The Brotherhood-Alemany Quick-Build Project will make the complicated Brotherhood Way / Alemany Boulevard / Sagamore Street / Orizaba Avenue / Bright Street intersection more safe and easy to navigate for people walking, driving, taking transit and riding bikes.
The project will improve safety using proven methods that will:
- Make drivers more likely to stop for pedestrians at crosswalks;
- Lower vehicle speeding;
- Reduce conflicts between turning and merging cars;
- Make it easier for people to access their homes, churches, bus stops, and parks;
- Improve connections for people riding bikes.
The project will involve reaching out directly to neighborhood groups and residents, and it will work closely with the SFCTA's Brotherhood Way Safety and Circulation Plan study.

Project Background
The “Brotherhood-Alemany” intersection includes Brotherhood Way, Alemany Boulevard, Sagamore Street, Orizaba Avenue, and Bright Street, and it's a complicated spot in the southern part of San Francisco. The traffic from different directions is a mix of uncontrolled intersections, stop, yield, and signal-controlled traffic. Most pedestrian crossings don’t have signals, and crossing the main part of the intersection means crossing four lanes of cars. Some bike paths exist on nearby roads, but they don’t connect through the intersection. The 54-Felton bus route also passes through this area.
In 2023 and 2024, the SFMTA staff created some ideas for improving safety and traffic flow at the Brotherhood/Alemany intersection through the Brotherhood/Alemany Safety Improvement Project. During community discussions, community members strongly expressed the need for better safety measures, especially for pedestrians crossing the intersection. Because of this feedback, the Brotherhood/Alemany Quick-Build Project was started to make important changes quickly while planning for more long-term improvements.
