  • ISSUE BRIEF: Transportation
    Age & Disability Friendly SF Task Force Issue Brief: August 2017 ISSUE BRIEF: Transportation DOMAIN OVERVIEW: The Transportation domain covers the infrastructure, equipment, and services for all means of urban transportation, with a focus on transportation services and policies specifically related to people with disabilities and seniors. Transportation represents a broad range of mobility options, including public and private options, drivers, pedestrians, Paratransit ridership, and bicyclists - all of whom cross paths daily. Relevant programs and policies may include the Vision Zero pedestrian safety efforts, improving and expanding accessible modes of transportation, bike lane design, and bus shelters. SUMMARY: Ensuring that public transportation is available for all has been, and continues to be, a priority for San Francisco. The city’s transportation system has a direct impact on all other domain areas; an efficient, affordable, and accessible transportation supports the ability of seniors and adults with disabilities to travel to work, attend medical appointments, and participate more broadly in the community. San Francisco has many transportation benefits, including: consistently rated as one of the most walkable US cities; free Muni service for low and moderate-income seniors, people with disabilities and youth; and a transit stop at least every quarter mile in San Francisco. However, the city also faces challenges, such as the hilly geography that can be challenging for seniors and those with disabilities, the need for accessibility upgrades in older transit stations, and, with a highly utilized public transportation system, overcrowding and older vehicles that are not as reliable and may break down. ISSUE BRIEF SECTIONS: I. Age & Disability Friendly Goals.
