The Shasta Regional Transportation Agency (SRTA) is considering a proposal to develop a comprehensive safety action plan and safety campaign to improve road safety in the region. This plan aligns with SRTA's goals to ensure a safe transportation system. The proposal recommends the board of directors provide input on the draft scope of work and direct staff to apply for a Sustainable Communities Planning Grant. Over the past decade, there have been 2,037 crashes in the Shasta Region, resulting in 71 fatalities and 2,668 injuries, 380 of them serious. The planning effort will analyze traffic safety data to identify high-risk areas and contributing factors for crashes. SRTA will work with regional partners to develop effective safety improvements and a safety education campaign. If awarded the grant, the project is expected to begin in fall 2027 and finish by June 2030. The project budget is estimated between $300,000 and $350,000, with a local match of 11.47 percent, estimated between $34,410 and $40,145. Completing this safety action plan is necessary to be eligible for federal Safe Streets for All funding for construction of safety projects.

The Shasta Regional Transportation Agency (SRTA) is proposing changes to its Conflict of Interest policy to comply with updates from Senate Bill 852, effective January 1, 2026.

The Fiscal & Policy Committee reviewed the changes and supports the staff recommendation. There is no fiscal impact from these changes.

The Shasta Regional Transportation Agency (SRTA) is considering contributing $497,157 in Low Carbon Transit Operations Program (LCTOP) funds for Fiscal Year 2025/26 to the Redding Area Bus Authority (RABA). These funds are meant for projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve mobility. RABA requested $140,000 for free and reduced rides and $357,157 for expanded microtransit. Staff reviewed these projects and found them consistent with SRTA's LCTOP policy. They recommend that the board approve the funds and adopt Resolution 26-09, which allows the executive director to act as the authorized agent for these funds. The RABA board approved submitting the project applications, which are due to Caltrans by October 30, 2026. The board may choose to decline contributing funds and suggest different projects that meet LCTOP criteria. The Fiscal & Policy Committee reviewed the projects and concurred with the staff recommendations. Adopting Resolution 26-09 allows funds to flow directly to RABA for use, should the projects be approved for funding.
