This project was made possible in part by the San Francisco County Transportation Authority through a grant of Proposition K Local Sales Tax Funds.

Project Update (as of January 7, 2013)

General

Thanks to all who have participated in the community process for this project.  The SFMTA Traffic Calming Program will now seek funds to implement the recommended changes. The final report for this project is available by clicking on Central Richmond Traffic Calming Project (pdf)

Please make note that some speed humps were removed from the plan originally presented to the community due to concerns raised by Muni and the San Francisco Fire Department.

  • 17th Avenue between Anza and Geary:  Speed humps were installed on 6/1/2012.
  • 14th Avenue and Lake Street: A painted traffic island was installed on Lake Street west of 14th Avenue.
