mr. hiden, gabriel chan. >> rachel heiden with san francisco transit raitt riders. please do not undo on geary or 6th street. generally speaking and on part of this project as well, san francisco transit riders is extremely supportive of transit-only lanes, better bus stops, improvements, right. i'm here to support this project. hoping i can get you to commit to amending legislation or reporting back to the public. rapid removal at spruce is a violation of transit-first policy. normally as an organization we don't typically weigh in on specific stop removals but we >> good afternoon m.t.a. board, i'm gabriel chan, a long time resident, i've been using the geary and spruce my whole life. i'm interning so this is a great experience for me. i want to voice my concern, taking away the rapid stop at spruce violates the spacing of stops along the route. we see about a one-third mile spacing right now and taking away that stop at spruce would double that between aguello and presidio. i think it's more useful to have the rapid stop there to serve more people and more riders
