Eyes on the Street: More Green-Backed Sharrows on Market Street

5:16 PM PDT on September 11, 2013

The SFMTA continues to paint green-backed sharrows along lower Market Street in the wake of a re-paving by the Department of Public Works. The new markings have been spotted as far east as Fourth Street.

The combination is a nice treat that may help tide over San Franciscans who are still waiting for raised, protected bike lanes to be installed in who-knows-what-year. Fewer potholes and more visibility are nothing to sneeze at, and the increasingly continuous sharrows are starting to add some definition to the "Bay-to-Beach" route.

Of course, we have Frank Chan to thank for the superb shots.
