District 9

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.

Project Description

San Francisco Public Works and the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission have partnered to complete infrastructure improvements on several blocks in the Bernal Heights neighborhood. Our partnership allows us to minimize impacts to the public by consolidating our work whenever possible. This project will include sewer main replacement/rehabilitation, curb ramp installation, street base repairs, grinding (removal of existing asphalt) and repaving and concrete street reconstruction.

San Francisco Public Works has contracted with Esquivel Grading & Paving, Inc. to renovate the roadway at various locations in neighborhoods as part of the Various Locations No. 47, Pavement Renovations Project. The scope of work will include sidewalk, curb ramp construction, concrete road base repair and final roadway paving.  The work under this contract will occur between November 2021 and June 2022.
 

Project Description

Project Description
San Francisco Public Works, in partnership with the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) and the San Francisco County Transportation Authority, is undertaking improvements to the bike and pedestrian pathway in the area known as the “Hairball”—a complex network of bridges and ramps connecting to Highway 101 at the intersection of Cesar Chavez Street, Bayshore Boulevard, and Potrero Avenue.
 

The San Francisco Public Library is currently renovating the Mission Branch Library. On behalf of the Library,  Public Works initiated a feasibility study that provided a needs assessment and analyzed the cost and practicality of design options. The study recommended moving forward with renovation of the Mission Branch Library, given that this branch lacks space to hold quality programs and the building’s systems are at the end of their service life. The library, one of seven Carnegie branches, opened in 1915 and was designed by G.

The Potrero Avenue Roadway Improvement Project is a collaboration between neighbors and several city agencies (Public Works, SFMTA, and PUC) to improve safety for people walking and biking, maximize infrastructure upgrades in the area, and to help beautify Potrero Avenue. The final design for roadway improvements is the result of five community workshops, valuable public input, and the neighborhood voting for their preferred option for transforming Potrero Avenue.

In 2006, the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency (Agency) and Public Works completed public streetscape improvements on Sixth Street, between Market and Harrison Streets, by widening sidewalks, planting new street trees and installing ornamental street lights. Through discussions with the South of Market Project Area Committee (SOMPAC), Agency staff and Public Works have identified an initial set of alleyways for improvements.
