The document summarizes the analysis of circulation and operations for proposed transportation corridor projects in the Eastern Neighborhoods of San Francisco. It assessed potential impacts on traffic, the transportation network, transit delay, and signal timing. The analysis evaluated different design alternatives for Folsom Street, Howard Street, 7th Street, and 8th Street that vary the number of vehicle lanes, inclusion of transit and bicycle facilities, and direction of traffic flow. The preferred alternatives balance moving people by all modes efficiently while minimizing negative impacts to traffic flow and livability in the neighborhoods.
This document provides recommendations for prioritizing transportation corridor improvement projects in San Francisco's Eastern Neighborhoods based on an analysis of growth and transportation needs. Key steps included: 1) Dividing corridors into segments; 2) Assessing growth areas; 3) Scoring segments on bicycle, pedestrian, and transit needs; 4) Identifying outliers. Recommended priority corridors for near-term projects include segments of Folsom St, 3rd/4th Sts, and 5th/6th Sts due to high growth, multimodal needs, and safety issues. Other corridors may be addressed through other planning processes.
This document proposes a plan to increase donations to Sanjiwani by creating a blog about Nepal trekking and marketing it online. The plan is to make minor updates to Sanjiwani's existing website, launch a blog about trekking in Nepal with regular content, and use paid advertising and article marketing to drive visitors to the blog. The goal is to get people interested in trekking to sign up for an email series in exchange for asking them to donate. An initial budget of $800 is proposed to set up and test the marketing. If successful, the plan could be expanded to generate more ongoing fundraising through continued marketing spending.

This memorandum provides descriptions and analysis of concept alternatives developed for transportation projects on Folsom and Howard Streets and Seventh and Eighth Streets in San Francisco's South of Market neighborhood. Ten alternatives were initially considered. For Folsom and Howard, alternatives 1, 6, and 9 were recommended for further consideration. Alternative 1 would convert the streets to a two-lane, one-way configuration with cycletracks. Alternative 6 would implement a hybrid one-way/two-way configuration. Alternative 9 would convert the streets to a two-lane, two-way configuration with buffered bike lanes. The alternatives aim to improve safety and comfort for pedestrians and cyclists while maintaining adequate vehicle capacity and access for businesses.
At the Feb. 2, 2011 Community Meeting, the EN TRIPS consultant team identified preliminary priority corridors, and asked the community for their feedback.
