UpdatesMasonic Improvements Approved at SFMTA Board of Director’s Meeting, Sept. 18, 2012 Engineering hearing on proposed changes, May 13, 2011 Masonic Street Redesign Study final report (PDF) The survey results from the third community meeting, held on September 30, 2010, at San Francisco Day School (PDF), are available. About the ProjectThe primary goal of the Masonic Avenue Street Design Study is to identify how Masonic Avenue between Geary Boulevard and Fell Street can safely and efficiently accommodate the needs of all roadway users, including but not limited to pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists and Muni. The project is funded by the San Francisco County Transportation Authority through the Prop K half-cent local transportation sales tax program. The Masonic Avenue Streetscape plan was developed through a community-driven process initiated in 2008. It began with a petition for traffic calming along Masonic Avenue that contained over 500 signatures submitted by the group “Fix Masonic,” and a Board of Supervisors resolution, unanimously approved, directing the SFMTA and partner agencies to create a “true complete street” project to improve safety for pedestrians, people on bikes, and drivers who share the road.

Engage representatives of all constituencies within the community who would be impacted by changes to Masonic Avenue including, but not limited to, residents on Masonic Avenue, residents on side-streets, merchants, school representatives, bicyclists, Muni customers and pedestrians. 2. Improve transit operation. 3. Improve pedestrian and non-motorized access to transit. 4. Increase the safety of pedestrian crossings. 5. Increase motorist compliance with traffic rules and regulations. 6. Reduce the number of vehicular collisions, especially those involving pedestrians and bicyclists. 7. Support neighborhood vitality by creating a more inviting and accommodating public realm.
