So, Wheelchair Accessible stops on the route as there were before to make it more accessible for people using ago a wheelchair. As well as Parking Management improvement throughout the corridor to help customers find parking on a growing commercial street. We wanted to get the safety improvements on the ground as quickly as possible so many riders dont get hit.

Were really excited about this really a once in a Generation Opportunity to make taraval street safer for people walk and more attractive for people taking transit as well.
