  5. COVID-Era Congestion Tracker and COVID-19 Recovery Scenario Analysis - INFORMATION*
    The recent shelter-in-place orders have rapidly changed traffic patterns and congestion. The Transportation Authority's COVID-Era Congestion Tracker (covid-congestion.sfcta.org) is an interactive map of critical roadways in San Francisco that provides decision-makers with the ability to monitor weekly changes in roadway congestion in order to identify emerging congestion "hot spots" and identify appropriate management strategies. The congestion tracker also allows users to view automobile speed data for the city overall or for particular segments, and to compare current speeds to pre-COVID conditions. We will provide an overview of the tracker and our other work to evaluate different COVID scenarios that incorporate changes in employment and workforce participation, transit service levels, work-from-home trends, and public willingness to ride transit.
