We live in Potrero Hill. I use my bike for everything. To community events, restaurants, bars, cafes, and grocery stores. Also for recreation.
17th is our main corridor to get to the Embarcadero and Bay Area Bike Trail.
I would like to see a completely connected, protected bike lane network. For safety and comfort. 17th is the main East-West stretch.
I know a lot of people who would like to bike more in San Francisco but they don’t feel safe or comfortable enough. If we’re really going to make a transformation, we need to make it safe and comfortable for everybody.
Right now there’s a problem with double parking, and speeding. There’s a lot of cars, the car traffic on 17th is getting crazy.
More signage to direct cyclists would help a lot too.
