6th Street Pedestrian Safety Project| OVERVIEW
ENDING TRAFFIC INJURIES AND FATALITIES STARTS ON 6TH STREET
A person is hit by a car EVERY 16 DAYS
on 6th Street
Half of all collisions between Market & Howard
involved a pedestrian
The 6th Street corridor has one of the highest concentrations of pedestrian collisions, injuries, and fatalities in San Francisco. Every 16 days a person gets hit walking or biking on 6th Street. Collisions are most concentrated between Market and Howard Streets, with half of them involving a pedestrian
6th Street is a critical location for our Agency to focus our commitment on equity and inclusivity with safety improvements. So many of the City’s communities that are most vulnerable to traffic collisions live around 6th Street. One of out of every three residents are seniors, mobility impaired, or both. Half the residents are people of color, half the population primarily speaks a language that is not English, and half don’t own a car. In other words some of the most marginalized communities live around 6th Street.
In support of San Francisco’s Vision Zero initiative, the 6th Street Pedestrian Safety Project aims to create a safe and inviting place for people to walk by transforming 6th Street with wider sidewalks, new traffic signals, and streetscape improvements.
Improve safety for all street users, including pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists.
