C. Is having the prices own their metro the biggest um, plan for Transportation Demand management um, which is in progress in new york city called the crisis really called the Central Business district ive spoken and because we have too many cars on the road 40i can we get more people into the buses and owe trains and other shared vehicles like electrical riders and r v bell ringing people are riding bikes. Tdm can certainly help make the streets safer im a pedestrian and try crossing three 4 in new york city cars block the intersection all the time that is hard to cross the streets we have that issue here im sure so this a Great Program i look forward to more details thank you, bell ringing new york is the worst example the streets you are talking about sir, im sorry im sorry i dont want to be personal or i hope everyone understand this is not just in San Francisco but new york city and unintelligible is.

Hi, good morning commissioners sfgovtv we have our slides up and looks like we are not seeing the screen yet. Thank you. So this presentation today includes 4 requests. The first prop l for the Mission Street 4. Million and the temporary link were implementing in covid and fulltime on Mission Street and routes 14 and regional expressway the project will have the transit and traveling lanes for collisions and allow more operations in the current curve site parking on the streets and will have 82 percent for the prop l. So the top photo for the crosssection for the temporary trait lanes for implementing and the bottom is the Cross Sections as is changes were implemented and will be permanent those are the changes to the number of parking and passenger loading for emergency travel lanes and following the implementation of the temporary emergency lane projects a series of surveys for the groups as well as the technical evaluations and will be designed in the spring and this request for the vision zero lefthand turn traffic calming one hundred thousand for the construction and under this program have completed work by prop k and work orders to be identified and mta requests funds for the traffic calming measures at the 13 of the locations and will be determined the packet is the district streets 4, 5, 6 and 9 a prop l after implementation the staff will raise support by the nearby organizations outreach for those and upon completion of the location staff will evaluate the lefthand turn calming and average those speeds with other evaluations for the speed limit reduction to fund the construction and mta quickly implementing the state elective ab 43 to reduce the speed limits by implementing new 20 mileperhour for the signage and education and as of january 2024 the mta has mroementd the slower speed limits and 2023 was if you wanted and knitted the design and construction outreach materials and evaluation and support for the highest campaign with the light banners and others things the project for this street will support that. And the last request for one hundred and 48 thousand for the Strategic Plan and allocation of prop l for the tdm Strategic Plan will be monitored and prop l which you acted on and tdm develops a new list of measures for the post pandemic and the plan will identify the projects led by sponsors sf and bart and caltrain and use the plan for other Funding Sources.

And we have project manager available and sfgovtv im finished my presentation we will have no questions open up for Public Comment. Thats valuable and it is great but not investing the best dollars. Actually unintelligible but otherwise, i see we already are 125ishd that zero so vision zero i said before just to be clear, zero vision the very least i can say unintelligible . So 13 and vision zero proof that is enough. Thanks again chair mandelman and members for the record with team fold and those are decent those are good i like the idea of traffic calming. And reducing the exceeds on the street. This idea of lefthand turn calming seeing the picture with the stripes i think should help to slow down and reduces infliction in the neighborhood and slowing down and taking the speed limit down to 20 will not slow down the directives but it can make it easier for me to navigate the streets we passed this now going to allocate the money to begin the work um, of the tdm. And so im always some support of traffic calming should not be stressful for anyone by feet or bikes or scooters or shared vehicles a v, etc. I think that will help to make better streets bell ringing i could or dont see this is any reason not to get a yes.
