NEWS: Sources tell me that DOGE is setting its sights on the Department of Labor next. DOL workers have been ordered to give DOGE access to whatever they ask for—or risk termination.

“We’re supposed to stop everything we’re doing and do whatever the DOGE kids ask… It feels dirty and illegal.”

Here are the Muni service cut scenarios for this summer.

There is no right answer here. Any of the 3 would be disastrous and send Muni into a death spiral. The right answer is Mayor Lurie and the supervisors find the funds to stop these cuts. Join the fight at muniforever.org

As San Francisco officials prepare to install speed cameras at 33 streets or intersections in March, they have a message for drivers: Start adjusting your behavior.
S.F.’s speed cameras are coming soon, and the city wants drivers to adjust their behavior now

🚨What the … BART train screens just got a sick little update?!⬇️

The Passenger Information System on BART’s train cars is being updated to show major transit transfer connections at stations as part of a larger effort to make it easier for riders to navigate the Bay Area’s transit systems.

I introduced new legislation to expedite delivery of public transit, bike & pedestrian safety projects. It takes way too long to deliver these projects critical for our future.

SB 71 makes permanent a CEQA exemption I legislated in 2020 & expands it to include more types of transit infrastructure.🧵

After the implementation of congestion pricing in NYC, San Francisco likely now beats New York for worst downtown traffic in the US. Glad to see the Chron raise the obvious question: why not price congestion here too?

Congestion pricing has hit New York. Could it be coming to downtown S.F.?

Tip: if you almost hit me, my family or anyone with your car, do not give a cute little wave. This is violent behaviour that continually gets treated as a little “whoopsie” Pull over, stop your car and take some time to think about how you almost killed someone and their family.
