Muni Adding More Service July 9

The 6 Haight/Parnassus was temporarily suspended in March 2020 and will be brought back into service July 9, 2022, along with the 2 Sutter and 21 Hayes.

As the SFMTA prioritizes service equity and responds to changing travel patterns, we are planning to bring back additional routes that have been temporarily suspended since March 2020: The 2 Sutter (formerly 2 Clement), 6 Haight/Parnassus and 21 Hayes. The 6 Haight/Parnassus will return to its full pre-pandemic route, while the 2 Sutter and 21 Hayes will return in response to community feedback with changes to make the most of limited resources. System improvements like transit-only lanes and subway upgrades have helped us make transit service more reliable overall as we keep restoring routes.

These changes are part of the 2022 Muni Service Network plan. Read more about what we heard from the public and how we incorporated feedback into the 2022 service proposal.

The 2 Sutter will run between Ferry Plaza on Steuart Street near Embarcadero and Presidio Avenue and California Street, restoring connections to the Jewish Community Center food hub – a priority for many seniors we heard from. Customers who want to reach Clement Street (one block south of California Street) will be able to transfer to the 1 California at California Street and Presidio Avenue to continue west.

The 21 Hayes will run between Fulton and Shrader streets near St. Mary’s Hospital to Hyde and Grove streets, by Civic Center Station and the Main Library, restoring connections to the hospital. Customers who want to continue along Market Street can transfer to any eastbound Muni Metro subway route, the F Market surface rail, or one of the bus routes serving Market Street including the 6 Haight/Parnassus and 7 Haight/Noriega.

We will publish comprehensive service change details including maps later this month.

Route Modifications

We plan to make modifications to several existing routes to restore access and connections that community members have requested. These modifications improve or restore connections to food hubs and hospitals for people with disabilities and seniors and access to jobs for Service Equity neighborhoods

The 23 Monterey will be extended to its pre-pandemic route along Sloat Boulevard.
The 28 19th Avenue will be extended to Powell and Beach streets to provide east-west connections to Fisherman’s Wharf across the northern part of the city.

The 43 Masonic will be extended to its pre-pandemic route to serve the Presidio, Marina and Fort Mason.
The 52 Excelsior will return to its pre-pandemic route.
The 57 Parkmerced will be extended to West Portal.
The 58 Lake Merced will return to Lake Merced Boulevard and Brotherhood Way.
The 66 Quintara will return to its pre-pandemic route.

In addition to these changes, the L Bus will be shortened and increase frequency between the San Francisco Zoo and West Portal Station in response to changing trip patterns and subway improvements. With more subway reliability after extensive repairs and maintenance, many L Bus riders are choosing to transfer to the subway at West Portal for a faster ride to downtown. This allows us to shorten the L Bus route while increasing frequency and putting limited resources on other routes that are experiencing crowding.

Looking Ahead

We plan to continue implementing the approved 2022 Muni Service Network in additional phases as we bring more transit operators onboard. Read more about the complete 2022 Muni Service Network plan.

New top story from Time: The Security Perimeter Around the Capitol Starts to Recede — and Washington Feels a Little More Normal

https://ift.tt/3ssgaEo This article is part of the The DC Brief, TIME’s politics newsletter. Sign up here to get stories like this sent to your inbox every weekday. Washington isn’t a city particularly known for its rationality. We do overreaction better than most, and that talent is rivaled only by underreaction. Passions fuel far too much public policy, personalities dictate what is possible and personal relationships often triumph over pragmatism. It’s something I usually bemoan and curse under my breath — or, increasingly, in this newsletter. So you’ll forgive a moment of indulgent irrationality and some merriment. For, you see, the fencing around the U.S. Capitol has come down. Well, not all of it. And the barriers that remain don’t have an expiration date and may never get one. But at least some of the garish barricades that went up in response to the deadly failed insurrection on Capitol Hill on Jan. 6 have been dismantled. The razor-wire on its top is gone, too...

New top story from Time: What Counts as a Mass Shooting? Why so Much of America’s Gun Violence Gets Overlooked

https://ift.tt/3dg1qSG In the past two weeks, two horrific mass shootings have made national news across the United States. On March 22, a gunman killed 10 people at a Boulder, Colo. grocery store, including a police officer responding to the scene. A 21-year-old man has since been charged with ten counts of murder, after surrendering to police at the scene. Just six days earlier, on March 16, a mass shooting occurred at three spas and massage parlors in the Atlanta metropolitan area. A 21-year-old man has since been charged with eight counts of murder, having been arrested after a police chase. Of the eight people killed, six have been identified as Asian and Asian-American women; the incident has been widely viewed targeted attack against the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community, at a time when violence and racism against the AAPI community in the country has been on a marked rise.

Meet the People of the Next Generation CIS: Leon Yu

Meet the People of the Next Generation CIS: Leon Yu By Deanna Leo Leon Yu, Graphic Artist, Creative Services What do you do on the project? I help design the user experience: What users see on the new displays, how they see it and how often they see it, down to the actual graphics. How do you feel your work impacts our customers? Who will benefit? My work communicates transit information to customers as cleanly and clearly as possible, so the information is easy for any member of the public to understand. We only have a small space to work with on the displays, so we must make it count. People of all backgrounds, languages and abilities, so need to get this information quickly at a glance. What was your favorite part of the project? My favorite part is working with the team and all the different CIS systems. This is such a multidisciplinary project involving many staff and people I’ve never worked with before. Being able to coll...

A Brief History of the T Third Part 1: 1860-2007

A Brief History of the T Third Part 1: 1860-2007 By Jeremy Menzies Earlier this month, we launched free weekend shuttle service in the Central Subway . And come January 7th, our 4 new stations will connect directly to the rest of the T line from Sunnydale to Chinatown. Through this two-part blog series, we will look back at some of the history of the T from the 1860s to today! In Part One, we’ll look over the first 150 years from the 1860s to the 2000s. Next month in Part Two, we will take a closer look at the history of the T and Central Subway projects leading up to today’s service. The Horsecar Era: 1860s-1890s Starting in the 1860s, transit service along today’s T Line was provided by horsecars. These were small rail cars (that looked much like a cable car) that were pulled along tracks by horses. Two companies, the Omnibus Railroad and the North Beach & Mission Railway, operated horsecar lines on parts of the path of today’s T. These lines were mainly meant to ...

New top story from Time: Tropical Storm Zeta Expected to Hit U.S. Gulf Coast by Midweek

https://ift.tt/2J1aWNX (MIAMI) — A strengthening Tropical Storm Zeta is expected to become a hurricane Monday as it heads toward the eastern end of Mexico’s resort-dotted Yucatan Peninsula and then likely move on for a possible landfall on the central U.S. Gulf Coast at midweek. Zeta, which on Sunday became the earliest ever 27th named storm of the Atlantic season, was centered about 260 miles (420 kilometers) southeast of Cozumel island late Sunday, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said. It had maximum sustained winds of 60 mph (95 kph). Though nearly stationary, the storm was expected to begin advancing on a path that would take it over the Yucatan Peninsula late Monday. It would then head into the Gulf of Mexico and approach the U.S. Gulf Coast by Wednesday, though it could weaken by then, the hurricane center said. Officials in Quintana Roo state, the location of Cancun and other resorts, said they were watching the storm. They reported nearly 60,000 tourists in th...

New top story from Time: Immigration, Guns and the Filibuster: Joe Biden Confronts Challenges in First Press Conference

https://ift.tt/2PrZX3B Joe Biden held his first formal news conference as president 65 days into this presidency, after making a series of consequential moves in the early weeks of his Administration to help curb the COVID-19 pandemic and ease the economic pain in the country. But he didn’t get asked any questions about the coronavirus. Instead, reporters pressed Biden on things his Administration hasn’t done— like taking a position against the Senate filibuster rule, implementing executive action on gun control in the wake of two mass shootings, and stopping the flow of unaccompanied children coming to the U.S. southern border. The focus on Biden’s problems rather than his victories was a reminder that, in the highest office in the land, reality intrudes on even the best laid plans. The Biden Administration has so far been a model of coordinated message discipline. But once Biden formally faced reporters, he was forced to answer questions with responses that stretched ...

Gene Henderson: Honoring Muni’s First Black Division Manager

Gene Henderson: Honoring Muni’s First Black Division Manager By Jeremy Menzies In recognition of Black History Month, we bring you the story of Gene Henderson, the first Black man to become the head of a Muni bus division, Muni’s Kirkland Division. Henderson’s Background Gene Henderson was born in Houston, Texas, in 1916. He married his wife Naomi in 1939 and then served in the U.S. Army during World War II.

Early Career On February 1, 1946, Henderson was hired as a streetcar motorman out of Sutro Division, which was located on the corner of 32nd Ave. and Clement St. He was hired just five years after Muni’s first Black transit operator, Audley Cole, had successfully fought to integrate the carmen’s union in 1941.
