The SFMTA’s new ‘Slow Streets’ program is designed to limit through traffic on certain residential streets and allow them to be used more as a shared space for foot and bicycle traffic.  Throughout the city, dozens of corridors have been planned or implemented as a ‘Slow Streets’.

Obviously, due to COVID and the current terrible, smoky air in California, you definitely need to wear a mask while enjoying these walking areas.  But you will notice a lot more outdoor seating areas and parklets on these streets!

Also due to the current unhealthy air, slow streets in the SOMA have been delayed.  For more on all current and new project visit: https://www.sfmta.com/projects/slow-streets-program
