NON-STIP PMP <br /> August 5, 2025 <br /> STAKEHOLDER INVOLVEMENT <br /> Collaborative Approach to Advancing Multimodal Transportation <br /> OCTS staff maintain ongoing and robust partnerships with a diverse array of stakeholders, <br /> including town and County departments, law enforcement agencies, and nonprofit <br /> organizations—to advance the County's vision of a safe, equitable, and connected multimodal <br /> transportation network. These relationships are foundational to the success of the Non-STIP <br /> PMP, which depends on multi-agency collaboration to deliver impactful, community-centered <br /> transportation improvements. <br /> The non-STIP PMP builds upon these partnerships by coordinating with local and regional <br /> partners on programs and projects that benefit both residents and businesses. These <br /> collaborations ensure that transportation efforts are not only technically sound but also aligned <br /> with broader public interests such as public safety, health, economic development, and <br /> environmental stewardship. <br /> Supporting Agencies and Partner Divisions <br /> The successful implementation of Non-STIP projects is supported by coordination with the <br /> following key entities: <br /> • Engineering and Public Works Departments: For design guidance, infrastructure <br /> assessments, and technical project implementation. <br /> • Local Law Enforcement Agencies: To coordinate enforcement activities that reinforce <br /> transportation safety initiatives, such as speed enforcement in high-risk corridors. <br /> • Public Health Departments: To align infrastructure improvements with active transportation <br /> goals, improving opportunities for walking, biking, and transit use as part of a healthier <br /> community lifestyle. <br /> To maximize the impact of safety and mobility improvements, OCTS works closely with County <br /> enforcement and public outreach teams to support implementation and education efforts: <br /> • Safety Awareness Campaigns: Developed in coordination with the Orange County <br /> Communications Office, these campaigns aim to raise public awareness around new safety <br /> interventions, upcoming construction, or policy changes (e.g., reduced speed zones, new <br /> pedestrian crossings). <br /> • Targeted Enforcement Actions: OCTS collaborates with local law enforcement to deploy <br /> temporary speed enforcement measures, increased patrol presence, or mobile radar <br /> checks—especially during the initial rollout of safety-related projects or in response to <br /> community-reported problem areas. <br /> 9 <br />
