OmniTrans Bus Stop Safety Improvement Plan

Bus Stop Safety Improvement Plan

Bus Stop Improvements There are nine existing bus stops at the Fontana Transit Center. The nine bus stops support a high volume of riders with a park & ride lot, security patrols, lighting, and portable toilets. The transit center resides in the middle of multi- and single-family residences with retail and light industry centers a short walk to the north, south and west. Transit users can get connections throughout the region on the connecting bus routes. As shown in Figure 5-4, the feasibility of addition of shelters should be evaluated. Sidewalks are in good condition and stops with shelters are wide enough to support the additional amenity. Bench locations that currently do not have a shelter may have sidewalks that are too narrow to support a shelter and meet ADA requirements. Security cameras are not provided, but security patrols are provided. Recommendations at the Fontana Transit Center will include surveillance cameras, PA system, and electronic real-time screens.

RECOMMENDED BUS STOP IMPROVEMENTS

Provide 5 overhead shelters for shade-include the following: -Posters for transit code of conduct -Poster for smartphone app with real-time bus arrival, schedules, and payment option. -Lights integrated into the bus shelter. -Surveillance cameras -PA system -Electronic real-time screens

1. City of Fontana is responsible for installation and maintenance of customer shelters and lighting

Additional security may be needed in areas of high ridership, regular activity, and several connections to other transit routes.

1. Explore an Transit or Fare Ambassador Program to assist transit users 2. Explore the CAHOOTS, or similar program if homelessness becomes an issue
