New Dashboards Give a Window into Muni Service Changes

New Dashboards Give a Window into Muni Service Changes
By Kate McCarthy

An inspector manages Muni service. New dashboards that help inform changes to Muni service are now live at SFMTA.com/MuniData

Many factors inform our decisions about Muni service adjustments. These include making sure changes to service support the SFMTA’s values, which are economic vitality, environmental stewardship, trust and equity. We also evaluate travel patterns. You can now explore these patterns using the new Muni data dashboards (SFMTA.com/MuniData).

When looking at possible Muni service changes, the first thing we do is turn to the Muni Service Equity Strategy for guidance. Using the Muni Service Equity Strategy, we prioritize providing Muni service along routes that more often serve people of color, members of low-income households, and/or those who are dependent upon transit service, including people with disabilities and seniors.

We also use ridership data to analyze where riders are boarding and where and when there is crowding. This is how we determine if there are opportunities to better align ridership with how often the buses and trains run on specific Muni routes. The Muni data dashboards described below demonstrate some of the different ways ridership data can be sliced for these analyses.

Systemwide Muni Ridership Recovery - To see how current Muni ridership compares to pre-pandemic ridership, you can view our dashboard that shows Muni system ridership recovery percentage by month from April 2020 to now.
Muni Ridership Recovery by Route - We also have a view that shows Muni route ridership recovery percentage by month.
Average Daily Boardings by Route - This dashboard shows average daily boardings by Muni route and month (pre-pandemic to present). It helps transit planners see where riders are boarding Muni and shifts in ridership patterns. The percentages compare ridership in a given month to the same month in 2019. For example, on the 22 Fillmore, ridership increased to 117% of pre-pandemic levels on weekdays and 147% on weekends after we installed transit lanes, increased frequency and rerouted the line to bring people to their jobs and medical appointments in Mission Bay.
Percent of Daily Trip Crowding by Route - The Crowding dashboard shows each Muni line and the percentage of its trips that are crowded in a month. SFMTA transit planners look at which Muni lines are crowded so that they can determine whether more service is needed to address it.
Scheduled Service and Ridership Recovery by Route - This dashboard compares how much a route’s pre-pandemic ridership has recovered to how much service is scheduled on each route to meet ridership demand. This comparison can help identify how demand for different routes has changed since the pandemic. (NOTE: “Scheduled service” is not the same as service that was actually delivered. Because of operator shortages, we weren’t able to deliver all the service that was on the schedule pre-pandemic. This is an area we’ve dramatically improved on in recent years so that we are now delivering service that people can count on.)

Using the data described above – while being guided by the SFMTA’s values and the Muni Service Equity Strategy – allows us to make informed decisions about adjusting Muni service to best meet San Francisco’s needs. Now with our new Muni Data dashboards, you can see the numbers that help make these decisions.

New top story from Time: The Best Songs of 2021 So Far

https://ift.tt/2SuvanY The best songs of the year so far have come from newcomers and veterans alike. They originate from all around the globe: South Africa , Puerto Rico , Los Angeles. One is designed to be as short as possible; another stretches on for nearly eight minutes. From Arooj Aftab’s blissful and enveloping “Mohabbat” to a song that could serve as Lana Del Rey’s mission statement, here are the tracks we will have on repeat for months to come. “Up,” Cardi B There’s nothing much on “Up” that we haven’t heard from Cardi B before, and that absolutely doesn’t matter. The no. 1 single—Cardi’s fifth such chart-topper—plays to all of her strengths: tongue-twisting alliteration; a terse beat that will wreck your subwoofer; brazenly lewd imagery destined to soundtrack countless TikTok videos of fuming moms. (The song has been deployed in over 3 million TikTok videos already—and also gave rise to one of the most delightful meme challenges this year.) “Big bag bussin’ o...

New top story from Time: ‘Some Seeds Are Being Planted.’ How Yasuke Paves a New Path for Black Creators in Anime

https://ift.tt/2PCZdsF It was around 13 years ago when LeSean Thomas first learned of Yasuke. At that time, Thomas came across the 1968 Japanese children’s book Kuro-suke by Kurusu Yoshio and saw illustrations of the real-life African warrior who arrived in 16th century Japan and served under Oda Nobunaga—a greatly influential feudal lord who is widely regarded as the first unifier of the country. “It kind of felt like a secret treasure,” Thomas said. He found it particularly fascinating that the story of Yasuke, largely considered to be the first foreign-born samurai, was told in a Japanese work. “I just thought it was really cool that there was someone in Japan who was validating this because a s a concept in the West at that time, it was kind of viewed as a self-insert culturally to put a Black man with someone who was one of the unifiers of Japan,” Thomas told TIME in a recent Zoom interview. “Even at the time I didn’t believe it.” That disbelief has since faded, a...
