● Project Management and Coordination ● Analysis of City of Los Angeles Safety Corridors ● Identify locations most susceptible to correction by Speed Safety systems ○ Locations where vehicle speeds already exceed posted speed limits by 11+ MPH ● Identify locations most likely to achieve the goals outlined in AB 645 ○ Reduction in 85th percentile speed compared to data collected before the system was in operation ○ 20% reduction in vehicles exceeding posted speed limit by 10 MPH ○ 20% reduction in violators who receive two (2) or more violations ● Identify locations susceptible to a reduction in speed-related crashes ○ Utilize existing collision profiles ● Analysis of School Zones ○ School Zones are defined in CVC 40802(b)(2) as follows ● For purposes of this section, “school zone” means that area approaching or passing a school building or the grounds thereof that is contiguous to a highway and on which is posted a standard “SCHOOL” warning sign, while children are going to or leaving the school either during school hours or during the noon recess period. “School zone” also includes the area approaching or passing any school grounds that are not separated from the highway by a fence, gate, or other physical barrier while the grounds are in use by children if that highway is posted with a standard “SCHOOL” warning sign. ● Analysis of Street Racing Corridors ● Defined as locations with calls to law enforcement to respond to the area for at least four (4) separate incidences of a motor vehicle speed contest or motor vehicle exhibition of speed within the two (2) years prior to placement of the speed safety system. ● Analysis of Low-Income Neighborhoods ○ Per AB645: if potential deployment locations of systems are predominantly in low-income neighborhoods, a determination of why these locations experience high fatality and injury collisions due to unsafe speed must be determined. ○ For locations identified in previous tasks that are in low-income neighborhoods, additional analysis should be done to make the determination noted above and determine whether they should be included in the final list. ○ This includes documentation of the location’s high fatality and injury collisions due to unsafe speed. ● Identification of relevant local stakeholder organizations, including racial equity, privacy protection, and economic justice groups who have local knowledge or experience with the issue of traffic violence resulting from speeding ● Develop an outreach plan and work collaboratively with identified relevant local stakeholder organizations, including racial equity, privacy protection, and economic justice groups. ○ This work includes presenting a draft Use Policy and draft Impact Report for community input and submitting a report regarding feedback received during engagement about proposed policies. ● Draft Speed Safety System Impact Report ○ Draft final language satisfying the requirements of AB 645 with revisions recommended by engaged stakeholders during the engagement process. ○ The final language of the Impact Report is inclusive of the final list of 125 system locations. ● Draft Speed Safety System Use Policy ○ Draft final language satisfying the requirements of AB 645 with revisions recommended by engaged stakeholders during the engagement process. ● Public Information Campaign ○ Create a Public Information Campaign Plan to support both a 30-day public comment period on the Use Policy and Impact Report and the required 30-day public information campaign for the launch of the Speed Safety System program. This campaign includes information relating to when the systems would begin detecting violations and where the systems would be utilized. ● Create support graphics and communications for both 30-day public information campaigns
