The City and comnnuaity partners will organize iLuces Vivas! to meet for ten (10) sweet <br />distributions at undisclosed locations throughout Santa Ana where night-time bicycle ridership <br />and pedestrian activity is expected to be high and where the City has seen a history of incidents <br />involving bicyclists and pedestrians at night. iLuces Vivas! members will stop people who are <br />riding hikes or walking without lights in order to give them front and rear Lights (which can be <br />worn on slices cr belts of pedestrians) along with an information "spoke card" that explains the <br />law for riding at night as well as tips they should know for night-time safety. The spoke cards are <br />printed in English and Spanish and iLuces Vivas! will include at least a few members who speak <br />Spanish (as well as female members to encourage female riders to stop). Additionally, cyclists <br />who are not wearing helmets will be fitted and provided a helmet. <br />The selected consultant will be responsible for procuring 1,000 helmets and 1,000 lights that <br />meet the OTS Buy America requirements. It is expected that 50-100 light sets and/or helmets <br />will be distributed at each event, depending on expected. bicyclist and pedestrian volume. Our <br />goal will be to distribute all the lights and helmets allocated for each event. <br />Task A: Conduct Pedestrian and Bicycle Traffic Safety Fairs <br />Conduct four (4) pedestrian and bicycle traffic safety fairs. In the spirit of a bike rodeo, the <br />Traffic Safety Fair would teach students how to interact with the roadway and traffic. Whether <br />they are walking or biking, the goal of the course would be to increase safety awareness and <br />confidence of the student. The class would cover everything from using the different intersection <br />devices, bicycling in the roadway, bicycle safety inspections, and. helmet fit. The course would <br />use a combination of simulation and hands on training to teach the student how to make safe <br />decisions while walking or riding within the roadway. The training would utilize chalk, <br />cardboard cut-outs, arid other techniques to simulate possible roadway conditions/hazards. <br />Classes would be conducted on a safe flat area on local public parks and/or school grounds. Age <br />appropriate bicycles would be made available for youth that do not have their bicycle with them. <br />Students that complete both the pedestrian and bicycle section would receive a fitee helmet and <br />lights. <br />City of Santa Ana RFP 17-113 <br />PageAl <br />
