Dear ATP Grant Selection Committee,

I am writing to express my support for the City of Santa Cruz’s Active Transportation Program application for the Swanton Delaware Multiuse Path. The infrastructure that will be improved through this grant will create a safe, direct route between Westside neighborhoods, Natural Bridges State Park and Beach, the Seymour Marine Exploration Center, and the UCSC Coastal Sciences Campus and improve active transportation for the entire community. Additionally, this project connects to other separated facilities, continuing to build out a safe and separate network for active transportation.
Our community is invested in creating more spaces for people to safely walk and bike for transportation and recreation. As we’ve seen an increase in development in this westside neighborhood, the roadway connecting key community destinations is not designed for bicyclists and pedestrians to safely travel. The addition of a multiuse path, protected bike lane, sidewalk, and intersection treatments will increase safety and access for active transportation.

I encourage you to support this valuable project. The Swanton Delaware Multiuse Path is an important project to connect the Santa Cruz community via safe active transportation infrastructure. I strongly support funding this project to improve active transportation in the City of Santa Cruz.

Sincerely,

Updates

The feedback from local commuters keeps coming in. I am compiling these stories to present to the grant committee.

This path is long overdue. Way too many close calls with cars on Delaware when I take the kids to the beach. Much safer for everyone if this gets built.

I fully support this project. The intended benefits are important to me and my family. I moved to this neighborhood in 2002. The city/county and state have neglected the area. The subject project will put the property to a better use. Some of the natural beauty will be restored and safety will be improved. Thank you for working with our neighborhood.
