On Jan. 3, 2012, the SFMTA Board approved the Fiscal Year (FY) 2013 - FY 2018 SFMTA Strategic Plan that represents the vision, mission, goals and objectives for the Agency.
The Strategic Plan is our commitment to set the wheels in motion for a more connected, sustainable and vibrant San Francisco by building upon the City’s Transit First policy. The most noticeable improvements from this plan will include a faster and more reliable transit system, better bicycle and walking conditions for all age groups, easier access to taxis, more vehicle and ridesharing options, smarter parking solutions and more convenient payment and information options. Moreover, the SFMTA is committed to delivering these services with a customer-focused team, building lasting relationships among all team members and with our partners. Our focus is going to be on achieving these goals in a safe, efficient and timely manner and utilizing our current resources to eliminate our structural deficit while searching for new opportunities to meet the growing needs of our residents and businesses.
Between now and July 1, 2012, the SFMTA will develop a two-year action plan to start the implementation of the Strategic Plan in the next two-year budget cycle. This will include participation by all of the different teams within the Agency to develop a series of key actions that will be led by key teams to ensure successful implementation. These actions will also be incorporated into each team and each team member’s work plans. In this way, from July 1, 2012, every SFMTA team member will have a clear work plan to achieve our strategic goals every day.
