Mission Street and Geneva Avenue Infrastructure Improvement Project
Project Update (June 2024):
During the grinding phase (removal of existing asphalt from the roadway), access to enter and exit driveways will be maintained, however long delays should be expected if crews are working on the lane closest to your driveway. Please allow extra travel time.
During the paving phase, driveway access may be delayed while crews work on the lane closest to your driveway. The contractor will apply a tack coat (liquid asphalt) to the roadway in advance of the hot asphalt. The tack coat promotes bonding between the concrete street base and the hot asphalt. During application of the tack coat and new asphalt, driveway access will not be possible until the asphalt cools-down. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Project Description:
San Francisco Public Works, the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA), and the San Francisco Public Utilities are partnering to bring safety improvements and infrastructure upgrades to the Excelsior and Outer Mission neighborhoods. The Mission Street and Geneva Avenue Infrastructure Improvement Project includes approximately forty sidewalk bulb-outs, upgraded traffic signals at twenty locations, sewer main replacement at ten locations, concrete street base replacement work and street repaving throughout the project area. The project limits are:
- Geneva Avenue: Prague Street to Mission Street
- Mission Street: Geneva Avenue to Highway 280 Overpass (Trumbull Street)
Mission Street and Geneva Avenue are part of San Francisco's Vision Zero High Injury Network - the 13% of city streets where 75% of the severe and fatal collisions occur. The City and County of San Francisco adopted Vision Zero as a policy in 2014, committing to build better and safer streets, educate the public on traffic safety, enforce traffic laws, and adopt policy changes that save lives. The goal is to create a culture that prioritizes traffic safety and to ensure that mistakes on our roadways don’t result in serious injuries or death. The result of this collaborative, citywide effort will be safer, more livable streets as we work to eliminate traffic fatalities.
Once construction starts, we'll be sending regular e-updates to inform neighbors about the current and upcoming scopes of work, possible impacts, weekend work, completed project milestones, etc. Neighbors interested in receiving e-updates could SIGN-UP HERE.
