Abstract
There are three notable areas in the City of Santa Clara in which limited access to sustainable transportation infrastructure coincides with a more socially vulnerable local population according to demographic and other data. These are:
1.The area near Lafayette Street and Montague Expressway
2.The area of Koreatown near El Camino Real and Lawrence Expressway
3.The area near Washington Street and Newhall Street
The identification of these areas should represent an additional layer of context in the planning and decision-making process. Importantly, the expansion of such infrastructure in any location advances the climate and equity goals of the City.
