  • Responses to Questions About the East Bay Bus Rapid Transit Project and Draft Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA)
    Item 12 - Attachment 6 Attachment B1-E Responses to Questions about the East Bay Bus Rapid Transit Project and Draft Locally Preferred Alternative (LPA) Following is a list of questions about the East Bay BRT Project and the City of Berkeley’s staff proposal for a draft LPA compiled from written comments received through November 9, 2009 and questions submitted by the Willard Neighborhood in September 2009. Questions and answers are arranged into the following subject areas: 1. Traffic Impacts 2. Parking Impacts 3. Pedestrian and Bicycle Impacts 4. Land Use, Economic and Business Impacts 5. Transit Ridership/Demand 6. Route and Stops 7. Project Costs 8. Local Bus Service 9. Transit Fare 10. Other Questions 1. Traffic Impacts 1.1 What are the potential traffic mitigations that could be implemented in the Willard neighborhood? [Response from AC Transit.] To ensure an effective BRT project, consideration of trade- offs related to the movement of persons in the corridor is required. Dedicated use of a travel lane for the BRT system will likely result in traffic diversion from Telegraph onto local streets. To understand the likelihood, magnitude and specific locations of this effect, neighborhood traffic analysis will be conducted as part of the FEIS/R. To address potential adverse effects to local streets, AC Transit is considering implementing a neighborhood traffic protection program. The neighborhood protection program would assist in paying for the installation of devices to reduce traffic volumes or reduce traffic speeds on local streets, should they be adversely affected by the BRT project. AC Transit and the cities will need to establish criteria for when a local street is considered adversely affected and action is warranted.

    Call us FREE 0808 102 5458 Toggle navigation THE HIDDEN GEMS OF SAN FRANCISCO Tips and Guides, San Francisco, 16/Jul/2018 From old ruins to beautiful gardens, from peculiar shops to quirky museums, San Francisco is replete with wonderful and unexpected locations to visit. San Francisco is a truly unique city and this is certainly reected in some of the lesser known attractions available. With all this in mind, we have put together this guide to introduce you to the hidden gems of San Francisco, highlighting the city’s best-kept secrets. Lands End This wild and rocky corner of San Francisco is well loved by residents but it might not be somewhere that instantly springs to mind when it comes to visiting the city. It should, however, as Lands End (within Golden Gate National Recreation Area) is able to oer stunning views of the water, pretty hillsides, glimpses of old shipwrecks, and a number of fascinating features such as ruins and a labyrinth, not to mention beautiful wildlife. David Shaw of Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy told us more about this must-visit spot: “Lands End is the rugged and wild edge of San Francisco where the Pacic Ocean meets a rocky shore just west of the Golden Gate. The views are spectacular looking out to the Pacic to Seal Rock and Mile Rock from the coastal trail and back toward the city in the other direction with views to the Golden Gate Bridge and the Marin Headlands. Because Lands End is outside the Golden Gate, it is possible to often see pilot whales, dolphins, migrating California gray whales, and humpback whales.

    Sept. 5, 2004---- SAN FRANCISCO -- The ups and downs of World War II were played out at the corner of California and Mason streets here on Nob Hill. The history is as cloudy as a third mai tai, but I have a theory. In 1939 the romantic Top of the Mark restaurant and lounge opened on the 19th floor of The Mark Hopkins Hotel, 999 California St. The lounge with the 360-degree view of San Francisco became a favorite place for Pacific-bound servicemen to share one last drink with friends and lovers. The Fairmont Hotel across the street at 950 Mason saw the high drama at the Top of the Mark, so in 1945 it turned its basement swimming pool into the S.S. Tonga tiki bar for servicemen returning from the Pacific. Tonga is the island in the heart of the South Pacific, east of Fiji and south of Samoa. The S.S. Tonga was one of America's first Polynesian themed restaurants and cocktail lounges. The dance floor was built on the remains from the deck of the S.S. Forrester, one of the last tall ships that sailed between San Francisco and the South Seas. After Don the Beachcombers and Trader Vics washed across America's shores in the 1950s, the restaurant was converted into The Tonga Room and Hurricane Bar. Thatched huts were then built around the room, surrounding the swimming pool. The Tonga Room is still going strong. Visitors still drink under the huts. There are 19 drinks on the bar menu and they include the power-packed Tonga Mai Tai and a Scorpion (rum and brandy mixed with fruit juices).
