What You Can Do
The Better Market Street Project will include a robust community involvement process. The enormous diversity of stakeholders along the Market Street corridor between Octavia Boulevard and The Embarcadero will be encouraged to participate and stay informed via community meetings, surveys, emails, newsletters, regular website updates and other social media venues.
What Can You Do?
Part of the community involvement process will include photo essays that highlight places from across the country and around the world that should inspire San Franciscans to imagine a better Market Street. At various points in the design process, the website will provide explorations of different alternatives to solve specific design and operations challenges on Market Street. Overall, the City hopes to use the website as a way to open our horizons to the very best street design ideas for enlivened public spaces, reliable and efficient public transit, and safe, comfortable and appealing bicycle access.
