Areas of Focus
Traffic Calming on Mission Bay Blvds North and South
MTA is leading a project to develop and implement traffic calming measures focused on improving pedestrian and bike safety for Mission Bay Blvd from 6th Street (where Kindergarteners and older students will walk into and out of school each day. The goal is to implement improvements prior to August 2026.
​​
We expect that there will be an opportunity to preview SFMTA's designs in Q1 2026.
Traffic Circle Redesign
Our committee has been engaged with The San Francisco County Transportation Authority on developing more pedestrian and bike safe designs for the traffic circle in Mission Bay. This is a larger project, so it will not be completed prior to August 2026 though we sure hope the design is finalized by that time. We also remain hopeful that bike safety improvements could become possible for turning from 7th onto Mission Bay Drive to approach the traffic circle. ​

We expect that there will be an opportunity to see SFCTA's roundabout design in Q1 2026.
Pedestrian-safe stop sign for 6th & Nelson Rising Lane
Our A clear
The stop sign and pedestrian crosswalk on east side of Nelson Rising Lane are backwards. Cars drive over the crosswalk to get to the stop sign. UCSF maintains Nelson Rising Lane and our subcommittee is engaged with UCSF in seeking improvements to make this intersection logical for the benefit of both cars and families on foot.
​​​
We do not have a sense of timing around when UCSF can share designs or implementation plans with the community, but we are working on getting that insight soon.
