Decision: Approved by City Traffic Engineer for implementation.
Public Comments: No comments received.
The three speed cushions on Kansas Street are a traffic calming measure
proposed based on speed surveys and resident complaints. The extended
angled parking is necessary to provide enough width for the cushion on
that block. Residents of all three blocks voted on the entire proposal,
which passed. The median island at the intersection of Kansas Street &
26th Street is being removed as it predates stop signs at the intersection,
so no longer provides a safety benefit. Currently, it is an on-going maintenance
issue and is directly in the accessible path of travel for pedestrians.

Whether or not the City Traffic Engineer’s decision is considered a Final SFMTA
Decision is determined by Division II, Section 203 of the Transportation Code.
If the City Traffic Engineer approves a parking or traffic modification, it is
considered a Final SFMTA Decision. If a City Traffic Engineer disapproves or
declines a parking or traffic modification, a member of the public must request
additional review by the SFMTA of that decision which shall be conducted pursuant
to Division II, Section 203 of the Transportation Code before the decision becomes
a Final SFMTA Decision. Final SFMTA Decisions, whether made by the City Traffic Engineer
or the SFMTA Board, can be reviewed by the Board of Supervisors pursuant to Ordinance 127-18.
Decisions reviewable by the Board of Supervisors are denoted with a pound (#). Information
about the review process can be found at:
https://sfbos.org/sites/default/files/SFMTA_Action_Review_Info_Sheet.pdf.
* Items denoted with an asterisk (*) can be approved by the City Traffic Engineer after
the public hearing per Section 201 of the San Francisco Transportation Code.
For questions about any of these items, please contact: sustainable.streets@sfmta.com
