Recap: San Diego FC Chrome ball Tour, Chula Vista

This past weekend, Circulate had the opportunity to host a table at the San Diego FC Chrome ball tour in Chula Vista. Circulate interacted with dozens of event attendees, most of whom were Chula Vista residents.

We collected feedback on what mode of transportation event-goers used to arrive at the event and asked them to place stickers on a map to show where they would like to see crosswalk improvements in Chula Vista. Additionally, we handed out bicycle and pedestrian safety gear and educational materials that children enjoyed.

We thank the Office of Traffic Safety, the City of Chula Vista, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and the San Diego FC team for making this event possible!

ATP Presentation for City of Banning Planning Commission

On Wednesday, May 1st, Circulate Senior Planner Octavio Garcia traveled to the City of Banning to help present a draft of the Active Transportation Plan (ATP) to the Planning Commission.

In collaboration with KTUA, Circulate has been providing support for the development of Banning’s ATP since 2022. Over the past few years, we have collected hundreds of survey responses and conducted numerous engagement events, community workshops, and stakeholder advisory group meetings to gather public feedback on Banning’s active transportation needs. We’re close to the finish line – just a few more presentations to go!
