Data-Driven Decisions Get 3rd-Party Data on distracted driving, speeding marketing campaign Stakeholder presentations (6) activations by neighborhoods (5) Rail Safety classes (4) Community Engagement Vision Zero Action Plan Engineering and Enforcement Curb extensions (4 sites) Identify pedestrian lighting priorities Define citywide protected bikeway network Define a neighborhood greenway network Sustained funding Construction protocols Street designations Supportive Policies Safer vehicles Reduced posted speed as allowed by CVC, Studies Use signal timing (10 sites) and 20mph target design speed Speed feedback signs (10 locations, rotating)
2-year Project Next Steps: Evaluation Council Update & Long-term Plan Resource Strategy
C. A Complete & Connected Transportation Network
Shared Mobility Increased options some lowemission, space-efficient Reduced VMT and Transportation costs Added congestion, especially in concentrated destinations where transit is needed What about? Service continuity/reliability Congestion blocking all movement Roadway clutter and safety Access for unbanked riders
Autonomous Vehicles Independent travel for youth, seniors, unlicensed people Productive use of travel time Possible safety improvements, unequally distributed Significant VMT and Congestion increases What about? Fleet services instead of private vehicle ownership Safety of people in the street Transit and commercial delivery jobs
What are other cities doing? Evaluated impact of technology and transportation Plan provides collective efforts to advance safety, justice and sustainability Created a New Mobility Program Have a framework for Autonomous Vehicles and Shared Mobility Permit process
What are other cities doing? Strategy to integrate shared mobility, technology, and AVs into department planning Steps to invest in modernizing equipment, information evaluation, data driven decisions Testing and piloting Autonomous Vehicles
What could Santa Monica do? Advocacy & Engagement Join State and Federal legislative advocacy Establish AV safety protocols Engage the public Education
What could Santa Monica do? Infrastructure & Services Curb space Management Continue building protected bike and pedestrian facilities Pursue additional transit-only lanes and HOV prioritization Pilot low-emission micro-transit service for shorter intra-city trips Mobility Hubs - co-locate shared mobility and EV charging Create permitting pilot for new shared mobility devices
What could Santa Monica do? Policy A foundation for future action Create performance metrics for street efficiency - % vehicle occupancy, SF per traveler Develop new street design criteria, incl. equipment consolidation Reorganize to successfully engage with mobility changes
What could Santa Monica do? Data Develop data-sharing, partnership, and performance protocols for new mobility Engage with third-party data platforms for secure open data
Council Direction Prioritize Vision Zero through the action list, and additional measures that will help us implement Vision Zero as a commitment and philosophy of the City. Expressed strong support for staff s efforts in moving us toward a safe, shared, equitable, and autonomous future with focus on equity and the environment. Amplify efforts to increase walking, biking and transit; the two-year Vision Zero action list; and pursue priorities in staff report regarding a shared and autonomous future. Directed City Manager to initiate efforts to break down impediments to attainment of the goals. Return during budget study session with recommendations to reallocate resources toward the goals to make them a more immediately reality including a Fiscal Plan, Capital Plan and Structural Plan. Look at best practices (incl. specifics mentioned: Go-Zones, Mobility Wallet, Decongestion Zones) and come back with pilots.
Next Steps Increase walk/bike/transit trips Continue design, outreach and implementation of bike and pedestrian projects identified in the Capital Projects list Safe Streets for 17 th Street Project Draft protected bikeways amendment to Bike Action Plan Support City Manager s office in developing fiscal, capital, structural response Vision Zero Initiate Vision Zero community engagement campaign Design & install Vision Zero jump start projects Complete & Connected Shared mobility pilot program Initiate Downtown curbside management study Identify strategies to create performance metrics for street efficiency (such as % vehicle occupancy, SF per traveler) for inclusion in roadway evaluation
Discussion How can Planning Commission support efforts toward: Increasing walking, biking and transit Expediting the 2-year Vision Zero Action List Priorities for shared and autonomous future
