AGENDA REPORT ITEM 2
DATE: November 17, 2022
FROM: Adam Fukushima, Active Transportation Manager
SUBJECT: ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION PLAN PERFORMANCE MONITORING
Recommendation: Receive an update on the Active Transportation Plan performance monitoring
and provide input to guide completion of the Summary Report
Background
The Active Transportation Plan (ATP) includes a set of performance measures to help gauge
progress on the plan’s implementation (see Attachment 1 for the matrix of performance measures).
Staff will report on these performance measures every other year, with a summary report . This
agenda item provides an update on the summary report effort.
Discussion
This is the first reporting on the performance measures of the Active Transportation Plan since its
adoption in February 2021. Significant progress has been made on the summary report with
encouraging information but there are some areas that are still in progress and will not be
completed until early 2023 given several methodological reasons explained in this report. See
attachment 2 for a DRAFT update on the performance measures matrix.
Performance Measure 1: Increase the share of citywide commute trips made by bicycling to 20%
and 12% by walking by 2030.
For this performance measure the ATP indicated a baseline mode share of 8.3% for bicycling and
7.2% for walking from the American Communities Survey, 5-year average (2013-2017) with a
caveat that subsequent reporting would be a summary of data from the U.S. Census, American
Community Survey, and subsequent Citywide Household Transportation Survey data. In addition,
during adoption of the ATP in 2021 staff indicated that it would further study whether traffic counts
can be an accurate representation of mode share.
Upon further analysis, staff has determined that the Citywide Household Transportation Survey is
likely the most reliable source of information on this performance measure but that traffic counts
can be informative as a supplemental reference point.
Active Transportation Committee Agenda Item 1, November 17, 2022 Page 2
While the American Community Survey (ACS) is a helpful tool in providing annual updates, it
only collects information on bicycling and walking to work and ignores all other trip types. Given
San Luis Obispo’s high student population, the recent trend of working from home, and the array
of non-work trips taken by others in the City such as for shopping, it alone is not a fully reliable
data source in calculating mode share trends. Just recently the ACS released 2020 data which
indicates that bicycle trips to work had decreased to 5.9% but that walking trips had increased
slightly to 7.7%. See attachment 3 for the 2020 survey results. Given that a high number of San
Luis Obispo residents were working from home during 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this
further raises questions about the ACS survey as a sole mechanism for tracking mode share. In
addition, the pandemic had the effect of transforming the employment market with many people
shifting jobs permanently from the service sector to other jobs that do not require as much daily
commuting to work.
Unlike the ACS, the Citywide Transportation Survey provides data on mode share for all trips, not
just work trips. The last citywide survey was conducted in 2019. Postcards were distributed to a
randomly generated list of 4,500 residents. A total of 709 residents completed the survey (16%
response rate), providing a statistically valid sample. The Transportation Survey shows that 16%
of residents reported using a bicycle for most trips, while 11% reported that they walk for most
trips. These results are likely a more accurate representation of mode share than the data indicated
by the American Communities Survey. Staff proposes to apply the 2019 survey results to complete
the first summary report of the ATP’s performance. In addition to applying the 2019 survey results,
staff is also analyzing traffic counts taken in the early fall of 2022 and to include the results as
another point of reference for measuring mode share. Staff expects the traffic count analysis to be
completed in time for the summary report to be complete in early 2023. Staff expects to conduct
the next citywide survey in the summer of 2023. However, if the committee desires these results
earlier, staff can begin the survey in early 2023 with completion of the summary report expected
in summer 2023.
Performance Measure 2: Consistent with the City’s Climate Action Plan and General Plan Mode
Share Objectives, decrease the share of total citywide trips made by single-occupant auto to 50%
or less by 2030
The 2019 Citywide Household Transportation Survey identifies single-occupant auto trips at 68%.
As with bicycle and pedestrian mode share discussed in Performance Measure 1 above, the update
of this data point is dependent on when the next Citywide Household Transportation Survey will
be conducted.
Performance Measure 3: Achieve Platinum Level status as Bicycle Friendly Community by the
League of American Bicyclists
Currently at Gold Status pending application renewal in fall of 2023. See attachment 4 for the
latest Report Card.
Active Transportation Committee Agenda Item 1, November 17, 2022 Page 3
Performance Measure 4: Continue progress towards the City's Vision Zero goal of eliminating
traffic fatalities and severe injuries, endeavoring towards a trend of zero fatal collisions by 2030.
The three-year total (2019-21) reflects an increase to 8 fatal collisions and 38 severe injury
collisions, mirroring national and statewide trends of higher collisions in the same period due to
higher speeds and lower vehicular volume on streets during the pandemic.
Performance Measure 5: Complete installation of the Active Transportation Plan's Tier 1
bicycle and pedestrian network by 2030
In the FY 2021-23, the City has completed 26% of the Tier 1 network including 19% of new
low-stress bikeway mileage and 15% of new enhanced pedestrian/bike crossings. See attachment
5 for a map of the Tier 1 network and completed projects.
Performance Measure 6: Consistent with the General Plan Circulation Element policies, strive
to allocate transportation funding across various transportation modes approximately
proportional to the General Plan Modal Split Objectives
This task is in progress, but expenditures are expected to be proportional to modal split
objectives.
Performance Measure 7: Double the mode share for all bicycle and pedestrian trips for public
K-12 schools in the city
SLO Regional Rideshare conducted a survey of local K-12 schools in the spring of 2022. Results
showed the following:
• Bicycle, scooter, or skate - 20.7% • Walk - 19%
• School Bus - 13% • Drive alone or only with family - 43%
• Carpool - 4% • Public Transit - 1.79%
Performance Measure 8: Strive to achieve the same demographic representation of those using
active transportation modes as those using single occupancy motor vehicles.
The 2019 Citywide Household Transportation Survey results show the following demographic
information on gender:
• Bicycle - 70% Male, 30% Female
• Walk - 59% Male, 41% Female
• Drive Alone - 49% Male, 51% Female
Active Transportation Committee Agenda Item 1, November 17, 2022 Page 4
For all modes, "decline to state" gender was less than 1%. Demographic information will be
updated in 2023 with the citywide survey update. However, if there is a desire for more extensive
demographic information, staff recommends using data from the ACS given that questionnaire
length is a factor in survey completion rates.
Next Steps
Staff expects the Summary Report of the performance measures to be complete in early 2023.
However, if the committee desires an earlier update of the Citywide Household Transportation
Survey, the Summary Report would be complete in summer of 2023 at the earliest.
Recommendation: Receive an update on the Active Transportation Plan performance monitoring
and provide input to guide completion of the Summary Report

»Continue to expand and improve San Luis Obispo's low-stress
bike network and ensure that your community follows a bicycle
facility selection criteria that increases separation and protection
of bicyclists based on levels of motor vehicle speed and volume,
to maximize safety and comfort for bicyclists of all ages and
abilities.
»Install a bicycle wayfinding system with distance and
destination information at strategic locations around the
community, integrating preferred on-street and off-street
facilities. Wayfinding may be particularly useful at intersections
and along routes that may be likely to attract non-regular bicycle
riders.
»Continue to increase the amount of high quality bicycle
parking throughout the community, particularly near transit
stops and urban activity centers. Increase investments to ensure
that transit stops are easily accessible by bike to enable more
multi-modal trips with bicycles and transit.
»Consider launching a bike share system that is open to the
public. Bike sharing is a convenient, cost effective, and healthy
way of encouraging locals and visitors to make short trips by
bike, make bicycling more accessible to all, and to bridge the
'last mile' between public transit and destinations.
»Work with local League Cycling Instructors (LCIs) to offer
Bicycle Friendly Driver training to motorists in San Luis Obispo,
particularly to professional drivers and transit/fleet operators.

AGENDA REPORT ITEM 3
DATE: November 17, 2022
FROM: Adam Fukushima, Active Transportation Manager
SUBJECT: COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FY 2023-25 CITY BUDGET
GOALS
Recommendation
Recommend a prioritized list of budget goals for the upcoming FY 2023-25 Financial Plan based
on the Active Transportation Plan goals and priority projects.
Background
Every two years the City Council adopts a Financial Plan (sometimes called a two -year budget).
This Plan spells out how the City will spend money on programs and projects for the next two
years. As part of this process, all advisory groups are invited to submit budget goals for Council
consideration.
Discussion
Council goals, by their nature, usually tend to be broader in scope than the work programs
developed by advisory bodies. The City Council is seeking advisory body input on:
• What are the most important goals the City should pursue in the next two years?
• Why is each goal important as a community priority?
• How might the goal be accomplished (creative funding or implementation ideas)?
Given the projected fiscal constraints for the next budget, the Finance Department is
recommending that goals which are already in progress take a higher priority than brand new goals.
To help guide the Committee in identifying the most important projects or programs to pursue,
members should review the following:
• Advisory Bodies 2023-25 Financial Plan Goal Setting Parameters (Attachment 1)
• Active Transportation Committee Budget Goal Recommendations for FY 2021-23
(Attachment 2)
• List of funded active transportation projects from the 2021-23 Financial Plan. (Attachment 3).
Note that any costs identified beyond 2023 have not yet received funding approvals but are
included for planning and forecasting purposes.
• “2021-23 Financial Plan at a Glance” outlines the “Major City Goals” in the City’s current
budget. (Attachment 4)
Active Transportation Committee Agenda Item 1, November 17, 2022 Page 2
• Active Transportation Plan Tier 1 projects with ATC prioritization (Attachment 5). The list
contains the top projects the City will pursue for funding which have the highest likelihood to
increase bicycling and walking in the City with a goal to complete the Tier 1 network by 2030.
The list was prioritized by the ATC on September 16, 2021.
• Bicycle Friendly Community Report Card 2019, which provides specific suggestions for
improvements by the League of American Bicyclists for SLO (Attachment 6)
Based on the Active Transportation Plan and the ATC’s prioritized list of Tier 1 projects, the
committee should consider the following projects that correspond to upcoming paving schedule in
the years 2021-23, as well as Vision Zero Safety projects, and projects related to private
developments:
Projects
1) Active Transportation Plan Tier 1 Project Deployment
a. Higuera Complete Streets Project: Complete design and construction. While this
project has been recommended $6.95 million of state Active Transportation Program
funds it would still require 20% local match funds.
b. Foothill Blvd Quick Build Project: Design and Construction
c. Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon at South/King: Project is funded but needs to be
programmed in the budget.
d. Roundabout at California/Taft: This project is a Tier 1 crossing improvement and
would provide a better connection across California Blvd to the Railroad Safety Trail
and improve safety at the California/Taft intersection. Planning and design has already
begun but still needs some construction funding.
e. Railroad Safety Trail along Bullock Lane and Orcutt Rd Railroad Crossing
Improvements: This project would provide a continuous shared use path from Tank
Farm Rd to the train station but would likely require a city-initiated project to acquire
approvals from Union Pacific.
f. Broad Street (South to Orcutt) Quick Build Project: Design and Construction
g. Tank Farm Road Shared Use Path: Design, complete environmental study, acquire
right-of-way in FY 2023-25 and construct in an outlying year. The design and
environmental study are conditions of approval for the 600 Tank Farm project. Given
that Chevron may not develop the property to the west of 600 Tank Farm Rd for 5-10
years, this project would advance the right of way and construction effort as a city led
project so that the project can be completed earlier.
2) Complete Street Elements of Annual Paving Projects
a. Monterey (Santa Rosa to California)
b. California (Phillips to Monterey)
c. Johnson (Buchon to Laurel)
d. Santa Barbara (Leff to Broad)
e. Palm (Pepper to Santa Rosa)
f. Orcutt (Laurel to Johnson)
g. Pavement Areas 8 and 1 (non-arterial streets in the neighborhoods east of Santa Rosa)
3) Continue Miscellaneous $100k Annually for Bike and Pedestrian Minor
Improvements
Active Transportation Committee Agenda Item 1, November 17, 2022 Page 3
4)Continue Funding for Resurfacing of Shared Use Paths
Programs
1)Initiate a Safe Routes to School Plan For Another Local School per the ATP
2)Per the Climate Action Plan, Initiate a Bike Share Program if Feasible Without
Significant City Funding and Staff Resources
Per the request of the Committee, Attachment 7 includes the results of a user study of the
bike share program in the City of Santa Barbara
Next Steps
The ATC’s recommended goals will be transmitted to the Finance Department and a master list
of all advisory body goal recommendations will be published ahead of the Council Goal Setting
Workshop in February 2021.
Recommendation
Recommend a prioritized list of budget goals for the upcoming FY 2023-25 Financial Plan based
on the Active Transportation Plan goals and priority projects.

Item 3, Attachment 4, Page 1 of 2
Capital Improvement Projects account for a major
portion of the City’s budget. Capital Projects help
maintain or improve a City asset, often called
infrastructure (roads, bridges, community facilities, etc.)
Your Local Sales Tax Dollars at Work
The Local Revenue Measure – also known as Measure G20 – is a one-and-a-half percent local sales tax. It
protects and maintains essential services and facilities, such as open space preservation, bike lanes and
sidewalks, public safety, neighborhood street paving and code enforcement, flood protection, senior programs,
and other vital services and capital improvement projects.

»Continue to expand and improve San Luis Obispo's low-stress
bike network and ensure that your community follows a bicycle
facility selection criteria that increases separation and protection
of bicyclists based on levels of motor vehicle speed and volume,
to maximize safety and comfort for bicyclists of all ages and
abilities.
»Install a bicycle wayfinding system with distance and
destination information at strategic locations around the
community, integrating preferred on-street and off-street
facilities. Wayfinding may be particularly useful at intersections
and along routes that may be likely to attract non-regular bicycle
riders.
»Continue to increase the amount of high quality bicycle
parking throughout the community, particularly near transit
stops and urban activity centers. Increase investments to ensure
that transit stops are easily accessible by bike to enable more
multi-modal trips with bicycles and transit.
»Consider launching a bike share system that is open to the
public. Bike sharing is a convenient, cost effective, and healthy
way of encouraging locals and visitors to make short trips by
bike, make bicycling more accessible to all, and to bridge the
'last mile' between public transit and destinations.
»Work with local League Cycling Instructors (LCIs) to offer
Bicycle Friendly Driver training to motorists in San Luis Obispo,
particularly to professional drivers and transit/fleet operators.
