As part of the Geary Rapid Project, work to replace aging water lines, in coordination with San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, continues. Surface transportation improvements, including upgraded traffic signals and streetlights, sidewalk extensions at bus stops and intersection corners, improved median refuges and roadway repaving, are also underway and are being managed by San Francisco Public Works. 

Geary Rapid Project construction is currently scheduled to continue during the shelter in place order, with crews observing social distancing requirements and a safe working environment. The following two-week construction forecast is subject to change due to weather delays or unexpected field conditions.

Mondays through Fridays between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m.: 

  • Minor traffic signal and streetlight work is planned for the weeks of March 29 and April 5 at the intersection of Gough Street. The recently installed traffic signal system is planned to be activated on Tuesday, March 30. Please stay alert and plan for extra travel time through this intersection while the signals are dark and traffic control is provided. 

  • Curb ramp and sidewalk extension work is planned for the weeks of March 29 and April 5 on Geary Boulevard at the intersections of Laguna Street and Gough Street.
