Safe Streets & Roads for All FY24 Demonstration Project- Petaluma (C16102536)

The City of Petaluma is advancing a Safe Streets & Roads for All FY24 Demonstration Project to improve transportation safety across four key local streets: Ely Blvd S between E Washington St and Frates Rd, Crinella Dr between McGregor Ave and Casa Grande Rd, Park Ln between Maria Dr and Caulfield Ln, and Baywood Dr between S McDowell Blvd and Louise Dr. The initiative will implement quick-build traffic calming and safety enhancements designed to benefit all road users, including pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists, through the installation and removal of roadway markings, signage, and bolted vertical safety elements that allow for rapid deployment and flexibility. These improvements aim to reduce speeds, increase visibility, and promote safer interactions among different modes of travel without requiring extensive construction or long-term disruptions. The project is federally funded under the Safe Streets and Roads for All program and is being managed by the City of Petaluma with Bjorn Griepenburg serving as the primary point of contact for inquiries. Though the solicitation number has not been assigned, the project was forecasted on June 16, 2026, with performance expected to take place entirely within Petaluma, California, in the 94954 zip code. The approach prioritizes cost-effective, temporary-to-permanent solutions that can be adjusted based on community feedback and real-world effectiveness, emphasizing safety, equity, and accessibility for all residents regardless of their mode of transportation.
