2 OUR TRAFFIC SAFETY TOOLKIT TRAFFIC CALMING TRAFFIC OPERATIONS & PEDESTRIAN SAFETY Different types of traffic calming are appropriate on different types of streets most often traffic calming involves physical safety improvements such as: Traffic operations utilize regulatory measures, such as STOP signs and traffic signals, which are used to control traffic at an intersection. Such measures may need to meet criteria established by the state and federal level. Speed Hump Painted Safety Zone (PSZ) Stop signs Crosswalks Regulatory measures are commonly used on arterials and connectors (i.e.,.,., and Traffic Circle Alemany Blvd.) but can also be used on residential streets with heavy activity at intersections. Raised Crosswalk Median Island CORRIDOR OR NEIGHBORWAY IMPROVEMENTS Traffic calming is commonly used on residential streets. Neighborhood streets should feel safe and inviting, especially to walk and bike to nearby destinations like parks, schools and shops. A neighborway supports this idea by concentrating a variety traffic calming and operational tools on preferred routes. Herman/Steiner

Supervisor Safai and the San Francisco County Transportation Authority are providing funding for the SFMTA to implement a number of spot improvements this year at high priority locations. The map shows a number of locations that have been highlighted by his office and in our work with the community to date. Over the next few months we will be narrowing down the top locations for near-term implementation. We want to hear from you if you support these locations or forsee any issues with these identified spot improvements.

5 PRIORITY NEIGHBORWAY CORRIDORS From conversations we ve had with community members and stakeholders, we have identified priority locations for neighborways. These corridors have emerged as high priority neighborhood connections for walking and biking, as well as clusters of streets nearby schools.
