Alemany Safety Project

The Alemany Safety Project built on prior work by the SFMTA and San Francisco Planning Department to explore ways to make Alemany Boulevard, segments of which are on San Francisco’s High-Injury Network, safer for all road users. The study was adopted by the Transportation Authority Board in September 2020 and recommended near, mid, and long-term improvements such as the following: Near-term improvements at various locations along the corridor: Advanced limit lines Daylighting Pedestrian head start signal timing Two-stage turn boxes for bikes Continental crosswalks Pavement markings and signage at various intersections along Alemany Upgrade existing bike lanes to buffered bike lanes along the length of the corridor Mid-term improvements: Upgrade signal lenses to a larger size at various intersections along Alemany Install pedestrian countdown signals and accessibility improvements at various intersections along Alemany Add speed radar signage in both directions on the segment of Alemany between Santa Rosa Avenue and Cotter Street and Corridor-wide signal re-timing Long-term improvements: Design of new traffic signals at the intersections of Alemany Boulevard and Rousseau, Theresa, and Lawrence streets Signal upgrades, evaluation of left-turn treatments, and pedestrian crossing improvements at other intersections
