its more than just numbers
users make a point of
forcing u-turns on busy streets
running a red only to block the intersection in the other direction
stopping a full lane to pick up or drop or a fare, or even just check their phones
idling in the bus lane, ignore the honking bus, and forcing it* to take on and discharge passengers in the traffic lane
but in any case, it doesn't matter matter. for whatever reason SOMA is gridlocked throughout the day you can easily take an hour to traverse the last mile before the bay bridge. its just not working anymore. i think the ubers cause a lot of it..but someone has to do something
- convolvatron 10y agoi did talk with someone from sfmta a couple days ago. they some really marginal ideas planned. basically they want the city to extend the taxi/bus only lanes further and further out from market. they also plan on taking out the center median on van ness to make a new dedicated bus lane. as another poster commented some incremental investment in underground during the last 40 years would have made a big difference. after the disaster of extending the T into chinatown, not sure we can even meaningfully discuss that as a option
