Eyes on the Street: Bike Lane Replaces Car Parking at Fort Mason

By Aaron Bialick | Nov 21, 2013

A new contra-flow bike lane separated by paint and plastic posts has appeared at the northern end of Van Ness Avenue, providing a safer link between the ped/bike paths that run through Fort Mason and Fisherman’s Wharf.

On the table are design features that would signal drivers to slow down and possibly prevent them from using the street as a cut-through route. Even though planners say the project may remove few, if any, […]
