[Cagdu] 1st draft of San Francisco Better Streets Plan released

[Jonathan Lyens]

Hello All, 

 

The first draft of the San Francisco Better Streets Plan has been
released. This plan is designed to make the streets and walk ways of San
Francisco friendly to all. Here is a quote from the Better Streets Plan
website.  

 

"The Better Streets Plan will create a unified set of standards,
guidelines, and implementation strategies to govern how the City designs

, builds, and maintains its pedestrian environment. The Better Streets
Plan process brings together staff of multiple City agencies to
comprehensively plan for streets. The Plan will seek to balance the
needs of all street users, with a particular focus on the pedestrian
environment and how streets can be used as public space. The Plan will
reflect the understanding that the pedestrian environment is about much
more than just transportation - that streets serve a multitude of
social, recreational and ecological needs that must be considered when
deciding on the most appropriate design." 

 

I sincerely encourage everyone that lives or visits San Francisco to
visit the link to the SF Better Streets Plan. They are requesting feed
back on this plan from stakeholders. I sincerely encourage all to
provide constructive feedback on this plan. Constructive feedback has
real potential to be incorporated as this plan moves forward. The link
is:
