On April 17, 2024, at the 25th Annual American Public Works Association PWX SoCal Conference, City of Santa Ana Public Works Senior Traffic Engineer, Ruben Castaneda gave an engaging presentation on the “Santa Ana Vision Zero Plan” that has a goal to achieve zero pedestrian and bicyclists fatalities in Santa Ana.  The presentation discussed the plan’s analysis, findings, and recommendations.

The conference was  held in the City of Carson and attended by many Southern California Public Works professionals from both private and public sector.  For additional insights on the Santa Ana Vision Zero Plan visit https://www.santa-ana.org/vision-zero/.
