Our chair Andrew Sullivan submitted this letter to the SFMTA.
You should too! Attend today’s board meeting (it’s not on the agenda, but some opponents plan to complain about the lanes during general public comment) or submit your letter to [email protected].
Greg of N-Judah Chronicles said it perfectly. We support KEEPING and EXPANDING the transit lanes on Mission. Don’t listen to the naysayers – 65,000 transit riders per day depend on this project!
There’s been surprisingly little communication to the public about the night shutdown of Muni Metro that begins 10 days from now. This is for essential maintenance and upgrades but will be very disruptive to riders. Please make sure to look at the detailed description of night service (click “Details”) and be prepared!
In a long-overdue step, SFMTA is now painting bus and streetcar lanes red to make it obvious that they are transit only. Last year’s project to paint the lanes on Church Street was a big success, so SFMTA is now extending the red lanes citywide.
SFMTA has a series of proposed transit and streetscape changes for the important Ninth and Irving intersection, where thousands of riders board and alight daily for the N-Judah, and the 44-O’Shaughnessy also passes by. We urge all transit riders to review and comment! In general the proposals are very good, improving travel time and pedestrian safety.
We do recommend the option to include cycle tracks as bicycling on Muni trackways is dangerous.
Please submit your comments to SFMTA in favor of this proposal!
