Downtown Santa Monica/Third Street Promenade
spots, pastel-hued hotels, palm-lined Palisades Park and the distinctive Tongva Park provide enviable beachfront hangouts. Ocean Front Walk, home of the Original Muscle Beach, still flexes its charm with a collection of rings, parallel bars and balance bars plied by bodybuilders, yogis and other assorted sun-worshippers. Bikes and skateboards drift down the Marvin Braude Bike Trail in an aimless procession of fun. Perched over the Pacific, the 110-year-old Pier, featuring the world’s only solar-powered Ferris wheel, the century-old Looff Hippodrome, and the aquarium, attracts families, couples and friends each reveling in a delectable slice of West Coast nostalgia.

shopping haven and street-performer stage. Just east of the Pier, the Third Street Promenade consists of three open-air, car-free blocks that are anchored by upscale Santa Monica Place, home to more than 80 retailers. With everything from fresh farmers-market produce to designer fashions, it’s a shopper’s nirvana. Likewise, foodies rejoice in the numerous restaurants featuring locally sourced ingredients and craft cocktails. Life pulses around each corner with hotel guests, street performers, shoppers, office workers, diners, barflies and moviegoers. Additionally, it’s the terminus of the Metro Expo Line, which ferries riders by light rail between Santa Monica and Downtown Los Angeles.
Main Street Cafés, shops, public parklets and sandy beaches add to a welcoming neighborhood vibe. LI K E TH E TI D ES O F TH E PAC I F I C
just a few blocks away, Main Street is characterized by a slow shift in personalities. By day, it’s a favorite of up-at-dawn locals, who come for breakfast or coffee after a sunrise surf session or to patronize the eclectic collection of businesses with their dogs and children in tow. Visitors can join in, easily filling an afternoon at laid-back patio-lined cafés and indie boutiques. In the evening, trendy restaurants and watering holes glow with a lively mix of options for nightlife lovers.

Although pedestrians have the right-of-way at crosswalks, use caution and make eye contact with drivers to make sure they have seen you and are stopping their vehicle. Texting or wearing headphones or earbuds and listening to music while walking impedes your hearing and can be distracting. Pedestrians may only cross in marked crosswalks. Crossing outside of a marked crosswalk—jaywalking—is an offense, and police ticket for violations. Know when to cross—only with the green light or when the “walk” sign is activated. Pedestrian scrambles are in operation throughout Downtown Santa Monica. At these intersections, a pedestrian-only phase is included in the signal-light cycle, allowing people on foot and bikes to cross in every direction, including diagonally, at the same time. Remember, drivers may not see little ones, so stand back away from the curb and hold your children’s hands at all times when walking near busy streets and intersections. Don’t assert the right of way with a fast-moving vehicle. Allow vehicles enough time to stop.

Pay attention and stay alert. Always wear a helmet. (Riders under 18 must wear a helmet by law.) Riding against traffic is illegal and dangerous. Ride on the right side of the road, with traffic, and use the bike lane where available. Biking on the sidewalk is prohibited. Obey all traffic laws and signals. Stop at stop signs, red lights and pedestrian crossings. Use hand signals and eye contact to communicate with motorists, other bicyclists and pedestrians. Texting or wearing headphones or earbuds and listening to music while biking impedes your hearing and can be distracting. Make yourself visible to drivers, especially at night. Use lights and reflectors and wear bright clothing. At pedestrian scramble crossings, ride across when the bicyclespecific traffic signal lights up with a green bike symbol.

DRIV IN G con ti n u e d
Always keep your distance from a train in motion. Stay away from the edge of the platform, never run after or next to a moving train, and wait for the train to come to a full stop before approaching. Hold onto your children and be alert when a train approaches to prevent them from getting too close to the tracks. Don’t skate or ride your bicycle on the platform, stairs or escalators. When boarding, use care crossing the gap between the platform and train. Stand clear of the train doors; touching them or leaning on them could obstruct their movement. Never climb railroad vehicles or walk on the tracks. Be mindful of lowered crossing gates. Never try to beat the train by going around the gates. Instead, wait for them to rise after the train passes. As a pedestrian, look and listen for trains in all directions.

SCOOTERING 1. 2. 3.
5.
Motorized scooters may be driven only by those with a valid driver’s license or instruction permit. Helmets are required for riders under age 18. Riding with a passenger is prohibited. Motorized scooters must be driven on the road, never on the sidewalk. Follow traffic rules and watch for obstructions and potholes. Scooters cannot be parked on the sidewalk in the way of pedestrian traffic. Look for new drop/parking zones in Downtown Santa Monica and on Main Street. Motorized scooters may not be driven on beach bike paths, Santa Monica Pier, Third Street Promenade or in municipal parks, including Palisades Park. Night use of motorized scooters lacking proper lighting equipment, which includes reflectors and a front light source visible from the front and sides, is illegal.
HOMELESSNESS
Wish to donate or volunteer? Rather than give money directly to someone who may solicit spare change, put it in one of the dolphin statue collection points—they’re marked with a plaque—on the Third Street Promenade or the Pier. The money is collected and given as a grant to a nonprofit agency that addresses homelessness. For a list of nonprofit service providers, visit smgov.net/homelessness. While the police do everything they can to keep the streets safe, visitors should realize that the homeless are a mix of individuals from different backgrounds. Please treat them with courtesy, kindness, and dignity, but be circumspect. For more information, visit santamonica.com/cares.

Green lights for eastbound and westbound drivers. Pedestrians continue to wait while vehicles flow through intersection.
Do not start crossing if red hand is flashing or solid.
Don’t text or otherwise handle your phone while driving—it’s against the law and research shows it increases the likelihood of a collision 23.2 times over unimpaired driving.
Pedestrian Scrambles can be found at the following locations in Downtown Santa Monica:

Green lights for northbound and southbound drivers. Pedestrians wait to cross, making right-hand turns for drivers safer.

Santa Monica is an active, busy city. Stay focused on the road at all times. Drivers and passengers must always wear seat belts. Children under 8 years old and shorter than 4 feet 9 inches tall must use a child safety seat. In general, pedestrians have the right-of-way whenever they are in the road. Flashing red lights at crosswalks are treated like stop signs. Stop, look both ways—THEN proceed. Always stop for pedestrians crossing at intersections and marked crosswalks. Wait until they have safely reached the opposite curb to proceed. Except at pedestrian scrambles when the “walk” light is on, or unless otherwise posted, drivers are allowed to turn right at a red light after bringing the vehicle to a stop as long as foot, bicycle, and auto traffic are clear. When making right turns, and left turns against traffic, STOP and look for pedestrians before making your turn. Cars are not permitted in bus lanes, except to make right turns, which are restricted during peak periods by posted signs. Obey posted speed limits and use common sense in congested areas. Drivers are required to pull over to the side of the road for law-enforcement and other emergency vehicles with lights and sirens on.

BE RESPONSIBLE. BE KIND. TIPS FOR RESPONSIBLE TRAVELING • Walk, bike or use public transportation. • Bring a reusable water bottle and/or shopping bag to reduce the use of plastics and recycle when possible. • Always leave a place better than the way you arrived; this includes packing and picking-up practices and not littering.
• When you leave your hotel room, turn off the lights and all electronics. • Follow your hotel’s suggestions with linens. • Shop, eat and play local in Santa Monica—it strengthens our community.
