California Streetsies: Malcolm Dougherty for Civil Servant of the Year
Malcolm Dougherty took on the job of Director of Caltrans at a pivotal moment for the department. Long an independent department, Caltrans had just been put under the control of the new California State Transportation Agency, CalSTA, which had promptly commissioned an outside report on its strengths and weaknesses. That report pulled no punches—it called Caltrans rule-bound, out of step, archaic, and dysfunctional.

California Streetsies: Bike Party for Best Antidote to Commute Road Rage
Yes, Bike Party has been happening for years, but that doesn't make it any less useful as a reminder of why we ride. This California Streetsie goes to the all-inclusive rolling party on wheels because it is inspiring, fun, and a serious balm for bike commute road rage. Bike Party is full of people focused on having fun together, on being polite, and on following traffic rules--mostly. That includes using bike lights, since it is a night-time ride, which leads to some crazy colorful lit-up bikes that make Bike Party part parade, part celebration, and all fun.

California Streetsies: Richard Bloom for Legislator of the Year
Welcome to the California-wide Streetsie awards! SBCA did things a little differently from our sister Streetsblog sites for this first-ever round of California Streetsies. Instead of inviting our informed readers to weigh in, SBCA editors are selecting a few noteworthy recipients. Let us know if you agree, or who else you think deserves a California Streetsie award.
