A comprehensive Traffic Control Plan has been developed. The plan calls for twenty-six law enforcement officers from the Santa Cruz Police Department and the California Highway Patrol Offices of Santa Cruz and San Mateo Counties. There is no involvement needed from the San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office. The Sheriff’s Office is aware of the event and has been provided with a copy of the Traffic Control Plan.
The expected impact to Highway 1 traffic is minimal as the event will not require a complete road closer. Vehicles will be allowed to across the course between riders when crossing is safe.
I recommend that the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors direct the President of the Board to sign a letter addressed to CalTrans indicating the County of San Mateo’s awareness of, and comfort with, the holding of the 10th Annual Big Kahuna Triathlon and that this letter be provided to Firstwave Events of Los Gatos, California.
