About the Project

Top

The Mission Streetscape Plan will articulate a comprehensive strategy to improve neighborhood streets, based on community needs and priorities. The outcome will be designs for a system of neighborhood streets stressing

  • gracious, accessible, safe sidewalks;
  • well-marked crosswalks with shorter crossing distances;
  • close and friendly integration of transit;
  • bicycle connectivity and amenities;
  • increased usable public space;
  • closely planted street trees and pedestrian-scaled lighting;
  • accommodation of automobile traffic at appropriate speeds.

The boundaries of the study area for the Mission Streetscape Plan are roughly Division Street on the north, US-101 on the east, Precita Avenue, Mission Street and San Jose Avenue on the south, and Dolores Street on the west.

PARK)ing Day
The Planning Department hosted a (PARK)ing Day space on 16th Street between Valencia and Guerrero on Friday, September 19, with the theme "(PARK)ing Day Everyday."
