g. borden: it's like rescind -- >> six pages. >> commissioner g. borden: the only question i would just have, the one thing that people brought up that's pretty significant is when you reduce one of the lanes, if there's an emergency vehicle or something stopped, if the curb space is not available, they will be blocking that lane. something to consider for rush hour is maybe making tow away in those blocks maybe during those key hours but we can talk about that later. >> something i would like to add to that, we will revisit all of the reloading needs during the time of the project is to make sure those things aren't going to change as more businesses are coming in. in addition by removing that southbound lane we will have wider parking lanes, so hopefully that will minimize the amount of time the vehicles are possibly intruding in the traffic lane. >> chair c. brinkman: that's interesting. thank you. directors, any more questions? director rubke and hsu? >> commissioner c. rubke: where are the audible pedestrian signals either existing or to be add

g. borden: i have one more question. did you consider moving the parking on that block. >> between market and howard street? >> commissioner g. borden: yeah. >> there are a lot of commercial businesses, especially stevenson, we are seeing pinnacle coffee, home skillet. we aren't going to. >> chair c. brinkman: thank you. any other questions before i ask her to move onto taylor street? thank you. >> thank you. >> clerk: madam chair, directors, there was a typo. the board is not approving a parking protected bikeway for 6th street. >> chair c. brinkman: we will make sure to call it out. >> clerk: that would be deleted. >> chair c. brinkman: excellent, thank you. at what point have we not got the collision numbers down far enough and at that point would we consider further changes to the street? >> of all our projects i don't believe we ever consider them completely done when they are safety, because we want to monitor. traffic and performance patterns as well. typically we want to get a couple years of crash data before we

g. borden: luckily, the other end of market street, some are off the bus. the other final question, really construction, i think people brought up salient points around the sidewalks as we expand them. still having them available. people having access to store fronts, businesses. we hear this a lot in other corridors of the city and this area particularly struggles. so what are our mitigation plans around ensuring those businesses are able to access their deliveries, that customers can access them, that the sidewalks are usable? maybe you can talk a little about that? >> maybe i will ask shada, she heard from businesses and organizations about how important that was. i will turn it back over to her. >> thank you. so far i've been meeting with the public information officers with public works and i found out that they have a construction mitigation program and we also have our own and we are going to be partnering up with o.e.w.d. and public works to make sure that our suite of options really responds to the needs of the businesses. and that includes conside
