Livable Streets Events

The SFMTA continues its community meetings on the Muni Transit Effectiveness Project, where you can provide feedback about transit improvements on your Muni routes. The agency will also hold discussions on its upcoming budget at its board meeting and a town hall this weekend. A Board of Supervisors committee also considers Vision Zero, and Sunday Streets kicks off for the year.

The SFMTA continues its Muni Transit Effectiveness Project meetings in five neighborhoods this week, where you can weigh in on transit upgrades. The agency will also hold a town hall on its budget for next year, and the Planning Department will show proposals for more livable streets in the Haight-Ashbury.

The SFMTA is taking the Muni Transit Effectiveness Project on a tour this week, with meetings in three neighborhoods where you can weigh in on proposed transit improvements. The Planning Department is also initiating a new plan for Mission Street outside of SoMa, and this weekend is the Silicon Valley Transportation Summit.

Start the week off with Jan Gehl, the Danish urban designer known around the world for his visionary work on people-friendly streets, at UC Berkeley. A couple of forums this week also look at the state of SF's transit-first policy and the future of Caltrain and CA High-Speed Rail governance. And residents in the Richmond have a chance to weigh in on Muni Transit Effectiveness Project proposals for the 2, 28/28L, and 38L lines.

Tonight, the SFMTA will hold a community meeting on a proposal to upgrade the existing bike lane on northbound San Jose Avenue by removing a traffic lane. Here are all of the highlights from this week’s calendar:

This week, the SFMTA will hold two community meetings on improvements coming to the N-Judah. It's also time to cut the ribbon on the newly-finished redesign of Cesar Chavez Street, and another community meeting on Geary Bus Rapid Transit will be held in Japantown.

Today at noon, join a rally calling on the city to adopt Vision Zero, the goal of ending all traffic deaths within ten years. Plans for a safer, greener Wiggle will also be unveiled at an open house meeting Wednesday evening.

This week is a major opportunity to speak up about the SFPD's traffic safety practices. The Police Commission and a Board of Supervisors committee will hold a hearing on how police investigate traffic collisions involving people walking and biking. Elsewhere, SPUR discusses the reform of CEQA and the first public meeting on the Irving Commons project will be held.

At a meeting in San Carlos tonight, you can share your ideas on the future of Caltrain. Also this week, the SFBC holds advocacy strategy meetings in SoMa and the Mission, the city hosts a meeting on Geary BRT, and Rock the Bike celebrates the Winter Solstice.
