Get Your Transportation Needs Met in the Bayview

Starting this summer, Bayview-Hunters Point residents can get their transportation service needs met without having to leave the neighborhood! The Transportation Resource Center (TRC) at 5009 3rd Street is now open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, and offers access to Muni resources.

Run by the SFMTA and Community Youth Center of San Francisco, the TRC is part of the larger SFMTA Bayview Community Shuttle Program.

There are many programs that make transportation more affordable and accessible for youth, seniors, low-income residents and residents with a disability – but learning about these programs or registering for them can be a challenge. The TRC makes information and services for transportation easily available for residents in Bayview-Hunters Point, with staff on site to help navigate forms and requirements. At the Center people can:

Sign up for a Clipper Card or get a discounted Clipper Card for residents with low incomes or residents with a disability.
Sign up for a Muni Transit Pass – including Free Muni for people with a disability, the Lifeline Transit Pass for low-income residents, the Youth Transit Pass, the Senior Transit Pass or the Access Pass for people experiencing homelessness.
Access Paratransit services, including the Essential Trip Card, the Shop-a-Round shuttle, Van Gogh shuttle and wheelchair taxi access.
Get Muni Travel Training – learn how to use the Muni transit system and the MuniMobile app to reach key destinations.
Learn how to access Scootershare and Bikeshare services, including the Bike Share for All program for low-income residents.

We’re also partnering with the HOPE SF Youth Leadership Program (led by Bay Area Community Resources) to share information about the TRC with residents at HOPE SF housing sites across Bayview-Hunters Point. These youth champions will help expand mobility to those who find it hardest to access transportation.

Mobile Sales Van Partnership

We’re also bringing the SFMTA Mobile Sales Van to the TRC for pop-ups on July 11 and July 18 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Residents can buy Clipper cards, buy or renew transit passes and pay parking citations at the Mobile Van. The SFMTA Mobile Van also stops at Mendell Plaza in Bayview-Hunters Point the first and last Friday of every month from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

You can get involved with the Bayview Community Shuttle in a number of ways:

New top story from Time: Actor Farhan Akhtar Pays Tribute to Legendary Sprinter Milkha Singh, India’s ‘Flying Sikh’

https://ift.tt/3gTcTuw I played Milkha Singh—the Indian sporting legend who died on June 18 of COVID-19 complications at age 91—in the 2013 biopic Bhaag Milkha Bhaag. ( The title translates to Run Milkha Run. ) Singh was a child of partition, and who came from poverty, but he had a lot of faith in himself and the belief that if you work hard, you will be remembered. That, to me, is his legacy. Back in my school days, I remember how my physical education teacher would often point to Singh as an example when we would slack off on our training. Many of us were told that growing up: if you want to be successful in sports, you have to train like this guy.

Singh had spent time serving in the army before his athletic career; I expected him to be concise and terse in his demeanor. But he quickly put me at ease. He arrived dressed in a tracksuit, and tol...
