    "The City of #Salinas encourages residents to file official traffic calming requests through the Salinas Connect app [salinasca.qscend.com/311] or directly at City Hall [i.e., submit a request to Traffic Calming / Neighborhood Traffic Management Program salinas.gov/Your-Government/De ].” — from "Busy Salinas intersection has neighbors begging for safety changes” by Briana Mathaw, #KION kion546.com/news/top-stories/2.

  8. The Monterey County seat and its largest city, Salinas, was selected as one of 13 projects throughout California to receive #ActiveTransportation Program (ATP) funds intended to improve walking and biking routes in disadvantaged communities. ksbw.com/article/salinas-award

    The Active Transportation Program is the state's only dedicated funding source for walking and biking
    projects. "With a reduced funding level of $168.7 million, the Commission faced an unprecedented shortfall in funding for its most oversubscribed competitive program that is critical to meeting the state’s #climate, #safety, and #equity goals. The Commission received 277 project applications requesting $2.5 billion in funds for the 2025 program cycle – about 15 times the $168.7 million that is available.” The #Salinas application received a perfect score.
