Here is a list of events this week.
- Wednesday San Pablo Ave Campaign Webinar. San Pablo Avenue is a hub for transportation, commerce, and culture that runs 22 miles through two counties and a dozen cities. And yet the majority of the corridor remains inaccessible and hazardous to people walking and rolling. And buses are frequently delayed behind backed-up car traffic. Join this Bike East Bay webinar to learn how you can help make it better. Wednesday, August 19, 6:30-7:30 p.m. Register for Zoom link.

Through case studies of 17th Street’s protected bike lane (a quick-build project in Potrero Hill) and Sanchez Street’s Slow Street (a community-centered traffic calming initiative in Noe Valley), attendees will learn practical strategies for advocating for infrastructure improvements. Thursday, August 20, 5-6:30 p.m. SPUR Urban Center, 654 Mission Street, S.F.
