The Fix PCH Action Team invites you to a World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims event.

The Malibu community are coming together for a remembrance event of the 58 lives lost on the 21 Miles of PCH, which runs through Malibu, since 2010 when 13 year old Emily Shane was killed. All are invited to attend.

An art installation of 58 Ghost Tires will be placed commemorating those lives lost to tragic and unnecessary traffic violence on PCH with a call to action to the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to slow down PCH and fix it.

In 2015 a study was done which gave an exhaustive list of changes that could be made on PCH in order to prevent further deaths, the majority of which needed to be done by Caltrans. Those effective, lasting, life-saving changes have not been made.

And on October 17th 2023, the lives of 4 young Pepperdine students, about to graduate next year, were cut short by a speeding driver going over 100MPH on PCH

State Senator Ben Allen, County Supervisor Lindsey P. Horvath, The Malibu Mayor, Malibu City Council and the Sheriff's department have all pledged effective change on this 21 Mile stretch of PCH. The department who HAS the power to make this change is Caltrans and they have not yet come to the table.

We invite you to attend this World Day of Remembrance event and add your voice to those who support traffic safety and effective change on PCH.
