Transit

A Q&A with Mark Cordes

Advocates with the San Francisco Transit Riders, Friends of Caltrain, Seamless Bay Area, and other pro-transit groups are starting the big push to get the required two-thirds of voters in San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties to support a 1/8 cent sales tax on the November ballot to raise over $100 million annually for Caltrain.

Last week's Muni meltdown forces managers to admit they don't do in-house quality control, didn't do full operations testing, and don't check with other transit agencies on how to fix common problems

Overhead wire splices fail once put under full load, knocking out Muni rail. Which begs the question: why weren't they put under full load before reopening the system?

After breakdowns, SFMTA gave up and cancelled rail service again Monday evening

Study looks at how to make trains, buses, and ferries safe... but is it forceful enough to do any good?

Awesome... but what about the bikes?!?

SFMTA director checks in on where things stand in this ongoing, forced transit experiment that is the year 2020

Your fast, electrified train will depart in a couple of years thanks to one very brave advocate/politician
