Project Impetus

Project Area Region expected to grow by 2 million people and 1 million jobs by 2040 San Francisco expected to grow by 200,000 people and 190,000 jobs SoMa is transit-rich SoMa has development potential

Existing sidewalks

Challenges

How to maintain what’s working Poor pedestrian conditions

SLIDE 4

C E N T R A L S O M A

Proposal

Maintain much of the zoning Replace industrial zoning Support SoMa-style buildings Focus height Areas of Increased Intensity

Growth Potential

Assumes 75% of full buildout through 2040

Existing network is not sufficient today and therefore not sufficient for proposed land use New network concepts reallocate right-of-way to support a shift toward more sustainable trip generation

Integrating Land Use and the Transportation Network

Transportation Network Principles

1. Create a safe, convenient, attractive environment for pedestrians
2. Design transit routes to serve the area and improve performance
3. Improve bicycling conditions
4. Employ Transportation Demand Management Measures
5. Restrict curb cuts
6. Where and when necessary, accommodate regional and through

traffic
