Caltrain Highlights Safety in New Campaign

The transit agency is kicking off a year-long campaign to encourage safety on and near the trains and tracks.

Caltrain is asking riders to share their thoughts and experiences with the railway system as part of a year-long campaign titled "See Something – Say Something."

The campaign, which kicks off this month, encourages passengers to promote safety through the rail system and reminds customers of safe behavior near the railroads, agency spokeswoman Christine Dunn said.

Even the average person needs to exercise caution in public places and serve as the eyes and ears for the community, she said.

Each month, Caltrain will highlight a different safety message, some of which target system-wide safety and others that emphasize personal responsibility around an active railroad.

Riders will see messages on the electronic station signs, on the agency’s website, using social media outlets and through announcements onboard the train.

This month’s message reminds customers that, “We can all count on a safe ride if we look out for each other.”

Caltrain passengers have made the system part of their regular routine, making the rider most likely to notice when something seems out of place or when someone is behaving in an unsafe manner.

How exciting to have some of the best orthotic specialists in the WORLD right here in our ownRead More backyard, and with such a commitment to patient care as their top priority! So glad to read this.

PS: Ideally, everybody will be able to sign up at the college website. But I have to acknowledgeRead More that some of the language may not be perfectly as clear as we'd like, especially if this is your first enrollment. So, if you need any assistance (or maybe aren't computer-savvy) the very nice Registrar Office people can assist you on 650/574-6165. Just tell them you want to sign up for Summer semester, Real Estate Practice 110 class, Course Reference number 54642 and that you'd like to complete the enrollment today. You'll like the class once we get you in! Thank you!

Among all the supporters isn't there one competent attorney who can get an injunction to keep theRead More rink from being destroyed and who can sue SPI Holding, and if necessary the City, to enforce the Master Plan Agreement? A toilet and an astro turf field are useless to ice skaters. I smell something rotten in the Mayor and the City Council's excuses. At least one skater must have a parent or family member who is an attorney with some sense of decency to do the work pro bono.

To close the ice rink is a crime. I had this conversation years ago with Peter Pau, the man whoRead More built it. We need places for children to recreate. When we send them to juvenile hall, we wring our hands and wonder why! No skate board parks in convenient places and now the skating rink. Why are our children the ones to sacrafice?
