Introduction
This project implemented a "road diet" on 14th Street between Castro Street and Sanchez Street to reduce the number of vehicle lanes that pedestrians must cross. Improvements include the elimination of an eastbound lane on 14th Street between Castro and Sanchez Streets, a new left-turn-only lane, and new red zones to daylight intersections. Benefits will include improved pedestrian visibility and safer turning movements. The proposal was developed in coordination with District 8 Supervisor and Transportation Authority Board Chair Rafael Mandelman's office, the Duboce Triangle Neighborhood Association, and other members of the local community.
