged and can easily note their concerns and offer their ideas for improvement. • Identify strategies that accomplish multiple objectives and promote transportation solutions that improve mobility and health equity.
• Allow the City to deliver needed projects and programs by competing effectively for a range of federal, state, and regional discretionary grant programs, notably California’s Active Transportation Program (ATP), signed into law in 2013 to create a single program focusing on active transportation.

Introduction
What Is SRTS? Benefits of SRTS The 7 E’s
1 Safe Routes to School programs
are embraced internationally,
because they work.
Denmark first used the term 'safe routes to school’ as it began to tackle its tragic child mortality rate caused by roadway crashes—the worst among Western European nations during the period 1955 –1971. In the mid-1970s, the country was able to begin reversing this trend using what have become trademark Safe Routes to School (SRTS) strategies for infrastructure projects (physical improvements such as sidewalks, crosswalks, road diets, and bike lanes) and noninfrastructure programs (education, encouragement, and enforcement).
Europe, North America, Australia, and New Zealand took notice of Denmark’s success, and initiated their own SRTS programs.
In the U.S., the adoption of SRTS strategies began in the 1990s with projects scattered in a few cities, including the City of Marin in California and the Bronx in New York. In 2005, the U.S. Congress approved funding of state implementation of SRTS programs in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
Until 2012, communities used that funding to construct new bike lanes, pathways, and sidewalks as well as to launch Safe Routes to School education, promotion, and enforcement campaigns in K–8 schools.
Now all state Departments of Transportation (DOTs), including the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), are responsible for implementing the federal Safe Routes to School program, as it has evolved into the latest federal Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP). California has developed its own SRTS programs, which generally require the development of a Safe Routes to School plan in order to apply successfully for funding.
We are Lancaster!
We need a plan that works for us.
Lancaster is one of 88 cities in Los Angeles County, California. Founded in 1876 and incorporated in 1977, the High Desert city of Lancaster, halfway between Bakersfield and Los Angeles, is home to 173,516 people.2 And although Lancaster shares much in common with other Southern California communities, when it comes to crafting a set of SRTS strategies that will be accepted by local users and effective in encouraging more safe physical activity, both our differences and specific needs must be taken into account.
And we are different.
People here have always thrived on independence and ingenuity, and in Lancaster, that ingenuity has often been connected to new transportation systems and technologies. From the early days of the Southern Pacific Railroad to the private Brightline high-speed rail connection from Las Vegas and the planned California High-Speed Rail, from Chuck Yeager's breaking of the sound barrier (1947) to the final landing of the Space Shuttle Endeavour (2012), and from the iconic Antelope Valley Freeway to the longest of Metrolink’s commuter rail routes, Lancaster has both shaped and been shaped by multiple modes of transportation.3 Its main legislative and policy advocacy body is the North County Transportation Coalition, after all.
The Child of the Freeways Comes of Age
With its location in exurban Los Angeles County, and its abundance of relatively lower-cost land and homes, Lancaster has served many as an affordable bedroom community for those with jobs in Los Angeles and elsewhere. Accelerated population growth in the 1950s and 1960s and again in the 1980s and 1990s I. Introduction
What Is SRTS?
Safe Routes to School (SRTS) programs
refer to a suite of strategies that improve
conditions and educate and encourage
children to walk, bike, skate, scoot, or roll
to and from school, whenever it is safe
and feasible to do so.1
1Although SRTS projects often fall into either bicycle or pedestrian improvements (or a combination thereof) and are sometimes referred to as "bike/ped” improvements, the broader term "walk and roll” is also used in this document. It recognizes and includes the wide range of active transportation methods (known as "modes”) used by students at many schools. Thus, the terms "walk and roll” and "walk and bike” as used in this Master Plan are generally intended to include all nonvehicle modes, such as walking, bicycling, or using skateboards, scooters, roller blades, in-line skates, roller skates, and any mobility device such as a wheelchair or stroller. 2 U.S. Census QuickFacts, 2020 https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/lancastercitycalifornia/POP010220 3See the City's website for more fascinating historical detail, at https://www.cityoflancasterca.org/our-city/about-us/history-demographics/history-of-lancaster.

occurred during the expansion of freeways and the primacy of the automobile, ensuring the strong and lasting influence of the dominant car culture of those days. For example, because of those spurts of mid-20th century growth, much of the city’s built environment is comprised of low-density residential areas, many without sidewalks, developed in the era of cul-de-sacs. This makes it more difficult to reach desired destinations from home with a 15-minute walk.
As walkable, bikeable, lively, and inviting residential neighborhoods and business, retail, and leisure districts grow in popularity, Lancaster residents and community leaders have returned to the City's diverse transportation roots and embraced a truly multimodal, interconnected, nonmotorized network that supports public health, mobility, and equity at the same time. The Safe Routes to School movement supports this reorientation, and this SRTS Master Plan focuses on the safety and accessibility of the important trip between home and school.
Transforming the Built
Environment Transforms Us
A major underpinning of all SRTS programs across the nation is the understanding of the relationship between the built environment (our physical surroundings, including roadway design) and the health and livability of our neighborhoods and public spaces. In this regard, it’s apparent that Lancaster was not originally built for walking. But in 2009, the City used a multimodal "Complete Streets" I. Introduction | What Is SRTS?
approach when it redesigned Lancaster Boulevard, which now features a nineblock walkable street dubbed "The BLVD,” which has become the heart of the City and a regional destination.4 If anyone harbored a lingering doubt about the power of the built environment to encourage physical activity and to bring a host of benefits, including supporting local businesses and promoting vibrant community life, they need only spend a Friday night on The BLVD. A similar approach is now underway to create an innovative Medical Main Street, which will concentrate state-of-the-art medical facilities in a few walkable blocks on the Medical Main Street (Lancaster Health District) side of town.
Yet highway-focused transportation’s influence on Lancaster lingers. Over the past 50 years, water and roadway space have become scarce, commutes have become untenable, and the social costs of being a mostly bedroom community have become evident. Lancaster residents and their elected representatives have transitioned over the last decade to become global leaders in a new age of sustainability. For example, Lancaster has begun to rectify its jobs-housing balance, negotiating with electric bus manufacturer Build Your Dreams (BYD), and bringing the manufacturer that is making the Antelope Valley Transit Authority's new 100% zero-emission bus fleet into the City to provide family-wage jobs.
A balanced multimodal, interconnected transportation system (including SRTS strategies) is the Swiss Army Knife of policy solutions. SRTS strategies improve walking and rolling safety, and also address local public health issues such as obesity, asthma, mental health issues, and even academic achievement in comprehensive, evidence-based and mutually reinforcing ways, bringing the built environment into focus as a needed support for more life-sustaining policies and investments. This SRTS Master Plan supports this approach as it affects our schools, in an attempt to mitigate and overcome the physical barriers to active transportation and connectivity at all levels.
4The City now explicitly champions a "Complete Streets” approach to planning that converts dangerous auto-centric streets that discourage pedestrians and bicyclists into inviting multimodal streets that are safe and accessible for all users regardless of travel mode, age, or ability.

The City now explicitly champions a "Complete Streets” approach to planning that converts dangerous auto-centric streets that discourage pedestrians and bicyclists into inviting multimodal streets that are safe and accessible for all users regardless of travel mode, age, or ability.
Still, although there was much support and enthusiasm for the first SRTS Master Plan, a significant portion of the engineering strategies and many of the education and encouragement programs remained unfunded and unimplemented as of 2020 when the City began contemplating updating the Plan.

I. Introduction | What Is SRTS?
A brief history of SRTS in Lancaster
Development of Lancaster's First
SRTS Master Plan (2016)
In 2013, the City, in collaboration with Lancaster’s school districts and a wide group of stakeholders, initiated the development of Lancaster’s first Safe Routes to School Master Plan. Student tallies were taken to see how many students were walking or rolling to school, and walk audits were conducted to assess existing conditions and identify safety and access needs. From those efforts, campus-specific conceptual recommendations for pedestrian and bicycle projects along with proposals for education and encouragement programs were developed for schools within the Lancaster School District, Eastside Union School District, Westside Union School District, and the Antelope Valley Union High School District.
The City of Lancaster completed that initial SRTS Master Plan in 2016.
In the years since that Plan was adopted, significant changes to the built environment, school attendance zones, the economy, local work and travel patterns, and demographics have occurred, thus necessitating a "refresh” of the profiles associated with each school’s campus.
In addition, the City has completed several related transportation modal and safety plans and has shifted the City’s infrastructure, along with public opinion and support, toward a sustainable, Complete Streets, Vision Zero approach to infrastructure investments that aids local and regional mobility, circulation, safety, and access.
Specifically, the City has published its Master Plan of Trails and Bikeways (2012) with updated maps as planned projects are completed, a Master Plan of Complete Streets (2017), and a Safer Streets Action Plan/Systemic Safety Analysis Report (2020). These plans intersect and have informed the framework and recommendations included in this update of the SRTS Master Plan. The City has also received state funding for a Local Roadway Safety Plan, underway as of Spring 2022, to which this SRTS update will provide input.
In addition to specific funding pursuits for several SRTS projects, the City has also completed many of the sidewalks and bike lanes identified in the first SRTS Master Plan

I. Introduction | What Is SRTS?
What does Lancaster need that
a fully implemented SRTS Master Plan
would address?
The City’s update of the SRTS Master Plan is designed to:
• Help Lancaster think more broadly, more effectively, and in a more direct way about how to make the best investments of time and money into active transportation programs and infrastructure. • Help the City and area school districts, students, families, and the wider community prioritize the bike/ped safety and accessibility needs at individual schools.
• Identify what has worked and not worked elsewhere in the state and the nation, and offer the best evidence-based strategies for local consideration.
• Pair needs to potential solutions based on the likely benefit and effectiveness of specific projects, an informed understanding of opportunities, and in light of local values, needs, desires, and concerns.
• Ensure that the diverse communities and stakeholders throughout Lancaster are effectively engaged and can easily note their concerns and offer their ideas for improvement. • Identify strategies that accomplish multiple objectives and promote transportation solutions that improve mobility and health equity.
• Allow the City to deliver needed projects and programs by competing effectively for a range of federal, state, and regional discretionary grant programs, notably California’s Active Transportation Program (ATP), signed into law in 2013 to create a single program focusing on active transportation.
We already have a Safe Routes to School
Master Plan. Why are we updating it?
This update was needed to "refresh” the City’s 2016 plan based on ongoing as well as newly emerging community needs, and to reflect changes in existing conditions near schools in light of projects that have been built or are funded or planned. The SRTS Master Plan update also embodies the City’s maturing vision for safe and connected multimodal transportation networks.
An updated SRTS Master Plan also allows the City to deliver needed projects and programs by competing effectively for a range of federal, state, and regional discretionary grant programs. Chief among these is the California Transportation Commission’s Active Transportation Program (ATP), signed into law in 2013 to create a single program focusing on active transportation. The program, administered by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), aims to increase the share of walking and biking trips, improve safety for non-motorized trips, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and improve public health.
Though SRTS programs benefit everyone, ATP statutorily targets disadvantaged communities to improve overall transportation equity in California. The program prizes community engagement and rewards well-designed plans. In 2022, Lancaster submitted two projects for funding in the ATP Cycle 6 call for projects: an infrastructure project focused on three schools along 5th Street East, and a non-infrastructure project designed to rebuild and sustain the education and encouragement programs identified in Section V of this Master Plan. (See https://catc. ca.gov/programs/active-transportation-program for more information.) Another factor calling for an SRTS Refresh is that COVID-19 stay-at-home practices and initial reentry travel patterns reflect disruptions to healthy active living walking and rolling habits. The City must understand these new patterns, and work to restore and increase student walk and roll participation, in response to new community concerns.
Finally, the See and Be Seen SRTS safety education program has begun since the last Master Plan was adopted, and this award-winning and innovative program will be delivering early results during the life of this SRTS Refresh. Engagement with students and teachers, parents and administrators about the effectiveness of different elements of the program, including the marketing of the program, must inform an updated set of recommendations for noninfrastructure strategies for Lancaster’s Schools.

Crash rates underscore the need
to reduce bicycle and pedestrian
deaths and injuries
In 2019, compared to 59 cities of similar size (between 100,001-250,000 population), Lancaster ranked 2nd for total fatal and injury roadway crashes (meaning the City had the second most deadly and dangerous driving conditions); 12/59 for pedestrians under 15 years old killed and injured, and 19/59 for bicyclists under 15 killed and injured, and 40/58 for all bicyclists killed and injured. Sadly, Lancaster also ranks third of 59 cities in its population group for DUI arrests.5 An analysis of crash data available through UC Berkeley’s Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS) database shows that in the 11 years from 2010 through 2021, there were 5 bicycle fatalities and 61 pedestrian fatalities in Lancaster included in the total of 391 bicycle fatal/injury crashes and 588 fatal/injury pedestrian crashes during that period. Of these, 26 bicycle crashes resulted in severe injuries; 70 pedestrian crashes resulted in severe injury.6 This metric may indicate the need for targeted driver awareness campaigns or enforcement initiatives among area adults, including drivers of high school age.
Pedestrian crashes have seen an annualized growth rate of 3% per year over the past 11 years. Although bicycle crashes have not increased during that period, neither have they declined.
Nearly a third of the total victims are children and young people, with 16% aged 14 or younger, and another 15% are between 15 and 19 years old, over 10% are 60 years or older. It is important for users of all ages and levels of ability to walk and roll safely near schools, as many parents and guardians accompany their children to school. Additionally, high rates of crashes involving the elderly can indicate a need for improved crosswalks or longer walk intervals at pedestrian signals.
Crashes by type of violation
Failure to observe traffic rules accounts for the bulk of these fatalities and injuries, and without an implemented SRTS Program, we can expect to continue seeing an average of 6 fatalities and 83 injuries to pedestrians and bicyclists each year.
In terms of failure to obey traffic laws, TIMS data show that 42% were due to drivers, 42% were due to pedestrians, and 6% were due to bicyclists. Clearly, education for ALL roadway users is needed.
Citywide, pedestrians who fail to yield the right-of-way to vehicles when crossing outside of a marked or unmarked crosswalk account for 31% of crashes. Pedestrians walking in the road where there are no sidewalks were factors in 5.2% of crashes, which has implications for both education as well as pointing to the need for sidewalk infrastructure.
Drivers who fail to yield to pedestrians when they are at a marked or unmarked crosswalk cause another 27%. Driver speeding was implicated in 4.3% of crashes, with unsafe turns (3.4%), and failure to stop at limit lines or red lights (2.7%) adding to the list of driver-related violations.
Crashes by location of pedestrian
In the 588 city-wide crashes listed, 195 (33%) involved pedestrians who were crossing in a crosswalk at an intersection. Another 226 (28%) were pedestrians crossing outside of a crosswalk, and 125 (21%) were pedestrians walking in the road, including on the shoulder. Again this has implications for education on the part of pedestrians as well as motorists.
Lancaster’s kids need more physical
activity, and so do their families!
Although physical fitness levels are higher in the more affluent areas of Lancaster, there is a citywide need to increase levels of physical activity and to decrease factors in chronic disease that can limit opportunities and enjoyment throughout the lifespan.
5th Grade Fitness Standards Attainment
Only 11.7% of Lancaster School District 5th graders meet all fitness standards;
17.1% at Eastside Union; 32.1% at Westside Union. These figures compare to
21.0% in LA County and 23.1% statewide. (Kidsdata.org)
Childhood Obesity in Lancaster
For 5th grade students, childhood obesity rates (2019 KidsData.org) is 53.4% (Eastside Union School District); 45.8% (Lancaster School District); and 33.7% (Westside Union School District). This compares to 41.3% statewide and 45.6% for Los Angeles County.
Adult Obesity and Diabetes in Lancaster
Of Lancaster adults 18 and older, 29% are obese (compared to 24% countywide) and 13% have been diagnosed with diabetes (compared to 10% countywide) (LA County DPH, 2015).

6 SRTS Master Plan
SAFE ROUTES
TO SCHOOL
Need to address serious crime
and bullying on the way to
school or back home
Crime and bullying are frequently cited by parents and school officials as barriers to more students walking or rolling to school. Lancaster suffers from a rate of serious crime that is 28% higher than LA County (704 per 100,000 people, compared to 551 per 100,000 county-wide). LA County DPH, 2015 Bullying is also a problem: 34% of Westside Union 7th graders reported being bullied at school the previous year. Data were unavailable for the other two school districts, but LA County reported 33% of 7th graders being bullied. (Data from 2017–2019 for both Westside Union and LA County; KidsData.org.)
A plan that addresses concerns for personal safety and security must include walking and rolling in groups, and/or in the company of parents or neighborhood volunteers. Leveraging school anti-bullying programs would also be effective in removing this factor as an obstacle to walking/rolling to school.
An Effective SRTS Master Plan that
Recognizes Lancaster is Dif ferent
Planners like to talk about "context-sensitive” design and solutions. And state and federal funders like to know that their grantees have thought about this.
That simply means identifying projects and creating education, encouragement, and enforcement strategies that fit the community. What can work in Santa Monica or downtown Los Angeles may not be feasible or effective in Lancaster.
I. Introduction | What Is SRTS?
Weather or Not?
So far, every obstacle to improving rates of active transportation in Lancaster can be removed or lessened. There is one issue that arose in the 2021–22 Parent Surveys and during the 28 Virtual Walk Audits that can’t easily be changed, and that’s the weather. Extreme heat and wind were cited frequently as parental concerns, and a scan of Lancaster’s hourly temperatures and wind speeds in 2021 show that when it isn’t sweltering, wind speeds might be at 31–39 miles per hour, or near gale speeds and higher. School district representatives agree that focusing outdoor activities in the months where parents are comfortable allowing their children to walk or roll to school (April– June and later September through November) would make sense for this High Desert climate.

SRTS programs are widespread
because they work.
Over the past 30 years, SRTS programs have become sophisticated and effective in creating fun, convenient, and safe opportunities for children to walk and roll to and from school. A large and growing body of research on traffic safety, public health, psychology, academic achievement, and social science research has documented significant and lasting benefits of SRTS. Benefits come from both infrastructure projects to create safe and inviting pathways for pedestrians, bicyclists, and other non-motorized users, and non-infrastructure programs that complement the physical improvements with education and encouragement strategies designed to increase physical activity, safety awareness, and healthy habits.7 Benefits of Infrastructure Projects:
When Lancaster invests in bike lanes and sidewalks, it’s investing in public health and better student achievement. It reduces the human cost and economic burden of pedestrian and bicycle fatalities and serious injuries.
Benefits of Education and Encouragement Projects:
Implementation of SRTS strategies such as walking school buses (as recommended in this Plan) has resulted in higher rates of walking to school, increased daily moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, and decreased overweight and obese children.8

Now, more than ever, after years of distance learning and isolation, our school children need to return to active living and healthy habits. We’re seeing increases in child deaths and injuries from crashes for the first time in years, in many places. Thus, SRTS has a special role in mending much of what was damaged during the pandemic.
Yet COVID-19 is not the only health risk facing the nation. According to the Journal of the American Medical Association, obesity has doubled among children and quadrupled among adolescents in the past 30 years. By 2012, more than one-third of children or adolescents were overweight or obese.9 Although parents often mention distance as a reason their children can’t walk to school, the SRTS surveys and analysis of enrollment areas and population density show that many students in urban and suburban Lancaster are within ¼ to ½ mile from school, which is a comfortable walking or cycling distance. If this SRTS Program can improve safety and encourage more walking and rolling to school, benefits will begin to flow throughout the community. As we said, SRTS is the Swiss Army Knife of solutions—it really does everything!

plans result from ongoing,
meaningful engagement
with the students, families,
schools, and local
community organizations
who will benefit from the
projects and programs.
Community engagement
that continues beyond plan
adoption ensures that the
SRTS is a living document
and that implementation
of the plan is responsive
to intergenerational needs
for bicycle and pedestrian
facilities and programs as
they change over time.
9 At the core of Lancaster’s
SRTS is a commitment to
deliver high-quality and
effective projects and
programs to all school
communities, especially
disadvantaged and lowincome students, students of
color, and mobility-impaired
students who face challenges
to walking, bicycling, or
rolling to school safely and
comfortably.
Creative, innovative
and evidence-based
engineering solutions will
make streets, sidewalks and
neighborhoods more inviting
and safer for those walking,
biking, rolling, skating or
scooting to school. Solutions
will be developed to address
both systemic and sitespecific problems.
Programmed and funded
events, public recognition,
themed activities, posters,
and signage will support
current walkers and rollers
and inspire others to join
them. School-focused and
community-wide events will
be identified and scheduled.
The City will partner with
school districts and funders

I. Introduction
The 7 E’s ’
SRTS plans across the nation are typically organized into strategies known as the `E’s —originally five in number—now often including equity and engagement, as Lancaster has chosen to do.
The 7 `E’s shown here were developed with Stakeholder Advisory Team review, and reflect Lancaster’s unique perspective, needs, and concerns. Equity is considered as a separate factor but is also integrated into all other strategies, as shown on the next page. 15 MPH

10 The State of California—and the City of
Lancaster—take equity seriously, and
the national SRTS program’s evolution
has reflected larger social desires to knit
communities back together, whether they
have been separated by physical barriers
(such as freeways dividing school districts
or even an elementary school enrollment
boundary) or socioeconomic barriers that
are aggravated by long-standing policies
and investment practices.
How is equity
different than
equality?
As many communities have discovered, SRTS programs are
more effective for everyone when they consider equitable outcomes rather than focusing solely on equal inputs.
With respect to SRTS, equity recognizes that mobility
barriers are experienced differently by communities and individuals based on income, race or ethnicity, gender, and disability, among other factors.
How would this be so? Perhaps Anna, a second-grader
who lives within a few blocks of her school, is afraid to walk to school, and her parents are hesitant to allow her to do so because of excessive speeding and neighborhood
crime that may be worse in the lower-income neighborhood where she lives. Spending resources in all areas equally, whether they need it or not, does not recognize the
higher need in our little girl’s neighborhood. The visual representation of the difference between equality and
equity (Figure 2) shows an unhappy outcome for the boy
in purple, under an "equality” approach, and a happy
outcome for all under the "equity” approach.
I. Introduction | The 7 E’s ’
Weaving the Thread of Equity Into the SRTS Master Plan
ENGAGEMENT It is essential that parents and neighbors around all of Lancaster’s schools get involved. Schools consistently reported the need for more parent volunteers to implement SRTS programs and events on a consistent basis.
A key feature in the proposed "SRTS Refresh, Rebuild, Recruit, Sustain” program (submitted for funding consideration in Cycle 6 of the Caltrans Active Transportation Program) will help parents develop skills and confidence to lead walking school buses and to support school crossing guards and campus supervisors, to help organize school award ceremonies, walk and roll safety clinics, community fun rides, charity bike donation and repair programs, and more. Support of potential parent volunteers is especially important for those in disadvantaged communities, or in non-English-speaking households, or where work and childcare factors pose additional barriers to parental engagement. With leadership from a Community-Based Organization that will serve as a city-wide SRTS Coordinator (if funded) and engagement with Parent Teacher Associations (PTAs) and Parent Teacher Organizations (PTOs), this program will provide the scaffolding to help improve everyone’s trip to school as they implement SRTS at their schools.
EQUITY Lancaster’s SRTS Master Plan, as it will evolve, can continue to explicitly prioritize investment in projects and programs that benefit disadvantaged communities by refining and applying the school prioritization framework that was used in this 2021 – 2022 update to help rank schools in terms of need. (See Section V for more detail about school prioritization.)
ENGINEERING Prioritizing street safety projects in lower-income areas helps address equity, as does Lancaster’s recommendation to engage communities in a Safe School Access and Circulation Plan Pilot Program, which ensures community input into improved drop-off and pickup.
ENCOURAGEMENT The SRTS Master Plan’s encouragement activities will be available and accessible to all Lancaster children, with translation into Spanish or other languages, as needed. Children at each school will be supported to develop their own unique walk and roll clubs, which will naturally reflect the values and interests of the respective school community. The City and the SRTS Coordinator will work with each school district to ensure that Lancaster’s diverse range of schools participates in the activities that are offered.
EDUCATION Develop educational materials and approaches that are culturally sensitive and leverage each community’s strengths. For example, family activities embedded in lesson plans bring parents under the SRTS tent and might even encourage parents to engage in one of Lancaster’s school district-level or individual school SRTS volunteer activities.
EVALUATION Develop benchmarks for desired outcomes (student participation in walking/rolling to school; physical fitness attainment; obesity; chronic illnesses) that include an analysis of whether disparities between lower-income and higher-income school enrollment areas are decreasing as a result of SRTS programs. Open-ended survey questions can help identify any unintended consequences which may not have had positive outcomes on disadvantaged communities.
ENFORCEMENT Develop supportive law enforcement strategies to address traffic and crime, coupled with positive messages that encourage students and the larger community to engage in safe active transportation modes when possible.
Leverage existing school-based anti-bullying programs to reduce harassment as kids walk or roll to school, and enlist parent volunteers to keep adult eyes on the routes between home and school.

Artist: Angus Maguire interactioninstitute.org and madewithangus.com The SRTS emphasis on environmental justice is shared by the City’s SRTS Master Plan and the Environmental Justice Element in the General Plan, which was updated and approved in 2022. In particular, two of the seven "E’s”—equity and engagement, are critical to increase environmental justice in Lancaster.
What is Environmental Justice?
The State of California defines Environmental Justice as the "fair treatment and meaningful involvement of people of all races, cultures, incomes, and national origins with respect to the development, adoption, implementation, and enforcement of laws, regulations, and policies,” California Government Code section 65040.12(e).
This goal will be achieved when everyone has the same degree of protection from environmental and health hazards, and equal access to the decision-making process to have a healthy environment to live, learn, and work.
Environmental Justice Element
in the General Plan
In September 2016, Senate Bill 1000 (SB 1000) was adopted requiring jurisdictions with disadvantaged communities to incorporate environmental justice policies into their general plans. State law requires environmental justice policies to be incorporated into the general plan upon the adoption or the next revision of two or more general elements.
The City of Lancaster is in the process of updating both the Housing Element and the Safety Element, which also requires the City to include the environmental justice policies in the general plan.
The City of Lancaster will prepare a new Environmental Justice Element that will address the following environmental justice goals, policies, and objectives as required by State law:
• Reduction of pollution exposure and improving air quality • Promoting access to public facilities
• Promoting access to healthy foods
• Promoting safe and sanitary homes
• Promoting physical activity
• Promoting civic engagement

They strongly intersect around issues of safety, public health, physical activity and healthy lifestyles, walkability, and the availability of safe, low-cost mobility options.
Both the EJ Element and the SRTS Master Plan identify walking and biking as effective ways to reduce chronic illness, as well as to get around without having to tax the household budget disproportionately. And both plans emphasize public engagement and empowerment as both means and ends to realizing their shared goals.
All 7 'E’s as defined by this Master Plan are relevant and responsive to issues raised through the community engagement process that was part of the development Both the SRTS Master Plan and
the EJ Element Emphasize
Community Engagement
The City made sure to engage with communities as it developed the EJ Element, just as it did in refreshing the SRTS Master Plan. The Master Plan community engagement is summarized in Section IV of this document.
In a separate, but complementary effort, the EJ Element team hosted a range of outreach sessions that captured diverse stakeholders, with special focus on community members and service providers from the area identified as an Environmental Justice Community in Lancaster, i.e., Census Tract 9003. These included:
• February 24, 2021: Focus Group Meeting
• March 4, 2021: Community Workshops

The red circles in the following graphics
indicate shared priorities and strategies for
addressing community concerns around
access to parks (which in many cases
is aided by better active transportation
routes to schools); the need for safe, shady,
landscaped sidewalks and bike paths,
and the need for encouragement and
support to move to a healthy, physically
active lifestyle.
11 Making Sense of Multiple Metrics
for Populations of Concern
For some years, communities and their elected leaders have been focused on how to define and identify "disadvantaged communities” or other types of populations of concern, and then engage with them in order to address long-standing issues such as poverty, failing or inadequate infrastructure, community disinvestment, and disproportionate burdens of pollution. These efforts have been pursued at the local, state, and federal levels, and have resulted in an overlapping and sometimes confusing array of metrics, maps, and requirements for local jurisdictions, as well as opportunities for funding needed projects.
Lancaster’s SRTS Master Plan update has developed a prioritization framework (see Section V of this Plan) that uses student eligibility for the Free or Reduced Price Meals (FRPM) program as a logical metric of relative community advantage or disadvantage as one factor to prioritize schools for project implementation. The SRTS Master Plan used the FRPM metric because it reflects the needs related to students near the City’s schools.
The EJ Element used the required State of California CalEnviroScreen indicator, which unfortunately underrepresents important areas of inequity both within Lancaster and relative to other parts of the state. However, it is the accepted metric for the EJ Element analysis. The EJ Element also provides maps using other data sources such as the California Healthy Places Index and pertinent U.S. Census Tract data.
Similarly, the SRTS Master Plan shows a range of socioeconomic data in the maps in Section II, along with pedestrian and bicycle crash data. These metrics highlight different ways of thinking about equity, racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic status, and the impacts of public investment decisions across communities. The analyses included in both plans indicate that in general, communities on the west side of Lancaster are healthier and wealthier than those in the central and eastern areas.

Summary of Activities
SRTS Update Prioritizes 28 Elementary and Middle Schools .
This update ("refresh”) of the SRTS Master Plan was conducted during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impacts on every aspect of our lives. For schools, this meant the staff was expending significant time and energy adapting to remote learning and then struggling with the initial re-entry of students in Fall 2021. Because area high schools were experiencing significant challenges with both of these phases, the City determined that this update should prioritize the elementary and middle schools within the City limits, as well as a handful of schools that are located in unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County, but with significant portions of the City included within their enrollment boundaries. The 28 Master Plan schools are mapped, along with their respective district boundaries (Westside Union School District, Lancaster School District, and Eastside Union School District) are shown in the maps on pages 13–16.
Key Activities of the Master Plan Update
The City of Lancaster and its consultant team (collectively known as the Project Development Team, or PDT), organized the work to conduct this refresh of the SRTS Master Plan into the following main categories:
Engaging the Community
The City conducted a multi-faceted, year-long effort to engage school districts, individual schools, parents, local champions, law enforcement, Community-Based Organizations (CBOs), and all Lancaster residents, as described in the Community Engagement section of this Plan.
Collecting Data
An intensive data-collection effort included gathering information on existing and planned pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, local crash data, demographics, as well as public health and environmental factors. Crash maps for elementary and middle school enrollment areas are presented later in this section, while much of the remaining data is displayed visually in the maps included in the Citywide Existing Conditions section of this Plan. Both sets of maps and data trends underscore the need for safe and inviting routes to school that encourage more physical activity and reduce reliance on the automobile.
Conducting Annual Student Tallies
The SRTS plan refresh process offered an opportunity to reinstate the annual Student Tally which, along with pedestrian/bicyclist crash rates, is one of the chief benchmarks of SRTS progress. Students at all 28 schools were surveyed to determine how they made the trip to/from school during Fall 2021. In all, 13,976 individual students participated in the surveys, conducted in a total of 664 classrooms, for three consecutive days. Student Tally results showed that approximately 10% of students walked, and less than 1% rode a bicycle to school in September and October 2021. Individual school results are presented in summary form on pages 20–21, along with a comparison to the 2013–2015 Student Tallies. Though Fall 2021 might be an outlier, due to changes in travel patterns caused by the pandemic, there was a decline in walking and rolling at most schools, compared to the 2013–2015 period. Part of the need for this update and rebooting of the SRTS education and encouragement programs is to reclaim prior levels of active transportation that were seen before COVID-19, and then surpass them.
Creating a Prioritization Framework
Even considering the potential of discretionary grant funding awards, the revenues available to build SRTS projects or support programs are far less than the need. The City of Lancaster must prioritize investments to ensure local and non-local funding is used effectively in the communities where the need is the greatest. As a first step, the City worked with the Stakeholder Advisory Team to develop a prioritization framework that rated and ranked the 28 schools based on factors including safety, known infrastructure gaps, equity (measured as the percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price meals), Student Tally data, and student density within a half-mile of each school. This information was compiled and used to rank the schools, as detailed in pages 53 – 56. (Projects that are recommended for each school will themselves be prioritized in a follow-on Phase 2 Feasibility Assessment, outlined on page 69.)
Developing Menus of Best Options
With reference to state and national standards, evidence-based active transportation best practices, and the City’s own policies and design guidelines, two sets of candidate SRTS strategies were developed. One set includes the "Engineering” projects—sidewalks, bicycle lanes, crosswalks, signage, and a host of traffic calming projects that make the built environment safer and create lower-stress pedestrian and bicycle pathways that encourage more kids and their families to walk and roll.
The second set includes all the other 'E’s as defined locally, such as coordinated, supported, and sustained education and encouragement programs within the schools and in the community at large. This set of strategies also includes enforcement of speed limits near school drop-off and pick-up locations, engagement with the community (e.g., recruiting a new set of parent volunteers), and evaluation (how can we measure success? All the 'E’s are connected by an overarching goal to ensure that equity in SRTS investments is advanced, and that disadvantaged community needs are heard and met.
Assembling School-Specific Recommendations
Based on the unique set of physical and socioeconomic conditions at each school, the PDT developed a set of recommendations for implementation at each of the 28 Master Plan schools. These recommendations are illustrated in the School Profiles for each school.
These recommendations may be modified by future circumstances, but generally will serve as the basis for funding pursuits, and will be referenced by other City departments as related infrastructure programs are implemented, or policies are developed. 14 SRTS Master Plan

Citywide Crash Trends
Within the City of Lancaster, there were 4,301 vehicle collisions recorded between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2019. Observed on an annual basis, the year with the most documented collisions was 2016 with 902, while the year with the least documented collisions was 2018, with 818. The variability from year to year was slight but noticeable, though the drop in overall collisions reversed slightly in 2019, as shown in Figure 1.
When examining the number of collisions during the course of a week, a noticeable drop occurs over the weekend with Sunday experiencing the lowest collision totals over the observed period. Weekdays experience higher overall collision frequency, peaking on Fridays, as shown in Figure 2. This trend is likely driven by greater volumes of traffic on the road as people commute, which has implications for student safety on their way to and from school.
When examining the number of collisions based on involvement with respect to the object or party the motor vehicle was involved with, it is clear that the vast majority, over 75% of all collisions, involve another motor vehicle on the roadway. However, nearly 10% of all collisions involved pedestrians (243 or 5.6%) or bicyclists (159 or 3.7%). A breakdown of these statistics can be seen in Figure 3.
In total, 96 fatalities and over 7,000 injuries resulted from collisions in Lancaster between 2015 and 2019. Of those fatalities, nearly one-third (28), were pedestrians, despite pedestrians being involved in only 5.6% of all collisions, a gross over-representation. A breakdown of the proportion of pedestrian and bicyclist injuries and fatalities is shown in Figure 4.
Pedestrian and Bicycle Collision Maps
Data on vehicle-pedestrian and vehicle-bicycle collisions was then mapped and spatially analyzed. The greatest concentration of these collisions occurred at or near primary arterial intersections in Central Lancaster, with most occurring between Avenue I and Avenue K north to south and between 20th Street West and 30th Street Crashes
Safe Routes to School programs strive to bring the level of fatalities and severe injuries down while increasing physical activity among students. It’s important to have comprehensive collision data to help us understand the causes of injury crashes as well as the effectiveness of our strategies to prevent them. Crash data is also a key metric to identify where investment in projects or programs is most needed.
Crash data for the years 2015 to 2019 was acquired from the University of California Berkeley’s Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS) site.
TIMS utilizes the State of California’s Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) database to provide data on collisions where injury or fatalities occurred. Thus, the analysis in this section concerns only those collisions. The years 2015 to 2019 were chosen to avoid outliers caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
East from west to east. Outside of these boundaries, additional high concentrations occurred:
• Between Avenue H and Avenue I east of SR-14 and west of Sierra Highway • Along 30th Street West between Avenue J and Avenue L

About the Following Project Elementary
& Middle School Collision Density Maps:
A look at the crash maps in Section II shows disproportionately high rates of pedestrian- and bicycle- involved crashes in Lancaster’s lower-income communities.
This reflects trends at the national level, where pedestrian fatality rates in lowerincome communities are more than twice that of higher-income communities. ("Pedestrian Deaths in Poorer Neighborhoods Report,” Governing, August 2014.
Available at http://www.governing.)
"Walking is a basic human right,” says Scott Bricker, director of the nonprofit America Walks, and lower-income neighborhoods mean more people are walking.10 An equity lens can help concentrate Complete Streets improvements where they deliver the biggest bang for the buck: in poorer neighborhoods, where people walk more, and where there are higher rates of pedestrian-involved fatalities and injury crashes. 10https://www.governing.com/archive/gov-pedestrian-deaths-analysis.html Figure 3.

Long Term Decline in
Walking and Bicycling
Lancaster’s active transportation rate reflects national trends. Between 1969 and 2009, a significant decline in the percentage of students walking or bicycling to school occurred across the nation.
Source: Data compiled by Saferoutesinfo.org, http://guide.saferoutesinfo.org/introduction/ the_decline_of_walking_and_bicycling.cfm
Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) survey data from 2005 shows that the reasons cited by parents that prevented them from allowing their own children to walk or bicycle to school mirror those cited in 2022 by parents in Lancaster: distance to school, traffic risks, weather, and crime.
In part, this decline is explained by expanded enrollment boundaries that mean much longer distances between many homes and schools. Another portion of the decline is due to changes in social norms, and habitual use of vehicles under all but the most favorable weather conditions.
National Trends and
Lessons from the Pandemic
According to the Safe Routes Partnership, in 2022 "physical activity has fallen further down on the priority list for many people.”11 Early in the pandemic, there were already signs of disparate trends relative to physical activity in the general population. As of June 2020, nearly one-third of US adults reported decreased levels of physical activity, although 20% reported increases. The increased activity was reported more often by Caucasians, while decreases were higher among Black and Hispanic adults, trends which only exacerbate existing health disparities.12 The COVID-19 pandemic created interesting eddies and currents within the SRTS stream during the 2021-2022 school year in which this SRTS Master Plan was updated. For example, though many parents chose to drive their children to school—more than had previously done so—there was also a school bus driver shortage, which meant parents had to either chauffeur their students to school or allow them to bike or walk the longer distances implied by the existence of a bus route.
Need to Rebuild SRTS
Programs to Boost
Active Transportation
Participation Rates
The pandemic and its aftermath have impacted everything in the Antelope Valley, including our previous progress in encouraging our children to increase their physical activity and walk, bike, skate, scoot, or roll to school when and where they can safely do so.
With declines in active transportation participation rates across nearly all schools seen in the Fall 2021 student tallies, compared to the 2013–2015 baseline, it is time for Lancaster to get moving again. The SRTS Master Plan recommends multiple projects and programs that work together to restore higher levels of participation in walking and rolling to school.
Looking at the SRTS Master Plan update’s 28 surveyed schools as a whole, the Fall 2021 Student Tallies show only 10% of the 13,976 students surveyed were walking to school, and less than 1% were bicycling. This represents a decline in active transportation participation, on average, throughout the City. However, a school-by-school analysis must accompany any more granular interpretation in order to make a useful recommendation. For example, in 2013–2015, 32% of students walked to Linda Verde Elementary School. In Fall 2021, only 9% walked to the school. However, that campus had transitioned to become Linda Verde K-8 Dual Language School, with a district-wide enrollment boundary. Thus the reduction in walking is at least partially explained by the fact that some enrolled students live beyond comfortable walking distance.
However, El Dorado Elementary School shows steep declines in walking (from 28% to 8%), despite no changes in enrollment boundaries having occurred. This suggests that parental concerns about COVID-19, and their possible increased • In 1969, 48% of children 5 to 14 years of age usually walked or bicycled to school (The National Center for Safe Routes to School, 2011).
• In 2009, 13% of children 5 to 14 years of age usually walked or bicycled to school (National Center, 2011).
• In 1969, 41% of children in grades K–8 lived within one mile of school; o 89% of these children usually walked or bicycled to school (U.S. Department of Transportation [USDOT], 1972).
• In 2009, 31% of children in grades K–8 lived within one mile of school; o 35% of these children usually walked or bicycled
to school (National Center, 2011).

For schools in similar situations, it is important that, in addition to recommended infrastructure, the City rebuilds fun and compelling SRTS programs in order to reengage student participants and attract needed parent volunteers through support and marketing of the project activities as described in Section V of this Master Plan.
Decongesting Roadways
Helps All Modes, All Users
Nationally, 10% – 14% of car trips during morning rush hour are for school travel.13 Although Lancaster doesn’t have an identical metric, it is clear from the comparison of 2021 Student Tally data with the 2013 – 2015 baseline, that during the pandemic a significantly higher percentage of parents chose to chauffeur their children to school. Not only does this deprive many children of healthy physical activity on a daily basis, but it also entails four vehicle trips to and from home to complete each paired set of drop-off/pick-up journeys. This wastes time, fuel, and money, and eats up valuable road space, especially scarce during the peak morning commute period. Traffic congestion occurring during student drop-off and pick-up periods was identified as a severe problem for safety and civility during nearly every Virtual Walk Audit conducted in Fall 2021. Getting kids back on II. Scope of the Master Plan
Key Observations About Trip-to-School Patterns
"Walking is easiest when it is built into
everyday activities and locations where
people spend their time, such as schools,
worksites, and communities”
(US Department of Health and Human Services. Step It Up! The Surgeon General’s Call to Action to Promote Walking and Walkable Communities; 2015) their feet and/or on their bikes will reduce much of this congestion and improve safety near schools which is another damper on student walk and roll rates. Note that the City is also proposing to develop access and circulation plans for schools that need additional help in detangling arrival/dismissal periods, in collaboration with schools and surrounding communities. These plans would explicitly prioritize active transportation modes, though motorists would also benefit.
What is the new normal?
It depends on us.
In this regard, it is important not to read too much into the Fall 2021 Student Tally data, they may represent outliers related to the pandemic. Rather, the City and schools should work to fully fund and implement the SRTS Master Plan, on the assumption that much of the lost ground can be regained.
What is clear and has become perhaps more apparent in light of the pandemic, is the value of physical activity. Walking and bicycling are low-tech, low-cost, reliable, and resilient ways to keep people moving, active, healthy and connected. In fact, during the height of the pandemic, the League of American Bicyclists promoted the designation of bicycle shops as essential businesses.13 Indeed, walking and cycling provided safe recreation and solace, as well as safe transportation options for many, including essential workers.
Although it may seem difficult to advocate for SRTS in an era of multiple social challenges, safe and convenient physical activity should be viewed as a foundation for public health and local preparedness for all manner of emergency conditions.
Walking to school, for those within a mile or less from their school should thus be a first consideration, and schools and local governments must make walking and bicycling easy choices for students and their parents.

Infrastructure Demographics Environmentally Burdened Areas Health 27 III. Infrastructure | Citywide Maps
Certain elements of analysis were examined at a citywide scale for a more comprehensive understanding of conditions across the City. Such elements include enrollment boundaries, infrastructure, and indicators that only occur in certain portions of the city. Further detail on these maps is given below, in the order the maps are presented.
Existing Roadway Network Functional Class
This map shows the city’s roadway network by functional classification. There are three primary roadway functional classes as defined by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA)—Major/Primary Arterials, Secondary Arterials, and Local Roads—which differ based on intended roadway capacity, speed, and design.
The City’s roadway network is bisected by the SR-14 freeway and Sierra Highway, and mostly consists of a grid of superblocks outlined by arterials, with an embedded grid of collectors connecting the central portion of the City. A more varied network of local streets lies within the superblocks.
Existing and Future Active Transportation Network
This map showcases the existing and future bikeway network within the City of Lancaster and its surrounds, as well as the City’s recreational trail network. The City’s network of bikeways, primarily constituting Class II bike lanes, is robust, particularly in central Lancaster.
City Equity & Disadvantaged
Communities Status
SB 535 Disadvantaged Areas
This map identifies "disadvantaged communities,” so designated for the purpose of SB 535. These have been designated using the CalEnviroScreen 3.0 screening methodology, which helps identify California communities that are disproportionately burdened by multiple sources of pollution. Disadvantaged Areas are located along the northern and eastern boundaries of the City, consisting of neighborhoods north of Avenue H and east of Sierra Highway, as well as north of Avenue J and east of 30th Street East, and continue north to Edwards Air Force Base.
SCAG Environmental Justice Areas
This map showcases Environmental Justice Areas (EJAs) as identified by SCAG in the Lancaster area. SCAG identified EJAs as locations with a higher concentration of minority populations or households in poverty than seen in the greater SCAG region. The most contiguous block of EJAs is located in central and eastern Lancaster east of the SR-14 freeway, but EJAs are scattered throughout the City.
Other demographic and socioeconomic indicators were best examined in proximity to the project schools. As such, each of the following maps displays data only within a half-mile buffer of the project schools.
The following two map sets identify schools that might hold the most opportunity for increasing the number and percentage of students walking and rolling to school.
Population Density
These maps showcase the overall population density within a half-mile of project schools and is presented at the census block group (CBG) level using 2010 Census geographies. Population density is highest in central Lancaster, though varies considerably from block to block.
Population Under Age 18
These maps showcase the percentage of the population that is under age 18 within a half-mile of project schools and are presented at the CBG level using 2010 Census geographies. Overall, Lancaster has a youthful population, with large portions of the City having youth populations in excess of 30 – 40%. The youth population is slightly lower in the outskirts of the City by Del Sur K-8 School and Eastside Elementary School.
A common theme in the data emerges from the maps that are described below: where central and eastern Lancaster score noticeably higher in measures of pollution, health, and socioeconomic burdens than western Lancaster or Quartz Hill.
Race and Ethnicity
These maps showcase the racial and ethnic composition of the population within a half-mile of project schools in dot density format, with each dot representing 25 individuals and dots color-coded to represent different racial and ethnic groups commonly used by the Census Bureau: non-Hispanic white, non-Hispanic Black, Hispanic/Latino of any race, non-Hispanic Asian, and Other Races (including Native American, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander) or Multiracial. This map shows that populations of Black and Hispanic residents are more highly concentrated in central and eastern Lancaster, while non-Hispanic White populations are higher in western Lancaster and Quartz Hill. This information illuminates racial disparities among other socioeconomic indicators examined, with pollution and disease burdens higher for minority populations. This map is presented at the CBG level using 2020 Census geographies.
Median Household Income
These maps showcase the median household income within a half-mile of project schools and is presented at the CBG level using 2010 Census geographies.
Median household income is significantly higher in western Lancaster and Quartz Hill, with a greater concentration of six-figure earning households, than central or eastern Lancaster, where some neighborhoods have a median household income of less than $20,000.
Households with Limited English Ability
These maps showcase the percentage of limited English-speaking households, determined as one in which no member of the household speaks only English or speaks another language at home and doesn’t speak English “very well”, within a half-mile of project schools, and is presented at the CBG level using 2010 Census geographies. While the percentage of households with limited English-speaking ability is generally low (less than 15%) across the City, the proportion is higher in central and eastern Lancaster than in Quartz Hill.
The final maps in this series show how environmental pollution is mirrored in the incidence of asthma and cardiovascular disease. It is the goal of this SRTS Master Plan to help reduce both vehicle-related causes and effects of air pollution.
CalEnviroScreen 4.0 Overall Pollution Burden
These maps showcase overall pollution burden scores within a half-mile of project schools using the CalEnviroScreen 4.0 tool. This tool uses environmental, health, and socioeconomic information to produce percentile scores for every community in the State of California, helping identify communities that are most affected by many sources of pollution and where people are especially vulnerable to its effects.
Higher percentile scores indicate higher pollution burdens. Overall pollution burdens are highest east of the SR-14 freeway in central Lancaster, as well as in eastern Lancaster and by Eastside Elementary School.
Asthma
These maps showcase the prevalence of asthma within a half-mile of project schools, using percentile scores determined by the CalEnviroScreen 4.0 tool. This map shows that all of Lancaster and its surrounds have a higher prevalence of asthma than other communities in the State, although locations east of the SR-14 freeway have higher levels of asthma than locations west.
Cardiovascular Disease
These maps showcase the prevalence of cardiovascular disease within a half-mile of project schools, using percentile scores determined by the CalEnviroScreen 4.0 tool. This map shows that nearly all of Lancaster and its surrounds have a higher prevalence of cardiovascular disease than other communities in the State, although areas east of the SR-14 freeway again show considerably higher levels compared to western Lancaster and Quartz Hill.

Project Development Team
A Project Development Team (PDT) was established to manage the day-to-day development of the SRTS Master Plan update, and to oversee the activities, materials, communications, public engagement, and finally the deliverables for the project. The PDT was led by Candice Vander Hyde, Analyst – Community Development, and included staff responsible for engineering, public relations, planning, communications, the SEE AND BE SEEN program, and parks, as well as the consultant team. Over three dozen PDT meetings took place between May 5, 2021, and May 31, 2022.
Stakeholder Advisory Team
The Stakeholder Advisory Team provided leadership and crucial early input into this update of the Safe Routes to School Master Plan. Private schools were also included, as they use the infrastructure that may be improved, and they add to trip-making, whatever mode they choose. Additionally, educational programs emphasizing traffic safety for all and SEE AND BE SEEN materials would be available for public and private schools alike, and for all area residents.
The members of the Stakeholder Advisory Team who have helped ensure that proposed projects and programs have broad school and community support included the following:
Lancaster School District
Eastside Union School District
Westside Union School District
Antelope Valley Union
High School District
Sacred Heart School
Desert Christian School
Antelope Valley Hospital
Antelope Valley Partners for Health
Antelope Valley Schools
Transportation Agency
Antelope Valley Transit Authority
Antelope Valley YMCA
Kaiser Permanente
Lancaster Sunrise Rotary Club
Los Angeles County
Sheriff’s Department
Team Lakays Cycling Club
The City and the consultant
team developed a Community
Engagement Plan (CEP) to:
• Tap the creativity, knowledge, and
intelligence of area residents and
stakeholders;
• Identify community needs related to
active transportation and safe routes to
school, as the City of Lancaster updated its
2016 Safe Routes to School Master Plan.
This update was intended to "refresh”
the plan based on ongoing as well as
emerging needs, and to reflect changes in
existing conditions near schools, in light
of projects that have been built or are
funded or planned. The SRTS Master Plan
update also embodies the City’s maturing
vision for safe and connected multimodal
transportation networks.
The original vision for the CEP had to be
adjusted because of COVID-19 restrictions
on gathering. Ultimately, all engagement
with the community, the stakeholders, and
the schools, was held virtually.
A kickoff meeting was held
virtually on July 20, 2021.

Stakeholder Interviews
In order to gain insight into conditions affecting local school districts, and to support the development of an effective SRTS Master Plan update, the City and the consultant team conducted a series of one-on-one interviews with selected members of the SRTS Stakeholder Advisory Team. These interviews were focused on the school districts but included other stakeholders as well.
The table below summarizes the meetings that were held. Note that the complications stemming from a surge in COVID-19 cases in the area made it challenging to schedule these meetings. Antelope Valley Union High School District staff were unable to meet with the City during this period, as they were overwhelmed with student reentry, COVID tracking and tracing, and other priorities associated with the return to in-person classroom teaching. A decision was reached to delay updating the high schools in the community nonurgent because the pandemic had so impacted the schools’ abilities to address non-urgent needs.
One-on-One Summaries
Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD)
Sgt. Mike Politano explained that Los Angeles County pursues grants and allocates resources to the subregions to conduct specific enforcement activity that are required based on the statistics in any given area. In 2020, Lancaster received more funding than any other area in LA County (neighboring Palmdale was just short of Lancaster)—which means that there are serious traffic violation issues in the Antelope Valley.
Sgt. Politano indicated that the LASD is open to providing pamphlets or resources to support conversations in a positive way to support SRTS outreach, but such efforts must be cleared through LASD’s Community Relations. The City would have to supply any materials, designed to ensure that a message of encouragement for pedestrian and bicycle trips is also given.
Antelope Valley Hospital (AV Hospital)
Staff ran a report specifically related to automobile-pedestrian crash victims showing up at AV Hospital, which showed a fairly constant incidence since 2018.
There were 145 crash victims of all ages in 2018, 148 in 2019, and 125 in 2020. As far as the pediatric population, there were 148, and in 2020 there were 125. Approximately 13 (2018), 15 (2019), and 14 (2020) children for the same three years. These are patients that come to AV’s trauma service, which means they have more severe injuries. A lot of lower-speed low-injury or no-injury cases would not arrive at the hospital.
Antelope Valley Partners for Health (AVPH)
Antelope Valley Partners for Health (AVPH) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization focused on and dedicated to serving the Antelope Valley (AV) community with the vision that all area children and families will have optimal psychosocial, physical, and environmental health. The mission of AVPH is to educate, strengthen, and advocate for the community through services and partnerships, achieving optimal health and quality of life for all people living in the Antelope Valley.14 Approximately 10 years ago, AVPH had been funded to participate robustly in the first Safe Routes to School Plan, and in order to reprise that level of engagement with this important community-based organization as the original SRTS is being updated, the City developed a California 100 Initiative grant application entitled "Great Journeys” for submittal to the The People Lab at UC Berkeley Call for Innovation Projects. The project included facilitated student (and family) groups, empowered to help update the city’s Safe Routes to School program through hands-on, studentled activities. This unified and coordinated "WHOLE OF LANCASTER” approach to increasing walking and biking was intended to improve active transportation mode split and address multiple related problems along the way.
Given that the City was not awarded the grant, and the fact that COVID-19 was still ravaging the community and might have prevented the kind of robust inperson stakeholder engagement that the Great Journeys program anticipated, the interview with AVPH executive staff focused on how to insert at least some of the unique expertise and community knowledge the organization has to offer into the Safe Routes to School Master Plan update.
Fortunately, AVPH has presence at multiple schools. Lancaster School District shares space with AVPH at the Welcome and Wellness Center. Anyone who comes and registers for schools are available to receive AVPH programming and services.
David Pedraza, who will remain as the City’s Safe Routes contact for AVPH, continues to present on relevant topics to assemblies throughout the grade levels.
Lancaster School District Superintendent, Dr. Bowers, is one of the AVPH board members, so there is a strong executive link between these two institutions that can support SRTS needs.
School District Staff
Each of the school district representatives provided insights into their current issues and challenges and identified schools they thought held the most potential for increasing the numbers of students using active transportation modes for their journeys to and from school. Details of the initial Summer 2021 interviews are provided in the school profiles.
The City and the school districts coordinated closely throughout the SRTS Master Plan update process. Interviews with district staff in April 2022 indicated a crossthe-board need for more parent volunteers and more resources to implement the education and encouragement programs recommended in the updated plan.
Although the district representatives were fully in support of the SRTS mission, the schools simply didn’t have the resources to divert to the program. It was Stakeholder Interview

obvious that this was one key reason that previously recommended education and encouragement activities had not been implemented or sustained.
Additionally, because drop-off and pickup periods were universally described as challenging if not chaotic, a proposal by the City to work with districts and individual schools to develop access and circulation plans was met with enthusiasm. Finally, the underutilization of the City’s SEE AND BE SEEN resource was discussed, and all agreed that improved marketing of the program and additional teacher-friendly content would be useful.
Virtual Walk Audits
With the help of School District staff, 28 virtual walk audits were scheduled and conducted with principals, campus supervisors, crossing guards and several parents. The 45-minute sessions utilized the PublicCoordinate interactive mapping tool described below and proved highly effective in quickly identifying problem areas and potential solutions for safety, circulation, and access issues noted. The results of each walk audit are presented in their respective School Profiles.
Citywide Interactive Mapping
(PublicCoordinate)
Using City-provided Geographic Information System (GIS) shapefiles, the consultant team developed a multi-layered series of interactive maps showcasing information such as the 33 project schools (of which 28 were analyzed in detail during the 2021–2022 udpate), the street network, active transportation infrastructure, school attendance zones or enrollment areas, and treatments recommended from the 2016 SRTS plan for each project school, including crossing improvements, new or enhanced bikeways, sidewalks, multipurpose trails, and traffic calming. In addition to displaying information representing existing conditions and 2016 SRTS recommendations, this interactive map was also designed to collect data through the community outreach process. This was accomplished with the objective of understanding and analyzing the interaction of these different elements on school travel and attendance patterns. The consultant team used Kimley-Horn’s interactive mapping software, PublicCoordinate, to provide a sophisticated online interactive process to solicit feedback from the public and project stakeholders.
PublicCoordinate offers enhanced capabilities such as comment input, toggling between multiple project locations and base maps, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) web accessibility, custom branding, survey integration, and more. Its online platform is user-friendly, making it easy for the public and project stakeholders to provide input and visualize what their communities would look like with proposed transit, roadway, active transportation infrastructure, or other improvements. In addition to more than 600 comments recorded during the Virtual Walk Audits, the public at large contributed 83 separate comments from 27 individuals, focusing primarily on infrastructure.
Webinars in English and Spanish were provided on the City’s website. These short tutorials guided users through the steps needed to give comments.
Public Input through the Interactive Map was
Elicited through the City’s website and Social Media
Student Tallies and Parent Surveys
The consultant team updated travel patterns for each project school using the SRTS Tally Sheet, developed by the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center (PBIC) in collaboration with SRTS experts and support from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE). The surveys were conducted on typical weekdays from Tuesday to Thursday at 28 schools in December 2021. This tally sheet utilizes teachers to ask students questions regarding their travel behavior to and from school on that day of the week, reading through all possible choices (walk, bike, school bus, family vehicle, carpool, transit, other) and tallying how many students raise their hand for each mode. Information regarding the weather that day is also tallied to determine any impacts on travel behavior.
The 2016 SRTS Master Plan utilized these same student tally sheets, so information on travel patterns was compared to highlight differences spurring from changes to enrollment area boundaries, infrastructure improvements that have been made, new education or enforcement programs, and other factors. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on school attendance and travel patterns, particularly in regard to mode split, can be observed through this lens, though causality in any changes in travel patterns may be difficult to determine outright.
In early fall 2021, parent surveys15 were disbursed to school districts with the intention that students would bring them home for their parent or guardian to fill out to acquire additional information on student travel behavior. Parent surveys also ask questions regarding:
• The number and age of grade-school children in the home • The distance from school and nearest intersection to the home • The estimated travel time for the student to reach and return home from school • Parent opinion on child walking or biking to/from school and issues affecting their decision to allow or not allow their child to do so • Parent opinion on the benefits and drawbacks of walking or biking to/from school
• Parent educational attainment

IV. Community Engagement | Summary
The first set of 1,135 returned paper surveys came from parents at Westside Union School District. A review of the completed surveys showed that parents were interpreting the questions in very different ways, and thus the responses were not as reliable as needed. However, the 169 responses from Westside Union School District parents to open-ended questions were able to be used. They revealed that parents were concerned about safety, vehicle speeding, crime, weather, distance, and the need for more enforcement of motorists and adult supervision for children walking to school. Sidewalk gaps and lack of buffered bike lanes were also cited as reasons their children did not walk/roll to school.
In an effort to rectify the problem with the quantitative questions, the team developed a Lancaster-specific set of questions using Google Forms, that could be summarized quickly and would be available in multiple languages. Additional questions were included to help tease out the difference between COVID-related reluctance to allow children to walk or roll to school and other factors contributing to lower observed active transportation rates across most schools compared to 2016.
This survey closed on January 31, 2022, along with a shorter version that the City distributed via social media. Even with significant social media and school-based communications, only 88 responses were received. Relevant observations from these respondents are included in their respective school profiles. It is notable that they do align with the Westside Union narrative responses summarized above.
SEE AND BE SEEN:
Evolving and Expanding Active
Transportation Education
& Encouragement
The City of Lancaster established its national award-winning SEE AND BE SEEN Active Transportation Safety and Healthy Living program with the objective of improving bike/ped crash statistics in Lancaster by educating school-age children in active transportation safety to instigate generational behavior change.
The program began in 2019 with a grant from Caltrans’ Office of Traffic Safety, originally focused on the following four safety messages:
Eyes Up, Phone Down
Make Eye Contact
Ride Right in the Bike Lane
Cross Between the Lines
The City held a children’s art contest, with winning artists’ work used for a series of bicycle/pedestrian safety-themed signal cabinet wraps. This effort quickly grew into a multifaceted campaign with 35 wrapped cabinets throughout the City, school outreach education, and a social media campaign.
In 2022, the City leveraged SEE AND BE SEEN’s success and developed an online Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math (STEAM) and Physical Education curriculum in response to the need to convert the City’s STEAM-based in-person assemblies to a distance learning format as a result of the pandemic.
The City worked closely with the local school districts to develop the curriculum and garner educator support
for integrating the lessons into their lesson plans. The curriculum is also accessible online to anyone. Through the lessons, students learn how to utilize active transportation facilities safely, are encouraged to wear bicycle helmets, be active participants in improving their community, and so much more!
Each school year, the curriculum will be updated/advanced even after the City can return to providing in-person assemblies so that educators and parents can integrate the lessons year-round. Feedback from the One-on-One interviews as well as the Virtual Walk Audits indicated that teachers, principals, and other administrative staff need to be kept aware of this evolving City resource—which now hosts community events that support active transportation—and understand how to use it in the classroom.

SEE AND BE SEEN: Partner Events
This group of bicycle enthusiasts and community service-minded citizens and businesses regularly partners with the City to sponsor community-wide programs including a bike repair clinic for K–12 students, community bike rides, the famous Tour de Luke annual charity bike ride, bike path cleanups, and the RE-Cycle bike donation program.
The need for volunteer efforts was
clearly seen during the SRTS Master Plan

its work with this group as well as help
the schools recruit and train parent
volunteers to support SRTS education
and encouragement activities that had
been dormant for many years.

Prioritize School Needs
The City followed a 3-step process
to identify where SRTS solutions
are needed the most.
School prioritization scores for critical SRTS metrics were analyzed to create a composite score for each school
based on the following weighted factors:
56 Rating & Ranking
Schools: Methodology
The City developed a prioritization framework intended first to identify schools in most need, as well as those who might be able to benefit most from targeted strategies (both infrastructure and noninfrastructure). The factors presented below helped the City assess both the needs of each school, as well as their potential to benefit from the implementation of recommended projects or programs. The factors included in this prioritization framework align with the evaluation criteria for many regional, state and national funding programs, including the State of California’s Active Transportation Program.
1. Safety (Composite Score, 35 points maximum)
1A. Pedestrian/Bicycle Crash Data
(8 points maximum)
Safety is measured quantitatively by assessing pedestrian- and bicycle-involved collisions that resulted in injury or fatality within a half-mile of each school.
Collision data for the years 2015 – 2019 was acquired from the UC Berkeley Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS) and summed for each school. This allows for a general understanding of where risk is higher for pedestrians and bicyclists near each school.
This data set is available at https://tims.berkeley.edu/ and is typically required for Caltrans Active Transportation Program (ATP) grants.
Raw numbers of crash data for pedestrians and bicyclists were stratified into quartiles and ranked as follows:
8 points = highest quartile (>75% to 100%)
6 points = third quartile (>50% up to 75%)
4 points = second quartile (>25% up to 50%)
2 points = lowest quartile (0% up to 25%)
A score of 8 represents the highest 25% in terms of number of pedestrians and bicyclists involved in crashes near a school, and 2 represents the lowest 25%, compared to the number of crashes per school among all 28 schools included in the SRTS 2022 update.
1B – Bicycle Network Gaps
(8 points maximum)
The extent of bicycle infrastructure within biking distance of each school was assessed by comparing the proportion of existing and future bike facilities, with the percentage of future bike facilities representing gaps in the existing bike network.
This percentage was determined by using GIS data to sum and compare the lengths of existing and future bike facilities within a half-mile of each school, with data provided by the City of Lancaster and the County of Los Angeles.
Data on bicycle network gaps were stratified into quartiles and rated as follows:
8 points = highest quartile (>75% to 100%)
6 points = third quartile (>50% up to 75%)
4 points = second quartile (>25% up to 50%)
2 points = lowest quartile (0% up to 25%)
A score of 8 represents longer gaps in the bicycle network within biking distance from a school, while a score of 2 represents shorter gaps compared to the average proportion of existing to future planned bike facilities among all 28 schools included in the SRTS 2022 update.
Schools with a higher percentage of gaps in the bike network will be given higher priority than schools with a higher percentage of implemented projects.
The Safe Routes to School Master Plan
update has assessed conditions at 28 elementary
and middle schools in the Lancaster area. The
magnitude of the need for improved safety and
mobility projects, as well as the need for education
and encouragement programs, outstrips the
City of Lancaster’s existing resources. Thus, a
prioritization of schools and projects is required
to identify which projects and programs are most
needed, where they are needed, and the timeline
most appropriate for delivering them to our schools
and neighborhoods.
1C – Sidewalk Gaps (8 points maximum)
The extent of pedestrian infrastructure within walking distance of each school was assessed by determining existing gaps in the sidewalk network along suggested routes to each school. Sidewalk gaps were identified for each school by totaling the length in feet of recommended sidewalk improvements from the 2016 SRTS Master Plan that have not yet been implemented. For schools that were not examined in the 2016 plan, satellite imagery was used to identify and measure gaps in the sidewalk network along roadways within a half-mile of the school.
Data on sidewalk gaps were stratified into quartiles
and ranked as follows.
8 points = highest quartile (>75% to 100%)
6 points = third quartile (>50% up to 75%)
4 points = second quartile (>25% up to 50%)
2 points = lowest quartile (1% up to 25%)
A score of 8 represents longer gaps in the pedestrian network along suggested routes to school, while a score of 2 represents short gaps. For this factor, a score of 0 was also allowed, indicating that no gap exists in the sidewalk network along common routes to and from that school. This reflects the progress the City of Lancaster has made in building out the sidewalk network. 1D – Crossing Needs (8 points maximum)
Progress made toward safer crossings along suggested routes to each school was assessed by examining the proportion of recommended crossing improvements from the 2016 SRTS Master Plan that have been implemented compared to those that have not. Each recommended crossing improvement was determined to be either complete, partially complete, or incomplete through the use of satellite imagery comparisons.
The percentage of incomplete crossing improvement projects recommended for each school were stratified and ranked as follows:
8 points = highest quartile (>75% to 100%)
6 points = third quartile (>50% up to 75%)
4 points = second quartile (>25% up to 50%)
2 points = lowest quartile (0% up to 25%)
Schools with more points, i.e., a lower percentage of implemented crossing improvement projects recommended in the 2016 Plan, will be given higher priority than schools with a higher percentage of implemented projects.
V. SRTS Project & Programmatic Strategies | Step 1: Prioritization Framework 57 Rating & Ranking Schools: Methodology (cont'd)
1E. Community Input
(3 points maximum)
This measure considers public input during the SRTS Master Plan update, as well as virtual walk audits conducted at each school in Fall 2021. These public engagement activities elicited observations, concerns, needs, and ideas from school officials, parents, and community members. School prioritization used the raw number of comments focused on a school, rather than the content of that comment. (The content of the comment was used to identify recommended projects and programs for each school.)
The overall volume of comments regarding a particular school is important to note.
However, a lower maximum number of points was assigned to this factor because the comments didn’t stem from a statistically valid survey.
Total comments were stratified and divided into thirds and assigned ratings of 1, 2, or 3, with 3 representing schools that received higher volumes of comments on safety conditions.
3 points = highest third
2 points = middle third
1 point = lowest third
2. Equity
(30 points maximum)
The need to remedy historic patterns of underinvestment in lower-income communities can be addressed in part by prioritizing schools with higher percentages of students who are eligible for free or reduced-price meals (FRPM) under the National School Lunch Program. These statistics are reported annually for each school and are publicly available on the California Department of Education site.
This metric has been important in qualifying schools for grant funding under Caltrans’ Active Transportation Program (ATP). In previous ATP cycles, schools with at least 75% of students eligible to receive FRPM were deemed to be within disadvantaged communities. Although State of California grant programs may not award points for percentages lower than 75%, the City may be interested to know where additional pockets of need exist, and so a quartile allocation of the percentage of students who were FRPM-eligible in 2020 – 2021 was used to rank schools, as follows:
30 points = highest quartile (>75% to 100%)
22.5 points = third quartile (>50% up to 75%)
15 points = second quartile (>25% up to 50%)
7.5 points = lowest quartile (0% up to 25%)
Data available at the California Department of Education website https://www.cde.ca.gov/ds/ad/filessp.asp.
3. Student Mode Share
(Composite score, 25 points maximum)
Based on the 2021 Student Tallies conducted by all 28 schools included in this update, schools are ranked low, medium, and high, for students walking, bicycling, or taking "other” active transportation modes to or from school. "Other” could include in-line skates, scooters, skateboards, and mobility assistance devices such as wheelchairs.
This data cuts both ways. It can indicate the relative pedestrian/bicycle-friendliness of the area surrounding a school, and it can also indicate a denser residential neighborhood near the school. This could mean that investments here would "pay off” with significant numbers of new students choosing to walk, bike, skate, scoot, or roll to school.
On the other hand, a low rating here could indicate anything from real or perceived safety risks to a more rural, low-density neighborhood that is not conducive to active transportation. A low percentage of students walking or rolling to school could point to the need for increased safety or more robust encouragement and education programs for students and their families.
For both walking and bicycling (factors 3A and 3B, respectively), schools were ranked as shown below, using natural breaks in the 2021 Student Tallies. Schools could receive 10 points maximum for walking and biking, for a total of 20 points for participation in those modes. 2 = 0% to 4% of students walk (or bike)
5 = 5% to 10% of students walk (or bike)
10 = 11% to 19% of students walk (or bike)
For "other" modes (factor 3C), which were not specified, but could include skateboarding, in-line or roller skates, scooters, or mobility assistance devices, the schools were ranked as follows, for a maximum of 5 points:
0 = no response
5 = any response above zero
In future year analyses, we can include a metric that compares year over year, and thus shows areas of improvement, or needed improvement to help guide further project and program implementation.
4. Student Density
(10 points maximum)
Student density within a half-mile of each school tells us how big our "universe” of potential student walkers, bicyclists, rollers, skaters, and scooters is. This will help identify appropriate programs for those schools. For this analysis, student density was defined as the number of people under age 18 per square mile within a half-mile radius of each school.
Population data by age was acquired from the US Census Bureau’s 2015 – 2019 5-Year American Community Survey (ACS) at the census block group (CBG) level and analyzed using a Geographic Information System. To estimate where the population within each CBG resides, the acreage of residential land uses within each CBG was used as a proxy for population, with land use data acquired from the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG).
For each CBG, the proportion of residential land use that fell within a half-mile buffer of each school was compared against the proportion that did not. That same proportion was then applied to the total population of the CBG to estimate the population that fell within a half-mile of each school. The percentage of population under age 18 within each CBG was then applied to calculate the population under age 18 within each school’s half-mile radius. This number was then summed among all the CBGs that fell within each school’s half-mile radius and divided by the area within a half-mile radius of each school, 0.7854 square miles.
Student density percentages were stratified into quintiles and ranked as follows:
10 points = highest quintile
8 points = fourth quintile
6 points = third quintile
4 points = second quintile
2 points = first quintile

Strategies to be Implemented
by the City of Lancaster
ENGINEERING STRATEGY #1
Signage & Markings
Provide consistent signage and markings around all schools per Part 7—Traffic Control for School Areas of the latest edition of the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD).
ENGINEERING STRATEGY #2
Crosswalks
Provide high-visibility continental crosswalks along street crossings on routes to school to improve safety for the most vulnerable road users.
ENGINEERING STRATEGY #3
Walkways / Paths
Design any new or reconstructed sidewalk/walkway to be a minimum of eight feet wide to accommodate groups walking together. Shared paths should be a minimum of 11 feet wide to accommodate both walking and biking per FHWA School Access guidelines.
ENGINEERING STRATEGY #4
Curb Extensions
Incorporate curb extensions on neighborhood streets in accordance with City’s Traffic Calming Policy. Curb extensions at intersections shorten pedestrian crossing distance, increase the visibility of pedestrians and reduce the crossing pedestrian’s exposure to vehicle conflict. In addition, they serve to visually and physically narrow roadways thereby slowing vehicle speeds as well as reducing the likelihood of fast turns around corners.
ENGINEERING STRATEGY #5
Traffic Calming
Incorporate speed humps or speed tables on neighborhood streets in accordance with the City’s Traffic Calming Policy. Speed humps are very effective in reducing speeds, especially when placed in series over a length of roadway rather than singly. This strategy can be used in conjunction with a raised crosswalk, where applicable. A raised crosswalk acts like a speed hump or table designed as a pedestrian crossing—slowing vehicle speeds and enhancing pedestrian safety.
ENGINEERING STRATEGY #6
Cul-de-Sac Access
Open cul-de-sacs in the vicinity of the school to accommodate pedestrians’ movement between the closed street system and desired destinations, including neighborhood schools (also in alignment with City Design Guidelines).

62 V. SRTS Project & Programmatic Strategies | Step 2: Menu of Best Strategies Why aren’t engineering
solutions enough?
As we all know, drivers can ignore speed limits, run red lights or stop signs, and rush through school zones recklessly. Parents can double-park and disregard crossing guards’ directions. Students can dart through moving traffic to beat the bell or fail to use marked crosswalks. Crashes can and do happen. Students can and do get hit.
What else can we do? No single approach or strategy is likely to address all the issues that account for low levels of active transportation trips, and all schools will need to select their own blend of strategies and adapt them to their own circumstances. But at some point, it takes all of us working together to reap the benefits of good infrastructure and make it safe for our kids to get to school, while encouraging safe and healthy walking and rolling where possible. This section identifies nonengineering strategies that relate to the other 6 `E’s.
A successful SRTS program requires using strategies that encompass multiple approaches from the 7 `E’s of Safe Routes to School. Lancaster’s definitions of the 7 `E’s were presented earlier, and are summarized below:
• ENGINEERING (evidence-based improvements to street and sidewalk design, parking lots, and the physical infrastructure or layout on and off campus),
• EDUCATION (providing information and academic lessons, and promoting awareness of the benefits of active transportation as well as proper behaviors by people driving, walking, and biking), • ENCOURAGEMENT (programmed and funded events and activities to inspire students to walk, bike, skate, scoot, and roll), • ENGAGEMENT (community engagement that helps implement the SRTS Master Plan and broadens its reach beyond the school campus to meet intergenerational needs for active transportation support), • EQUITY (ensuring all students benefit from, and no groups are negatively affected by, the infrastructure, policies, and programs), • ENFORCEMENT (ensuring that motorists, pedestrians, and bicyclists obey the rules of the road), and
• EVALUATION (periodically assessing program achievements, making needed changes, and ensuring the Master Plan retains its relevance as a "living document”).

Strategies
(the Other 6 'E's)
Engineering strategies help calm traffic and
create safe environments—but we need people
to realize the full potential.
In Fall 2021, student tallies from Lancaster School District, Westside Union School District, and Eastside Union School District showed that nearly 80% of all students used family cars to arrive at and depart from the 28 schools surveyed. Virtual walk audits and interviews with school and district staff revealed that many of the schools experienced higher percentages of students engaged in active transportation prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.
As this SRTS Master Plan was being prepared in 2021 – 2022, the pandemic, as well as fairly widespread concern about crime, was still causing high traffic volumes relative to active transportation modes, compounded in many cases by a lack of organized student drop-off and pick-up zones and enforced procedures. These traffic snarls, driver behavior, and confusion near drop-off/ pick-up spots make parents hesitate to allow their children to walk and bike – which results in even more cars at schools.
The other 6 'E's provide support for how
people interact with the SRTS recommended
engineering solutions
The engineering solutions presented earlier are essential and provide the physical framework for safe mobility across all transportation modes. The assortment of both tried-and-true and newly developed, evidence-based traffic calming solutions, LED warning lights and visible crosswalk strategies are wonderfully effective when appropriately applied. But, without support, roadway projects and engineered solutions are not sufficient to ensure that every Lancaster child can reach school safely, whether they walk, bike, skate, scoot, roll, or ride in a car or a school bus.
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #2
Implement School
Access & Circulation Plans
Prioritize safe traffic circulation, separating the different modes of travel and minimizing crossings, when designing new school sites or redeveloping existing ones, in order to make arrival and dismissal safe and pleasant from the start.
Consider landscaping, shade elements such as canopies, art features, and other ways to make walkways attractive and welcoming for people on foot, to encourage more student walking and bicycling.
The School On-Site Design guidance from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) provides brief, clear information on engineering strategies to improve school campuses for students walking and bicycling.
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #3
Market the Access & Circulation Plan
Clearly communicate the arrival and dismissal protocols through informational materials and messaging distributed to families and students multiple times a year—when school starts, via the beginning of year paperwork, at the start of a new term, and periodically throughout the year as needed. This can be accomplished through the school website, PTA meeting presentations, email reminders, flyers, school newsletters (both electronic and paper), signs on campus, and through school staff.

"Having a circulation plan would be one of the biggest, most helpful things, and we’d need help from the City.”(School District Staff) Non-Engineering Strategies (the Other 6 'E's) - (Cont'd) The SRTS programs and operational strategies identified below are divided into three sections, depending on whether they would be implemented primarily by schools, school
districts, or the City of Lancaster.
Further, while some strategies can be applied at a systems level (either by the City or a school district), others must be more targeted. In those cases, each school would need to employ specific approaches customized for its particular site configuration, adjacent street network, and surrounding neighborhood.
In all cases, the need for consistent cooperation, communication, and collaboration is identified as its own strategy. This coordination will ensure that the good ideas in this SRTS Master Plan update actually get implemented and that it keeps current with changing community needs.
Strategies Implemented
by Schools
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #1
Create School Access & Circulation Plans
Create a formal document that provides specific details regarding anticipated paths of travel for each mode. Separating the different modes of travel (cars, buses, people walking, people biking) through engineering and operational strategies is crucial in reducing conflicts in school zones and improving safety and comfort for everyone.
Along with PTAs/PTOs and surrounding community groups, establish a partnership with City Staff (Public Works/Community Development) in order to develop this circulation plan. This clear plan, showing where and how to drop off/pick up, should be provided to parents and fully explained.
Without a clear plan, unsafe behaviors such as double parking, unsafe U-turns, and students walking between cars can reduce student safety, impact access to local neighborhoods, and impede mobility for through traffic that is not destined to schools.
Left An example of on-street drop-off. Circulation plan shows parent drop-off is only on the north side of the school, separate from bus loading. The parking lot is closed to families. There are designated walkways outside of the drop-off areas for students to walk.

SRTS Project & Programmatic Strategies | Step 2: Menu of Best Strategies – People Strategies 64 Strategies Implemented by Schools (Cont'd)
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #4
Walking School Buses/Remote Parking
Encourage the creation of walking
school buses to bring several students
who live in the same area to school
together in one group OR from a remote
drop-off/pick-up location. A remote
drop-off site may be a park, a parking
lot, a church, or anywhere else where
students can be easily dropped off, can
safely congregate, and can follow a
relatively safe route to the school. Once
children are dropped off, they may be
accompanied to school by a school
bus driver, teacher, or adult volunteer,
or may walk on their own, depending on their age and how the program is structured. Besides reducing traffic congestion at the school campus, remote dropoff programs provide physical activity and community-building benefits.
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #5
Test, Promote and Utilize
Existing and New
SEE AND BE SEEN Lesson Plans
With District and City support, school principals will inform teachers of the SEE AND BE SEEN lesson plans available for their use and encourage them to take advantage of this SRTS-themed
classroom resource. Schools are
asked to identify teachers to serve
as "beta testers" for existing and
new material, to allow the City to
improve them, as appropriate.
V. SRTS Project & Programmatic Strategies | Step 2: Menu of Best Strategies – People Strategies PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #6
Annual Student Tallies
With District and City support, schools will take the lead to conduct student tallies and parent/guardian surveys each Fall, and collect insights and observations to assess SRTS progress.
OPERATIONAL STRATEGY #1
Staggered Dismissals
Stagger student dismissals, when possible. Dismissal times can be staggered by grade to reduce the number of parents picking up at once. Dismissal times can also be staggered by mode of
travel to reduce conflicts between
the different modes. If you are
staggering dismissal by mode of
travel, walkers and bicyclists should
always be dismissed first as to not
discourage walking and biking.
OPERATIONAL
STRATEGY #2
"We used to do walking school buses, but the problem is getting parents involved. Our campus supervisors have
to stay on campus, or at their designated crosswalk, and can’t lead a walking school bus. And we'd still need
school buy-in, because someone has to take point from
the school side, too.” (School District Staff)
An example of walking school bus.

Decentralize School Entries/Exits
Locate multiple student entry/exits to/from the school campus, where possible.
OPERATIONAL STRATEGY #3
Wayfinding
Make campus paths for walking and bicycles highly recognizable and visible for children. Include landscaping and informational or interactive stations, if feasible.
OPERATIONAL STRATEGY #4
Bike Access, Racks/Lockers
Provide easy and direct access to bike parking on school campus without requiring students biking to dismount until they reach the bike racks. Provide secure bike parking.
OPERATIONAL STRATEGY #5
Designated Drop-off/Pick-Up Areas
Clearly designate drop-off/pick-up areas. Vehicles should move through the dropoff/pick-up areas such that students should be able to enter and exit directly to the sidewalk without having to walk around or between cars. This should also be done for bus loading and unloading. Drop-off/pick-up areas should have all or most vehicles exit by making a right turn, avoiding left turns that require cutting over a lane of traffic.
65 "We can do announcements and video commercials. It’s a little easier to do assemblies in the elementary schools, in terms of impacts to the instructional day. Middle schools have more protected time devoted to mandated instruction minutes." (School District Staff)
Strategies Implemented
by School Districts
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #1
Crossing Guard Policy & Funding
Develop school board policies to ensure that all crossing guard needs are funded and that all positions are filled. Include this as a priority in the school budgeting process. Provide adequate training and support to crossing guards.
Introduce the guards to the student body and parents at the beginning of each academic year, to elicit respect for and understanding of the important role of crossing guards in ensuring safety and civility during the arrival/dismissal periods.
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #2
District SRTS Calendar
Work with the City and, if funded, the CBO SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator (see next page) to develop a fun and varied calendar of active transportation events with at least two lunchtime assemblies per school, per year, and a range of ongoing activities at each school. Events and activities will be led by the SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator, with help from SRTS Interns (if funded), with planned transition to parent volunteers. Additional support would come from district policies, and community and student involvement, especially as PTOs and PTAs are beginning to be reestablished "in-person” as the pandemic wanes. The implementation of this strategy must be consistent with District academic priorities and recognize state-mandated instructional time requirements.
Although each school district will have its own
preferences and ideas, the list below represents
a range of activities for consideration.
• Back-to-School Back-to-Safety Program
– Safe Driving Pledge Campaign (for parents and guardians) – Safe Passages Programs
– Intro to SRTS and the 7 `E’s
– Maps of suggested routes, circulation plans and drop-off/pick-up policy – Introduction to safe walking and rolling
– Introduction to the school’s crossing guards
and volunteers
– Fun activity, reflector or another incentive,
and first safety challenge event
• Bike and pedestrian skills and safety rodeos
• Bike Repair/Helmet Fitting Clinics
• School assemblies on healthy living, Vision Zero, the joy of walking, biking, rolling
• Walking school buses and bike trains—monthly or more
• Family Fun Days, Scavenger Hunts, RE-Cycle Bike Donation Program, and Repair Clinics
• Student Active Transportation Clubs
• Selfies with a Message (downloadable signs that promote safety and spirit, for use on social media)
• Mileage tracking: Monthly incentives and annual prizes for individuals and/or schools or classes that meet specified walking and rolling goals, appropriate for each age group and school
• Celebrate National and International
Walk, Bike and & Roll to School Days,
Bike-to-School Days, Earth Day
"We’ve just restarted the PTA after the shutdown for COVID.
Fall 2022 could offer an opportunity to attract some parent volunteers for SRTS activities." (School District Staff) For more information, visit https://www.walkbiketoschool.org/ An example of an event organized by the San Francisco (SF) SRTS Partnership for SF Union School District.
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #3
K-12 Active Transportation
Curriculum
Work with curricula development staff and individual schools to inform principals and teachers about the K–12 active transportation safety and healthy living education program resources at SEE AND BE SEEN. Develop targets for the integration of modules into classroom learning. Ensure that teachers understand how to use this resource. Coordinate with the City to develop ideas for new learning modules.
"We are more likely to use SEE AND BE SEEN lesson plans based on 15–20-minute videos, and that come packaged with talking points to make it easier for our hard-working teachers." (School District Staff)

PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #4
District Support for School
Circulation Plans
Work with schools to prioritize safe traffic circulation, separating the different modes of travel, when designing new school sites or redeveloping existing school sites, in order to make arrival and dismissal safe and pleasant from the start. District offices can provide a unifying vision and sufficient resources for individual schools to create and implement effective plans.
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #5
Regular Stakeholder Coordination
Conduct quarterly or semiannual meetings with schools and the City to understand and relay ongoing operational concerns about the trip to/from schools.
"So many of our parents are working hard, sometimes
at two jobs, to feed their children and pay the rent. We do see a lot of parents at open house events, or Back to School night, but it’s unrealistic for many of them to volunteer on an ongoing basis. At the end of the day, our school staff is exhausted, and our parents are in the same boat." (School District Staff) Strategies Implemented
by the City of Lancaster
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #1
Funding Pursuits
As appropriate, expand the pursuit of interagency and public/private collaboration as well as regional, state, and federal grant opportunities to provide resources needed to implement City-led strategies described in the SRTS Master Plan. Use the school prioritization framework to identify groups of schools that can share the benefits of corridor-level strategies, which can be attractive to funders.
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #2
Fully Utilize SEE AND BE SEEN
The City’s SEE AND BE SEEN program provides a popular and brand-recognized umbrella under which SRTS school-based activities, as well as citywide communitybased activities, resources, and events, can be housed. Programmatic Strategy #2 includes a number of recommended elements, as described below. o Programmatic Strategy #2-A
CBO SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator
Seek funding to recruit and retain a qualified local Community Based Organization (CBO) to serve as a permanent SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator. The CBO SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator would promote and implement active transportation at Lancaster school campuses with the most potential for sustaining or increasing the number of students walking, biking, skating, scooting, and rolling to school. The CBO would catalyze all City initiatives in support of SRTS as well as community-wide active transportation activities and events. This position would oversee the SRTS Interns, and ultimately recruit, train and support parent volunteers, as described in Strategy #2-B, below. The CBO would coordinate with school districts to ensure that the SEE AND BE SEEN program provided a useful benefit, and does not create an additional unstaffed burden at the schools. "Program sustainability is key. How do we sustain the program if it is started with temporary funding?" (School District Staff) o Programmatic Strategy #2-B
SRTS Intern-to-Parent Volunteer Transition Program
Develop and pursue funding to implement a long-term program to recruit and train a staff of paid interns to support the schools in expanding active transportation activities during arrival and dismissal periods. Because school crossing guards are committed to their position, they are not available to support education and encouragement activities such as walking school buses or bicycle trains. The interns could perhaps be drawn from local college students, with schedules that could accommodate the split-shift hours required.
o Programmatic Strategy #2-C
SRTS/Active Transportation Calendar
The City’s CBO SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator would maintain an online calendar of community-based and school-focused events.
Schools could link to this calendar, and in some cases, deploy the SRTS Interns (and eventually the parent volunteers) to help advertise, champion, or implement activities.
o Programmatic Strategy #2-D
SEE AND BE SEEN Curriculum Expansion
Leverage the City’s success, experience, and branding associated with the SEE AND BE SEEN16 program, by funding and implementing expanded course offerings and driving more traffic to the program website. Initiate more STEAM learning modules, and physical education and community events, to maintain interest in active transportation. Pursuant to feedback from the schools, new learning modules would be "plug-and-play” from the teacher’s perspective. Video instruction would be 15 to 20 minutes long, and would be accompanied by lesson plans, talking points, and handouts, to make it easy for teachers to use. To ensure acceptance by teachers, and improve the final product, the SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator would work with schools to identify a group of teachers to beta test the lessons. This would also help market the existing and new courses to increase utilization.

SRTS Project & Programmatic Strategies | Step 2: Menu of Best Strategies – People Strategies 16 https://www.cityoflancasterca.org/our-city/departments-services/developmentservices/city-engineering/traffic-engineering/see-and-be-seen 67 “Even if the City provided paid interns to the schools, someone would have to supervise them, and we’d need a school contact as well. It’s always a matter of funding, staffing, and our academic priorities. As it is, our principals are often serving as crossing guards when a campus supervisor is out." (School District Staff)
Strategies Implemented by the City of Lancaster (cont'd) PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #3
Integrate School Access
& Circulation Plan
Actively partner with schools/school districts in order to develop school access and circulation plans for each school site that accommodates larger travel patterns and city-wide needs, while prioritizing active transportation near school campuses. Begin with District-level consultations to schedule field observations and/or workshops at hot-spot areas of need.
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #4
Establish a Lancaster
Bike/Ped Coalition
Establish a Lancaster Bike/Ped Coalition to advance active transportation in schools and throughout Lancaster.
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #5
Regular Stakeholder
Coordination
Conduct quarterly or semi-annual meetings with schools and districts to understand ongoing operational concerns around schools. “There are 50 deputies at the Lancaster station, and they’re pulling deputies for double duty at night. School enforcement is not a priority for them, but we need it. Some of our parents are great, but others honk, ignore the crossing guards, park in the desert, or double park in neighborhoods and send their kids across the road anywhere. It’s dangerous." (School District Staff)
V. SRTS Project & Programmatic Strategies | Step 2: Menu of Best Strategies – People Strategies PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #6
Enforcement
Coordinate with Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department to identify locations and establish an effective frequency for enforcement to reinforce the rules promoting safe behavior by drivers. Consider a "progressive ticketing program" that educates and raises awareness of traffic rules and safety needs, then issues warnings, and only as a last resort issues citations. If possible, position City vans to observe and make citations at school traffic scofflaw hot spots if the Sheriff's Department is not available.
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #7
Incorporate High Schools into SRTS
Identify funding sources and collaborate with the City’s five public high schools to identify needs and appropriate strategies for each. The impacts of the pandemic precluded completion of the high school assessments during the 2021–2022 plan update.
PROGRAMMATIC STRATEGY #8
Evaluation
Compile crash data, coordinate with school districts to gather student tallies each year and collect insights and observations to assess SRTS progress.
Secure funding to update sections of the plan, such as choosing several schools to analyze in more detail or selecting strategies to implement or add.
Include public engagement to ensure the City has an updated understanding of community needs.

Approach to Implementation
Sustained and Sustainable Implementation of
Lancaster's SRTS Master Plan
Between May 2021 and July 2022, the City, the stakeholders, and the communities around each school have put hard work into updating the original 2016 SRTS Master Plan. In order to move the resulting recommendations and good ideas into new sidewalks, upgraded curb ramps, safer crosswalks, lower-stress roadways and bike lanes, and to deliver the effective education and encouragement programs that get us all moving together safely, there are several actions that must take place.
This section outlines an overall approach to implementation and identifies a series of next steps for consideration. These actions are required to maintain and expand public engagement that is needed to refine the concept-level projects in this Master Plan, build community awareness and support for SRTS projects and programs, develop projects through final design, find funding, and deepen and expand the range of educational opportunities and community events that promote walking and rolling throughout Lancaster.
Vision Zero Goals Link the SRTS Master Plan
to Lancaster's Local Road Safety Plan
This SRTS Master Plan is intended to increase Lancaster students’ physical activity and improve their health and academic achievement by encouraging safe walking, biking, skating, scooting, or rolling to school. The emphasis on safe active transportation is underscored by the fact that safety was listed as the number one goal by the members of the SRTS Stakeholder Advisory Team in the summer of 2021, at the initiation of this update.
Thus, the Master Plan recognizes and incorporates by reference the City of Lancaster’s Vision Zero Resolution goal to eliminate traffic deaths and severe injuries in the City by 2050. Additionally, this Plan incorporates by reference the systematic approach to safety, and the complete street development approach that is embodied in the City’s adopted Local Road Safety Plan. These three documents can be viewed together as a way to both broaden and focus the safety-specific goals of the SRTS Master Plan, aided by the implementation guidance provided by the LRSP. The SRTS prioritization framework is in alignment with the importance assigned to equity, safety, costefficiency and meaningful outcomes within all City plans and policies.
Integration into City Programs and Projects
As an adopted City of Lancaster planning document, the SRTS Master Plan, as updated, serves as a reference authority for those conducting the regular business of the City. This includes everything from planning to capital investments, to park programs and community support services. To a great extent, the policy shift to Complete Streets and a Vision Zero safety approach toward sustainable transportation and placemaking has already occurred in Lancaster. However, the SRTS Master Plan provides specific recommendations to improve safe active transportation connections to schools, and as a "living document,” it will continue to provide the venue for improving walk and roll trips to school.
The City can also leverage its experience with and the success of projects such as The BLVD, and the soon-to-be-completed walkable Medical Main Street as good examples of multimodal nodes from which active transportation strategies can expand, or to which they can connect. Additional nodes at the residential neighborhood level, such as the connected sidewalks and bike lanes included in the 5th Street Corridor School Connections project (Lancaster’s Cycle 6 ATP grant application that includes infrastructure improvements at El Dorado Elementary School, Linda Verde K-8 Dual Language School, and Piute Middle School), can be identified using the SRTS Prioritization Framework and set of recommended strategies.
First Wave Actions, Activities,
Projects, and Programs
Although the following proposals depend on funding, the City is committed to vigorously pursuing funding that may be available within existing City resources and seeking additional discretionary and/or formula transportation funding to ensure that these recommendations are executed as soon as possible. The City's aspirational goal is to have the following proposals implemented within the first three years following City Council approval of this Master Plan update.
Establish a Citywide Bike/Ped Coalition
The Master Plan recommends the creation of a long-term advisory body consisting of active transportation advocates and stakeholders, who will champion active transportation in schools and throughout Lancaster, in alignment with the City's Vision Zero goals.
Fund and Select a CBO-Led SRTS/Active
Transportation Coordinator
Based on stakeholder feedback, and the obvious need for consistent and coordinated SRTS program leadership, the City will seek funding to engage a local CBO to "Refresh, Rebuild, Recruit, Sustain” the noninfrastructure elements of the SRTS Master Plan. The primary responsibilities of the SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator will be to:
• Develop, market, and conduct ongoing school-based and community-wide educational and encouragement campaigns, initiatives, and activities. • Use accessible language, especially for Lancaster's significant Spanish-speaking population, and develop culturally relevant programming to effectively encourage safe walking and rolling throughout the city's diverse communities. • Funnel new content (in English and Spanish) to City’s SRTS & S&BS websites to help keep these websites current and engaging.
• Recruit, train, and support parent volunteers to help schools implement ongoing and intermittent active transportation activities.
• Collaborate with all agency and community stakeholders to ensure that the SRTS continues to meet Lancaster’s needs as they change and evolve.

TO SCHOOL
First Wave Actions, Activities, Projects, and Programs (Cont'd) Develop and Market New
SEE & BE SEEN Courses
• The City and the SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator will seek funding for a curriculum specialist to update and expand the educational offerings (for digital self-learning and school classroom use) under the SEE AND BE SEEN umbrella.
• The SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator will work with teachers at selected schools to "beta test” the new lessons, to ensure ease of use and relevance, and enlist teachers to get the word out about the new materials.
Conduct a School Safety
& Access Plan – Pilot Program
Lancaster Safe School Access & Circulation Plan Pilot Program will engage parents and communities to design, test, and implement multimodal school access and circulation plans that prioritize safety and bring balance to motorized and nonmotorized trips to school, especially during chaotic arrival and dismissal periods. The proposed template, which brings the City together with communities as co-designers, will be refined through the Pilot Program, and then applied throughout Lancaster to detangle traffic and improve safety for motorists, walkers, and bikers.
If funding is available, Safe School Access & Circulation Plans will be developed for all Lancaster schools that request one. Additionally, the feasibility assessment process will be used to identify cost-effective safety and access projects needed to make each plan work. For example, if a new crosswalk is needed to implement a change in school access, as identified during the development of an Access & Circulation Plan, then funding for that needed project will be pursued as part of any package designed to execute the Plan.
Pursue Funding for Infrastructure
Projects in the Queue
Some projects or groups of projects have been developed and advanced for funding pursuits. This includes the 5th Street Corridor School Connections Project, which provides immediate infrastructure benefits to three Lancaster School District campuses in a disadvantaged community, prioritized based on safety, equity, and optimal active transportation potential. With most grant programs forced to leave many high-scoring, valuable projects unfunded, the City may have to submit its projects more than once, and to more than one grant program, to obtain needed funding.
SRTS Update – Next Steps
The 2021-2022 work on the SRTS Master Plan accomplished many of the Stakeholder Advisory Team's goals for the update. Important work remains, however. This section describes ongoing and time-limited activities needed to ensure that this Master Plan is as complete as possible and that it remains relevant to public concerns and the needs of Lancaster's school children and their families.
Include and Integrate Lancaster’s
High Schools into the SRTS
While the projects and programs recommended in this Master Plan for the 28 elementary and middle schools are screened for advancement to funding and implementation, the City will coordinate with the five Antelope Valley Union High Schools to determine how and when to integrate them into the Master Plan.
It is recommended that in Fall 2022 Student Tallies and Parent Surveys at the five high school campuses be conducted, to establish a baseline as more robust engagement with the high schools proceeds. Fortunately, because high school enrollment boundaries are larger than elementary or middle school boundaries, any project developed for an elementary or middle school within a high school enrollment area will benefit that high school, as well. However, additional work will be needed to identify specific programs and strategies that would be effective in improving safety and mobility for older teens who can or want to walk or roll to school during their high school years.
Ongoing Public Engagement
The City of Lancaster commits itself to ongoing engagement with the public at large, as well as school neighborhoods, to understand active transportation needs and spark interest and ideas that address current or emerging challenges. Among the ways that public engagement will occur (in both English and Spanish) are:
1. SRTS Master Plan Website & SEE AND BE SEEN Website:
The City will continue hosting and regularly updating information on SEE AND BE SEEN’s educational and encouragement activities and the SRTS Master Plan website itself.
2. PublicCoordinate Interactive Mapping: The City will maintain and monitor this tool that was so useful in gathering public input that helped shape the recommendations in this SRTS Master Plan update. That tool is on the City’s website at: https://app.publiccoordinate.com/#/projects/ lancastersrtsrefresh/map
3. Social media pop surveys: The City will develop and conduct brief public surveys as active transportation or SRTS issues arise.
VI. Implementation Plan & Next Steps | A Comprehensive Citywide Approach to SRTS Implementation 71 SRTS Master Plan
SAFE ROUTES
TO SCHOOL
4. Develop SRTS Content: The City will develop new content regarding SRTS implementation, school-based or community-based activities, and public engagement opportunities that can be communicated via its quarterly newsletter as well as through school district e-letters.
5. Project-related public engagement: As appropriate, the City will engage with communities near proposed SRTS projects to provide meaningful opportunities for the public to shape those projects to suit neighborhood desires and needs. These opportunities for input during project refinement will be built into project development whenever possible and will be supported by the coordination function of the proposed SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator.
Project Feasibility Assessment:
Screening, Sorting, Scoring
Projects and active transportation strategies recommended for the 28 campuses included in the School Profiles [https://www.cityoflancasterca.org/ our-city/departments-services/development-services/city-engineering/trafficengineering/safe-routes-to-school-master-plan] have been developed to the "planning level” or "conceptual level” of project development. As discussed above, the City intends to bring the five high schools up to that same planning level of development, as soon as possible. A "planning level" project means that they represent best practice strategies for the surrounding conditions, safety concerns, and mobility and access needs, and are thus appropriate for where they are recommended. However, there could be local implementation issues that might add to project cost, time to construct, or other factors that add to project complexity. These would be discovered only upon further detailed design work.
A first step toward advancing recommended projects for funding pursuits is to complete a level of preliminary design and field work necessary to identify these issues. This screening, sorting, and scoring, would produce one set of projects that is ready to advance to 30% design, preliminary cost estimating, and targeted funding pursuits, including local funding through the City’s Capital Investment Program. These green-lighted projects would then advance into a project development pipeline that ensures the City always has projects that are sufficiently developed to have gained local support and be more competitive in discretionary grant programs.
Projects that reveal potential problems upon initial screening could then be redesigned and/or costs for such items as additional stormwater infrastructure, right-of-way acquisition, or supplementary environmental or technical studies could be identified and programmed.
Additionally, a feasibility assessment can focus on one or more desired outcomes. For example, a feasibility assessment that would screen for lowercost, high-impact projects needed to implement the proposed safe school access and circulation plans could be used to identify and progress these projects so that they could be included in various federal, state, and local grant program applications.
Seek Planning Grants and Funding to Explore
and Develop Additional SRTS Tools
There are always new ideas and strategies in the world of active transportation.
As these emerge, the City will seek funding to explore them, as appropriate for Lancaster’s needs.
Some strategies that may not be specifically included in the recommended projects and programs may nonetheless be beneficial for Lancaster. For example, through its participation in the annual Community Bike Repair and Donation program, the City is aware that many Lancaster families would allow their children to bike to school but lack bicycles and/or helmets. Potential bikesharing programs, or e-bikes to connect communities across longer corridors or for use in bike commuting, could be investigated for deployment in Lancaster.
Additionally, quick-build projects and demonstration projects can be funded through federal, state and regional grants and mini-grants that offer communities an opportunity to test out a new strategy such as traffic-calming chicanes (alternating bulbouts that slow traffic in residential areas) or crosswalks using artistic pavement or landscaped/hardscaped pedestrian refuges that reflect local character and make walking or rolling more fun.

Keeping it "LIVE”—
Evaluation and Evolution
The original vision for this SRTS Master Plan update was to "refresh” the 2016 Plan and keep it fresh going into the future. Rather than prepare a static document that sits on a shelf (or is warehoused on a website) the idea here was to create a living document that would provide ongoing value and direction for the community.
In this regard, evaluation of SRTS programs and progress, which is one of the `E’s that gets less attention than it deserves, is critically important. Evaluation keeps us on track toward our mode shift and safety goals and alerts us to needed changes. It also keeps schools and the City accountable to our neighborhoods. It asks these important questions:
Are we doing what we promised?
Is what we promised still what the
community needs and wants?
Is what we delivered working as intended?
Performance Measures
You Can Count On
It is recommended that the following evaluation performance measures, tools, and strategies include the following, be compiled in regular progress update prepared by the (proposed) SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator, and published on the City's website:
• Active Transportation Mode Share — Schools will conduct Student Tallies each Fall, and the City (or the SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator) will collect, compile, and post results on the SRTS website the SRTS Master Plan update established Fall 2021 baseline data at all elementary and middle schools in Lancaster. Ongoing program evaluation will include a comparison of year-over-year performance at each school as well as an assessment of notable changes at schools where SRTS programs have been implemented vs. those where implementation has been delayed or less robust.
• Community-wide and Parent Surveys — year-over-year analysis.
The survey instrument will be customized for Lancaster's program and will elicit awareness of programs, willingness to permit students to walk/roll to school, interest in volunteering, and support for programs. • Safety Awareness and Behavior — Periodic assessment of the incidence of traffic violations near schools. A crash analysis and interviews with crossing guards and campus supervisors will help identify the impacts of education and enforcement elements of the program. The analysis will include motorist behavior (parents as well as through-traffic) and student behavior. Are people becoming more considerate, aware, and cautious as they travel to or near our schools? In addition, student safety awareness will be assessed periodically through post-event surveys and school observations.
• Utilization of SEE AND BE SEEN webinars
(in and outside of classrooms)
o To make sure lessons are engaging and effective, post-event surveys to assess student absorption and understanding of previous material. o Education will include hands-on events (bike rodeos, walking safety instruction during physical education classes) respecting multiple learning styles (visual, aural, kinetic). Post-event surveys will determine what learning or skills were internalized, and what needs to be revisited next time. o Utilization means that SEE AND BE SEEN web courses and collateral materials must be easy for teachers to use. The SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator will establish a core of teacher beta testers to provide ongoing feedback.
• The Pep Factor
o Volunteer Roster — This metric identifies how many school-based SRTS program volunteer needs are filled with appropriately trained and resourced volunteers.
o What kinds of activities were successful and popular? Are there school bike clubs? Local champions? Principals on fire? Communities engaging in community-wide events? SRTS/Active Transportation Coordinator will check in with schools and report to the City on levels of engagement.
o Lancaster Bike/Ped Coalition engagement levels and track record of activities.

SUMMER 2022
SEE AND BE SEEN
The City’s SRTS Project Manager,
Candice Vander Hyde, explained that
once distance learning began in 2020,
the City worked to develop and post
instructional materials adapted for that learning mode on the SEE AND BE SEEN website. Additionally, teacher instructions were provided, along with lessons and lab worksheets for various lessons.
Neither Ms. Eutsler nor Ms. Sampson was aware of the curriculum components that had been added. They were certain that the teachers were similarly unaware of the resources. They thought the lessons were practical and could be useful for independent study activities as well. The District committed to providing links to the SEE AND BE SEEN activities to the Curriculum and Instruction Department and posting it on the teacher resources website.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Stakeholder and Community Input
Engagement Portals
The City of Lancaster met the challenge of eliciting meaningful community input during a pandemic by calling on long-standing relationships between City staff and the schools, as well as professional connections with community-based organizations. The Project Team also utilized proven virtual engagement strategies, in concert with the City’s social network apparatus, electronic newsletters, and flyers, to spark interest in the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Interactive Map housed on the City’s website, along with community and parent surveys. These materials and links were provided to the project’s Stakeholder Advisory Team which included Lancaster’s four school districts.
The major school-specific engagement activities are described below.
Lancaster School District
One-on-One Interview
In order to gain insight into conditions affecting local school districts, and to support the development of an effective SRTS Master Plan update, the City of Lancaster and its consultant team conducted a series of one-on-one interviews with the SRTS Stakeholder Advisory Team. These interviews were focused on the school districts but included other stakeholders as well. Key points from the interview with Lancaster School District are presented here.
August 18, 2021 Interview Summary Interviewees:
•Jullie Eutsler, Director, Pupil Safety and Attendance
•Jennifer Sampson, Coordinator of Climate, School Safety & Emergency Management
Lingering Impacts of COVID-19
At the time of the interview, Lancaster School District had just reopened and was experiencing a challenging start due to COVID-19, which impacted the trip to school in several ways. For example, social distancing limited students to 25 instead of 50 on school buses, and there was a shortage of drivers.
This factor led more parents to drive their students to school, creating additional congestion at drop-off/pick-up zones. The increased congestion created additional risks, making it less likely for parents to allow their children to walk or roll to school.
School Resources Spread Thin
Additionally, though the school district and the principals were supportive of SRTS, they did not have staff or resources to attend to it consistently because 12,000 students and sets of parents and guardians were focused on staying safe. Student welfare and the need to respond to behavioral issues took precedence over longer-term considerations such as SRTS. The interviewees noted how thinly stretched school resources were and indicated that their own department of only three people was responsible for district-wide safety.
Ms. Eutsler and Ms. Sampson noted that Amargosa Middle School was located in a high-traffic area, so parents tend to drive them because it’s not as safe for children to walk. [Amargosa’s percent of students walking to school dropped 12% in 2013-2015 to 10% in 2021.]

Interactive Map Input
Amargosa Creek Middle School
30th Street West between Avenue J & Avenue J-8
• Long distance between marked crosswalks.
Central Court between 25th Street West & Valley Central Way • Lack of sidewalks on the north side of Central Court. • Northwest corner of Central Court and Valley Central Way is obstructed by trees and bushes.
Valley Central Way between Lancaster Boulevard & Avenue J • Long distance between marked crosswalks, with no opportunities to cross between shopping plazas on opposite sides of Valley Central Way. 30th Street West between Avenue J-4 & Avenue J-6
• Students cross outside marked crosswalks, often unaccompanied by adults. 27th Street West in front of School
• Students cross outside marked crosswalks to and from parents parked on street opposite from school.
• Parents double and triple park during pickup and drop-off periods. 25th Street West between Lancaster Boulevard & Avenue J • Long distance between marked crosswalks with no opportunities to cross between residential areas and shopping plazas on opposite sides of 25th Street West.
• Pickup/drop-off points create problems for schoolchildren and pedestrians. 27th Street West & Avenue J
• Vehicles making eastbound right turns will block crosswalks due to congestion during pickup and drop-off periods.
• Traffic congestion during pickup and drop-off periods make westbound left turn difficult, leading to problems in intersection. • Protected westbound left turn phase does not activate with every cycle.
Gable Lane & Avenue J
• If protected westbound left turn phase doesn't activate at signal at Avenue J & 27th Street West, parents will use Gable Lane to turn around and make an eastbound right turn onto 27th Street West from Avenue J. This has led to frustration from neighbors.
Avenue J-8 & 27th Street West
• Crossing guard posted here does not feel that flashing beacon offers sufficient protection from vehicles.
• Unsignalized nature of intersection makes it difficult for vehicles to make southbound left turns, leading to congestion on 27th Street West. 27th Street West & Pondera Street
• Some parents utilize this neighborhood during pickup and drop-off periods to avoid traffic congestion on 27th Street West in front of the school. This leads to kids crossing Avenue J against crossing guard's direction.
SURVEY RESPONSE
"It's different times. It's more dangerous nowadays."
Amargosa Middle School
Virtual Walk Audit
Walk audits are used across the nation and were employed here to help the project team understand existing conditions, walking and bicycling patterns, locations of crossing guards, conflicts with traffic, concerns about sidewalks, crosswalks, bicycle facilities, signals, lighting, and social and environmental factors. The Amargosa Middle School virtual walk audit was held on October 27, 2021, via web conference.
Campus Supervisors Kimberly Alvarez and Mac Barnes represented the school; Jenny Sampson represented the school district; Candice Vander Hyde and Matt Simons represented the City. With everyone able to view the SRTS Interactive Map, participants were able to quickly discuss general topics and concerns and identify specific problems.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Stakeholder and Community Input
Walk audit comments in addition to those included previously in the SRTS Interactive Map Input section, are summarized below:
• We always have crossing guards at 27th Street West & Avenue J and 30th Street West & Avenue J-8. We should have one at 27th Street West & Avenue J-8, but supervision aids and crossing guards are severely understaffed.
• Kids are crossing at 30th Street West and Avenue J-4. • There’s a long way between crosswalks, so kids cross major streets outside of marked crosswalks.
• Sidewalks are not continuous in the neighborhood. When there isn't a sidewalk, kids don't want to walk in the mud.
• We need a flashing light at 27th Street West and Avenue J-8— supervision aides and students are at risk. One aide retired because she got bumped by a car.
• 27th Street West is the only parent pickup/drop-off area, and this occurs from Avenue J all the way down to Avenue J-4.
• At 27th Street West and Avenue J, cars get backed up at the turn arrow, as it cycles twice before the turn arrow goes on, and it’s not long enough.
It creates queueing, and staff and parents don’t want to wait. They go into Gable Lane and make a U-turn, conflicting with area residents.
Words have been exchanged in front of the kids.
• There are behavior issues as students are reacclimating to in-person school: fights, acting out, defiance, bullying, and cyber-bullying. It's worse in the high schools.
• Middle-schoolers have trouble obeying the crossing guards. The high school kids have risky habits, crossing against the light. The older children feel they’re grown, and needn't pay attention to the crossing guards. • With no law enforcement, parents park wherever and however they want, as they've been doing for at least 10 years. But as the population grows (we had almost a thousand students in 2020) congestion gets worse, and parents go into the neighborhoods, creating conflicts with residents.
• Law enforcement poses its own problems, as citation-giving creates congestion, too.
• Parents call their kids across the street against the light. "Students are coming from all of the surrounding
neighborhoods. Lots of them are being driven who
could be walking!" (Amargosa Supervisor)

SUMMER 2022
The City will partner with School
Districts and funders to expand
SEE AND BE SEEN's offerings, and
ensure educators and the general
public can easily access and use its
features. Driver education to improve
the safety of motorists and nonmotorists is included.
• Bike rodeos and clinics
• Pedestrian skills and safety rodeos
• SEE & BE SEEN lesson plans
Programmed and funded events,
public recognition, themed activities,
posters and signage will support
current walkers and rollers, and inspire
others to join them. School-focused
and community-wide events will be
identified and scheduled.
• Promote SRTS Calendar —
Walk & Roll events and challenges
• Walking school bus in nice
weather
Appropriate enforcement strategies
ensure that motorists, bicyclists and
pedestrians obey the rules of the road
near schools, improving safety while
encouraging active transportation.
Community enforcement programs
augment local law enforcement to
establish new norms that respect
student safety and help parents feel
confident as they send their children
to school.
• School Circulation Plans
• Support for crossing guards/
campus supervisors
• Sheriff's Dept. roadway safety talks
At the core of Lancaster's SRTS
is a commitment to deliver highquality and effective projects and programs to all school communities,
especially disadvantaged and lowincome students, students of color, and mobility-impaired students who
face challenges to walking, bicycling,
or rolling to school safely and
comfortably.
• Prioritize high-need schools
• RE-Cycle Bike Donation /
Repair Clinics
Successful, funded SRTS plans result
from ongoing, meaningful engagement
with the students, families, schools and
local community organizations who will
benefit from the projects and programs.
Community engagement that continues
beyond plan adoption ensures that
the SRTS is a living document and
that implementation of the plan is
responsive to intergenerational needs
for bicycle and pedestrian facilities and
programs as they change over time.
• Community events, family fun days
• Annual parent/guardian surveys
Clearly identified periodic
reporting allows schools and the
City to document progress, make
modifications, request needed
funding, and celebrate success.
• Annual student tallies
SRTS PROGRAM RECOMMENDATIONS
The Other 'E's
With City and School District programmatic
support, the principal can set the tone to
encourage and increase students who
walk or bike to school.

Stakeholder and Community Input
Engagement Portals
The City of Lancaster met the challenge of eliciting meaningful community input during a pandemic by calling on long-standing relationships between City staff and the schools, as well as professional connections with community-based organizations. The Project Team also utilized proven virtual engagement strategies, in concert with the City’s social network apparatus, electronic newsletters, and flyers, to spark interest in the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Interactive Map housed on the City’s website, along with community and parent surveys. These materials and links were provided to the project’s Stakeholder Advisory Team that included Lancaster’s four School Districts. The major school-specific engagement activities are described below.
Lancaster School District
One-on-One Interview
In order to gain insight into conditions affecting local School Districts, and to support the development of an effective SRTS Master Plan update, the City of Lancaster and its consultant team conducted a series of one-on-one interviews with the SRTS Stakeholder Advisory Team. These interviews were focused on the School Districts but included other stakeholders as well. Key points from the interview with Lancaster School District are presented here.
August 18, 2021 Interview Summary Interviewees:
•Jullie Eutsler, Director, Pupil Safety and Attendance
•Jennifer Sampson, Coordinator of Climate, School Safety & Emergency Management
Lingering Impacts of COVID-19
At the time of the interview, Lancaster School District had just reopened and was experiencing a challenging start due to COVID-19, which impacted the trip to school in several ways. For example, social distancing limited students to 25 instead of 50 on school buses, and there was a shortage of drivers. This factor led more parents to drive their students to school, creating additional congestion at drop-off/pick-up zones. The increased congestion created additional risks, making it less likely for parents to allow their children to walk or roll to school.
School Resources Spread Thin
Additionally, though the school district and the principals were supportive of SRTS, they did not have staff or resources to attend to it consistently because 12,000 students and sets of parents and guardians were focused on staying safe.
Student welfare and the need to respond to behavioral issues took precedence over longer-term considerations such as SRTS. The interviewees noted how thinly stretched school resources were and indicated that their own department of only three people was responsible for district-wide safety.
SEE AND BE SEEN
The City’s SRTS Project Manager, Candice Vander Hyde, explained that once distance learning began in 2020, the City worked to develop and post instructional materials adapted for that learning mode on the SEE AND BE SEEN website. Additionally, teacher instructions were provided, along with lessons and lab worksheets for various lessons.
Neither Ms. Eutsler nor Ms. Sampson was aware of the curriculum components that had been added. They were certain that the teachers were similarly unaware of the resources. They thought the lessons were practical and could be useful for independent study activities as well. The District committed to providing links to the SEE AND BE SEEN activities to the Curriculum and Instruction Department and posting it on the teacher resources website.

Parent Surveys and SRTS
Interactive Map Input
Desert View Elementary School
Saigon Avenue between Avenue H-8 & Avenue H-10
• Students cross street outside of marked crosswalks.
• Parents double park during pickup periods (drop-off not allowed on this side of school).
• Request for traffic calming measures (speed humps) and crosswalk improvements.
• Request for multiple pickup and drop-off locations.
Avenue H-8 & 15th Street West
• School buses block the view of the crossing guard, who must exercise extra caution entering the street.
o Suggestion to move bus pickup and drop-off area.
• Vehicles reported to ignore school bus stop arm and flashing lights. • Vehicles speed along 15th Street West.
Avenue H-10 between Saigon Avenue & 15th Street West
• Vehicles queue east on Avenue H-10 and up the southbound lanes of 15th Street West during pickup and drop-off periods. o Suggestion to have staggered dismissal times for students.
SURVEY RESPONSES
Desert View Elementary School attracted 15 survey responses from parents of students who walked (7), took the family car (6), or arrived via carpool (1) or school bus (1). About half the respondents said the walk to this school was somewhat or very fun, and relatively safe. Most were supportive of, or interested in, a range of proposed education and encouragement activities.
What good memories of walking or biking to school
would you like your child to enjoy as well?
" Having that sense of independence of being able to walk home." " I can talk to my child about their school life. Can talk about what we have seen on the way."
" More time for company and communication."
" Being able to experience responsibility."
" Time to spend with friends."
" Seeing the houses with their changing decorations for the seasons." What other projects or programs would you like to see?
"Good sidewalks. More signs for slowing down cars.
Stop guiders."
" Maybe parents can wait for their child in front of their own house to make sure they go straight home, exchange numbers with other parents of children that take similar or same routes as their child." " Slower traffic."
"Walking days."

Stakeholder and Community Input
Desert View Elementary
Virtual Walk Audit
Walk audits are used across the nation and were employed here to help the project team understand existing conditions, walking and bicycling patterns, locations of crossing guards, conflicts with traffic, concerns about sidewalks, crosswalks, bicycle facilities, signals, lighting, and social and environmental factors. The Desert View Elementary School virtual walk audit was held on October 7, 2021, via web conference.
Campus Supervisor Leticia Hernandez represented the school; Candice Vander Hyde and Matt Simons represented the City. With everyone able to view the SRTS Interactive Map, participants were able to quickly discuss general topics and concerns and identify specific problems. Walk audit comments in addition to those included previously in the SRTS Interactive Map Input section, are summarized below:
• Estimated 25% of kids are walking, coming mostly from south of the school. [Fall 2021 Student Tallies showed 19% walking, down from 22% in the 2013–2015 period.]
• Before COVID, they had about 10 kids who would ride their bikes, but in 2021, no bicyclists or scooters have been observed. • The only crossing guards are in front of the school, and another is stationed on 15th Street West, where the drop-off is, and where it’s dangerous even for the crossing guards themselves. The crossing guard has to get out into the middle of the street, risking herself, and then she calls the kids out to cross. However, it has been better since the sidewalks were completed.
• Sidewalks make it easier for parents who walk with their strollers. • When the deputy comes, everything goes more smoothly. "The City's crossing improvements are good! Lots of sidewalks, crosswalks, speed humps behind the school.
But we still have a big problem on 15th Street West and Avenue H-8.” (Desert View Campus Supervisor) Desert View Elementary School

SUMMER 2022 10
The City will partner with School
Districts and funders to expand
SEE AND BE SEEN's offerings, and
ensure educators and the general
public can easily access and use its
features. Driver education to improve
the safety of motorists and nonmotorists is included.
• Bike rodeos and clinics
• Pedestrian skills and safety rodeos
• SEE & BE SEEN lesson plans
Programmed and funded events,
public recognition, themed activities,
posters and signage will support
current walkers and rollers, and inspire
others to join them. School-focused
and community-wide events will be
identified and scheduled.
• Promote SRTS Calendar —
Walk & Roll events and challenges
• Walking school bus in nice
weather
Appropriate enforcement strategies
ensure that motorists, bicyclists and
pedestrians obey the rules of the road
near schools, improving safety while
encouraging active transportation.
Community enforcement programs
augment local law enforcement to
establish new norms that respect
student safety and help parents feel
confident as they send their children
to school.
• School Circulation Plans
• Support for crossing guards/
campus supervisors
• Sheriff's Dept. roadway safety talks
At the core of Lancaster's SRTS
is a commitment to deliver highquality and effective projects and programs to all school communities,
especially disadvantaged and lowincome students, students of color, and mobility-impaired students who
face challenges to walking, bicycling,
or rolling to school safely and
comfortably.
• Prioritize high-need schools
• RE-Cycle Bike Donation /
Repair Clinics
Successful, funded SRTS plans result
from ongoing, meaningful engagement
with the students, families, schools and
local community organizations who will
benefit from the projects and programs.
Community engagement that continues
beyond plan adoption ensures that
the SRTS is a living document and
that implementation of the plan is
responsive to intergenerational needs
for bicycle and pedestrian facilities and
programs as they change over time.
• Community events, family fun days
• Annual parent/guardian surveys
Clearly identified periodic
reporting allows schools and the
City to document progress, make
modifications, request needed
funding, and celebrate success.
• Annual student tallies

Stakeholder and Community Input
Engagement Portals
The City of Lancaster met the challenge of eliciting meaningful community input during a pandemic by calling on long-standing relationships between City staff and the schools, as well as professional connections with communitybased organizations. The Project Team also utilized proven virtual engagement strategies, in concert with the City’s social network apparatus, electronic newsletters, and flyers, to spark interest in the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Interactive Map housed on the City’s website, along with community and parent surveys. These materials and links were provided to the project’s Stakeholder Advisory Team that included Lancaster’s four School Districts. The major schoolspecific engagement activities are described below.
Lancaster School District
One-on-One Interview
In order to gain insight into conditions affecting local School Districts, and to support the development of an effective SRTS Master Plan update, the City of Lancaster and its consultant team conducted a series of one-on-one interviews with the SRTS Stakeholder Advisory Team. These interviews were focused on the School Districts but included other stakeholders as well. Key points from the interview with Lancaster School District are presented here.
August 18, 2021 Interview Summary Interviewees:
•Jullie Eutsler, Director, Pupil Safety and Attendance
•Jennifer Sampson, Coordinator of Climate, School Safety & Emergency Management
Lingering Impacts of COVID-19
At the time of the interview, Lancaster School District had just reopened and was experiencing a challenging start due to COVID-19, which impacted the trip to school in several ways. For example, social distancing limited students to 25 instead of 50 on school buses, and there was a shortage of drivers. This factor led more parents to drive their students to school, creating additional congestion at drop-off/pick-up zones. The increased congestion created additional risks, making it less likely for parents to allow their children to walk or roll to school.
School Resources Spread Thin
Additionally, though the school district and the principals were supportive of SRTS, they did not have staff or resources to attend to it consistently because 12,000 students and sets of parents and guardians were focused on staying safe.
Student welfare and the need to respond to behavioral issues took precedence over longer-term considerations such as SRTS. The interviewees noted how thinly stretched school resources were and indicated that their own department of only three people was responsible for district-wide safety.
Ms. Eutsler and Ms. Sampson noted that Amargosa Middle School was located in a high-traffic area, so parents tend to drive them because it’s not as safe for children to walk. [Amargosa’s percent of students walking to school dropped 12% in 2013–2015 to 10% in 2021.]
SEE AND BE SEEN
The City’s SRTS Project Manager, Candice Vander Hyde, explained that once distance learning began in 2020, the City worked to develop and post instructional materials adapted for that learning mode on the SEE AND BE SEEN website. Additionally, teacher instructions were provided, along with lessons and lab worksheets for various lessons.
Neither Ms. Eutsler nor Ms. Sampson was aware of the curriculum components that had been added. They were certain that the teachers were similarly unaware of the resources. They thought the lessons were practical and could be useful for independent study activities as well. The District committed to providing links to the SEE AND BE SEEN activities to the Curriculum and Instruction Department and posting it on the teacher resources website.

7 Parent Surveys and SRTS
Interactive Map Input
Discovery Elementary School
School Parking Lot
• During pickup and drop-off periods, parents double park along barrier in front of school entrance.
• Vehicles have used crosswalk to drive between school parking lots. o Cones are placed to deter this behavior.
17th Street East between Kettering Street & Lancaster Boulevard • Queuing can form from parents waiting to pull into school driveway. • Vehicles speed along 17th Street East.
o Suggestion for traffic calming measures (speed humps). 15th Street East & Kettering Street
• Speeding makes crosswalk dangerous for students crossing 15th Street East. • No crossing guard is posted at this location.
17th Street East & Kettering Street
• Vehicles drive through crosswalks despite presence of crossing guard.
SURVEY RESPONSES
Two parents of Discovery Elementary students responded to the survey, and both indicated that if traffic volumes, vehicle speeds, crosswalk safety, and violence and crime were addressed, they would be willing to allow their children to walk to school.
Discovery Elementary School
Virtual Walk Audit
Walk audits are used across the nation and were employed here to help the project team understand existing conditions, walking and bicycling patterns, locations of crossing guards, conflicts with traffic, concerns about sidewalks, crosswalks, bicycle facilities, signals, lighting, and social and environmental factors. The Discovery Elementary School virtual walk audit was held on October 8, 2021, via web conference.
Campus Supervisor Julie Lopez represented the school; Candice Vander Hyde and Matt Simons represented the City. With everyone able to view the SRTS Interactive Map, participants were able to quickly discuss general topics and concerns and identify specific problems.
Walk audit comments in addition to those included previously in the SRTS Interactive Map Input section, are summarized below:
• There were more walkers in Spring 2021 when the school operated on a hybrid model. Now we don’t see many walkers—there was a noticeable drop in bikers and walkers after COVID. [Fall 2021 Student Tallies showed 8% walking, down from 11% in the 2013–2015 period.]
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Stakeholder and Community Input
• A lot of our walkers live west of 15th Street East. Sometimes the moms bring them, sometimes they walk. There are crosswalks, but no crossing guard. • It’s better to walk in groups—people are worried about kids being snatched. • Kettering and 18th Street East needs a crosswalk, and guards. They’re already stretched thin. And parents are not respecting the crossing guard. • It would be great to have more enforcement. There’s only one deputy, and he can’t be everywhere. But when is there, parents thank him personally for being there.
• We try to make it very convenient for the parents to drive through and stay in their vehicles. Our principal says "get these kiddos in and get the parents out” as quickly as possible.
• No students cross 20th Street East. And rarely on Lancaster Boulevard. • Parents are saying "good-bye” to their child while their car is rolling—there’s a lack of awareness and focus.
"Drivers don’t respect bikers. There are only a
couple of kids who started to bike to school, and
they stopped because they didn’t have good
tires, or chains or locks. Kids would jump the
fence and steal them.” (Discovery Elementary
School Campus Supervisor)

10 The City will partner with School
Districts and funders to expand
SEE AND BE SEEN's offerings, and
ensure educators and the general
public can easily access and use its
features. Driver education to improve
the safety of motorists and nonmotorists is included.
• Bike rodeos and clinics
• Pedestrian skills and safety rodeos
• SEE & BE SEEN lesson plans
Programmed and funded events,
public recognition, themed activities,
posters and signage will support
current walkers and rollers, and inspire
others to join them. School-focused
and community-wide events will be
identified and scheduled.
• Promote SRTS Calendar —
Walk & Roll events and challenges
• Walking school bus in nice
weather
Appropriate enforcement strategies
ensure that motorists, bicyclists and
pedestrians obey the rules of the road
near schools, improving safety while
encouraging active transportation.
Community enforcement programs
augment local law enforcement to
establish new norms that respect
student safety and help parents feel
confident as they send their children
to school.
• School Circulation Plans
• Support for crossing guards/
campus supervisors
• Sheriff's Dept. roadway safety talks
At the core of Lancaster's SRTS
is a commitment to deliver highquality and effective projects and programs to all school communities,
especially disadvantaged and lowincome students, students of color, and mobility-impaired students who
face challenges to walking, bicycling,
or rolling to school safely and
comfortably.
• Prioritize high-need schools
• RE-Cycle Bike Donation /
Repair Clinics
Successful, funded SRTS plans result
from ongoing, meaningful engagement
with the students, families, schools and
local community organizations who will
benefit from the projects and programs.
Community engagement that continues
beyond plan adoption ensures that
the SRTS is a living document and
that implementation of the plan is
responsive to intergenerational needs
for bicycle and pedestrian facilities and
programs as they change over time.
• Community events, family fun days
• Annual parent/guardian surveys
Clearly identified periodic
reporting allows schools and the
City to document progress, make
modifications, request needed
funding, and celebrate success.
• Annual student tallies
SRTS PROGRAM RECOMMENDATIONS
The Other 'E's
With City and School District programmatic
support, the principal can set the tone to
encourage and increase students who
walk or bike to school.

School Facts
El Dorado Eagle
Scholars SOAR!
The El Dorado teachers and staff enthusiastically prepare for each new school year. In the preceding three years before the Covid-19 outbreak, our El Dorado Eagle students had significant growth in ELA and Math. Their success was a collaboration of students, parents and teachers working together to ensure that every child succeeds! Additionally, our Positive Behavior Interventions & Supports (PBIS) are bar none as El Dorado was again a Nationally Recognized Capturing Kids' Hearts School ... three years in a row! The school is excited to build upon those improvements and help STUDENT EAGLES SOAR postpandemic.
How are El Dorado students getting to school?

Stakeholder and Community Input
Engagement Portals
The City of Lancaster met the challenge of eliciting meaningful community input during a pandemic by calling on long-standing relationships between City staff and the schools, as well as professional connections with communitybased organizations. The Project Team also utilized proven virtual engagement strategies, in concert with the City’s social network apparatus, electronic newsletters, and flyers, to spark interest in the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Interactive Map housed on the City’s website, along with community and parent surveys. These materials and links were provided to the project’s Stakeholder Advisory Team that included Lancaster’s four School Districts. The major schoolspecific engagement activities are described below.
Lancaster School District
One-on-One Interview
In order to gain insight into conditions affecting local School Districts, and to support the development of an effective SRTS Master Plan update, the City of Lancaster and its consultant team conducted a series of one-on-one interviews with the SRTS Stakeholder Advisory Team. These interviews were focused on the School Districts but included other stakeholders as well. Key points from the interview with Lancaster School District are presented here.
August 18, 2021 Interview Summary Interviewees:
•Jullie Eutsler, Director, Pupil Safety and Attendance
•Jennifer Sampson, Coordinator of Climate, School Safety & Emergency Management
Lingering Impacts of COVID-19
At the time of the interview, Lancaster School District had just reopened and was experiencing a challenging start due to COVID-19, which impacted the trip to school in several ways. For example, social distancing limited students to 25 instead of 50 on school buses, and there was a shortage of drivers. This factor led more parents to drive their students to school, creating additional congestion at drop-off/pick-up zones. The increased congestion created additional risks, making it less likely for parents to allow their children to walk or roll to school.
School Resources Spread Thin
Additionally, though the School District and the principals were supportive of SRTS, they did not have the capacity to attend to it in a deep and consistent manner, as 12,000 students and sets of parents and guardians were focused on staying safe. Student welfare and the need to respond to behavioral issues took precedence over longer-term considerations such as SRTS. The interviewees noted how thinly stretched school resources were and indicated that their own department of only three people was responsible for district-wide safety.
Ms. Eutsler and Ms. Sampson noted, however, that El Dorado Elementary School has enjoyed relatively high percentages of students walking (28% of students reported walking to school in 2013–2015) and the principal is cooperative and committed.
A concern for the 5th Street East corridor schools (including El Dorado Elementary, Linda Verde Dual Language, Joshua Elementary, and Piute Middle School) is that they fall into a higher-crime area, presenting challenges to active transportation initiatives.
SEE AND BE SEEN
The City’s SRTS Project Manager,
Candice Vander Hyde, explained that
once distance learning began in 2020,
the City worked to develop and post instructional materials adapted for that learning mode on the SEE AND BE SEEN website. Additionally, teacher instructions were provided, along with lessons and lab worksheets for various lessons.
Neither Ms. Eutsler nor Ms. Sampson was aware of the curriculum components that had been added. They were certain that the teachers were similarly unaware of the resources. They thought the lessons were practical and could be useful for independent study activities as well. The District committed to providing links to the SEE AND BE SEEN activities to the Curriculum and Instruction Department and posting it on the teacher resources website.

Parent Surveys and SRTS
Interactive Map Input
El Dorado Elementary School
With public engagement constrained by the pandemic, it proved challenging to elicit significant feedback from El Dorado parents. Though several survey opportunities produced only two responses, they provide some insight into parents' concerns and are discussed here. We note that one respondent reported household income of less than $20,000 and the other reported household income between $75,000 and $99,000. Both were Englishspeaking, identifying as Black or African American.
Both respondents drove their students to school. With residences near Avenue J and Challenger, one parent felt it was "very safe" to walk to school, while the other felt it was "very unsafe." One indicated that their child would be permitted to walk or bike to school without an adult, but with other students, when he reached 8th grade; the other respondent would not allow this at any grade.
One parent was unaware of the school's current efforts to encourage active transportation, while one felt the school discouraged such trips. One of the respondents felt it would be "very helpful" to teach children and parents about walking, biking, and driving safely near schools, to calm traffic, help provide affordable bikes or helmets, position adults along the way to school, enhance law enforcement presence, let everyone know about the health and academic benefits of an active lifestyle, and include the neighborhood in weekend/ summer events.
The only Public Coordinate response targeted to El Dorado related to a fatal shooting in El Dorado Park in 2021. This underscores concerns about safety expressed by the School District and the community.
El Dorado Park
•School staff noted there was a shooting at the park in Fall 2021.
El Dorado Elementary School
Virtual Walk Audit
Walk audits are used across the nation and were employed here to help the project team understand existing conditions, walking and bicycling patterns, locations of crossing guards, conflicts with traffic, concerns about sidewalks, crosswalks, bicycle facilities, signals, lighting, and social and environmental factors. The El Dorado virtual walk audit was held on October 15, 2021, via web conference.
El Dorado campus supervisor Dorla Anderson represented the school; Candice Vander Hyde represented the City. With everyone able to view the SRTS Interactive Map, participants were able to quickly discuss general topics and concerns and identify specific problems. Walk audit comments in addition
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Stakeholder and Community Input
to those included previously in the SRTS Interactive Map Input section, are summarized below:
• There is no issue with traffic jams, as the school has three pick-up areas.
It goes quickly and parents are informed by email about what gate to go to. Release times are staggered, with Kindergarten released first. • Most students walking to school seem to come from the western residential area, and they don't have to cross the street. • Ms. Anderson had not seen bicyclists in 2021, after the school reopened. • Ms. Anderson did not see much crime In the area and noted that there were afternoon Zumba classes at the park. She acknowledged a recent shooting in the park (not during school hours) but indicated that parents trusted the school to do the right thing.
• Still, it appears to be the parents who don't want their kids walking to school.
SITE SPECIFIC FEEDBACK

The City will partner with School
Districts and funders to expand
SEE AND BE SEEN's offerings, and
ensure educators and the general
public can easily access and use its
features. Driver education to improve
the safety of motorists and nonmotorists is included.
• Bike rodeos and clinics
• Pedestrian skills and safety rodeos
• SEE & BE SEEN lesson plans
Programmed and funded events,
public recognition, themed activities,
posters and signage will support
current walkers and rollers, and inspire
others to join them. School-focused
and community-wide events will be
identified and scheduled.
• Promote SRTS Calendar —
Walk & Roll events and challenges
• Walking school bus in nice
weather
Appropriate enforcement strategies
ensure that motorists, bicyclists and
pedestrians obey the rules of the road
near schools, improving safety while
encouraging active transportation.
Community enforcement programs
augment local law enforcement to
establish new norms that respect
student safety and help parents feel
confident as they send their children
to school.
• School Circulation Plans
• Support for crossing guards/
campus supervisors
• Sheriff's Dept. roadway safety talks
At the core of Lancaster's SRTS
is a commitment to deliver highquality and effective projects and programs to all school communities,
especially disadvantaged and lowincome students, students of color, and mobility-impaired students who
face challenges to walking, bicycling,
or rolling to school safely and
comfortably.
• Prioritize high-need schools
• RE-Cycle Bike Donation /
Repair Clinics
Successful, funded SRTS plans result
from ongoing, meaningful engagement
with the students, families, schools and
local community organizations who will
benefit from the projects and programs.
Community engagement that continues
beyond plan adoption ensures that
the SRTS is a living document and
that implementation of the plan is
responsive to intergenerational needs
for bicycle and pedestrian facilities and
programs as they change over time.
• Community events, family fun days
• Annual parent/guardian surveys
Clearly identified periodic
reporting allows schools and the
City to document progress, make
modifications, request needed funding,
and celebrate success.
• Annual student tallies
SRTS PROGRAM RECOMMENDATIONS
The Other 'E's
With City and School District programmatic
support, the principal can set the tone to
encourage and increase students who
walk or bike to school.

Stakeholder and Community Input
Engagement Portals
The City of Lancaster met the challenge of eliciting meaningful community input during a pandemic by calling on long-standing relationships between City staff and the schools, as well as professional connections with community-based organizations. The Project Team also utilized proven virtual engagement strategies, in concert with the City’s social network apparatus, electronic newsletters, and flyers, to spark interest in the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Interactive Map housed on the City’s website, along with community and parent surveys. These materials and links were provided to the project’s Stakeholder Advisory Team which included Lancaster’s four school districts. The major school-specific engagement activities are described below.
Lancaster School District
One-on-One Interview
In order to gain insight into conditions affecting local school districts, and to support the development of an effective SRTS Master Plan update, the City of Lancaster and its consultant team conducted a series of one-on-one interviews with the SRTS Stakeholder Advisory Team. These interviews were focused on the school districts but included other stakeholders as well. Key points from the interview with Lancaster School District are presented here.
August 18, 2021 Interview Summary Interviewees:
•Jullie Eutsler, Director, Pupil Safety and Attendance
•Jennifer Sampson, Coordinator of Climate, School Safety & Emergency Management
Lingering Impacts of COVID-19
At the time of the interview, Lancaster School District had just reopened and was experiencing a challenging start due to COVID-19, which impacted the trip to school in several ways. For example, social distancing limited students to 25 instead of 50 on school buses, and there was a shortage of drivers. This factor led more parents to drive their students to school, creating additional congestion at drop-off/pick-up zones. The increased congestion created additional risks, making it less likely for parents to allow their children to walk or roll to school.
School Resources Spread Thin
Additionally, though the school district and the principals were supportive of SRTS, they did not have staff or resources to attend to it consistently because 12,000 students and sets of parents and guardians were focused on staying safe.
Student welfare and the need to respond to behavioral issues took precedence over longer-term considerations such as SRTS. The interviewees noted how thinly stretched school resources were and indicated that their own department of only three people was responsible for district-wide safety.
Ms. Eutsler and Ms. Sampson noted that Endeavour Middle School was located in a high-traffic area, so parents tend to drive them because it’s not as safe for children to walk.
SEE AND BE SEEN
The City’s SRTS Project Manager, Candice Vander Hyde, explained that once distance learning began in 2020, the City worked to develop and post instructional materials adapted for that learning mode on the SEE AND BE SEEN website. Additionally, teacher instructions were provided, along with lessons and lab worksheets for various lessons.
Neither Ms. Eutsler nor Ms. Sampson was aware of the curriculum components that had been added. They were certain that the teachers were similarly unaware of the resources. They thought the lessons were practical and could be useful for independent study activities as well. The District committed to providing links to the SEE AND BE SEEN activities to the Curriculum and Instruction Department and posting it on the teacher resources website.

• Parents illegally park and double park on both sides of street despite lack of a designated pickup/drop-off area.
• Students crossing street outside of marked crosswalks to reach parents illegally parked across street from school.
o School staff request for a marked, monitored crosswalk. • There is a lack of signage along west side of street to deter parking. 45th Street West & Avenue J-12
• Vehicles frequently block crosswalk to make eastbound left or right turns. • Poor visibility makes it difficult to make eastbound left turn onto 45th Street West.
• Poor street/curb design. Many cars drive into curb when entering/exiting 45th Street West.
Avenue K & 45th Street West
• Vehicles speed in both directions.
o Frequent cause of speeding is to make yellow lights.
Avenue K between 40th Street West & 42nd Street West
• Lack of sidewalks for students walking from eastern residential neighborhoods to school.
o School staff specifically highlighted this gap as problematic.
Avenue K between 60th Street West & 50th Street West
• Lack of dedicated bike facilities.
SURVEY RESPONSES
Two parents of Endeavour Middle School students responded to the survey, and both indicated that if traffic volumes, vehicle speeds, crosswalk safety, and violence and crime were addressed, they would be willing to allow their children to walk to school.

Virtual Walk Audit
Walk audits are used across the nation and were employed here to help the project team understand existing conditions, walking and bicycling patterns, locations of crossing guards, conflicts with traffic, concerns about sidewalks, crosswalks, bicycle facilities, signals, lighting, and social and environmental factors. The Endeavour Middle School virtual walk audit was held on October 14, 2021, via web conference.
Dr. Sonia Arnold-DeHay, Principal, and Campus Supervisor Vincent Dominguez represented the school; Candice Vander Hyde and Matt Simons represented the City. With everyone able to view the SRTS Interactive Map, participants were able to quickly discuss general topics and concerns and identify specific problems. Walk audit comments in addition to those included previously in the SRTS Interactive Map Input section, are summarized below:
•It was estimated that the number of students walking to school might be 30–35% lower than before the pandemic.
•The school didn’t celebrate October 6 Walk Day this year; the School District opted out of sports this year.
•The bike rack has been moved to in front of the school, which is safer for the bikes and keeps bicyclists from riding through campus.

10 The City will partner with School
Districts and funders to expand
SEE AND BE SEEN's offerings, and
ensure educators and the general
public can easily access and use its
features. Driver education to improve
the safety of motorists and nonmotorists is included.
• Bike rodeos and clinics
• Pedestrian skills and safety rodeos
• SEE & BE SEEN lesson plans
Programmed and funded events,
public recognition, themed activities,
posters and signage will support
current walkers and rollers, and inspire
others to join them. School-focused
and community-wide events will be
identified and scheduled.
• Promote SRTS Calendar —
Walk & Roll events and challenges
• Walking school bus in nice
weather
Appropriate enforcement strategies
ensure that motorists, bicyclists and
pedestrians obey the rules of the road
near schools, improving safety while
encouraging active transportation.
Community enforcement programs
augment local law enforcement to
establish new norms that respect
student safety and help parents feel
confident as they send their children
to school.
• School Circulation Plans
• Support for crossing guards/
campus supervisors
• Sheriff's Dept. roadway safety talks
At the core of Lancaster's SRTS
is a commitment to deliver highquality and effective projects and programs to all school communities,
especially disadvantaged and lowincome students, students of color, and mobility-impaired students who
face challenges to walking, bicycling,
or rolling to school safely and
comfortably.
• Prioritize high-need schools
• RE-Cycle Bike Donation /
Repair Clinics
Successful, funded SRTS plans result
from ongoing, meaningful engagement
with the students, families, schools and
local community organizations who will
benefit from the projects and programs.
Community engagement that continues
beyond plan adoption ensures that
the SRTS is a living document and
that implementation of the plan is
responsive to intergenerational needs
for bicycle and pedestrian facilities and
programs as they change over time.
• Community events, family fun days
• Annual parent/guardian surveys
Clearly identified periodic
reporting allows schools and the
City to document progress, make
modifications, request needed
funding, and celebrate success.
• Annual student tallies
SRTS PROGRAM RECOMMENDATIONS
The Other 'E's
With City and School District programmatic
support, the principal can set the tone to
encourage and increase students who
walk or bike to school.

Our school is committed to creating a safe environment for all students and staff, where courtesy and kindness prevail, and where there is respect for differences in other people, customs and cultures. We want our students to work hard individually and as a classroom community to achieve an environment where everyone feels valued, and believes they can be successful.
We have developed our Jack Northrop Positive Behavior
Interventions and Supports (PBIS) program to help foster a safe and positive learning environment. At Jack Northrop Elementary we work to strengthen our core with a focus on Be Safe, Be Respectful, and Be Responsible. These are the values that we stand behind and cornerstones of our beliefs. In addition to our district adopted Social Emotional Learning (SEL) curriculum, we focus on the core values throughout the school year.

Stakeholder and Community Input
Engagement Portals
The City of Lancaster met the challenge of eliciting meaningful community input during a pandemic by calling on long-standing relationships between city staff and the schools, as well as professional connections with communitybased organizations. The Project Team also utilized proven virtual engagement strategies, in concert with the City’s social network apparatus, electronic newsletters, and flyers, to spark interest in the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) interactive map housed on the City’s website, along with community and parent surveys. These materials and links were provided to the project’s Stakeholder Advisory Team which included Lancaster’s four school districts. The major schoolspecific engagement activities are described below.
Lancaster School District
One-on-One Interview
In order to gain insight into conditions affecting local school districts, and to support the development of an effective SRTS Master Plan update, the City of Lancaster and its consultant team conducted a series of one-on-one interviews with the SRTS Stakeholder Advisory Team. These interviews were focused on the school districts but included other stakeholders as well. Key points from the interview with Lancaster School District are presented here.
August 18, 2021 Interview Summary Interviewees:
•Jullie Eutsler, Director, Pupil Safety and Attendance
•Jennifer Sampson, Coordinator of Climate, School Safety & Emergency Management
Lingering Impacts of COVID-19
At the time of the interview, Lancaster School District had just reopened and was experiencing a challenging start due to COVID-19, which impacted the trip to school in several ways. For example, social distancing limited students to 25 instead of 50 on school buses, and there was a shortage of drivers. This factor led more parents to drive their students to school, creating additional congestion at drop-off/pick-up zones. The increased congestion created additional risks, making it less likely for parents to allow their children to walk or roll to school.
School Resources Spread Thin
Additionally, though the school district and the principals were supportive of SRTS, they did not have staff or resources to attend to it consistently because 12,000 students and sets of parents and guardians were focused on staying safe.
Student welfare and the need to respond to behavioral issues took precedence over longer-term considerations such as SRTS. The interviewees noted how thinly stretched school resources were and indicated that their own department of only three people was responsible for district-wide safety.
SEE AND BE SEEN
The City’s SRTS Project Manager, Candice Vander Hyde, explained that once distance learning began in 2020, the City worked to develop and post instructional materials adapted for that learning mode on the SEE AND BE SEEN website. Additionally, teacher instructions were provided, along with lessons and lab worksheets for various lessons.
Neither Ms. Eutsler nor Ms. Sampson was aware of the curriculum components that had been added. They were certain that the teachers were similarly unaware of the resources. They thought the lessons were practical and could be useful for independent study activities as well. The District committed to providing links to the SEE AND BE SEEN activities to the Curriculum and Instruction Department and posting it on the teacher resources website.

Parent Surveys and
SRTS Interactive Map Input
Note that this location has three schools adjacent to each other: New Vista Middle School, Jack Northrop Elementary School, and Fulton and Alsbury Academy of Arts and Engineering, which creates an arrival/dismissal congestion problem for everyone. Access for all three schools is primarily from Challenger Way and Avenue K-2, and secondarily via First View Street and Avenue K-4. The SRTS update conducted separate walk audits for Jack Northrop and New Vista, with observations that apply to all three schools.
The School District has discussed a circulation plan involving one-way streets, which would require City of Lancaster assistance to develop and refine, and ultimately City approval to implement.

SURVEY RESPONSES
What are some good memories of walking or biking to
school that you would like your child to enjoy as well? "It was a great way to feel a part of your community and enjoy riding through a great neighborhood filled with loving people.” What other ideas, programs or projects would you like to see, in order to make it safe and fun for kids to walk, bike, skate, scoot, or roll to school?
"Once a month, when appropriate, organize group cycling events to encourage the community to come out and safely use the bike lanes. There are many people interested in biking around the community but are afraid because of the high speeds in our community and minimal speed bumps in the residential streets.
Many drivers disregard the bike lanes because they don't see them used, but if many more people were to come out and use them, I'd imagine people would be more mindful of the bike lanes and not drive through them.”
Jack Northrop Elementary School
Virtual Walk Audit
Walk audits are used across the nation and were employed here to help the project team understand existing conditions, walking and bicycling patterns, locations of crossing guards, conflicts with traffic, concerns about sidewalks, crosswalks, bicycle facilities, signals, lighting, and social and environmental factors. The Jack Northrop Elementary School virtual walk audit was held on October 14, 2021, via web conference.
Claudia Siques, Vice-Principal, and Campus Supervisors Rosie Reyes and Melissa Cowie represented the school; Candice Vander Hyde represented the City. With everyone able to view the SRTS Interactive Map, participants were able to quickly discuss general topics and concerns and identify specific problems. Walk audit comments in addition to those included previously in the SRTS Interactive Map Input section, are summarized below:
•This location has three schools adjacent to each other: Jack Northrop, New Vista Elementary, and Fulton Asbury, which creates an arrival/ dismissal congestion problem for everyone. We have an idea for oneway streets but that would require City approval and help. •At arrival and dismissal, you can see the traffic jam onto Challenger, especially on minimum days when everyone comes at the same time. •There’s a crossing guard on Avenue K-4 and on Avenue K and Challenger Way. Crossing guards have different start and dismissal times for New Vista vs. Jack Northrop.
•Primary safety concerns for those walking and biking are parents parking over the crosswalks, on K-2 and K-4, and parents double-parking and speeding. Problems with erratic parent behavior.
•As far as enforcement goes, there’s definitely a different environment when deputies are there. The City’s code enforcement used to be there, pre-pandemic. We’re a later starting school, so that made it more difficult, but the City’s presence also helped.
•Inbetween K-4 and K-2, there’s an unidentified street/alley between the two fields. It’s very narrow; you can just barely fit two cars driving in opposite directions, but if there’s a car parked, it causes a blockage and backup. There are gates there, so probably a private ROW. •Parents might not like speed humps, but the school folks would love them.
•Vice-Principal has put up banners and signs: "Connect Ed.”

SAFE ROUTES
TO SCHOOL
The City will partner with School
Districts and funders to expand
SEE AND BE SEEN's offerings, and
ensure educators and the general
public can easily access and use its
features. Driver education to improve
the safety of motorists and nonmotorists is included.
• Bike rodeos and clinics
• Pedestrian skills and safety rodeos
• SEE & BE SEEN lesson plans
Programmed and funded events,
public recognition, themed activities,
posters and signage will support
current walkers and rollers, and inspire
others to join them. School-focused
and community-wide events will be
identified and scheduled.
• Promote SRTS Calendar —
Walk & Roll events and challenges
• Walking school bus in nice
weather
Appropriate enforcement strategies
ensure that motorists, bicyclists and
pedestrians obey the rules of the road
near schools, improving safety while
encouraging active transportation.
Community enforcement programs
augment local law enforcement to
establish new norms that respect
student safety and help parents feel
confident as they send their children
to school.
• School Circulation Plans
• Support for crossing guards/
campus supervisors
• Sheriff's Dept. roadway safety talks
At the core of Lancaster's SRTS
is a commitment to deliver highquality and effective projects and programs to all school communities,
especially disadvantaged and lowincome students, students of color, and mobility-impaired students who
face challenges to walking, bicycling,
or rolling to school safely and
comfortably.
• Prioritize high-need schools
• RE-Cycle Bike Donation /
Repair Clinics
Successful, funded SRTS plans result
from ongoing, meaningful engagement
with the students, families, schools and
local community organizations who will
benefit from the projects and programs.
Community engagement that continues
beyond plan adoption ensures that
the SRTS is a living document and
that implementation of the plan is
responsive to intergenerational needs
for bicycle and pedestrian facilities and
programs as they change over time.
• Community events, family fun days
• Annual parent/guardian surveys
Clearly identified periodic
reporting allows schools and the
City to document progress, make
modifications, request needed funding,
and celebrate success.
• Annual student tallies
SRTS PROGRAM RECOMMENDATIONS
The Other 'E's
With City and School District programmatic
support, the principal can set the tone to
encourage and increase students who
walk or bike to school.

Stakeholder and Community Input
Engagement Portals
The City of Lancaster met the challenge of eliciting meaningful community input during a pandemic by calling on long-standing relationships between City staff and the schools, as well as professional connections with community-based organizations. The Project Team also utilized proven virtual engagement strategies, in concert with the City’s social network apparatus, electronic newsletters, and flyers, to spark interest in the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Interactive Map housed on the City’s website, along with community and parent surveys. These materials and links were provided to the project’s Stakeholder Advisory Team that included Lancaster’s four School Districts. The major school-specific engagement activities are described below.
Lancaster School District
One-on-One Interview
In order to gain insight into conditions affecting local School Districts, and to support the development of an effective SRTS Master Plan update, the City of Lancaster and its consultant team conducted a series of one-on-one interviews with the SRTS Stakeholder Advisory Team. These interviews were focused on the School Districts but included other stakeholders as well. Key points from the interview with Lancaster School District are presented here.
August 18, 2021 Interview Summary Interviewees:
•Jullie Eutsler, Director, Pupil Safety and Attendance
•Jennifer Sampson, Coordinator of Climate, School Safety & Emergency Management
Lingering Impacts of COVID-19
At the time of the interview, Lancaster School District had just reopened and was experiencing a challenging start due to COVID-19, which impacted the trip to school in several ways. For example, social distancing limited students to 25 instead of 50 on school buses, and there was a shortage of drivers. This factor led more parents to drive their students to school, creating additional congestion at drop-off/pick-up zones. The increased congestion created additional risks, making it less likely for parents to allow their children to walk or roll to school.
School Resources Spread Thin
Additionally, though the school district and the principals were supportive of SRTS, they did not have staff or resources to attend to it consistently because 12,000 students and sets of parents and guardians were focused on staying safe. Student welfare and the need to respond to behavioral issues took precedence over longer-term considerations such as SRTS. The interviewees noted how thinly stretched school resources were and indicated that their own department of only three people was responsible for district-wide safety.
Ms. Eutsler and Ms. Sampson noted, however, that Joshua had a high walking population and is surrounded by residential neighborhoods. (Joshua’s percent of students walking to school dropped by nearly half, from 17 % in 2013–2015 to 11% in 2021.)
A concern for the 5th Street East corridor schools (including Joshua Elementary, El Dorado Elementary, Linda Verde Dual Language, and Piute Middle School) is that they fall into a higher-crime area, presenting challenges to active transportation initiatives.
SEE AND BE SEEN
The City’s SRTS Project Manager,
Candice Vander Hyde, explained that
once distance learning began in 2020,
the City worked to develop and post instructional materials adapted for that learning mode on the SEE AND BE SEEN website. Additionally, teacher instructions were provided, along with lessons and lab worksheets for various lessons.
Neither Ms. Eutsler nor Ms.
Sampson was aware of the
curriculum components that
had been added. They were
certain that the teachers
were similarly unaware of
the resources. They thought
the lessons were practical
and could be useful for
independent study activities
as well. The District committed
to providing links to the SEE AND BE SEEN activities to the Curriculum and Instruction Department and posting it on the teacher resources website. 6 VIEW SRTS MASTER PLAN

Teachers have been asked to leave before dark due to problems with crime. 3rd Street East between Avenue J-8 & Avenue J-12
• Long distance between designated crossings.
• Students crossing street outside marked crosswalks to reach parents parked across the street.
Avenue J-8 between 2nd Street East & Stanridge Avenue
• Students crossing street outside marked crosswalks to reach parents parked across the street.
SURVEY RESPONSES
One respondent indicated that her first grader's trip to school was "very fun" but also "very unsafe," and noted, "I don't want to worry about her being snatched away."
Remembering her own walk to school, she recalled
the "nice wind blowing through your hair and on your
face." She would be Interested in knowing more about
enforcement, education, and encouragement activities.

Virtual Walk Audit
Walk audits are used across the nation and were employed to help the project team understand existing conditions, walking and bicycling patterns, locations of crossing guards, conflicts with traffic, concerns about sidewalks, crosswalks, bicycle facilities, signals, lighting, and social and environmental factors. The Joshua Elementary School virtual walk audit was held on October 8, 2021, via web conference.
Michelle White, Assistant Principal, represented the school; Matt Simons represented the City. With everyone able to view the SRTS Interactive Map, participants were able to quickly discuss general topics and concerns and identify specific problems.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
Stakeholder and Community Input
Walk audit comments in addition to those included previously in the SRTS Interactive Map Input section, are summarized below:
• The streets here are not wide—we needed to reduce congestion.
We've made changes because we wanted to increase traffic flow and allow dismissal at additional gates to disperse traffic. It has worked well.
o In the afternoon, Kindergarteners, 1st, and 2nd graders are dropped off, and in the afternoon, 1st and 2nd graders are picked up at 2nd Street East and Avenue J-8.
o Kindergarteners are dismissed from their building on a little pathway on Avenue J-8. However, Parents pick up kids,
walking all
over the place, not observing crosswalks.
• Probably less than 10% walk to school. [Fall 2021 student tallies reported 11% walking.]
• We had a bike rack that was hidden by construction for a while.
But it's really the scooters that kids use, and they bring them into the classroom.
• Biggest safety concern is 3rd Street East, because the street is narrow, and there's no crosswalk. Parents walk across and bring their kids back to them. Students aren't allowed to cross alone.
• In the fall, it’s 106, 107 degrees — we tell the kids being held before dismissal to stay under the shade trees. In the winter it’s in the 20s and 30s, and there’s crime.

SAFE ROUTES
TO SCHOOL
The City will partner with School
Districts and funders to expand
SEE AND BE SEEN's offerings, and
ensure educators and the general
public can easily access and use its
features. Driver education to improve
the safety of motorists and nonmotorists is included.
• Bike rodeos and clinics
• Pedestrian skills and safety rodeos
• SEE & BE SEEN lesson plans
Programmed and funded events,
public recognition, themed activities,
posters and signage will support
current walkers and rollers, and inspire
others to join them. School-focused
and community-wide events will be
identified and scheduled.
• Promote SRTS Calendar —
Walk & Roll events and challenges
• Walking school bus in nice
weather
Appropriate enforcement strategies
ensure that motorists, bicyclists and
pedestrians obey the rules of the road
near schools, improving safety while
encouraging active transportation.
Community enforcement programs
augment local law enforcement to
establish new norms that respect
student safety and help parents feel
confident as they send their children
to school.
• School Circulation Plans
• Support for crossing guards/
campus supervisors
• Sheriff's Dept. roadway safety talks
At the core of Lancaster's SRTS
is a commitment to deliver highquality and effective projects and programs to all school communities,
especially disadvantaged and lowincome students, students of color, and mobility-impaired students who
face challenges to walking, bicycling,
or rolling to school safely and
comfortably.
• Prioritize high-need schools
• RE-Cycle Bike Donation /
Repair Clinics
Successful, funded SRTS plans result
from ongoing, meaningful engagement
with the students, families, schools and
local community organizations who will
benefit from the projects and programs.
Community engagement that continues
beyond plan adoption ensures that
the SRTS is a living document and
that implementation of the plan is
responsive to intergenerational needs
for bicycle and pedestrian facilities and
programs as they change over time.
• Community events, family fun days
• Annual parent/guardian surveys
Clearly identified periodic
reporting allows schools and the
City to document progress, make
modifications, request needed
funding, and celebrate success.
• Annual student tallies
SRTS PROGRAM RECOMMENDATIONS
The Other 'E's
With City and School District programmatic
support, the principal can set the tone to
encourage and increase students who
walk or bike to school.
