SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) — Truth be known. The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency has a perception problem. You know, they’re the ones that run Muni buses and trains, enforce parking regulations, and promote the use of bicycles.
At a recent SFMTA Board meeting, one could hear a few people say, “I don’t trust SFMTA,” or “I smell a rat.”
Despite this skepticism, the board of directors unanimously adopted the city’s Biking and Rolling Plan.
Beginning now and for the next 20 years, San Francisco will start linking hundreds of bike lanes to form a continuous route throughout the city. Think of it as one big bicycle network.
“I truly believe that if they build it they will come, as we’ve seen in other great cities around the world,” said one supporter of the plan.
