Hoboken, NJ hasn’t had a traffic death in EIGHT YEARS. Hoboken’s Mayor Ravi Bhalla has implemented #VisionZero in a comprehensive, layered way – and it’s working. We learned more about Hoboken’s playbook SPUR tonight. While SF is a lot bigger, Hoboken is more than twice as dense!

We are deeply dismayed that left turn restrictions on Valencia Street are on the chopping block. This would be a huge step backwards for safety. Drivers making left turns are one of the deadliest threats to pedestrians in SF – and this is all too true on Valencia.

We’re headed to City Hall today to speak on behalf of pedestrians at the SFMTA Board meeting. What’s on our list: 1. Support a strong Biking & Rolling Plan. This will make streets safer for EVERYONE. When more people can get around without a car, that means ⬇️traffic – and ⬇️traffic crashes. 🧵

We 💜 to see it all along Folsom: New traffic lights that give pedestrians a head-start to cross (reduces ped-vehicle crashes by 60%!) & a countdown so people know if there's enough time to cross.🚦 Thank you, @sfmta.com! These are the solutions that help keep people safe when crossing. 🚸

It is incredibly exciting to see lifesaving speed cameras begin to be installed in San Francisco. It has been a long journey to this moment! The voices of traffic victims & their loved ones have been instrumental in our 6 years of work to pass state legislation allowing speed cameras in SF.

"Daylighting saves lives, it’s that simple," says Walk SF executive director Jodie Medeiros. The new commitment by the SFMTA to paint all intersections for daylighting in 18 months is exactly what’s needed right now given the fact that 2024 was the deadliest year in a decade for traffic crashes.
