Task 2e: Stakeholder Engagement Meetings - Conduct two (2) stakeholder engagement meetings. Engagement meetings with key city stakeholders responsible for traffic safety improvements where participants will share their active transportation experiences, concerns, and needs. 2 meetings at $1800 each Task 3a: Education and Encouragement Event - Conduct one (1) education and encouragement events in the City of Santa Ana, based on recommendations from the "Active Transportation Cohort." SAAS will conduct one pop up demonstrations of an active transportation project or program and provide safety education and encouragement of walking and biking. The project team will help facilitate logistics and leverage partnerships to ensure successful event implementation. 1 event at $11,000 each Task 3b: Family Cycling Education Classes - Conduct three (3) family cycling education classes in the City of Santa Ana. At least one (1) of these classes will be available in Spanish. The class will merge the traditional Traffic Skills curriculum developed by the League of American Bicyclists with the basic skills taught to youth in a bike rodeo. The target population for students is families that seek to ride as a family and give them the confidence to begin riding a bicycle together. Riders will learn the rules of the road for entering traffic at intersections and riding in the street. The class is designed to increase bicyclist's safety awareness of common car/bike collisions, teach ways to prevent and avoid crashes and collisions, and emphasize the importance of helmet use when riding a bicycle. Each participant will receive a certificate of completion upon mastering the course. The on -bike training will consist of a family group riding exercise where participants will have the opportunity to test their new skills in a fun, safe, and family -friendly setting. 3 classes at $3000 each Task 3c: Luces Vivas Events - Conduct four (4) iLuces Vivas! Events to help encourage and provide education for walking and riding safely at night. iLuces Vivas! is an education and night light distribution program intended to provide education and encouragement for riding bikes and walking in Santa Ana safely at night. Our goal is to seek out people riding or walking without lights for various reasons, especially those who may not have the means or time to acquire lights on their own. SAAS and community partners will organize iLuces Vivas! to meet for four (4) street distributions at undisclosed locations throughout Santa Ana where night-time bicycle ridership and pedestrian activity is expected to be high and where the City has seen a history of incidents involving bicyclists and pedestrians at night. iLuces Vivas! members will provide bilingual education and encouragement activities to support the safety of pedestrians and bicyclists. Additionally, cyclists who are not wearing helmets will be fitted and provided a helmet. SAAS will be responsible for procuring front and rear bike lights and bike helmets that meet the OTS Buy America requirements. The number of units are reflected in the agreed upon budget. It is expected that 50- 100 light sets, and/or helmets will be distributed at each event, depending on expected bicyclist and pedestrian volume. Our goal will be to distribute all the lights and helmets allocated for each event. 4 events at $2300 each Bicycle Helmets - Helmets to be distributed during bicycle rodeos and other bicycle safety related events. Bicycle Safety Equipment - Safety equipment such as bicycle headlights/taillights, reflectors, and reflective arm and leg bands to be distributed during bicycle rodeos and other bicycle safety related events.
