The Tenderloin, one of San Francisco’s most dangerous neighborhoods in terms of traffic deaths and injuries, is getting a series of safety improvements, including selective lane closures and “no turn on red” signs. It will also be the first neighborhood in San Francisco to have the speed limit lowered from 25 to 20 mph.
Supervisor Matt Haney, whose district encompasses the Tenderloin, pushed for the changes:
The Tenderloin will become first entire neighborhood in San Francisco with a 20mph speed limit.
We are also implementing "no turn on red" at 54 intersections.
Every street in TL is on the high injury network for collisions, which accounts for 75% of city collisions & fatalities
