Just wanted to keep you in the loop. I am not sure if these will be routed to you for review and approval, but they incorporate all your requested changes based on your preliminary review.

I’ll send those details over your way to help guide your designer. Also, you will need to submit the revised plan sheets showing these new features for City approval before moving to construct these measures. I’d suggest sending a draft copy of the plans my way for concurrence, after which I’ll connect you with our permit tech to get these taken in for formal review/approval.

I believe you said they did the earlier bumps on Ranch House. I would like to get these installed in short order.

I think I understand what you are looking for. I don’t see the exact location you are wanting the speed table along Tiburon. If you could include that with dimensions ans well as dimensions on the two on Righetti Ranch Road, we can have our engineers start to revise these plans for your review and approval. Travis From: Schwartz, Luke <LSchwart@slocity.org> Sent: Thursday, February 9, 2023 4:06 PM To: Travis Fuentez Subject: RE: Righetti Traffic Study status Travis, Attached, please find staff recommendations for traffic calming strategies to address the high speeds identified in the Righetti Ranch traffic monitoring study (also attached). I’ve tried to avoid unreasonable recommendations that would require significant costs, such as permanent corner bulbouts, raised intersection construction/reconstruction, etc., focusing on features that have proven effectiveness with a high cost/benefit. Here’s a summary of what we’re recommending: 1. Righetti Ranch Road south of Twin Creeks 1. Install a left yellow edge stripe adjacent to the medians in both northbound and southbound directions, which visually narrows the traffic lane widths, which can help with reducing vehicle speeds. 2. Righetti Ranch Road between Tiburon and Hayfield 1. Install 2 speed tables per City Standard Plans (included in attachment) 3. Tiburon between Righetti Ranch Road and Orcutt Road 1. Where on-street bike lanes exists, add a striped bike buffer to visually narrow the auto lane widths, which can help with reducing vehicle speeds 2. Install one speed table just west of Imel. Use City Standard speed table modified to keep the edges of the table out of the on-street bike lane, which can create a trip/fall hazard. Westcreek just constructed 2 such tables on Ranch House Road and I’ve included the details showing this modified table design in the attached. Please let me know when you’ve had a chance to review and digest so we can discuss next steps. With Westcreek’s recent traffic calming on Ranch House Road, they had the same engineer that prepared their original PIPs add these traffic calming elements and submitted as plan revisions under the original FMAP case. They installed their speed tables a few weeks after plan approval and we subsequently released their bond for traffic calming mitigation. I imagine we could do something similar here.

It looks like we do have speeding issues on both Righetti Ranch Road and Tiburon. I’d like to spend a little more time reviewing potential traffic calming mitigation strategies in coordination with our Transit and Fire staff, but even if the ultimate recommendation was to install speed tables on each of these segments w/ conservative spacing (300-600 feet between each table), the total cost should be well within the $200K bond. I would be supportive of clearing the $25K bond, but continuing to hold the $200K bond until these solutions are in place.

Any chance you can review the study today or tomorrow. I would like your ok to release the small $25k bond as we discussed. This will leave you the duplicate bond for $200K. Let me know so Hal and Matt can issue the release once you are comfortable.
