This is normally a scary high speed intersection (I bike through it every morning 🤞🏼) Today, it’s the middle section of 6(!) total street blocks fully closed to cars… and replaced with merchants, food/drink, bands, outreach workers, and families. Streets are for people!
Kudos to Mayor @LondonBreed, Supervisor Melgar, and @SFMTA_Muni for taking swift action to make the West Portal intersection safer. Good roadway design saves lives, which is why we're sponsoring and supporting SB960, led by Senator @Scott_Wiener. buff.ly/3UkE6dg

SPUR created a database of local land use ballot measures that impact #housing production in California. Some of the 208 measures curb sprawl & protect open space. Others undermine housing production — & affordability — in infill locations. spur.org/planningbyball…
SPUR's commitment to safer streets and addressing California’s housing crisis is evident in our advocacy and co-sponsorship of key state bills. Learn more about our legislative efforts this session: spur.org/news/2024-04-0…

Listening to the SB 961 hearing right now: @Scott_Wiener's bill to add speed limiters on California cars. There is discussion about how it's "invasive" to WARN drivers if they're breaking the law... by having the car beep when they are putting others in danger. Infuriating.

Sitting at home watching the one and only @Scott_Wiener present SB 960 to the Senate Transportation committee. It’s a bill sponsored by my team at @SPUR_Urbanist (🥹) and our many partners. This bill makes CA’s state transportation agency BUILD bus & bike lanes on state roads.

Kudos to Mayor @LondonBreed, Supervisor Melgar, and @SFMTA_Muni for taking swift action to make the West Portal intersection safer. Good roadway design saves lives, which is why we're sponsoring and supporting SB960, led by Senator @Scott_Wiener. buff.ly/3UkE6dg

At the new ikea food hall right now in downtown SF and it’s genuinely SO COOL
This is normally a scary high speed intersection (I bike through it every morning 🤞🏼) Today, it’s the middle section of 6(!) total street blocks fully closed to cars… and replaced with merchants, food/drink, bands, outreach workers, and families. Streets are for people!
