Streetfilms producer Clarence Eckerson spent a week this summer documenting the best the Bay Area has to offer. He did videos on the new protected bike lanes on Telegraph, on Alameda, and he did a celebratory piece on the JFK Promenade and Great Highway Park.

On Tuesday the veteran filmmaker dropped the last movie in his Bay Area series, a piece on the city’s red-carpet bus lanes. The video is embedded below:

This last film is hosted by SFMTA’s transit priority manager and former Streetsblog reporter Michael Rhodes. Be sure to check it out.
