to gather the information that requires a significant data component to this so we can understand the dynamics of how many people are moving in from where >> so is there infrastructure improvements and how much money and how does this effect building - >> probably not building new stops but signage to make it clear to which stops are available and maybe they need a bigger bus place. >> you mentioned the symbolic you know the significance that those buses have taken on you have a general displeasure are muni you think this will disarm that. >> i think it lends a legitimate really of the shuttle

to our transportation system and that's been recognized by the bay area council. we didn't want them to be the symptoms of something else they're getting people to and from work and preventing thoisz thousands of cars from getting on the roads and really reducing the cartoonish emissions but their transporting people to work and that's really the essence of this conversation that he need to get people to work. so how do we make sure it compliments our muni system rather than brushes up against it to create for challenges and safety challenges and others this pilot will give us more information but the great part is the collaboration from the companies who provide the service they'll start discussing

with us officially what those challenges are on a zone by zone basis and how to improve the safety and effectiveness of the system >> do you have an issue of how the goose killed the golden egg those reduce the (inaudible) or getting people on cars and now there's regulations that is going into effect. >> we can survivor that if we impose it that's where the collaboration is so they know they want to not be in front of a muni bus trying to pickup people and coordinating steldz e schedules and don't want to exchange very clear congested

areas of forcing a bike rider into a lane and they want to know who else wants to coordinate with us and who wants to be in agreement with us rather than people who want to do their own thing. i think this is a great attempt to coordinate something and if we don't do it we'll have the challenges and by god safety is our number one issue >> (inaudible) shilt buses going to muni bus down to the drop off passengers and that's a financial detriment and (inaudible). >> using a muni zone in coordination with our very challenged muni system that's

been succeeding over the years but now we have a whole plan to get them resources i think that's a privilege to use the same spaces in a coordinated way and we're not talking about a tax we're getting a system they've agreed with us would be a better system then the he felt skeleton. >> thank you

>> thank you for coming again on i think just another momentum

jose has demonstrated. i want to say he's been such a great partner and i've had the privilege of working with him as a colleague but when i had the special chance of being the mayor here and wonder how to brag about san francisco i want to talk about more than the warriors something beyond supportship. look at what jose doing. so when we starting bragging about our chirnd program boy did you get a lot of attention from the other mafrz in the city. we brought him to a time when there was signature interest generated from the hard work jose has put together.

i know we were appointing someone who was going to go beyond the collection do side of that office. in those years as gavin will recall this city and a country faced itself down in horrible financial times and coming out of those years we asked ourselves what can we do better for the residents and the diverse community in the arena of financial planning and a allotcy and a sense from day one. and so the very creative idea came out and certainly i want to thank lieutenant mayor gavin newsom we're noting now nationally renowned for our san francisco program our kindergarten to college program.
