Myrna Melgar 梅義加 District 7 Supervisor is at New Traditions Elementary School. eoonrSptsdthf5mu83ghu5h97ic h 7 5 1t257l20i1cl164l1ah06f42cl191c · San Francisco · Today is the first day of a safer San Francisco. I joined students at New Traditions Elementary School to paint the curb red in order to make pedestrians more visible to drivers. This is called daylighting and it prevents 1 in 3 collisions. It saves lives. State law mandates that no car may park within 20 feet of a crosswalk. Starting today, the SFMTA will begin painting curbs red across the city so folks know not to park there and to make people safer — starting with school zones like this one. 🛑

A diagram explaining the hierarchy of controls, a concept from industrial engineering trying to reduce the risk of workplace hazards. The diagram lists strategies from top to bottom going from most effective to least effective. On the right, are those strategies applied to safer streets. In order: - Elimination (Ban Cars) - Substitution (Walking, Biking, Transit) - Engineering (Curbs, Bollards, Barriers) - Process (Signs, Education, Enforcement) - PPE (Helmets, Hi-Viz, Shame flags)

Streets & Transportation We support a fully-funded Muni, but we also expect accountability and efficiency from our public transportation system. We will ensure Muni is run by competent professionals and not derailed by a few gadflies who only want more parking. Meanwhile, electric and pedal assist bikes will make biking a fast, pleasant and viable option for all ages — if we also make room for bikes to get around safely and free from car traffic.
