Rail system restart Day 2. Important signs are delayed at printer due to supply chain problems. Still, marvel at @sfpublicworks paint job at Forest Hill
Arrival predictions are working a bit better at West Portal. Station agents are making announcements when trains aren't detected by our ancient system. That 40 minute gap isn't right – bei West Portal MUNI Metro Station
West Portal ambassadors speak Cantonese and Spanish. They're getting input from passengers about how to improve the transfer hub – bei West Portal MUNI Metro Station
Our IT and operations teams are working on this problem: info sign says see car for destination. Car says "our of service," standard protocol when operator keys off to go to other end of train.
Confirmed with comms that new wayfinding signs and pavement stickers are being produced for West Portal and Church
I love these pavement decals. We're ordering more and larger ones. Now, off to Chinatown to check on Waverley and Grant #SharedSpace and eat lunch – bei Church MUNI Metro Station
It's good to see so many people out enjoying (and spending money in) Grant Ave in Chinatown
Waverley St in Chinatown is a beautiful oasis – bei Mister Jiu's
Aside from Waverly Place Jong, what real or fictional people are named after streets or transit lines?
Ok two more Chinatown shots before crossing Broadway
North Beach being it's best socially distant self – bei The Saloon
Musicians inside diners out – bei Tupelo
Slow down: Adult children at play. #NorthBeach
North Beach still has SF's greatest concentration of #SharedSpaces
SF eliminated all its minimum parking requirements years ago. COVID has accelerated businesses finding better uses for their former lots
While waiting for the real signs to arrive our comms team has been MacGyvering short term fixes at Church transfer hub – bei Church MUNI Metro Station
It's Peak 2020 on 18th St in the Castro
SF's next great #SharedSpace is 18th from Collingwood to Hartford
