Bus Stop Safety Improvement Plan
5.6.2 Planning and Assessment The second step formalizes the program and infrastructure development to address the items found in the ‘Identify the Needs’ phase. The planning and assessment phase can entail various scales of effort from a single bus stop site design to a citywide ATP or a citywide collision analysis such as a Local Road Safety Plan. Citywide planning can vary from the macro, such as network analysis (potentially modifying the location of the network based on analysis) to the micro, such as design Table 5-31: Implementation Chart - Planning and Assessment
ideas for bus stops. Depending on the need of the local jurisdiction a citywide ATP can assess collisions, first and last mile connectivity, Complete Streets planning and design, and providing a list of recommendations citywide. ATP’s can also include programs for bicycle, pedestrian, and transit user safety, not just infrastructure. If a corridor has been identified as a priority, a stand-alone Complete Streets plan can also be pursued to design and implement improvements at a more detailed level. Grants can be pursued for these planning efforts through, but not limited to, the Caltrans Active Transportation Program and SCAG’s Sustainable Communities Program.
