The Innes Avenue Sidewalk Improvement Project will improve pedestrian safety and accessibility along Innes Avenue, between Arelious Walker and Donahue Street. Improvements include construction of 6 ADA compliant curb ramps, 400 feet of new pedestrian safety rockslide catchment fence, and nearly 450 linear feet of new sidewalk, the majority of which is entirely missing. Design is expected to be complete by Winter 2023, and the project is anticipated to be open for use by Fall 2025.

San Francisco Public Works has hired R&S Construction Management, Inc. to construct new curb ramps at intersections throughout San Francisco. This project will include demolishing existing curb ramps & curbs, constructing new, ADA-compliant curb ramps and reconstructing adjacent areas of the sidewalk and curb lane. Work will be taking place at the following intersections:

Alemany Boulevard, located beneath the Highway 280 and 101 interchange, is a heavily trafficked, auto-dominated corridor associated with freeway on- and off-ramps. The Alemany Interchange Improvement Project will deliver critical upgrades to improve safety, accessibility, and the overall appearance of the area. Pedestrians frequently travel between San Bruno Avenue and the northern side of Alemany, home to the Alemany Farmers Market.

Japantown’s Buchanan Mall is the pedestrian portion of Buchanan Street that runs for one block between Post and Sutter streets. Along with Peace Plaza, it’s the geographic and cultural heart of the neighborhood. The Mall is paved with a river of cobblestones, connecting two fountain installations, consisting of origami flower forms designed by renowned artist Ruth Asawa, and surrounded by low, circular stone walls.

San Francisco Public Works hired Hernandez Engineering to complete the Fern Street West Improvements Project. The project limits were Fern Street between Polk Street and Van Ness Avenue. Construction began in April 2022 and was completed in October 2022.
