>> like painted on the [inaudible] you have stencils and imagine a p with no parking or something to that effect. >> we can go back to the slide and walk you through. so, you can't-so, this shows a spot reserving for bike share stations. this is what the wide zone will look like and still a work in praun progrtss what the striping will be. the idea is this will be a white stripes and shown on black on the paper but are white stripes. this is a white passenger zone. i hate saying that. here are the yellow spaces which are for truck loading and this is the painted buffer. we are planning as of this moment to use our traditional parking t's

to make it clear thris is a metered parking space. these are for trucks. up here where it is a white zone, there is no t's because you don't park there t is just for louding. we have put thought how this work squz we are doing other protected bikeways as we innovate this. the bottom line is we have a idea and watch it very closely and if we need to install rubber curb segments or better signage we haven't done the sign plan yet and will be mounted on the street lights just the typical no parking. we need to develop a sign if it says this is floating loading zone, which is brand new. work in progress. >> what i'm implying with this where you have the slash, diagonal white buffer zone, that is what i suggest

considering putting in like a stencil that says no parking in there because for whatever reason sometimes some people do park on that-on top of it in golden gate park on the jfk lanes and creates this sort of line of parking that i suppose is-it becomes a problem i think because that buffer zone is gone and then it is less safe bike lane. i guess what i suggest is consider how you enforce it or not and see if there are lesson to be learned from maybe putting down a stencil that says no parking in the white diagonal slash because people do it all the time, well not all the time-if is interesting to see if there is a way to get better enforcement there before maybe doing something like that here. >> i do think on jfk there are stencils and say no parking.

maybe we need bigger ones and p where a cross out. >> something like that i think will be warranted there. >> thank you very much. excellent presentation. motion and second? >> josey aaron followed by charles defargs. those are the only people who turned in speaker cards. good afternoon. >> good afternoon directors. josey aaron and the new neighborhood organizer with walk san francisco. on behalf of walk sf i would like to express our strong support for this exciting project. i will make the segment more pleasant and safe for everyone. we are excited to see a project that prioritizes pedestrians and includes features like bull bouts which increase pedestrian visibility, decrease the distance to cross and slow turning vehicles, wider sidewalks which act as a

barrier between pedestrians and traffic with landscape. the conversion of folsom to two way traffic which calm traffic. a street that connects people to parks and open space. we are thrilled to see the city building out green connections like folsom with rain garden squz other feature. we love to see the rest of folsom when the folsom howard project is implement to be designed comprehensively with green and traffic calming features as this project. we look forward to many more projects like folsom streetscape breaking ground soon. >> charles defargs and he is the last person to address you today. >> good afternoon. my name is

defarj and campaign coordinator at the san francisco bike coalition. this is a project we are excited about specifically the protected bike lanes from second to embarcadero. souckt of market is one the most heavily bike trafficked areas in san francisco despite being one the most dangerous. the projects sets to transform folsom into a bikeable street something it is not today. the improvements open up the east end of folsom lowing two way bike traffic and providing important north/south connection to howard on main, beel and fremont. the result is more accessible ceblthed and vibrant for people walk{biking. thank you guys and thank you to greg at mta. this is a

great project. >> we have motion and veckd second? >> aye. >> item twevlg, discussion whether to conduct a closed session. motion to conduct a closed session. >> second? all in favor say aye. we will go in closed ession. >> discuss city attorney voted to settle the cases. 14, appropriate for motion to disclose or not disclose the information discussed >> motion to not disclose. >> all favor say aye. we are adjourned. thank you very much

(shouting.). >> more and more city's high san francisco is committing to dislocate to end all traffic

death that means improving safety for people walking and driving and safety on our streets is everyone's responsibility people can make mistakes but not result in injury or death all traffic collisions are preventable as drivers you play a large role that will give you the tools to drive safely on streets a recent survey asks hundreds of drivers about save city introduce driving what did they say watch for distracted behavior and slow down and be patient and check for people before you turn the facts about city driving shows how important to be alert most collisions happen in good

weather allowance even at 25 mile-per-hour it takes a vehicle 85 feet to stop this is almost 7 car lengths slowing down makes collisions less savior when a person is hit by a passerby vehicle 25 minor the chance of death is 25 percent 40 percent that increases inform 85 percent slowing down didn't cost much time driving behind a person takes 9 extra semiautomatic and stopping at the yellow light takes only 30 seconds by hitting someone costs you hours and weeks of our time and maybe a life take a deep breath and take you're time cities cross america are being

safely for walking and driving some streets are confusing here's what you need to know all intersection kroukz of novelist marked some are marked to make them more visible other crosswalks and intersections are raised to the level of sidewalk to actress as speed bump and people are maybe crossing be cautious and watch for people when you approach any intersection advanced limit lines and pedestrian yield signs show drivers where people walk and stop behind the lines at stop signs and for people crossing bulb outs where the sidewalks extends into the street make that tease easy to see pedestrians and remember to slow

down whether making reasons and watch for people on sidewalk estimations extensions that maybe closer than you expect and bicyclists may motive to the left to get around bulb outs this gives people a head start allowing pedestrians to enter the crosswalk before transfer starts moving makes them more visible pedestrian scrimmage and stop the vehicles in all directions allow people to cross including department of building inspection scrambles are paired with no light restriction and rapid beacons you turn bright whether the pedestrians are there or the center is activated precede slowly as you approach the beacons especially, if their activated a pedestrian crossing

light turns yellow before turning sold red back to flash red procedure after making a full stop as long as the sidewalk is empty and, of course, stop whenever the light is red traffic circles reduce conflicts you must stop at the strewn and precede around the raise your right hand of the circle watch for people in crosswalks and people in bikes coming around the circle arrows indicate where people with bikes share the intersections and people have ride to people on bikes have the right to use the lane whether or not in the sharing bike lanes

are for people protected by parks e.r. parked cars and stay out of separated bike lanes unless an emergency dashed bike lanes are a shared zone four for vehicles to change lanes slow bike lanes allow the circles their unusually sprayed before me from other traffic some bike lanes are built to the level higher than the street but lower than the sidewalk they provide a safe separated space sponsor cyclists are around vehicles the box areas are marked with the stencil at intersections act as advanced limit lines for people to garter at a red light this increases the 1r0ir7b9 to drivers people will ride past

stopped vehicles at the fronltd of the intersection give them room and stop short of limit line behind the bike without objection and cross only after the green light and people cleared the bike box bicycle traffic lights allow people on bikes to proceed while vehicles are stopped be unaware aware of those bike san francisco general hospital but stay alert and only skrans when the vehicle is cleared the intersection let's take a quiz to see what all of learned here we go number one when do month collisions happen did you say in daytime you're correct question two if an intersection is not marched is it still a crosswalk yes did you get it right great job

one more before we go on what's one of the best things to do to avoid collisions? you can it take a breath pay attention and slow down city streets are crowded and chaotic so seeing everyone every single everything is difficult here's a test how many times did the white team pass the ball? if you answered 11 you're correct but did you notice anything else also be aware ever you're surrounded and remember that is easy 0 miss something if you're not looking for it

here's some basic principles driving near peep e people from you're driver's seat it is difficult address our mirrors to reduce blind spots people on bicycles maybe be in our blind spot give yourselves plenty of time to react look out stay on the road from building to building not just curve to curve check driveways and behind parked vehicles for people that enter our path turning vehicles are especially dangerous important people walking and collisions often occur when vehicles are making tunnels when you turn remember check for people using the crosswalk before starting you're turn watch for people on bikes

traveling in the ongoing direction always check our mirrors and blind spots patience pays off take a moment to make sure you're clear while it might feel you'll save time by driving fast or turning without checking you won't save driving only adds a few semiautomatic to our trip a collision can cost you, your job or someone's live here's important things to remember all crosswalks are legal and pedestrian have the right-of-way people cross the street anywhere children and seniors and people with disabilities are the most vulnerable think city strits give buses and streetcars a lot of the space or people returning to catch a train don't block the

box this creates dangerous situation for people walking how are forced into moving traffic and people bicycling out of the bike lane and people on bikes most city streets are legal for bicyclists even without signs people biking can fall in front of you provide a safe amount of space when passing someone on a bike a minimum of 3 feet is required by law in california and people on bikes prefer to be in the bike lane in for the this is often to avoid accidents give them room people on bikes will stay away from the traffic or watch out for open doors whoops that was a close one expect people to go to

the front of the light and pass on the right a tap of the horn maybe useful to make you're preservation known but avoid using the horn it may saturday night be someone vehicles anybody right turns are especially dangerous important biking always approach right turns properly signal early and wait for people biking through the intersection move as far to the right to people on bikes can pass on the left let's try a few more questions who are the most vulnerable people on city streets? children? seniors, and people with disabilities why do people on bikes ride close to travel there to avoid

car doors what is one of the most dangerous situations for people walking and riding bikes? turning vehicles and what can you do to make sure that everyone is safe in any situation? thartsz stay patient and alert and, of course, slow down parking and loading a vehicle on accredit city streets is a challenge weather parking and unloading always check for people in our mirrors and blind spots and on the driver's side with our right turn right hand this causes you to look 40 on your left for

bicyclists when passersby exiting the vehicle make sure about opening the door know where loading zones are if not loading zones available use side streets never stop in bike lanes or traffic lanes. >> bad weathering and visible rain and fog or low lighting make it hard to see you're vehicle is likely to slide or loss control in eye i didn't controls and create issues for people walking and biking they tried try to avoid pulled and umbrellas and construction get slippery for people the safety thing to do in conditions whether wet or icy or dark slow

down and drive more carefully remember going fast may on this save you a few semiautomatic but speeding may cause you a life or you're job people walking and biking are vulnerable people can be distracted or make unsafe decisions as a driver the responsibility for safety lies with you a collision could mean the loss of our life or you're job and dealing with the legal implementations could take years or an emotional toll if someone is killed in a crash help us achieve vision zero and everyone can use the streets safely. >> thank you for watch and following the important driving tests your remember we're counting on you
