express lanes are not new. first lanes opened in 2010 with other lanes opening since then including california 237, i-580 and i-680. this is the first step for san francisco in joining that regional conversation. this is part of a larger collection of studies on the 101 corridor identified in the recent funding bill as one of the high priority corridors in california. this shows other efforts. blue identifies the carpool lane in existence in santa clara that runs from san jose to san francisco. and mateo is exploring an express lane frommed wood city north. this would contribute to a reliable travel expense. the corridor we know that has the worst congestion but many residents in jobs. getting to more specifics in san francisco. the study explored existing conditions documenting bottlenecks and delays and causes in san francisco. we conducted the analysis with the eye towards implementing something to benefit users in san francisco. one of the interesting findings is the bay bridge is the contributing bottlenec

the lane that is for me and enter the car traffic lane. there, i'm vulnerable to even more uber drivers who are paying more attention to their phones than the road. even when i'm in the bike lane, i'm susceptible to cars as uber drivers pull over. i have had more close calls than any other street in san francisco. every day after i bike on valencia, i arrive to my destination shaken, scared and angry. this is an entirely preventable problem. clearly enforcement of these double parking violations isn't happening and something needs to be done. protected bike lanes have proven themselves to keep our streets safe for everyone. valencia street has been a safe and visionary corridor for people instead of a series of crashes waiting to happen. the time for doing nothing has passed. people deserve to be safe. i urge the board of superisors to support funding for protected bike lanes on the entirety of valencia street. thank you. >> chairman peskin: next speaker. >> public: my name is christopher. san francisco resident for about six years. althou

before there was a bike lane at all.o, that kind of shows how bad it is and i'm going to reflect the comment made earlier. i hardly ever use it anymore. if i can avoid it, i will go side streets, all that. and the protected bike lane that was built south of cesar chavez has been great. all of a sudden it is working. so, i would definitely also encourage to get this project expedited as fast as possible. thank you for funding it. but keep funding it and pushing the uber lift situation as other people said is completely untenable. it is out of control. so, something needs to be done in whatever form. but i will also add my voice to say this is really urgent. i have seen people actually getting hit. i have seen so many near misses. i have been in near misses. it feels like a battlefield and that's not good for drivers either. they get scared. they come from out of town. like what's going on? we need to do something to make it work for everybody and there are solutions. like the protected bike lanes and other stuff. thank yo
