SFMTA staff will present details and collect feedback on the final proposed street configuration and “public realm enhancements such as lighting, landscaping, bulbouts and alley improvements.” 5:30 p.m. In preparation, the SF Bicycle Coalition’s Central City Committee will discuss the plans Monday (tonight) at 5 p.m.
