14. REPORT ITEMS
14.1 REPORT - AUTHORIZATION TO SUBMIT REQUEST TO FEDERAL
HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION FOR INSTALLATION OF RED BUS
ONLY PAVEMENT MARKINGS IN DOWNTOWN SANTA ROSA
BACKGROUND: In response to concerns from the transit operators and
transit service representatives, we are looking at ways to reduce the
number of private vehicles that enter and navigate through the Transit
Mall. The presence of unauthorized vehicles creates significant safety
concerns for bus operators and pedestrians that would not expect to
encounter private vehicles. The Transit Mall is regularly congested with
buses from five different operators (CityBus, Sonoma County Transit,
Golden Gate Transit, Mendocino Transit and Greyhound) that
load/unload passengers against the curb and use the center lane to
navigate in and out between the stopped busses. In addition,
thousands of pedestrians traverse the Transit Mall attempting to catch
their bus and transferring between buses. While we credit our
professional bus operators for the limited number of incidents, there
have been numerous close calls that could be avoided by providing
City of Santa Rosa
Regular Meeting Minutes
Page 12 of 16
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes - Final July 18, 2017
better visual information to the public to limit unauthorized vehicles.
There are currently large signs at both entrances noting “Do Not Enter”,
“Authorized Vehicles Only” and “Bus Only”. Unfortunately, this
messaging has proven to not be adequate. In that regard, staff has
been researching alternative techniques to improve the visual
recognition that this area is just for buses.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Transportation and
Public Works Department that the Council, by motion, authorize the
Director of Transportation and Public Works to submit a request for
experimentation to California Traffic Control Devices Committee
(CTCDC) and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to add red
colored (BUS ONLY) pavement markings at two locations in downtown
Santa Rosa.

14. REPORT ITEMS
14.1 REPORT - AUTHORIZATION TO SUBMIT REQUEST TO FEDERAL
HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION FOR INSTALLATION OF RED BUS
ONLY PAVEMENT MARKINGS IN DOWNTOWN SANTA ROSA
BACKGROUND: In response to concerns from the transit operators and
City of Santa Rosa
Regular Meeting Agenda and Summary Report
Page 9 of 13
City Council JULY 18, 2017
transit service representatives, we are looking at ways to reduce the
number of private vehicles that enter and navigate through the Transit
Mall. The presence of unauthorized vehicles creates significant safety
concerns for bus operators and pedestrians that would not expect to
encounter private vehicles. The Transit Mall is regularly congested
with buses from five different operators (CityBus, Sonoma County
Transit, Golden Gate Transit, Mendocino Transit and Greyhound) that
load/unload passengers against the curb and use the center lane to
navigate in and out between the stopped busses. In addition,
thousands of pedestrians traverse the Transit Mall attempting to catch
their bus and transferring between buses. While we credit our
professional bus operators for the limited number of incidents, there
have been numerous close calls that could be avoided by providing
better visual information to the public to limit unauthorized vehicles.
There are currently large signs at both entrances noting “Do Not Enter”,
“Authorized Vehicles Only” and “Bus Only”. Unfortunately, this
messaging has proven to not be adequate. In that regard, staff has
been researching alternative techniques to improve the visual
recognition that this area is just for buses.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Transportation and
Public Works Department that the Council, by motion, authorize the
Director of Transportation and Public Works to submit a request for
experimentation to California Traffic Control Devices Committee
(CTCDC) and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to add red
colored (BUS ONLY) pavement markings at two locations in downtown
Santa Rosa.
