City of Santa Ana | First Street Multimodal Corridor Technical Memorandum 41 Workshop 2 Input The in-person workshop was held over two consecutive days (September 17 and 18 from 5:00 to 7:00PM) as an open house style with Spanish and Vietnamese interpreters on hand to assist participants. A series of stations were set up to help participants navigate the eight options being presented (refer to Photo 7). The stations included “Existing Conditions”, “Design Options”, “Aerial Maps”, “Curb Space and Bus Stops”, and “Railroad Tracks Configuration” as well as a welcome table and a family table. Workshop participants were encouraged to provide feedback on potential design options for the corridor, connect with the Project Team, suggest improvements to access and travel options, and learn more about the next stages of the project. A total of 69 attendees signed in at the workshop over the course of the two days and 30 comment cards were collected. Participants were encouraged to participate in a preference activity where they placed pom-pom balls in containers that represent the options that they liked. While three pom-pom balls were provided to each participant, additional balls were provided if requested. The preference activity (pom-pom balls) revealed a strong preference for bus lanes. Figures 21 and 22 below break down the results of the preference survey by lane configuration and by pedestrian and bicycle zone configuration. Figure 21.
