Santa Ana Safe Mobility Plan I Revised Scope of Work <br />City of Santa Ana, CA <br />review current programs in peer cities and legal and procedural requirements and willingness to <br />offer a diversion program for youth and /or adults. <br />In addition, we will review the current database systems and processes used by the City for <br />managing and tracking collisions and citations. We will assess the these systems and practices; <br />identifying opportunities for increased efficiencies, simplified data sharing between agencies, and <br />improved evaluation of targeted enforcement activities. <br />Santa Ana Police Department Interviews <br />We will conduct interviews with Santa Ana Police Department Traffic Division and Records to <br />review current and potential future operations (including number of officers allocated to the <br />division by time of day and total hours worked) by task. We will also inquire about desired <br />organizational and procedural strategies to improve safety. We will use the interviews to inform <br />the potential enforcement recommendations and needed framework for establishing a council <br />priority to fund additional enforcement efforts. We expect that the interviews will also provide <br />the opportunity to increase sensitivity in the use of language towards the end of developing a <br />common vocabulary when talking about collisions in Santa Ana, <br />Review Collision Reporting and Data Management Procedures <br />Through interviews and observations, we will document current practices for transferring <br />collision report forms to the collision database; based on the collision analysis findings, we will <br />walk through the challenges in understanding primary collision factors from a sampling of <br />collision reports and discuss opportunities to improve the collision database to allow for <br />enhanced vulnerable roadway user collision analyses, opportunities to improve consistency of <br />collision reporting, and opportunities for enhancements to the collision report form. We will <br />conclude this task with recommendations for process improvements in the transmittal of <br />information into the database, <br />At the moment, our work suggests the following potential improvements: <br />• Educate officers on proper use of entering traffic MPC <br />• Add `Special Information' field from collision report form to database <br />• Revise form to include field for wrong way and sidewalk riding, respectively <br />Review Current Database Systems and Processes <br />We will review data collection, storage and management practices related to collisions and <br />citations and operations conditions. We will identify opportunities for increased efficiencies, <br />simplified data sharing between agencies, and improved evaluation of targeted enforcement <br />activities. <br />Compare Traffic Enforcement Practices with Citywide Collision Analysis <br />We will compare traffic enforcement practices with citywide collision analysis (including <br />enforcement recommendations) to identify any gaps between the current traffic operations <br />practices, staff hours necessary to address the existing collision patterns through directed or <br />targeted enforcement The bullets below describe our recommendations for enforcement of <br />primary Santa Ana collision trends related to the vehicle code, and we will also explore other <br />communities' success stories related to enforcement in the interviews. <br />Potential Bicycle Enforcement Actions: <br />NelsonlNyyaard Consulting Associates, Inc. 17 <br />25F -16 <br />
