SacRT Board 2026-08-24

The SacRT Board will meet on Monday, August 24, starting at 4:00 PM. The simplified agenda is below, with selected documents of interest to me, linked. There is no ‘Customer Service Response to Feedback and Comments’ item on the agenda, which means that the ongoing controversy over SacRT’s zero tolerance policy for fare evasion, strollers, shopping carts, and bicycles will not be addressed. This issue is not mentioned in the General Managers Report.

SacRT has added a ‘public participation‘ document, which addresses remote participation and comments. Comments in person and via email remain the same, as explained in the agenda.

I may have comments on agenda items between now and the board meeting.

SacATC 2026-08-20

The Sacramento Active Transportation Commission (SacATC) will meet this Thursday, August 20, 2026, starting at 5:30 PM, at the city council chambers. People can comment on agenda items in person at the meeting, or by making an eComment ahead of time on the city Upcoming Meeting Materials webpage. Though eComments up through the meeting become part of the record, commission members will not see eComments unless they are submitted early the day of the meeting. The format for speaking in person has changed. You can register ahead of time to speak on an agenda item, but apparently you can still fill out a speaker card at the time of the meeting. The comments format has changed a bit, but apparently works the same. Go to the city’s Public Comment page, and then select Sacramento Active Transportation Commission to see registration and comments.

I may post comments on the agenda items. Added a post on Automated Red Light Camera Program. If the bicycle parking program presentation is fixed (it appears to be corrupted), I may post on that item.

SacRT Board 2026-07-27

The SacRT Board will meet on Monday, July 27, starting at 4:00 PM. The simplified agenda is below, with selected documents of interest to me, linked. (pdf)

Note on item 3.1 Customer Service Response to Feedback and Comments. There is no information in this document. This continues SacRT practice of making this document available much later than the rest of the agenda, often just before the board meeting, and sometimes during the board meeting. I believe the intent to be so that the public can’t review this ahead of time and develop a response. The presentation was finally posted, shortly before the meeting: 3.1 Customer presentation.

The city seems to have changed its document storage to Google Drive, with no ability to download the main agenda, and the agenda pdf is corrupted, but I finally managed to get a copy, below.

There are three main agenda items. I have not had the chance to look at these items in detail, so have no recommendations to make at this time.

Public Comments-Matters Not on the Agenda Adjournment


Agenda item 3 Vision Zero School Safety Project

I support this project. The focus on lower-income schools with existing safety issues, and use of relatively inexpensive measures such as high visibility crosswalks, and curb and bike lane paint, are good.

  1. The diagrams, both in the staff report and the presentation, should include the posted speed limit of each street. RRFBs are inappropriate for speeds over 25 mph, due to driver non-compliance, so the posted speed is an important consideration.
  2. APS (accessible pedestrian signal) ‘upgrades’ (West Campus, Natomas, Smythe, Kenney) should implement appropriate accessible messages, but SHOULD NOT implement required push buttons. Nothing in PROWAG requires that APS signals require button press for permission to cross. Required ‘beg buttons’ are inappropriate at these locations, and at all locations in the city.
  3. Though permanent curb extensions are probably beyond the funding of these school projects, I was surprised to not see any temporary or quick-build curb extensions, which are one of the most effective measures for calming traffic.
