PROJECT OVERVIEW
7TH & 8TH STREETS SAFETY PROJECTProject Goal
Informational Open HouseSeptember 22, 2016Bayanihan Community Center
Key Considerations
The goal of the 7th & 8th Streets Safety Project is to increase safety and comfort for everyone traveling on these corridors, including people on foot, on bike, in a vehicle, and on public transit. We plan to achieve this goal by:
» Reducing the potential for conflict» Addressing collision patterns» Implementing quickly and effectively» Planning for long-term solutions
We’re working on a phased approach to implementing safety improvements over time, starting with near-term measures and moving towards long-term streetscape measures. Schedule subject to change.

Community Vision, Recommendations, and Development GuidelinesThis project is guided by the vision expressed in the Eastern Neighborhoods Transportation Implementation Planning Study (EN TRIPS), a multi-year community planning process.
Vision Zero San FranciscoThe City and County of San Francisco adopted Vision Zero San Francisco as a policy in 2014, committing an effort to prioritize street safety and eliminate traffic deaths in San Francisco by 2024.
Mayor’s Directive On August 4, 2016, Mayor Ed Lee issued an executive directive on bicycle and pedestrian safety, explicitly calling for a focus on delivering near-term safety improvements on 7th and 8th Streets in the next nine months.
8th Street Today
PRESSING SAFETY NEEDSEvery year, 30 people are killed and 200 more are seriously injured in San Francisco traffic crashes. Vision Zero is our city’s commitment to end all traffic deaths and serious injuries by 2024.

7th Street and 8th Street are intersected by several streets on San Francisco’s High Injury Network, which are 12 percent of city streets that account for 70 percent of the city’s traffic collisions.
In the most recent five-year collision history available (April 1, 2011 through March 31, 2016), there were 198 injury or fatal traffic crashes combined on 7th and 8th Street between Market and Townsend. On June 22, 2016 another bicyclist lost her life at the intersection of 7th Street and Howard Street.

ELEMENTS OF A PARKING-PROTECTED BIKEWAY
PROTECTED BIKEWAYInformational Open HouseSeptember 22, 2016Bayanihan Community Center
Two-Stage Turn Box Green two-stage turn boxes help clarify where bicyclists can turn to connect to other routes in the bicycle network. They also provide a waiting space and bring awareness to all road users of where cyclists can be expected.
Parking-Protected BikewayBicycle lanes paired with a lane of parked vehicles offer both safety and comfort benefits. They provide greater separation for pedestrians and bicyclists from moving traffic, while providing more room for bicyclists to pass other bicyclists without maneuvering into moving traffic. This design accommodates on-street parking and loading needs as well.
Mixing Zones The use of dashed green areas at driveways advise caution to all road users where travel modes can mingle. At intersections, yield “teeth” markings indicate to right-turning drivers they must yield to oncoming bicyclists.
Pedestrian Safety EnhancementsRed visibility curbs at intersections help increase the visibility of pedestrians waiting at the corner. Painted safety zones further emphasize this clear space and resembles a bulbout. Their potential future conversion to concrete bulbouts will provide all the benefits of a wider sidewalk.
Travel Lane ReductionOne travel lane is proposed to be removed from 7th Street to accommodate the upgraded bikeway. This design is already implemented on 8th Street. Minimal delays are anticipated.

LONG-TERM STREETSCAPE OPPORTUNITIES
LONG-TERM STREETSCAPEInformational Open HouseSeptember 22, 2016Bayanihan Community Center
What’s your vision for the future of 7th Street & 8th Street? (comments welcome!)
Signal timing changes can provide pedestrians a head start on crossing the street, bicyclists dedicated phases, and drivers a longer phase to travel through intersections.
Corner bulb-outs extend the sidewalk at intersections to provide more space for pedestrians waiting to cross the street. They also shorten crossings distances, increase pedestrian visibility, and slow down turning vehicles.
Raised islands & landscaping can provide physical protection to bicyclists when on-street parking is not present. Landscaping may be incoporated as an added benefit to capture rainwater.
Widened sidewalks will provide more room for additional sidewalk amenities such as new trees, rain gardens, pedestrian-scale street lighting, street furniture, and public art.N
SOMA PLANS & PROJECTSInformational Open HouseSeptember 22, 2016Bayanihan Community Center
CENTRAL SOMA PLAN
Several streets in the vicinity of the Central SoMa Plan Area are being transformed by the City to support the Plan and our safety goals. Project improvements may include reconfiguring or repaving of right-of-way, upgrades to sidewalks, crosswalks, protected bicycle lanes, changes to transit boarding islands, among other improvements.
Key projects are identified on the adjacent map and listed below. Each project is in various stages of planning and conceptual design.
Project Spotlight: 6th Street Improvement Project
• Vision of a sustainable neighborhood that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
• Provides opportunity to rethink how people get to move through the neighborhood. • Goal to provide safe and convenient transportation that prioritizes walking,
bicycling, and transit.• For more information, please visit: sf-planning.org/central-soma-plan

New boarding islands at bus stops on 7th and 8th Streets reduce bus-bike conflicts and reduce delays merging back into traffic.

19 Polk Reroute and Stop Changes (Northbound only)More direct routing saves time and improves safety by removing a difficult merge on 7th Street between Mission and Market.• Stops removed: Market/Hyde, Larkin/Grove, Larkin/McAllister• Stops added: McAllister/Hyde• Stops moved farside of intersection: 7th/Mission, 7th/Market
Improving Safety and Travel TimeCurrently, buses leaving the 7th/Mission bus stop conflict with vehicles turning right onto Mission, and must merge across four travel lanes (the dashed red arrow) in order to make a left turn onto Market.Relocating the 7th/Mission bus stop across the street reduces conflicts with right-turning vehicles and the reroute allows buses to continue straight (solid blue arrow) in a new transit-only lane between Mission and Market.

Need/Issue Management Tool Options Considerations
• Double parking by delivery vehicles
• Businesses need freight loading/unloading access
• Double parking by short-term customers
• Shops need quick-stop parking (dry cleaning, coffee, ATM, etc.)
• Customers cannot find parking nearby
• Shops and restaurants need customer parking
• Double parking for drop-off and pick-up
• Businesses need patron drop-off/pick-up (theaters, day care centers, religious facilities, instriutions/centers, etc.)
• Residents unable to find parking near residence
• Commuter drivers parking on residential blocks
• People with disabilities cannot find parking
• Need parking for people with disabilities
• Bicycles are locked to poles, trees, railings, etc.
• Customers who ride bikes need more official bike parking
