BACKGROUND: The City of Saratoga Traffic Safety Commission (TSC) proposes the following work plan for FY 24-25: 1. Investigate, review, and analyze traffic safety issues raised by community members. 2. Refine the TSC process so that it continues to be more efficient and effective. 3. Provide a respectful space where community members are able to seek solutions for traffic safety concerns. 4. Collaborate with schools and community members to develop the Safe Routes to School Master Plan. 5. Promote education to the community and schools regarding traffic, bicycle, and pedestrian safety, through public meetings. 6. Review projects on the Capital Improvement Project list and prioritize for funding. 7. Continue to develop a Traffic Safety Commission Handbook that is unique to the roles and responsibilities of TSC. 2023 SUMMARY The Traffic Safety Commission has regular meetings every other month beginning in January, resulting in six regular meetings each year. In 2023, the Traffic Safety Commission met in the months of January, March, May, July, and September, with a special meeting in August to review ways to cut the TSC workload, and another special meeting in early November to make up for the cancelled November regular meeting. The traffic safety concerns reviewed by the TSC vary and include speeding, sight distance issues, crosswalk safety, restricted parking, and pedestrian and bicyclist safety. The TSC gives recommendations to the City on how to resolve the traffic safety issues. Often times, the recommendation requires changes to the street or intersection to improve safety. Sometimes the recommendations involve a simple striping project or sign installation, while others require a more 19 significant change, such as lighted crosswalks, speed tables, or permanent radar feedback signs. Simple projects such as striping can take six to nine months to complete due to project prioritizing. Projects requiring changes in infrastructure might take as long as two years to begin due to budget constraints. In recent years, the TSC has reviewed traffic safety concerns that require more comprehensive solutions. This is mostly because these same streets have already been reviewed in previous years and the incremental improvements have already been implemented but the traffic safety issues have not been completely resolved. Currently, the TSC is developing a comprehensive solution for Quito Road. Preliminary plans have been developed and City staff will develop an outreach plan to communicate to community members about the proposed changes. The table below shows the 2023 traffic safety recommendations. (Note: The matrix does not include vegetation trimmings for sight distance, directed enforcement requests, recommendations that involved further TSC review, and items that resulted in no action.) Items identified as In progress will be implemented through a road markings contract over the next several months.
