New Fire Protection System and Construction Inspections
OFM has conducted 215 field inspections for fire
sprinkler systems, water and access for fire
clearance, Certificate of Occupancy for Building
finals and other related inspections. The County of
Riverside Office of the Fire Marshal has been
requested to assist and the Market street office
has provided (2) inspectors to assist on a case by
case basis as they are available. Fire Systems
Inspectors Kevin Shin, and Phil Jones from the
Riverside Office have assisted this month with the
overflow.
Inspections are now being scheduled a week in advance, several residential developments are
in full production and are requesting inspections scheduled concurrently with other
developments. With the start-up of the Menifee Town Center project, and Menifee Lakes Plaza
businesses we have a full load and will most likely continue to require supplemental inspection
staff for the upcoming surge in inspection requests.
Of Note:
Riverside County Office of the Fire Marshal welcomes Deputy Fire Marshal Steven Swarthout
(Promotion) as the new DFM in charge of West County Offices which includes the City of
Menifee. We look forward to working with Steve to mitigate and coordinate resources for
continuing to maintain an optimum customer service level.
Fee Schedule Update:
Assistant City Manager Jeff Wyman has taken the helm along with Chief Geoff Pemberton to
coordinate the Fire Fee schedule with the consultant and other city development departments.
Meetings will be conducted in July to discuss the details for final approval by council

Project: Systemic Safety Analysis Report (SSAR)
Subject: Countermeasure Toolbox
1.0 | INTRODUCTION
Kittelson & Associates, Inc. (KAI) is working with STC Traffic, Inc. and the City of
Menifee to identify countermeasures to improve roadway safety. This work is
being conducted through a Caltrans Systemic Safety Analysis Report Program
(SSARP) grant. This memorandum provides a toolbox of recommended
countermeasures that could be implemented across the City at priority locations
or as systemic improvements citywide. The countermeasures are organized into
two tiers.
Tier 1 countermeasures were selected based on the citywide crash analysis and
risk factors associated with the priority locations across the City. The Tier 1
Countermeasures are organized by type into three categories:
1. Pedestrian and Bicycle Treatments
2. Intersection Treatments
3. Segment Treatments
For each Tier 1 countermeasure, the following details are provided:
Countermeasure description
Example images
Justification for inclusion
Planning-level cost estimates
Crash type(s) addressed
Caltrans crash reduction factor
Expected design life
Federal funding eligibility
Caltrans HSIP countermeasure reference
In addition to the Tier 1 countermeasures, Tier 2 countermeasures were identified that may also be appropriate in
certain situations across the City of Menifee. For these Tier 2 countermeasures a more limited description is
provided, including:

Federal funding eligibility
Caltrans HSIP countermeasure reference
Both tiers of selected countermeasures are consistent with the current Caltrans grant cycle for the Highway Safety
Improvement Program (HSIP). Additional eligible countermeasures from the current HSIP cycles can be found in the
latest version of the Caltrans’ Local Roadway Safety Manual version 1.4. This toolbox is intended to provide the City
of Menifee with a simplified reference when addressing potential safety projects throughout the city. This toolbox
does not preclude the use of other countermeasures but was developed to support future HSIP applications and
address common crash trends and patterns identified through the SSARP crash data analysis.

2.0 | TIER I BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN TREATMENTS
2.1 INSTALL BICYCLE LANES
Description:
Bicycle lanes provide a dedicated space for bicyclists to separate them from motor vehicle traffic along a
roadway. Bike lanes help reduce the rate of wrong-way riding by bicyclists and can provide for more predictable
interactions between bicyclists and motorists. Bike lanes can be enhanced with guidance signs and additional
markings to direct bicyclists and motorists on appropriate travel paths and use. Examples of the treatment are
shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1. Example Bicycle Lanes
Source: Kittelson & Associates Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
Bicycle-vehicle crashes are over-represented for fatal and injury crashes in Menifee, 89% of bicycle involved
crashes are injury or fatal crashes. In addition, 45% of bicycle crashes were broadside crashes which may indicate a
lack of visibility for bicyclists approaching driveways or intersections. Providing a network of bikeway facilities
including bike lanes throughout the City can help to reduce conflicts between bicyclists and motor vehicles. By
addressing gaps in bicycle facilities and connecting schools, parks, and commercial areas with residential
neighborhoods, adding bicycle lanes, separated bikeways, or parallel multiuse paths could help reduce bicyclist-
involved crashes.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $50 per feet per lane
Crash Type Addressed: Pedestrian and Bicycle
Crash Reduction Factor: 35%
Expected Design Life: 20 years
Eligible for Federal Funding: Yes (90%)
HSIP Countermeasure: R36

2.2 INSTALL ADVANCE STOP BARS/BICYCLE BOXES
Description:
This treatment can be implemented at signalized intersections with significant bicycle and/or pedestrians volumes.
The advance stop bar provides a buffer between the vehicles and pedestrians/bicyclists using the crosswalk. It also
creates a space where bicycles can wait in front vehicles at the intersection to increase awareness of the bicyclists’
presence and potential conflicts. Examples of the treatment are shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2. Example Advance Stop Bar and Bicycle Box
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
89% of bicycle involved crashes are injury or fatal crashes and 91% of pedestrian involved crashes are injury or fatal
crashes. Bicycle and pedestrian involved crashes are associated with higher severity crashes in the City of Menifee
and Broadside conflicts account for 45% of all bicyclist-involved crashes. Advance stop bars and bike boxes
provide increased visibility of both pedestrians and bicyclists for vehicle drivers at signalized intersections and can
help prevent conflicts.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $1,000 - $2,000 each
Crash Type Addressed: Pedestrian and Bicycle
Crash Reduction Factor: 15%
Expected Design Life: 10 years
Eligible for Federal Funding: Yes (100%)
HSIP Countermeasure: S21

2.3 INSTALL SIDEWALK/PATHWAY
Description:
Sidewalk or dedicated pathways for pedestrians provide a separated walking environment. Sidewalks on both sides
of the street have been found to lead to significant reductions in the frequency of “walking along roadway”
crashes for pedestrians. This treatment should be prioritized for locations where walking activity is likely to be highest,
such as near schools or parks. Examples of this treatment are shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3. Example Sidewalk
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
Sidewalk or pedestrian pathways were selected for the City of Menifee because 30% of pedestrian-involved
crashes happen in road, including the shoulder in the City of Menifee. In addition, the City of Menifee is developing
at a fast pace and sidewalk/pathways are not provided in continuously through many of the developing areas of
the City. Providing sidewalks/pathways will allow people walking in Menifee a dedicated space to walk and
reduce potential conflicts with motor vehicles.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $25 per feet
Crash Type Addressed: Pedestrian and Bicycle
Crash Reduction Factor: 80%
Expected Design Life: 20 years
Eligible for Federal Funding: Yes (90%)
HSIP Countermeasure: R37

2.4 INSTALL RAISED MEDIANS/REFUGE ISLANDS
Description:
This treatment can be applied to intersections that have long pedestrian crossing distances. The raised
medians/refuge islands reduce the conflict between the non-motorized user and motorized users. This treatment
also allows pedestrians to focus on one direction of traffic at a time because the refuge island provides a
protected space between the two directions of travel. Figure 4 shows examples of raised medians/refuge islands.
Figure 4. Example Raised Medians/Refugees Island
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
89% of bicycle-involved crashes are injury or fatal crashes and 91% of pedestrian-involved crashes are injury or fatal
crashes. Bicycle- and pedestrian- involved crashes are associated with higher severity crashes in the City of
Menifee. Crossing in a crosswalk at an intersection accounts for 23% of all pedestrian-involved crashes, and
broadsides crashes (45%) is the most frequent contributing factors for bicycle-involved crashes. The City of Menifee
has many collector and arterial roadways with long crossing distances for pedestrians. Providing refuge islands can
help decrease the exposure of pedestrians (and bicyclists) crossing the street.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $120 per feet
Crash Type Addressed: Pedestrian and Bicycle
Crash Reduction Factor: 45%
Expected Design Life: 20 years
Eligible for Federal Funding: Yes (90%)

2.5 INSTALL PEDESTRIAN COUNTDOWN SIGNAL HEADS
Description:
Pedestrian countdown signal heads provide a countdown timer for signalized pedestrian crossings during the walk
and flashing don’t walk phases to indicate the remaining time to cross. Countdown signals begin counting down
either when the “WALK” or when the flashing “DON’T WALK” interval appears and stop at the beginning of the
steady “DON’T WALK” interval. Example of the treatment are shown in Figure 5.
Figure 5. Example Pedestrian Countdown Signal Head
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
The treatment was selected as a low-cost improvement that can be systemically implemented across the City’s
signalized intersections to address pedestrian crashes. 23% of the total pedestrian crashes occur when pedestrians
are crossing in crosswalk an at intersection. This treatment could help reduce pedestrian-involved crashes at
signalized intersections by clearly communicating the time remaining to safely cross at a signalized crossing
location.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $300 – 1,000 per device
Crash Type Addressed: Pedestrian and Bicycle
Crash Reduction Factor: 25%
Expected Design Life: 20 years
Eligible for Federal Funding: Yes (100%)

2.6 ENHANCED PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS AT UNSIGNALIZED OR
UNCONTROLLED LOCATIONS
Description:
Pedestrian crossings with enhanced safety features are appropriate for uncontrolled, marked crosswalks locations
that cross multilane arterials or collectors, or are at locations with high pedestrian demand or frequent motor
vehicle turn conflicts. Enhanced crossing features alert drivers of potential crossing pedestrians through features,
such as: high visibility crosswalk striping, warning signs, flashing beacons, curb extensions, advanced “stop” or
“yield” markings, and other safety features. Examples of these treatments are shown in Figure 6.
Figure 6. Example Enhanced Pedestrian Crossings
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
This treatment will increase the safety of pedestrians at locations where pedestrians are exposed to vehicle traffic
conflicts, particularly for higher-speed or higher-volume roadways. The priority locations near shopping mall,
schools, park, library and transit stations would benefit from installing enhanced pedestrian crossings, as this
treatment could help increase motorists’ yielding behavior and reduce pedestrian exposure by shortening crossing
distances.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $500 – $25,000
Crash Type Addressed: Pedestrian and Bicycle
Crash Reduction Factor: 30%
Expected Design Life: 10 years
Eligible for Federal Funding: Yes (90%)

3.0 | TIER I INTERSECTION TREATMENTS
3.1 ADD INTERSECTION LIGHTING
Description:
Adding intersection lighting for signalized and non-signalized intersections helps improve the visibility of the
intersection and potential conflicts. Ensuring all aspects of the intersection are adequately illuminated, including
pedestrian crossings helps not only illuminate crossing pedestrians for approaching motorists but also assists
pedestrians navigate the crossing. Example of the treatment are shown in Figure 8.
Figure 7. Example Intersection Lighting
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
The highest frequency (14%) of pedestrian crashes by hour occurred at night between 6:00 pm and 7:00 pm. In
addition, 26% of crashes happen between 7:00 pm to next day 7:00 am. Many locations in the City of Menifee have
lighting, however, a further investigation on proper illumination, the lighting schedule, and, in particular, the
presence of lighting in the rural and transitional areas of the city may be appropriate to address nighttime crashes.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $6,000 per light
Crash Type Addressed: Night crashes (All types)
Crash Reduction Factor: 40%
Expected Design Life: 20 years
Eligible for Federal Funding: Yes (100%)

Description:
Improving signal hardware addresses signalized intersections with high frequencies of right-angle and rear-end
crashes. The treatment enhances the visibility of the signalized intersection to allow drivers proper reaction time to
negotiate the intersection and/or avoid conflicts. Improvements for this treatment include: new LED lighting, signal
back plates, retro-reflective tape outlining the back plates, visors to increase signal visibility, larger signal heads,
relocation of existing signal heads, or additional signal heads. Example of the treatment are shown in Figure 7.

Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
Rear-end crashes are the highest frequency crash type (32%) and broadsides crashes are the second largest type
(25%) of reported crashes. Improving the visibility of signals across the City could help reduce the frequency and
severity of crashes at signalized intersections. In particular, at signalized locations in the transitional areas of the city
between rural and suburban locations, enhanced signal hardware can help drivers recognize and react to the
changes in roadway context.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $1,500 per intersection for backplates and visors.
Crash Type Addressed: Rear-End, Angle Crashes
Crash Reduction Factor: 15%

3.3 ADVANCED DILEMMA ZONE DETECTION FOR HIGH SPEED APPROACHES
Description:
This treatment detects the high-speed approaches and addresses rear-end or angle crashes in rural contexts. The
dilemma zone is the segment of an intersection approach where a driver may have difficulty deciding whether to
stop or continue through the intersection during the yellow phase of a movement. This treatment adjusts signal
timing through detection of vehicles that are in the dilemma zone to extend the yellow phase to reduce potential
conflicts. An example of this treatment is shown in Figure 8.
Figure 9. Example Signals with Video Detection and Advanced Inductive Loop Detectors
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
This treatment was selected for the City of Menifee because of the high frequency of rear-end crashes at
intersections (32%) and the transitions within the city between high-speed rural and suburban contexts. This
treatment can help reduce rear-end crashes and lower the frequency of conflicts between vehicles during signal
phase changes at these locations.

3.4 UPGRADE INTERSECTION PAVEMENT MARKINGS
Description:
This treatment could be used at signalized intersections with observing rear-end, right-angle, or turning collisions
related to a lack of driver awareness of the presence of an intersection. Typical improvements include “Stop
Ahead” markings and the addition of Centerlines and Stop Bars. The visibility of intersections and, thus, the ability of
approaching drivers to perceive them can be enhanced by installing appropriate pavement delineation in
advance of and at intersections. Examples of this treatment are shown in Figure 9.
Figure 10. Example Intersection Pavement Markings
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
Rear-end crashes account for one third of total reported crashes within the City of Menifee (32%). In addition,
during field reviews pavement markings in some areas of the City of Menifee needed to be restriped. Clarifying and
emphasizing approaches to unsignalized locations can help to increase driver awareness and reduce potential
conflicts.

3.5 IMPROVE INTERSECTION SIGHT DISTANCE
Description:
Sight distance improvements focus on removing roadside objects that obstruct intersection sight distance at
intersections. Providing adequate sight distance enables drivers to make better decisions about appropriate gaps
and potential conflicts at unsignalized intersections. Sight distance restrictions may include vegetation, parked
vehicles, signs, or buildings, among others. Example of sight distance issues are shown in Figure 10.
Figure 11. Example Limited Sight Distance due to Parked Vehicles and Vegetation
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
Broadside (25%) is the second most frequent crash type for the city. During field reviews, a number of locations were
identified where intersection sight distances are limited at some of the priority locations identified for the City of
Menifee. Evaluating available sight distance during safety project development should be considered to ensure
that approaching and turning vehicles at intersections have adequate sight lines to see approaching vehicles,
adequately judge appropriate gaps, and avoid potential conflicts.

3.6 IMPROVE FLASHING BEACONS AS ADVANCE WARNING
Description:
This treatment increases awareness of an approaching intersection (or other change in roadway character). The
advance flashing beacon can bring drivers’ attention to the upcoming intersection in advance and give them
adequate time to slow down and react to potential conflicts at the intersection. Figure 11 shows an example of an
advanced flashing beacon treatment.
Figure 12. Flashing Beacons
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
Rear-end (32%) is the most frequent crash type and unsafe speed (30%) is the most frequent primary contributing
factor. This treatment increases driver awareness of the approaching intersection and can help increase the
reaction time of drivers to slow down to avoid conflicts.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $7,500 per approach
Crash Type Addressed: All Types

3.6 INSTALL RAISED PAVEMENT MARKERS AND STRIPING
Description:
This treatment should apply to intersections with multiple turn lanes. It will provide clear guidance to motorists
through complex intersection. The clearer direction the drivers must drive through intersection, the less likely the
confliction between vehicles happens. Figure 12 shows examples of raised pavement markers and striping through
intersections for a through and turn movements.
Figure 13. Raised Pavement Markers and Striping
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
Improper turning (12%) is the third most frequent contributing factor for reported crashes in the City of Menifee. This
treatment helps drivers navigate through intersections where through-lanes are not aligned, for complex or unclear
turn movements. Intersection tracking markings help reduce driver confusion and guide them along an appropriate
path through the movement, reducing potential conflicts in large or complex intersections.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $1,600 per intersection

4.1 INSTALL DYNAMIC/VARIABLE SPEED WARNING SIGNS
Description:
Dynamic/variable speed warning signs can be implemented on roadways with a high frequency of unsafe speed
crashes or run off road crashes on curvilinear segments. The speed warning signs alert drivers to their current travel
speed and give a visual warning once drivers exceed the recommended speed for a segment or curve. An
example of the treatment is shown in Figure 13.
Figure 14. Example Dynamic Speed Warning Sign
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
The highest frequency primary collision factor for crashes in Menifee is unsafe speed (30%). Most of crashes (91%)
caused by unsafe speed occur on multilane major arterial or corridors. Dynamic/variable speed warning signs can
alert drivers to their behavior when exceeding the speed limit and help manage speeds on key corridors through
the City to help reduce speed-related conflicts, especially in advance of curved alignments, an identified risk
factor for the City of Menifee.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $7,500 per sign

4.2 ROAD DIETS
Description:
Road diets reconfigure streets with excess motor vehicle capacity to provide a two-way left turn lane or median, as
well as improved bicycle and pedestrian facilities. Road diets are appropriate for locations with high-frequencies of
head-on, left-turn, and/or rear-end crashes or where speed management is a concern. Traffic volumes should be
considered to ensure that removing through capacity will not have undue negative network efforts on the
transportation system. An example of the treatment is shown in Figure 14.
Figure 15. Example Road Diet Concept
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
Rear-end (32%) is the most common crash type in the City of Menifee. Some collector roads in the City of Menifee
are multilane streets with excess capacity that may encourage motorists to travel in excess of the speed limit. Road
diets help eliminate speed-related crashes while also providing safer facilities for motorists turning. Road diets also
provide an opportunity to improve facilities for people walking or biking.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $30,000 - $150,000 per mile

4.3 REMOVE OR RELOCATE FIXED OBJECTS OUTSIDE OF THE CLEAR
RECOVERY ZONE
Description:
Removing or relocating roadside fixed objects such as utility poles, drainage, trees, or other fixed objects provides a
clear recovery zone that allows drivers to correct their path of travel when they leave the roadway. This treatment is
particularly effective outside of curves, along lane drops and in traffic islands where fixed object crashes are more
common. A clear recovery zone should be developed on more rural context roadways, as space is available. In
situations where public right-of-way is limited, steps should be taken to request assistance from property owners, as
appropriate. Figure 15 shows examples fixed objects in the recovery zone.
Figure 16. Example Fixed Objects (Poles, Trees, Signs) in the Recovery Zone
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
Hit object (14%) is the third most common crash type in the City of Menifee. In the rural and transitional areas of the
City, fixed objects were frequently near the roadway during field checks of the priority corridors. This treatment does
not prevent the vehicle leaving the roadway but can allow drivers to correct their error when they do or reduce the
severity of a resulting crash.
Planning-Level Cost Estimate: $200 - $10,000 per location/object
Crash Type Addressed: Fixed Object

4.4 INSTALL CHEVRON SIGNS ON HORIZONTAL CURVES
Description:
Chevron signs provide a visual cue to drivers that they are about to navigate a horizontal curve. This treatment is
appropriate for locations where relatively sharp curves have resulted in crashes. This treatment should be installed in
combination with additional treatments such as advance warning signs, delineators, and pavement markers to
provide increased awareness of the curved roadway alignment. An example of this treatment is shown in Figure
16.
Figure 17. Example Chevron Signs
Source: Kittelson & Associates, Inc., 2018.
Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
Curved roadway alignments were noted as a risk factor for crashes in the City of Menifee. There are several priority
locations with curved roadway geometry. Providing appropriate signing at these locations can both address
existing curve-related crashes while also helping to proactively prevent future crashes.

4.5 INSTALL CURVE ADVANCE WARNING SIGNS
Description:
Curve advance warning signs provide a visual cue to drivers that they are approaching a horizontal curve. This
treatment is appropriate for locations where relatively sharp curves have resulted in crashes. This treatment should
be installed in combination with additional treatments such as chevron signs, delineators, and pavement markers to
provide increased awareness of the curved roadway alignment. An example of this treatment is shown in Figure
17.

4.6 INSTALL DELINEATORS, REFLECTORS, AND/OR OBJECT MARKERS
Description:
Delineators, reflectors, and/or object markers clarify the path of travel through a horizontal alignment and call
driver attention to fixed objects along the roadside. This treatment is appropriate for locations where relatively sharp
curves have resulted in crashes. This treatment should be installed in combination with additional treatments such
as chevron signs and curve advance warning signs to provide increased awareness of the curved roadway
alignment. An example of this treatment is shown in Figure 18.

Why was this selected for City of Menifee?
Curved roadway alignments and hit objects were noted as a risk factor for crashes in the City of Menifee. There are
several priority locations with curved roadway geometry. These treatments can effectively bring drivers attention of
road alignment changes in the rural and transitional areas with limited lighting. Providing appropriate signing at
these locations can both address existing curve-related crashes while also helping to proactively prevent future
crashes.

1.1 KEY FINDINGS
Based on the analysis detailed below, key findings include:
Citywide Crash Patterns and Trends:
o The three most common crash types included: rear end
(3 2%), broadside (25%), and hit object (14%) crashes
o Unsafe speed (30% of all crashes), automobile right of
way 1 (1 4%), and improper turning (12%) were the top three
primary collision factors.
o Most of the reported crashes (61%) are coded as non-
intersection locations.
o Pedestrian-vehicle crashes were over-represented for fatal
and injury crashes (26% of fatal and injury crashes
compared to 4% of total crashes). Bicycle-vehicle crashes
were also over-represented for fatal and injury crashes
(11% of fatal and injury crashes compared to 4% of total
crashes).
o Nearly a third of pedestrian crashes (30%) occur in road,
including the shoulder.
o The most frequent crash type for bicycle crashes is
broadside crashes (45%).
o For citywide crashes, the City of Menifee’s roadway safety
performance is better (in most crash categories) than the
Cities of Perris and Hemet which are similar jurisdictions in the same Office of Traffic Safety population
category as Menifee.
Network Screening and Systemic Analysis Findings:
o The roadway network was screened using the Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) score to
determine roadway and intersections with higher score.
o Most of top quintile intersections and road segments are located along major corridors.
1 Automobile right of way refers to a crash resulting from one motorist’s failure to yield to another motorist who had the right of way.

2.0 | CITYWIDE CRASH PATTERNS AND TRENDS
The following chapter presents citywide descriptive crash trends and
patterns. This information provides a general idea on City-wide crash
conditions. The findings from this section are also used to inform
consideration for countermeasures and treatments that could be
effective at a citywide level (e.g., reviewing and adjusting signal-timing
plans on a citywide basis to ensure adequate yellow-time to address
rear-end crashes).
2.1 DATA AND APPROACH
Kittelson obtained and analyzed the most recent five (5) years of complete crash data available from City of
Menifee Crossroads database. The crash data used were from January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2017; there
were 2,183 reported crashes in this period. Reported crashes for public streets (not including Interstate 215) in
Menifee were included in the database for analysis.
2.2 FINDINGS
In the five years of data analyzed, most crashes were vehicle-vehicle collisions (95%). The top three primary collision
factors include unsafe speed (30%), automobile right of way (14%), and improper turning (12%); the top three crash
types include rear end (3 3%), broadside (26%), and hit object (14%). The findings discussed below will inform the
identification and prioritization of safety-focused countermeasures for the City.
We considered the following crash characteristics to evaluate citywide crash patterns and trends:
severity;
crash type;
contributing factors;
year;
bicycle crash characteristics; and,
pedestrian crash characteristics.
Severity
Table 1 summarizes the reported crashes by severity and road user involved (e.g., pedestrian, bicycle, vehicle).
Severity is classified as fatal and severe injuries, non-severe injury, and property damage only (PDO) crashes. Non-
severe Injury crashes include other visible injuries and complaint of pain injuries.

There were 91 fatal and severe injuries crashes. Of these 91, 5 bicyclist-vehicle (5.5%), 15 pedestrian-vehicle
crashes (16.5%), and 71 vehicle-vehicle crashes (78.0%) resulted in fatality or severe injuries. Four percent of
reported crashes resulted in a fatality or severe injury.
Over half (57%) of all crashes recorded resulted in property damage only.
Figure 1 is a detailed view of severity by road users involved in the crash.

Pedestrian crashes had the highest percentage of fatalities (5%) when compared to crashes involving other
road users.
As expected for vulnerable road users, the proportions of bicyclist (11%) and pedestrian (26%) crashes
resulting in an injury or fatality were higher than the proportions for total reported crashes (4%) and vehicle-
vehicle crashes (4%).
Considering all reported crashes, almost half of crashes (43%) resulted in an at least one injury of some
severity (complaint of pain or more severe).

2.3 CITYWIDE RANKING
California’s Office of Transportation Safety (OTS) maintains a ranking system to compare traffic safety statistics
among similarly sized California cities. The comparison allows cities to identify local trends relative to peers. Citywide
rankings are based on population, daily vehicle miles traveled, crash records, and crash trends. Data is collected
from SWITRS, Caltrans, California Department of Justice, and the Department of Finance. A number 1 in ranking in a
category is the worst performer relative to other peers in the group. This section presents available OTS rankings from
2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015.
The City of Menifee is one of 105 “Group C” cities, which have a population of 50,001-100,000 people. Other local
peer cities in Riverside County in this grouping include Perris and Hemet.
Findings
The City of Menifee has a composite OTS ranking of 49 out of the 105 cities in Group C in 2015. This composite score
is an aggregate of several rankings. This score indicates that the City has the 49th poorest overall traffic safety
performance relative to its peer cities. The 2015 OTS rankings are summarized in Table 4.

In 2015, the City of Menifee ranked 38th out of 105 in the number of total fatal and injury collisions with 454
victims killed or injured. This ranking is its highest relative to the previous three years. In 2014 it was ranked
68th, in 2013 the City was ranked 65th, and in 2012 the City was ranked 71st.
During the 2012 to 2015 time-period there has been an increase in the number of alcohol-involved crashes
in the City of Menifee.
Most categories s in 2015 were worse than any year between 2012 to 2014, with the exception of the
pedestrian, bicyclists, and motorcycles crash categories which rank better in 2015 than at least some of the
prior three years of data.

The City of Menifee had better safety performance in 2015 than Perris and Hemet in most of crashes
categories, except total fatal and injury crashes and speed related crashes which were ranked worse than
the City of Perris.
For alcohol-Involved crashes, the City of Menifee performed better than the City of Perris and Hemet.
Given Menifee’s growing population, Menifee was also compared with the nearby “Group B” cities of Murrieta and
Temecula (with a population between 100,001 and 250,000). Direct comparisons between Menifee and these cities
are not possible because of the difference in rankings, but their relative position wi thin their population groups can
be considered.
The City of Temecula is ranked highly (better) in most of crashes categories in 2015, but it ranks low (worse)
for speed-related crashes (7th of 57 cities), similar to the City of Menifee within its population group.
The City of Murrieta is ranked highly (better) in nearly all categories and is one of the safest cities in “Group
B” cities for 2015.

3.0 | NETWORK SCREENING & SYSTEMIC FINDINGS
This section describes the network screening and systemic
evaluation of the City of Menifee’s roadway network. First, the data
and approach used to screen the City of Menifee’s roadway
network and identify potential systemic risk factors are described.
Second, key findings are discussed before identifying priority
locations in the following section.
3.1 DATA AND APPROACH
Kittelson identified the high-priority safety intersections and corridors
using the Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) performance
measure from the Highway Safety Manual (HSM). The EPDO screening was performed for intersections and
roadway segments within the city boundary of Menifee.
Equivalent Property Damage Only
The EPDO performance measure assigns weighting factors to crashes by severity relative to property damage only
(PDO) crashes. The weighting factors used for the network screening are based on the crash costs by severity used
for Caltrans’ HSIP Analyzer. The crash costs vary based on the location type: signalized intersection, unsignalized
intersection, or roadway segment. The weights for each crash severity by location type are shown in Table 5.
Table 5: Crash Weights by Severity and Location Type

Signalized Intersection 123.7 123.7 10.7 6.1 1
Unsignalized Intersection 195.8 195.8 10.7 6.1 1
Roadway 169.5 169.5 10.7 6.1 1
Source: Caltrans, Local Roadway Safety Manual, Appendix D, 2018.
The weights generally reflect an order of magnitude difference between the societal costs of fatal and severe injury
crashes versus non-severe injury crashes. The weighting factors intentionally weigh fatal and severe injuries equally
to recognize that the difference between a severe injury crash versus a fatal crash are often more of a function of
the individuals involved – therefore, both represent locations where the City may want to prioritize improvements.
The crash weights vary by location type due to the relative costs associated with the crash severity at those
location types. Hence, fatal or severe crashes at an unsignalized intersection location result in more persons injured
or more severely injured in a fatal or severe injury crash and as a result have a higher average cost than at a
signalized intersection or roadway location. As a result, unsignalized intersections have higher weights for those
severities than the other two location types.
Intersection Analysis Methodology
Reported crashes were first coded by severity. Crashes within 250 feet of an intersection were then spatially joined
and summarized in ArcGIS to develop the total number of crashes by severity at each intersection. Where

intersections were less than 500 feet from each other, crashes were assigned to the nearest intersection. Crashes
occurring more than 250 feet from an intersection were included in the corridor analysis discussed below.
The EPDO score for intersections was calculated by multiplying each crash severity total by its associated weight
(by intersection type) and summing the results, using the following formula:
EPDO Score = Fatal weight * # of fatal crashes + severe injury weight * # of severe injury crashes
+ other visible injury weight * # of other visible injury crashes + complaint of pain injury weight * # of
complaint of pain injury weight crashes + PDO crashes
The EPDO score was then annualized by dividing the score by the number of years (5) of crash data used in the
analysis.
Corridor Analysis Methodology
Following the approach used for intersection analysis, reported crashes were first coded by severity. A Python script
was run in ArcGIS which segmented the City of Menifee street network into half-mile segments. This methodology
helps to identify portions of roadways with the greatest potential for safety improvements.
Once the roadway segments have been created, the script spatially joins crashes (including those at intersections)
to the corridor segment. Similar to the intersection methodology above, the crashes are summarized by severity,
and the totals are multiplied by the EPDO weights for roadway segments. The weighted crashes are then summed
and annualized by dividing the score by the number of years of crash data to generate an annualized EPDO score.
Risk Factor Identification
Kittelson applied a risk-based analysis using the top quintile of locations identified through the intersection and
roadway corridor network screening. Risk is defined in this instance as common traffic or physical characteristics
shared by the top quintile of corridors and intersections. Based on this commonality, their presence is indicative of a
potentially higher risk for crashes within the City of Menifee 4. The risk factors will be used during the field visit and
countermeasure development to assist in identifying treatments to reduce the frequency and severity of crashes
within the City. These risk factors can also be used to identify additional locations where crashes have not yet been
reported to make proactive low-cost improvements to those locations to further reduce the potential for future
crashes.
To determine risk factors, Kittelson reviewed the following roadway characteristics for top quintile sites to help
determine potential risk factors for intersections and roadway corridors:
Roadway classification;
Number of vehicle lanes;
Posted speed;
Median presence;
Traffic signal locations;
Dedicated left- or right-turn lane presence;
Intersection geometry (i.e., presence of offset or skewed approaches); and,
Presence of marked crosswalks.
4 Note: This commonality does not prove causality; it suggests a potential connection or contributing factor.
Systemic Safety Analysis Report (SSAR) Project #: 22503
January 30, 2018 Page 16
Kittelson & Associates, Inc. Orange, California
For this study, due to limited available roadway characteristic data in GIS, the risk factor analysis relied on a review
of available aerial imagery to determine common roadway characteristics of the highest-scoring segments and
intersections (e.g., posted speed, number of lanes, median presence, intersection skew and complexity, number of
approaches, right- and left-turn lane configuration).
Kittelson identified trends that were consistently present across the top quintile locations and could be tied to a
roadway characteristic. That characteristic was identified and documented as a risk factor. Corridor and
intersection potential risk factors are discussed in the Findings subsection below.
3.2 FINDINGS
Following the calculation of the network screening performance measures, priority intersections and corridors were
identified using the annualized EPDO scores. For intersection locations, the EPDO scores ranged from zero (no
crashes occurred during the five-year time frame analyzed) to 158.5. For roadway corridor segments, the EPDO
scores ranged from zero (no reported crashes occurred during the five-year time frame analyzed) to 155.5.
Intersection Screening Findings
As shown in Figure 11, the top quintile of intersection locations is made up of both signalized and unsignalized
intersections. Most of these locations are along arterial corridors, with fewer top quintile intersections located on
lower-order roadways. The top three intersections based on their EPDO scores include:
Newport Road and Haun Road (signalized)
Newport Road and Bradley Road (signalized); and,
State Route 74 and 3rd Street (unsignalized).
Roadway Segment Screening Findings
Based on the EPDO scoring results shown in Figure 12, the top quintile of roadway corridor segments with a reported
crash history are primarily located on the major corridors of City of Menifee. These corridors include:
Newport Road/Domenigoni Parkway;
State Route 74;
McCall Blvd;
Scott Road/Bundy Canyon Road;
Antelope Road; and,
Murrieta Road.
In addition, some top quintile road segments are located on the non-major corridors roads, these roads include:
Haun Road; and,
Sun City Blvd.

Intersection and Roadway Segment Risk Factors
Intersection Risk Factors
Based on our review of the identified trends in intersection characteristics that were consistently present across the
top quintile of intersection locations, the following characteristics were identified as risk factors:
Undefined intersection approaches;
Limited lighting in rural contexts;
Obstructions near intersections;
Skewed intersection approaches; and,
Abrupt changes in approach cross-sections/context from one side of the intersection to the other.
Roadway Segment Risk Factors
Based on our review of the identified trends in roadway characteristics that were consistently present across the top
quintile of roadway segment locations, the following characteristics were identified as risk factors:
High-speed arterials with long block lengths;
Multilane (four or more lanes) roadways with a striped median or two-way left turn lane;
Driveway access points along high-speed roads;
Inconsistence of lane geometry;
Limited lightings in rural area;
Limited pedestrian crossings in shopping area; and,
Curve roadway alignments.
The risk factors identified for intersections and roadway corridors will be used as part of the field reviews to help
better understand potential contributing factors to collisions and possible treatments.

4.2 LOCATION-SPECIFIC ANALYSIS APPROACH
To help inform the selection of the priority sites, Kittelson refined the citywide crash pattern and trends analysis to
focus on the individual priority corridors and intersections. This approach allows for a more nuanced understanding
of how each priority corridor or intersection’s safety performance varies across the City. This refined understanding
of the individual crash patterns and trends for each location will assist in developing a crash profile for the site that
can be used to select appropriate safety treatments to improve safety performance.
To analyze crashes by priority corridor and intersection, Kittelson flagged crashes occurring within 250 feet of a
priority intersection or along a priority corridor (and not associated with an intersection). This extraction process
resulted in a focused crash data set of 282 priority intersection-related crashes and 261 priority corridor-related
crashes. These 543 crashes account for approximately 25% of all reported crashes in the City of Menifee over the
five-year study period. Of these 543 crashes, 54 were fatal or severe injury crashes, accounting for 60% of all
reported fatal and severe injury crashes in the City. More detailed summaries of key crash characteristics are
discussed below.
4.3 LOCATION-SPECIFIC FINDINGS

Update on Mike
SWAG (Social Worker Action Group) has been working with the City of
Menifee every Wednesday, making contact with homeless in the city and
assisting them with getting their ID's/Socials, housing vouchers, medical
assitance, shelter, etc. This month SWAG has been focusing more on
follow ups with clients they have already conducted assessments on.
After being housed in a Motel for a
few weeks, Mike agreed to go back
into a much needed Detox. On
Wednesday, June 27th 2018, Mike
was released from Detox at the
Menifee Valley Hospital and
transported to a long term
residential treatment program in El
Centro. Mike is unable to have
contact with anyone for the first 30
days therefore, his progress at the
facility will be updated next month.
Mike, a 20+ year resident of Menifee, with
the last six of those being on the streets,
is now in a substance abuse treatment
facility! This is a HUGE first step towards
his recovery, however, it is only the
beginning of a long fight for Mike!
