Introduction

Divisadero Street between Turk and Haight streets is a segment of San Francisco’s Vision Zero High Injury Network.The SFMTA’s Divisadero Intersection Improvements project improved ten intersections on this segment of Divisadero.

The goal of this project was to make Divisadero and surrounding streets safer for all modes of travel.
