Year-End Highlights from the SFMTA Photo Archive
By Jeremy Menzies
As we approach the close of 2019, here's a short "year in review" of our favorite history blog posts of the year. So climb aboard and have your ticket to the past ready, 'cause this trip back in time is about to depart!
First on this year's list is our celebration of the 80th anniversary of the 1939 Golden Gate International Exhibition on Treasure Island. We unveiled dozens of beautiful large-format photos of the GGIE in our February post.
A view of Treasure Island and the Golden Gate International Exposition from Yerba Buena Island circa 1939. The "Tower of the Sun" and other fairground buildings were transformed at night into canvases for intensely colorful light displays.
Following the GGIE up in March was our post on historic Muni women in celebration of Women's History Month.
Muni's first female inspector, Evelyn Wells, monitors a bus line in this 1979 shot.
April brought a big anniversary with the 100th birthday of the L Taraval Line, which opened on April 12, 1919.
An L Taraval streetcar ("magic carpet" car 1005) passes by 24th Avenue in this 1940 shot.
August marked a slightly smaller milestone of the 35th year of Muni's articulated buses-- extra long buses put into service on our heaviest lines for extra capacity.
One of Muni's first articulated trolley coaches is in testing on the 24 Divisadero route in this 1994 shot.
In September we announced the return of Sacramento-Clay Cable Car 19 ("Big 19") to passenger service, ending the cars 75-year hiatus from the hills of San Francisco.
Cable Car 19, or "Big 19" to distinguish it from Powell Street car 19, heads down Washington Street on a test run in August 2019. Check out Archive photo U01684 for a 1908 view of the car at this same location.
And to wrap up October this year, we rolled out a spooky post on the long-buried history of San Francisco's funeral streetcar services.
United Railroads Co. Funeral Car 3 rolls into Olivet Memorial Park in this 1905 shot.
We hope you’ve enjoyed this look back at the history we revealed in 2019, more photos and more history is on its way in 2020 and always plenty to look at on the SFMTA Photo Archive and Instagram. As you celebrate the close of 2019 and the start of a new decade, don't forget that all Muni lines are FREE on the night of New Years Eve, from 8pm to 5am New Years Day.

Shopping Downtown This Holiday Season?
By Pamela Johnson
To improve your shopping experience and enhance safety, the Ellis-O’Farrell and Union Square garages have recently completed significant operational upgrades…just in time for the holiday rush!
These garages are two of the 22 City-owned parking facilities slated to receive the Parking Access Revenue Control Systems (PARCS) upgrades. This program is replacing 16-year old parking equipment with modern-day parking technology. The upgrades include new arms and barrier gates, with flashing lights and audible alarms, as vehicles exit the garage, and a license plate recognition system (LPR) that will resolve issues with lost tickets.
As a transit-first city, the SFMTA always encourages people to ride public transit, walk or bike to their destination. However, we know that sometimes this isn’t practical and that some people will choose to drive. To accommodate this, we would like to remind holiday shoppers about their parking options in the downtown area.
The Union Square Garage (which sits under Union Square Plaza), and Ellis O’Farrell Garage (located at 123 O’Farrell Street, between Powell and Stockton streets), are close to many of the San Francisco’s favorite holiday destinations and entertainment hotspots, including Westfield San Francisco Centre, the Apple Store; restaurants like the Cheesecake Factory and the Rotunda at Neiman Marcus; and entertainment hot spots such as the Holiday Ice Rink in Union Square and the Curran Theatre.
Parking in a city-owned garage may be the way to go. And parking rates City-owned garage is typically 50 to 60 percent less expensive than parking in privately-owned garages. The SFMTA’s dynamic pricing strategy encourages drivers to use garage spaces first and reserve on street parking for shorter stays. This is how we keep parking rates in city-owned garages more affordable.
Here is a complete list of city-owned garages and lots.
To learn more about PARCS visit the PARCS Project Webpage.
Happy Holidays from the SFMTA

Tips For Parking In San Francisco This Holiday Season
By Pamela Johnson
Whether you are a long-time resident or visitor coming to San Francisco for the holidays, we encourage you to take the train, bus, walk, ride a bike or take a taxi. If you need to drive, the SFMTA would like for you to have a great parking experience.
Here are tips for parking on the street at one of our meters or in one of our city-owned parking garages.
Parking on the Street
- Park Smart! If you love it, don’t leave it. To avoid having your vehicle broken into, keep all items/valuables out of plain view; better yet, take them with you upon exiting your vehicle.
- Visit the SFMTA webpage so you know the parking meter rates.
- Download the Pay-by-Phone App so you can pay for your parking online.
- You can extend your parking time at a parking meter with the Pay-by-Phone App so you don’t have to return to the meter to pay. You can pay by credit card, with Google or Apple Pay.
- Do not park on the sidewalk—this blocks the path of people walking or using wheelchairs or strollers, and isn’t safe. Your vehicle may be ticketed and/or towed.
Parking Off-Street in Garages & Lots
- Reminder: Avoid having your vehicle broken into, keep all valuables out of sight or take them with you when you exit your vehicle.
- Park in one of our city-owned garages or lots. Ours are typically 50 to 60 percent less expensive than parking in a privately-owned garage or at a meter. Visit the SFMTA webpage so you know the rates.
- If you are concerned about your surroundings and would like an escort to your car, please feel free to use the Ambassador Service in our city-owned garages.
- Take notice of your surroundings. If you see something suspicious, please report it.
- Look both ways for pedestrians when driving into or out of a garage or lot.
More information about San Francisco parking rules can be found in the Drive & Park section of our webpage.
Happy holidays from the SFMTA.

Next Steps of the Scooter Program
By
At the SFMTA, we are excited to expand the range of sustainable transportation options in San Francisco, including scooters, which provide a convenient, on-demand travel option for shorter trips and an alternative to driving.
Based on their positive performance to date, we recently increased the number of scooters permitted through the Powered Scooter Share Permit Pilot Program. This timing presents an opportunity to again share how we can keep scooter riders and pedestrians safe when it comes to scootering around San Francisco.
Since we launched the scooter program, we have taken steps to ensure public safety for both riders and others on the street. One of the most common community concerns is related to scooters riding on the sidewalk, which is against the law in California.
To ensure that our sidewalks are safe for everyone, we have taken proactive steps to address this issue with the four permitted scooter companies currently operating in San Francisco. Examples include requiring scooter companies to provide clear education about sidewalk riding laws, user incentives and penalties, and other safeguards to encourage safe riding and parking.
Maintaining an accessible path of travel is critical for pedestrians and others who use the sidewalk, particularly seniors and people with disabilities. To support this, we require all permittees to have a “lock-to” mechanism on their scooters that allow it be locked to a bike rack. As part of the permit fee, each company pays $75 per scooter to support the installation of new racks and, in return, we have already doubled the pace of installation as compared to prior months. We have developed detailed parking requirements for sidewalk and rack parking that meet all of the city’s accessibility guidelines.
Every day, our SFMTA enforcement team is out on the streets monitoring for compliance. Since the launch of the scooter permits on October 15th, they have been regularly issuing citations to both permitted and non-permitted scooter companies for improperly parked scooters.
If you see individuals or parked vehicles that are not complying with these expectations, we request you file a complaint with the company directly. You can find their contact information our webpage under the “Report Improper Riding or Parking” section.
When making a report, please be sure to provide the following information:
- Date
- Time
- Location
- Photo (if possible)
We also receive complaints via 311 and on the SFMTA website: here.
The SFMTA evaluates all complaints gathered from the permittees directly as well as through 311, and other sources on a monthly basis to track each permittee’s complaints resolution process and ensure that we are consistently reinforcing our safety goals.
We are committed to delivering a safe, equitable, and reliable transportation system to everyone in San Francisco. We look forward to a continued safe expansion of our scooter program and ask for your help in doing so.

Heads Up: Fix On The Way For Two-Car Trains
By
We want to inform our riders about a recent issue that arose on one of our new LRV4 Siemens vehicles. While Muni LRVs remain safe to operate, out of an abundance of caution, we will be limiting the number of two-car trains in service for the near future. We’re taking this opportunity to explain some of the history and what our plans are to fix the problem.
Last April, our two-car trains started to experience complications with their couplers. Couplers are a train component that allow multiple vehicles to operate under the control of one operator. Upon inspection, we found broken shear pins that were a symptom of a design flaw within the coupler. To fix this, we replaced the old pins and the couplers began working properly.
Since the April 2019 coupler issue on our LRV4 trains, Siemens has continued its investigation into the cause of those failures. On Monday, we received word from Siemens about ongoing and unexplained fatiguing, (meaning some pins are wearing out sooner than they should) and they proposed additional testing to identify the source of the fatigue.
Yesterday, we experienced a coupler failure, the first since April.
What Happened?
Wednesday morning, the coupler shear pins failed on one of our LRV4 trains while in revenue service. The cars did not separate. The operator reported the issue to her supervisor, the passengers disembarked and the train was taken out of service.
Why Did It Happen?
There does not appear to be a single event (collision, etc.) that caused the failure, but our investigation is ongoing.
How Are We Responding to This?
In the short term, the plan is to replace the coupler shear pins on all LRV4 trains. The medium-term plan is to redesign the shear pin and look for a permanent solution. Siemens has agreed to provide an ongoing supply of shear pins while they work on the redesign and is activating their global resources to make this happen.
What Does This Mean for Service?
On a typical weekday, we have been running approximately 20 two-car trains in the system. Beginning yesterday, the operation of two-car trains was limited until new shear pins could be installed today. Tomorrow, we will operate three or more two-car trains. These are trains that have received the new shear pins. We are expecting a shipment of shear pins today (four per train) and expect to be able to run as many as seven two-car trains by Monday.
Who Will Pay for This?
These repairs are covered under warranty by Siemens and will be replaced at no cost to San Francisco taxpayers.
Is It Safe?
Yes, safety is our number one priority. Siemens has confirmed that with newly installed pins the couplers can safely operate and the new pins can be safely used for up to 120 days.

Take Our New Shared Rides Survey
By Bradley Dunn
During World War II and the Oil Crisis of the 1970s, carpooling or sharing rides was a strategy for maximizing a scarce resource, gas. While our vehicles have become more fuel-efficient including the introduction of hybrid and electric cars, Today, the scarce resource is street space. Shared rides are one way the SFMTA is working to make our system function more efficiently.
We want to hear from you in a new survey about carpooling and shared rides in the city.
As San Francisco continues to grow, moving more people in fewer vehicles will maximize the efficiency and sustainability of our transportation system. While the percentage of people traveling by private automobile in San Francisco has declined in recent years, about two-thirds of these private automobile trips are carrying only one person.
Furthermore, between 2010 and 2016, the total Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) in the city has increased by 13 percent, according to an analysis by the San Francisco County Transportation Authority. Together, these are some of the reasons we are seeing increased traffic congestion. With San Francisco likely to continue being a desirable place to live and with a strong economy creating more jobs in the city, it is likely that this pattern will continue in future years, further increasing congestion.
Shared rides have the potential to be part of the solution. The benefit of carpooling lies in tapping into an abundant, yet underutilized, resource: empty seats in cars. New technologies, such as real-time ride-matching, have created opportunities to make sharing rides easier. Changing attitudes toward car ownership, the growth of the sharing economy, and an increasing number of lanes that give priority to high-occupancy vehicles, make ride-sharing more attractive than ever. If these factors increase the number of shared rides, it will remove vehicles from congested roadways, reduce trip times, improve transit reliability, decrease household transportation costs, and increase mobility and access to jobs.
Whether you ride or drive, the survey is intended to help the SFMTA better understand perceptions of carpooling and sharing rides in San Francisco. The survey will seek to understand residents’ priorities and the barriers they face when considering using shared-ride options. The insights gained from this survey will inform future transportation planning decisions to encourage shared rides, which may include restriping existing traffic lanes to high occupancy vehicle carpool lanes and designating convenient drop-off curb locations for carpools and app-based shared rides.

Octavia ‘Open Street’ Project in Hayes Valley
By
Yesterday, the SFMTA working with Mayor London Breed and Supervisor Brown announced the completion of the Octavia ‘Open Street’ Project in Hayes Valley. The Open Street Project was designed to reopen a portion of Octavia Street as public space to be enjoyed by the neighborhood and community.
The project is part of the Octavia Boulevard Enhancement Program, which seeks to make the boulevard and surrounding streets safer, more pedestrian and bicycle-friendly, and supportive of the needs of the Hayes Valley community. The ‘Open Street’ Project provides an extension of public space at Patricia’s Green by closing off the block of Octavia between Hayes and Linden to vehicle traffic.
In addition to the ‘Open Street’ portion, the project includes safety improvements such as shorter pedestrian crossings and improved intersection visibility. The redesigned street will also allow bicycles to make a safe, protected connection from South of Market through Hayes Valley. This project mirrors other efforts around the City to reprioritize how streets are used. For example, the first phase of the Better Market Street project will be implemented in January, prioritizing transit, biking, and walking by removing private vehicles from a large segment of the street.
Over a four-year period (2015-2018), we observed traffic patterns, worked through operational issues, and engaged the public during community events where Octavia Street was temporarily closed to traffic (e.g., SFJAZZ Festival Block Party, Hayes Valley Neighborhood Association Design Week, PROXY events). The community excitedly took to the expanded public space, with the area naturally activating itself. It provided a safe connection between Patricia’s Green and the PROXY space (which is slated to become affordable housing in the coming years).
Traffic patterns at the Hayes/Octavia intersection, which is on the Vision Zero High Injury Network, were greatly simplified with the connection to Octavia Boulevard and the Central Freeway removed. People walking, bicycling, and Muni vehicles all moved through the area more safely and efficiently.
We also tested a ‘first of its kind’ collapsible bollard, intended to secure the area while providing for immediate emergency access when needed. We look forward to expanding the use of these devices to other areas in the City. Let us know what you think of the new space in the comment section below.
