Valencia Bikeway Improvements Open House

Nearby Muni Routes: 9, 9R, 14 Mission, 24, 49, 67, J Church

Following a successful pilot implementation of parking-protected bike lanes between Market Street and 15th Street in spring 2019, the SFMTA began advancing design work between 19th Street and Cesar Chavez and has developed a draft design to share with the community.

Please stop by the open house anytime from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. to share your public comment on the proposed changes. As part of the SFMTA’s Quick-Build Program, this open house will also serve as a public hearing. This next phase of improvements includes parking-protected bikeways, parking and loading changes, adding parking meters to side streets, left-turn restrictions, stop changes for the 12-Folsom and commuter shuttle program, and pedestrian improvements such as daylighting and advanced limits lines on Valencia Street from 19th Street to Cesar Chavez. Pending the approvals process, the improvements are anticipated to be installed in spring 2020. We look forward to seeing you there!

Our Meeting Round-Up feature highlights different SFMTA public meetings that will be held within the coming two weeks. These meetings give you the chance to share your ideas and provide us with helpful feedback. Join us at our next meeting to learn more about SF's changing and complex transportation system.

Those listed above are just a few highlights. You can find a full list of upcoming meetings to keep up to date on your favorite SFMTA committees.

And the impact of the crisis will continue to be felt city-wide long beyond the end of the public health emergency.

One of our city’s most revered politicians, Milk's legacy as the first openly gay San Francisco supervisor and elected official in California helped in breaking down discriminatory barriers and usher LGBTQ+ politicians in government positions.

Mr. Green was a barrier-breaking figure in his own right, by becoming the first African American appointed to Muni's top position from his beginnings with the Agency as a bus operator.
