Close the intersection of West Portal and Ulloa to car traffic and install Transit-Only Lanes

Close the intersection of West Portal and Ulloa to car traffic and install Transit-Only Lanes

The intersection of West Portal Avenue and Ulloa Streets is dangerously designed and, with its numerous Muni stops and large number of people walking and biking through the area, it should be closed...

Two people were killed in West Portal near the intersection of West Portal Avenue and Ulloa Street — an intersection with multiple Muni bus and train stops — and SFMTA should close the intersection to car traffic while it studies improvements. Statement ➡️docs.google.com/document/d/e…

Ordinary people are capable of extremely aggressive behavior when they drive a motor vehicle. And if something tragic happens they call it an accident.

Clement street farmer’s market is bustling despite 0 (😱) on street parking. People flock to car free spaces for their quiet, safety, community, and fun.

Sucks that Hayes is open to cars again. Came down here for a family brunch at @thebirdsf and won’t be coming back until we can eat safely.

Look at how effective the concrete was at slowing the car! A breakaway post fountain would have done nothing.

Replying to @Apple
@Apple Since many people can ride a bike faster than 10 mph — Apple Maps’s default speed — and with the increasing adoption of e-bikes (which can go up to 28 mph without peddling), not offering an option/setting for biking speed is flawed and encourages people to drive. @Tim_Cook – at San Francisco, CA

But this makes them sound like a blight upon humanity. Maybe “family bikes are the new mini vans”?
