Page Slow Street
Page Slow Street extends from Stanyan Street to the west (at the edge of Golden Gate Park) eastward to the Gough and Market street intersections. Page Street is an important corridor for the Haight-Ashbury, Lower Haight, Hayes Valley, and surrounding neighborhoods and is one of the City's most popular slow streets for walking and biking. Page Street is also designated as a Green Connection in San Francisco's General Plan due to its charming character and connectivity to numerous schools, parks, and neighborhood spaces.
Upcoming changes
In spring 2024, the SFMTA paint shop will be adding and repainting red curbs (installing 'daylighting') at various Page Street intersections to promote visibility. Additional school crosswalk striping and load zone adjustments are also in the works near John Muir Elementary School.
Future improvements
With funding from the San Francisco County Transportation Authority (SFCTA), the SFMTA's Page Slow Street Project is evaluating current conditions and preparing concept designs for potential new traffic and streetscape upgrades along the corridor. The project team will share and solicit public feedback on its draft evaluation and concept design proposals later this spring or in early summer 2024. More details will be coming soon...
Background
Page Street was included in the COVID-19 Emergency Slow Streets Program and officially added to the Slow Streets Program on January 27th, 2023. Since 2020, the SFMTA has implemented several improvements along the corridor including limitations on through-traffic, slow street signage, and new pedestrian safety measures. The latest round of improvements completed in 2023 included sidewalk extensions, rain gardens, decorative paving, and new traffic diverters at the Stanyan, Masonic, and Divisadero intersections (adding to existing turn requirements at Webster, Laguna and Octavia streets).
