11:01 pm
city or commute in the city. thank you for walking the walk this morning. a huge thank you to the number of city officials who walked in all the way to city hall from all different areas of the city. (applause). supervisor fewer walked two and a half-miles from the richmond district. [applause.] supervisors brown and haney and mandelman as well as mayor breed. every day it is part of every a long journey. the ability of walking is so powerful. it makes us healthier, it is good for the air, climate. it connects us to each other,
11:02 pm
and it grounds us to our communities. today is purely a celebration of walking, and everyone who walks. the beauty it is all of us. at walk san francisco we firmly believe that san francisco can and should be the most walkable city in the united states. [applause.] we are not quite there yet. our major street like market where over a half million people per day walk is one of the most dangerous streets in the city. on average three people are hit each day across san francisco while walking. sadly, already this year we have lost six pedestrians and one person riding a bike from traffic violence on the streets. we are ready for things to change. [applause.] we are ready to end-all severe
11:03 pm
and fatal crashes in san francisco. we are ready for san francisco where everyone of every age and ability can get around safely and easily and affordably. we are ready to show the nation san francisco is putting people first and what it is possible to do when you chase that goal. i believe our city leaders here with me today are ready to commit for the vision for san francisco. one person committed is our mayor, london breed. (applause). she is a vision zero champion pushing the city to fix the most dangerous streets and fast because she understands that lives depend on it. she is pushing hard to bring
11:04 pm
quick fixes to our most deadliest streets and has taken a stand on some streets that usually don't get the treatment they need like sixth street and taylor street. [applause.] she has helped secure fundings for a major project we are working on now, better market street. [applause.] her leadership is saving lives. please join me in welcoming madam mayor breed. . >> thank you. first of all, i want to thank walk sf for not only coordinating today's walk-to-work day, but mor more importantly the advo cassie they do to make sure we are accountable to adjust the streets so people are safe when they walk and move around the
11:05 pm
city and county of san francisco. let's be clear. when we make improvements to add dedicated bike lanes, when we make improvements to do daylighting and the things that we know that changes the infrastructure of the streets, it is about public safety, it is about keeping people safe. we have to continue to remember all of the lives that we lost because we haven't moved fast enough. the seven people that we lost in our streets this year alone is seven people too many. we know that when we delay with bureaucracy, when we delay with process, we know that means the delay could involve losing another person, which is why these changes in what we need to do to make our city safer, more
11:06 pm
walkable, more livable for all of us is so critical. [applause.] i spend a lot of time all over san francisco, and often times, when i see in terms of elder ofl elderly people trying to get across the street. we need to make those changes as well. we need vehicles to slow down, and we will be stepping up enforcement in this city. [applause.] how we move people around is so critical, and what that means is there are people walking, biking, there are people driving, and the only way we are going to get to a better place where not one more life is lost is if we make sure that we look out for one another, we make these improvements, get people
11:07 pm
to slow down. there is tons of work to do, and i know this board of supervisors although we don't agree on everything. we "glee" the i agree the improo make san francisco safe is something we can agree on. we will get the job done. thank you all so much for walking to work today. [applause.] >> it is my honor to introduce board president another vision zero total champion. >> thank you. i want to say that we need to change the culture about walking in san francisco. walking is not a privilege to walk safely. walking should be a right to walk safely in san francisco. we need to change that culture. i want to thank walk sf not only walk sf but all departments
11:08 pm
involved to try to make our streets safe, whether it is enforcement, engineering, education. thank you for all of these departments that really are kicking it up for us. [applause.] i really -- it is not enough to walk one day and have a little rally. it is about doing things all year around, getting changes done. we need to join together. we need to tell the state to let us have automated speed enforcement. i don't know what is going on outside of san francisco, we want it here, we need to send a loud message to the legislators to say we need it. the other thing we are going to do, and i am writing to the legislature for a local ordinance to make it safer than it is now, i want the quarters
11:09 pm
to be daylighted. when you cross the street the cars can see you. i don't know why we are not doing this now. we need to do it now, not tomorrow. join me to make san francisco a safe place for pedestrians to walk. thank you very much. [applause.] >> district one supervisor. >> good morning, everyone. i just want to give a shout out to all of my folks in d one who walked with me this morning. in fact we made great time. we stopped for a doughnut. this is a great way to start the morning. you know, on a more somber note, i have had two fatalities in my district within one month of each other. seniors, older chinese women in crosswalks. ththe infrastructure is importa. people need to slow down and pay
11:10 pm
attention when they are driving. i have been telling my residents that all of the time. i want to give a shout sought to the san francisco police department for beefing up the traffic unit. it is about enforcement, also. we don't like a ticket. this is saving lives. deputy chief red mon is there. we have been working with the chief to bring enforcement to the streets. i think people are getting sloppy about driving. we have a lost of congestion. my husband and i are walkers. we walk all of the time. when i hear about another pedestrian being hit it could be me or any of us here. pay attention. let's walk off. let's keep ourselves healthy by walking. it is something everyone can appreciate that we can do. i want to say thank you for coming out today, especially many, many thanks to walk sf.
11:11 pm
thank you. >> district the five supervisor brown. >> thank you. i want to say this is a great birthday present. thank you everybody. it is my birthday. i don't know where are the balloons? i just want to say i think a lot of my colleagues and mayor breed have said how important it is to have the pedestrian safety in place so we can walk. i am a walker, and one of the things that i think when we are walking and anybody that is a walker, you will understand this. we have to train in san francisco to be walkers, safe walkers. when you step into the streets, first thing you do is catch the eye of the driver that stopped at the stop sign. make sure they are stopping. if they are turning, catch their eye. these are the things we
11:12 pm
shouldn't be worrying about. we should be able to step out when the light is green for us to go, and for me i want to talk about the positives of walking. i walk through parks from eight ash bury. i will walk through buena vista park. then to alamo square. as i walk through my district, one of the things i can say is walking makes you feel so good especially in a place like this. it is absolutely a booster of your mood. i want to make sure, though, as we move forward, you know, and i'm thinking about this because it is my birthday. we are getting older. seniors in the city we -- our count down lights don't give us enough time to get across. when we look at these things, look at ways to help people get
11:13 pm
through the city and walk through the city and be safe. thank you everyone for coming. >> supervisor of district 6. >> happy walk-to-work day! let me start out with a confession. i walk to work every day. i live just a few blocks from here on high street. i have the privilege of being able to walk to work every day to city hall. as supervissor brown said it is the right way to go to a building to have that time coming to work and also walking home each night. we left late last night and i was able to walk directly home a couple blocks from here. i want to thank all of the folks from district 6 who walked in today.
11:14 pm
a special shout out to save passage. it is an organization through the tl cbd. every day when i walk into work they are there. not just protecting me but looking out for all of the kids and families as they walk to and from school every day. this is a community effort. we have a lot of work to do. sadly there have been a number of pedestrians hit in district six a few blocks from here on golden gate and leavenworth a woman was struck and killed by a car, and unfortunately there were a number of others since then on the same street who have been hit. i want to say we can't wait. we need to make immediate changes now. we need to, first of all, deal with crosswalks, daylighting, slowing traffic, actually making real changes in the streets, getting past some of the one way
11:15 pm
streets and absolutely enforcing things around uber and lyft and other bad actors to keep everyone safe. thank you. we are in this together. let's keep people safe. thank you. [applause.] >> thank you. now, i would like to welcome supervisor of district 8. >> good morning everybody. so many politicians speaking. i will be brief. we had a fantastic district 8 walk. district 8 folks, make a little noise. we were joined from supervisor mar's office in district four and stephanie came with us as well, district two. i think all of the districts in san francisco there is no day late around this issue. we are committed to vision zero,
11:16 pm
we need to make the streets safer. we need more enforcement. i was pleased earlier this year to pass along the climate emergency resolution. we all know there is no strategy to get us to saving the world that does not get people out of their cars. it is absolutely essential that people bike, take public transportation and walk. we also know there are so many -- one death -- any death is one too many. any severe injury is one too many. i will say i think having a board led by someone the personal experience in norman yee. the survivors and friends of those who died or have been severely injured in the crashes are most effective advocates. it is meaningful and powerful to have that leadership in city hall. thanks everybody who walked this
11:17 pm
morning. [applause.] >> director of the sf m.t.a. please. . >> morning. happy walk-to-work day everybody. it is meant to be a time to remind us walking is the best form of transportation. it is the best way around the city. it is fun and enjoyable especially on a day like this. it is good for you in terms of personal health and health of the city. it is good in terms of congestion and emissions. it is the best way to get around, and we see as our charge in making sure that the streets are safe and inviterring so that people see walking as a more viable option for more trips, not just on walk-to-work day but throughout the year. to that end we are working closely and furiously with our partners at public health,
11:18 pm
public works. police and fire, planning and all of us working with community leaders and supporters to make the streets safer. the urgency from the mayor and board of supervisors is shared by the board of directors. we have the message from our city leaders that we need to do more and better and faster. i accept jody's challenge that we make san francisco the best walking city in the country. vision zero's goal is to eliminate traffic fatalities by 2024. every death is tragic. we are working to make the streets safer. we will help truly make us the best walking city in america. thank you for coming out.
11:19 pm
