"Mayor Daniel Lurie and officials cut the ribbon on the Terry Francois Boulevard Bike and Pedestrian Safety Project on Thursday, concluding work that started in 2019 to provide a safe route along the waterfront through Mission Bay. The newly paved segment that opened last week is part of a mile-long protected bike lane that runs from China Basin Park to Crane Cove Park and Mariposa Street."
"Key improvements completed in the project include: New asphalt paving throughout the corridor Clearly defined roadway striping and signage for pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers Concrete barriers separating bike lanes from vehicle traffic to prevent encroachment Accessibility upgrades to support people with disabilities Narrowed driveway crossings to reduce conflicts between vehicles and active transportation users A newly painted plaza space fronting ATWater Tavern"

"That said, some of the route still depends on plastic, including a wide plastic speed bump to (one hopes) force turning motorists to reduce their speed as they enter the Port of San Francisco. While these improvements are, of course, welcome, if Streetsblog were to nitpick, these plastic humps could be more severe to really force drivers to slow substantially."
Mayor Daniel Lurie and city officials cut the ribbon on the Terry Francois Boulevard Bike and Pedestrian Safety Project, finishing work that began in 2019. The project provides a safer route along the waterfront through Mission Bay. A newly paved segment opened last week as part of a mile-long protected bike lane running from China Basin Park to Crane Cove Park and Mariposa Street. Key improvements include new asphalt paving, clearer striping and signage for pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers, and concrete barriers separating bike lanes from vehicle traffic. Accessibility upgrades support people with disabilities, driveway crossings were narrowed to reduce conflicts, and a newly painted plaza space fronts ATWater Tavern. Earlier quick-build phases left a gap near Pier 50, which has been improved with new pavement and concrete blocks.
