cost of the improvement plan at 600 million. and i think i still -- you know, i want to ask the same question i've asked before which is really what is the purpose and vision and kind of why is this a critical need? we have so many different transportation desires, whether it's a second transbay to downtown extension, capital improvements to our bus system. i think i still continue to -- by the way. it's not that i don't like this project. i just really want to understand why this project is critical in relation to all of our other transportation priorities. >> i'm going to pull up a slide here. t -- here the department of public health helped us pull together. these are the collisions that have happened along market street in the last five years.

when they did their study, it was 2005 to 2009, but the data hasn't changed much. this was market street from stewart on the right all the way -- i think it goes all the way to laguna. the red circles are the number of injuries along market street. the largest circle's at 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th, are anywhere from 14 to 30 collisions happening in the area. and all of the yellow crosses are fatalities and severe injuries. so the largest x's at 6th and at 3rd represent four significant injuries or fatalities. i bring up the slide because market street is by far the corridor in the city with the most severe injuries and

fatalities, primarily pedestrians that are getting hit. >> supervisor kim: and who are they getting hit by, given the limited number of vehicles on market street? >> so i think it's a combination of vehicles -- i don't have the data here with me, but it's vehicles, transit vehicles, delivery vehicles, as well. i think there may have been some bicycle involved collisions, as well. >> supervisor kim: where a cyclist killed a pedestrian? >> no. i think cyclists may have been hit by cars or hit pedestrians. >> supervisor kim: i'm curious how many of these collisions include muni? >> i can get that for you. this is sort of the overview of all of the corridor and what's been happening over the past several years. >> supervisor kim: i only bring this up because i -- the ones that i remember in recent history involved a muni vehicle, and i think it really raises the question of the type of training that we're providing to our drivers, less than the engineering on the

street. by the way, this is really helpful to see the data. i just want to understand why the injuries and fatalities are happening. i actually like that we've made it difficult for private vehicles to drive on market street, and that we route them off. actually, i don't think that market street is an appropriate street for private vehicles. it should be designated for muni and cyclists and pedestrians. market street is a project that i've been getting briefed on since 2011, and it has not moved very far. i think i continue to still be a little confused about the purpose of this major project only given the $600 million price tag. i know i -- at the last meeting -- this was, i think a year, 1.5 years ago, a significant portion of it was related to -- i want to say the power station and embarcadero,

and so i think it continues to be helpful for us to see the breakdown to how much of it is on the street and how much of it is infrastructure because i think that price tag always kind of creates that gasp, and so i think it's important to continue to update the board on how that cost breakdown goes. >> yes. i pulled up a slide again from the powerpoint presentation. so the work is in there. it's 100 million. >> supervisor kim: thank you for bringing that slide back up. >> the state of good repair work is in that stack. it also includes the f-line loop. in future updates, i'll definitely provide clear breakdowns of the state of good repair versus the project itself. state of good repair would have to happen with or without the project, so unfortunately, when we've shown these price tags,

it's included all of the infrastructure improvements, and there is work that is separate, unrelated to the project. it'll be built -- take advantage of the construction contract to build the improvements. >> supervisor kim: is it important for all of this work to happen in the combined package? for example, i think the totescaping and paving -- streetscaping and paving is critical. >> we're actually thinking of breaking it up to segments geographically, but doing all of the work at the same time. we need to do the underground work before we do the pavement renovation, so we'll do the sewer, water, utility relocation. then we'll pave, and at the same time we'll replace the

brick sidewalks, installing new pa pavers and the landscaping. >> supervisor kim: and what is the expected timeline for that? >> for completion or actual construction? jap jane for phase one. >> we anticipate it'll take two years for full construction of all of the improvements between 6th and 8th, and we are evaluating what adding another block would do to the timeline. we're also looking at what construction strategies we can implement to help bring that timeline down and try to tighten it up, minimizing impacts to the businesses along the midmarket area. >> supervisor kim: and when you say it's a two-year timeline, what is the desired start date? >> we anticipate starting in july of 2020. that means we'd have to advertise the contract at the

end of 2019, early 2020, but you may see construction starting in, you know, late spring, early summer of 2020. >> supervisor kim: and phase one is estimated to cost 79 million. >> yes. >> supervisor kim: currently, there's a $5 million funding gap. and what sources of revenue are we looking at to close this gap? >> so we're looking at the possibility of using additional m.t.a. funding or general obligation bond. we're looking at other measures, you know, possibly regional measure three, once that clears up. we applied for the build grant, which would be great, but like i said, we're not really optimistic that that will come into the city. i mentioned the state of good repair funds from the federal transit authority. we're hoping that that will

lineup with our phase one construction, and that would pretty much fill the gap for some of the state of good repair work. >> supervisor kim: and i know that this was a cause for concern in 2017, but have we seen federal transit dollars not come to california or to the bay area since that time? >> jeff's going to take that one. >> supervisor kim: sure. jump in, please. >> there's a difference between the discretionary versus the biformula work funds. they do receive some biformula for the bogc. we haven't seen f.t.a. disburse a lot of that not just nationwide, so that would be the small starts, new start funding money that we were fortunate to get for vanness. we definitely want to continue to seek that for this project, better market street, and geary. >> supervisor kim: so the trump administration hasn't moved on the infrastructure

commitments that he campaigned on. it's not just a regional bias. >> nationally, it's a slow disbursement from what congress appropriated. >> supervisor kim: we'll have to look at other state funds to secure project construction, and so do we -- this is not just on sfcta, but i guess on all of our transit agency, kind of what is our contingency plan. >> we really hope not to have to do that. it would be a crisis for california for cities up and down the state. right now it's about 50 million chair mentioned during his remarks, so the back plan would have to be debated locally. perhaps we could be talking about other revenue measures,

even at the regional level, again, not just here in san francisco but with others in the bay area. >> supervisor kim: have we programmed most of the gas tax money? >> oh, absolutely, yeah, both agencies have, and other transit agencies. >> supervisor kim: okay. thank you so much. this is always really helpful, and i do really appreciate that we get these updated. thank you. >> you're welcome. >> supervisor peskin: are there any other questions or comments from commissioners? seeing none, is there any public comment on this item? seeing none, public comment is closed, and we look forward to your next update. is there any introduction of new items? is there any general public comment, mr. lebrun? >> good morning, chair peskin, supervisors. first of all, congratulations,

a big thank you for your unanimous approval of the pennsylvania avenue extension, or p.a.x. the reason i'm addressing you today is that i do believe that you're aware of this pendi pending .5 billion trade on second street. the reason i'm addressing you today is i want to bring your attention to the additional impact of this crater on the existing capacity of the train box itself. specifically we're going to lose half of the storage capacity because of the way that we are approaching the train box. so i want to thank you for including my letters in the final version of the packet, and in particular, i'd like to turn your attention to page 17 of the packet, which highlights the potential condemnation of $2 billion of san francisco

prime real estate between main street and embarcadero. so in closing, i'd like to make two recommendations. first of all, is that you accelerate the hiring of the person building -- the engineer. it's really critical as we move forward on these projects. and second, that you consider issuing an r.f.p. for the approach to the terminal from the east bay. specifically starting at the seawall and heading towards the terminal. thank you. >> supervisor peskin: thank you, mr. lebrun. is there any additional public comment? mr. strauss? seeing no additional public comment, public comment is closed, and the t.a. is adjourned.

talents which he learned from her grandmother's kitchen to open a restaurant and other cities and other places in our city, she chose to stick with her community. she chose to invest in the bayview hunter process point community because she truly believes in this community and what we need to do to make sure that people who are part of this community actually have a stake in keeping it the way that it needs to be for the residents of this community. the san francisco -- unfortunately it has suffered a decline in our african-american population. we know that that continues to be a challenge. that is why we are so grateful to april for choosing this community to invest in. for choosing to invest in her home. so i don't know about you, but some of you might be familiar with her fried chicken at auntie april his. you may want to get familiar. supervisor cohen and i have had more than our fair share.

we continue to support her business and continue to make sure that she is growing and thriving. this second investment in this corridor is proof that she is going to continue to grow and thrive and be an important part of the small business community here in the bayview hunter's point. and part of what made this possible are a number of important things, including open and -- opening s.f. it helps small businesses navigate the crazy and bureaucratic process that exists in city hall. many of you know about that when it comes to small businesses, when it comes to housing, when it comes to a number of things in order to get something as simple and incredible as this business open, the city sometimes can be an obstacle. so open s.f. played an important role to navigate the system. the other program that is

incredibly important in making sure that this business grows and thrives is the ability to get a liquor license at an affordable price. three state legislation clock we were able to make this possible and make it more affordable because most of you no kak that there is a limit to liquor licenses in san francisco. they can range in the market anywhere from $250,000 and because of our program and because of our ability and our desire to invest in communities like the bayview hunter's point, the liquor license for this establishment was about $15,000. huge.
